Form quadratic functions given the following information: Zeroes at 4 and –2, f(0)=4

Mathematics
1 answer:
laila [671]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

f(x)=-0.5x^2+x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A quadratic function in factored form is equal to

f(x)=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)

where

a is the leading coefficient

x_1 and x_2 are the zeroes of the function

substitute the given values

f(x)=a(x-4)(x+2)

Find the value of a

Remember that

For x=0 ----> f(0)=4

substitute

4=a(0-4)(0+2)

4=a(-8)\\a=-0.5

so

f(x)=-0.5(x-4)(x+2)

f(x)=-0.5(x^2+2x-4x-8)

f(x)=-0.5(x^2-2x-8)

f(x)=-0.5x^2+x+4

7. (ASV, Exercise 2.20 ) - 3 points. A fair die is rolled repeatedly. Use precise notation of probabilities of events and random
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

0.9646 ; 0.5685

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

P(obtaining 3 on a die roll) = 1/6 = 0.1667

Obtaining 3 at most 2 times in five trials

Using binomial distribution formula :

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

n = 5 ;, p = 0.1667

P(x ≤ 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)

Using the binomial probability :

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.4019 + 0.4019 + 0.1608

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.9646

B.) using geometric distribution :

(1 - p)^x-1 * p

P ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x ≤ 4) = 1 - p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x =2) + p(x = 3)

1 - (0.1667 + 0.1157+0.0965+0.0804)

= 0.5685

Pls help !!!!! i'll mark brainliest
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Last year there were 550 bison in the heard and this year it is 10% larger.

10% is also 10/100 or 0.10

To find 10% of the heard last year

550 x.0.10 = 55. To find the number in the heard this year add 550 (last year) + 55 (10% growth) = 605 or,

to find how many there are now last years heard size was 100% of the heard or 1.00. To find any percent more add it to 1.00 and multiply by the starting amount.

550 x 1.10 = 605

For the second example.

If there are 550 bison in the heard this year, and this year was a decrease of 10% from last year we can express last year's number like this.

550 = (x - (x * 0.10)) simplify;

550 = 1x - 0.10x

550 = 0.90x

Divide both sides by 0.90

x = 611.11 but it's hard to have 0.11 of a bison so realistically 611 bison last year. Subtract 10% or 61 and you indeed have 550 this year.
