Write 3x^2-18x-6 in vertex form

The standard form of a quadratic equation is \displaystyle{ y=ax^2+bx+c, while the vertex form is:

                      y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

What we want is to write \displaystyle{ y=3x^2-18x-6 as y=a(x-h)^2+k

First, we note that all the three terms have a factor of 3, so we factorize it and write:

\displaystyle{ y=3(x^2-6x-2).


Second, we notice that x^2-6x are the terms produced by (x-3)^2=x^2-6x+9, without the 9. So we can write:

x^2-6x=(x-3)^2-9, and substituting in \displaystyle{ y=3(x^2-6x-2) we have:

\displaystyle{ y=3(x^2-6x-2)=3[(x-3)^2-9-2]=3[(x-3)^2-11].

Finally, distributing 3 over the two terms in the brackets we have:

y=3[x-3]^2-33.


Answer: y=3(x-3)^2-33

How does 8 x 2 1/3 compare to 8
Temka [501]
<span>D) Greater than 8 because you are multiplying by a number greater than 1.

8 * 2 1/3 = 8 * 7/3 = 56/3 = 18.67
& we know, 18.67 > 8

Hope this helps!</span>

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \geq 45%    

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p < 45%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the proportion of women in similar sales positions across the country in 2004 is less than 45%.

The collected random sample of size 50 showed that only 18 were women.

<u><em>Let p = proportion of women in similar sales positions across the country in 2004</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \geq 45%    

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p < 45%

Here, <u><em>null hypothesis states that</em></u> the proportion of women in similar sales positions across the country in 2004 is more than or equal to 45%.

On the other hand, <u><em>alternate hypothesis states that</em></u> the proportion of women in similar sales positions across the country in 2004 is less than 45%.

The test statistics that would be used here is One-sample z proportion test statistics, i.e;

                        T.S.  =  \frac{\hat p -p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hta p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

Hence, the above hypothesis is appropriate for the given situation.
