Question attached plz answer

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

x = - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sketch represents

y = x² + bx + c

The graph crosses the y- axis at (0 , - 14), thus c = - 14

y = x² + bx - 14

Given the graph crosses the x- axis at (2, 0), then

0 = 2² + 2b - 14

0 = 4 + 2b - 14 = 2b - 10 ( add 10 to both sides )

10 = 2b ( divide both sides by 2 )

b = 5

y = x² + 5x - 14 ← represents the graph

let y = 0 , then

x² + 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 7)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

The x- intercepts are x = - 7 and x = 2

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is midway between the x- intercepts, thus

the x- coordinate of the turning point is $\frac{-7+2}{2}$ = $\frac{-5}{2}$ = - 2.5

Compare the scores: a score of 75 on a test with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 8 and a score of 75 on a test with a m

LiRa [457]

Answer:

The Zscore for both test is the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

TEST 1:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 65

Standard deviation (s) = 8

TEST 2:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 70

Standard deviation (s) = 4

USING the relation to obtain the standardized score :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

TEST 1:

Zscore = (75 - 65) / 8

Zscore = 10/8

Zscore = 1.25

TEST 2:

Zscore = (75 - 70) / 4

Zscore = 5/4

Zscore = 1.25

The standardized score for both test is the same.

Prove the following by induction. In each case, n is apositive integer.<br> 2^n ≤ 2^n+1 - 2^n-1 -1.

frutty [35]

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

We are asked to prove by the method of mathematical induction that:

$2^n\leq 2^{n+1}-2^{n-1}-1$

where n is a positive integer.

Let us take n=1

then we have:

$2^1\leq 2^{1+1}-2^{1-1}-1\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 2^2-2^{0}-1\\\\i.e.\\2\leq 4-1-1\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 4-2\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 2$

Hence, the result is true for n=1.

Let us assume that the result is true for n=k

i.e.

$2^k\leq 2^{k+1}-2^{k-1}-1$

Now, we have to prove the result for n=k+1

i.e.

<u>To prove:</u> $2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-1$

Let us take n=k+1

Hence, we have:

$2^{k+1}=2^k\cdot 2\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2\cdot (2^{k+1}-2^{k-1}-1)$

( Since, the result was true for n=k )

Hence, we have:

$2^{k+1}\leq 2^{k+1}\cdot 2-2^{k-1}\cdot 2-2\cdot 1\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{k-1+1}-2\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-2$

Also, we know that:

$-2$

(

Since, for n=k+1 being a positive integer we have:

$2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}>0$ )

Hence, we have finally,

$2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-1$

Hence, the result holds true for n=k+1

Hence, we may infer that the result is true for all n belonging to positive integer.

i.e.

$2^n\leq 2^{n+1}-2^{n-1}-1$ where n is a positive integer.
