Answer:

  f(x) = -4/3x² -2/3x +10

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic regression function of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet can determine the equation for you.

___

Or, you can determine it yourself.

The equation can be written in the form ...

   f(x) = a(x +3)(x -5/2) . . . . . . . using the given x-intercepts

for some value of "a"

For x = 0, this must match the y-intercept.

  f(0) = a(0 +3)(0 -5/2) = 10

  -15/2·a = 10

  a = -20/15 = -4/3

So, the function can be written as ...

  f(x) = (-4/3)(x +3)(x -5/2)

or

  f(x) = -4/3x² -2/3x +10

-2/3( 2x^2 + x - 15) is the answer.

From the given x-intercepts, 2 factors of the equation will be (x + 3) and

(2x - 5):- So we can write:

At the y-intercept x = 0 so we have the equation a(0+3)(2(0) - 5) = 10  where a is a constant.

a * -15 = 10

a = -2/3  so the function is  (-2/3)(x  + 3)(2x - 5)

= -2/3( 2x^2 + x - 15).

Tell which term you would add or subtract on both sides side of the equation so that the variable is only on one side. 3y + 1 =
Pachacha [2.7K]
You would add 6 to both sides, leaving the equation to say 3y+7=4y

How do you find the median of these numbers $17.49, $11.29, $16.89, $11.79?
luda_lava [24]
Good morning, kid. It's quite easy.

The median is the middle number in a set after you place them least to greatest:

$11.29, $11.79, $16.89, $17.49

Well, since the numbers in the set are even, meaning there are only 4 numbers, we pick out the 2 middle numbers which would be, $11.79 and $16.89. Find the average (add them and divide by 2) and you'll get the median.

$11.79 + $16.89 = $28.68/2 = $14.34
Thus, the median is: $14.34
