PLEASE HELP!! Identify the minium value of the function
1 answer:
Because this is a positive parabola, it opens upwards, like a cup, and the vertex dictates what the minimum value of the function is. In order to determine the vertex, I recommend completing the square. Do that by first setting the function equal to 0 and then moving the 9 to the other side by subtraction. So far: 
. Now, to complete the square, take half the linear term, square it, and add that number to both sides. Our linear term is 6. Half of 6 is 3 and 3 squared is 9. So add 9 to both sides. 
. The right side reduces to 0, and the left side simplifies to the perfect square binomial we created while completing this process. 
. Move the 0 back over and the vertex is clear now. It is (-3, 0). Therefore, 0 is the minimum point on your graph. The first choice above is the one you want.

Answer:
a. 85974 m²
b. 17,194,800 AED
c. 18,450 AED
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of the quadrilateral are given as follows;
AB = 192 m
BC = 576 m
CD = 228 m
DA = 480 m
Length of a diagonal AC = 672 m
a. We note that the area of the quadrilateral consists of the area of the two triangles (ΔABC and ΔACD) formed on opposite sides of the diagonal
The semi-perimeter, s₁, of ΔABC is found as follows;
s₁ = (AB + BC + AC)/2 = (192 + 576 + 672)/2 = 1440/2 = 720
The area, A₁, of ΔABC is given as follows;
= 6912·√(55) m²
Similarly, area, A₂, of ΔACD is given as follows;
The semi-perimeter, s₂, of ΔABC is found as follows;
s₂ = (AC + CD + D)/2 = (672 + 228 + 480)/2 = 690 m
We therefore have;
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral ABCD = A₁ + A₂ = 6912×√(55) + 1260·√(759) = 85973.71 m² ≈ 85974 m² to the nearest meter square
b. Whereby the cost of 1 meter square land = 200 AED, we have;
Total cost of the land = 200 × 85974 = 17,194,800 AED
c. Whereby the cost of fencing 1 m = 12.50 AED, we have;
Total perimeter of the land = 576 + 192 + 480 + 228 = 1,476 m
The total cost of the fencing the land = 12.5 × 1476 = 18,450 AED
Answer:
0.0479 = 4.79% probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote
Step-by-step explanation:
For each voter, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will vote, or they will not. The probability of a voter voting is independent of any other voter, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
In which is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
And p is the probability of X happening.
70% of all eligible voters will vote in the next presidential election.
This means that
20 eligible voters were randomly selected from the population of all eligible voters.
This means that
What is the probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote?
This is:
In which
The probability of 5 or less voting is very close to 0, so they will not affect the outcome. Then
0.0479 = 4.79% probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote
