Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have a vertical directrix, the equation of the parabola is
Where p is the distance from the vertex to the directrix.
or the distance from the vertex to the focus.
Since we have a sideways parabola, let use the point for the directrix is (-6,0). So let find the midpoint of (-6,0) and (6,0). That would be our vertex.
So our vertex is (0,0).
So our equation become
The distance from the focus and directrix is 6.
So p=6.
So p is 6.
Since p is 6,
This is how you would solve the question.
We will begin by grouping the x terms together and the y terms together so we can complete the square and see what we're looking at.
. Now we need to move that 36 over by adding to isolate the x and y terms.
. Now we need to complete the square on the x terms and the y terms. Can't do that, though, til the leading coefficients on the squared terms are 1's. Right now they are 9 and 4. Factor them out:
. Now let's complete the square on the x's. Our linear term is 4. Half of 4 is 2, and 2 squared is 4, so add it into the parenthesis. BUT don't forget about the 9 hanging around out front there that refuses to be forgotten. It is a multiplier. So we are really adding in is 9*4 which is 36. Half the linear term on the y's is 3. 3 squared is 9, but again, what we are really adding in is -4*9 which is -36. Putting that altogether looks like this thus far:
. The right side simplifies of course to just 36. Since we have a minus sign between those x and y terms, this is a hyperbola. The hyperbola has to be set to equal 1. So we divide by 36. At the same time we will form the perfect square binomials we created for this very purpose on the left:
. Since the 9 is the bigger of the 2 values there, and it is under the y terms, our hyperbola has a horizontal transverse axis. a^2=4 so a=2; b^2=9 so b=3. Our asymptotes have the formula for the slope of
which for us is a slope of negative and positive 3/2. Using the slope and the fact that we now know the center of the hyperbola to be (2, 3), we can solve for b and rewrite the equations of the asymptotes.
give us a b of 0 so that equation is y = 3/2x. For the negative slope, we have
which gives us a b value of 6. That equation then is y = -3/2x + 6. And there you go!
Answer:
a) X: number of years of education
b) Sample mean = 13.5, Sample standard deviation = 0.4
c) Sample mean = 13.5, Sample standard deviation = 0.2
d) Decrease the sample standard deviation
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Mean, μ = 13.5 years
Standard deviation,σ = 2.8 years
a) random variable X
X: number of years of education
Central limit theorem:
If large random samples are drawn from population with mean 
and standard deviation 
, then the distribution of sample mean will be normally distributed with mean and standard deviation 
b) mean and the standard for a random sample of size 49
c) mean and the standard for a random sample of size 196
d) Effect of increasing n
As the sample size increases, the standard error that is the sample standard deviation decreases. Thus, quadrupling sample size will half the standard deviation.
Let the two numbers be x and y, then,
xy = -12 . . . (1)
x + y = -10 . . . (2)
From (2), x = -10 - y . . . (3)
Putting (3) into (1), gives
(-10 - y)y = -12
-10y - y^2 = -12
y^2 + 10y - 12 = 0
Therefore, the two numbers are
and
