The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

 f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

The coordinate (h, k) represents a parabola's vertex.

In order to convert a quadratic function in standard form to the vertex form, we can complete the square.

y = 2x² - 5x + 13

Move the constant, 13, to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides of the equation.

y - 13 = 2x² - 5x

Factor out 2 on the right side of the equation.

y - 13 = 2(x² - 2.5x)

Add (b/2)² to both sides of the equation, but remember that since we factored 2 out on the right side of the equation we have to multiply (b/2)² by 2 again on the left side.

y - 13 + 2(2.5/2)² = 2(x² - 2.5x + (2.5/2)²)

y - 13 + 3.125 = 2(x² - 2.5x + 1.5625)

Add the constants on the left and factor the expression on the right to a perfect square.

y - 9.875 = 2(x - 1.25)²

Now, we need y to be by itself again so add 9.875 back to both sides of the equation to move it back to the right side.

y = 2(x - 1.25)² + 9.875

Vertex: (1.25, 9.875)

Solution: y = 2(x - 1.25)² + 9.875

Or if you prefer fractions

y = 2(x - 5/4)² + 79/8

What happens to the width of a confidence interval for a population mean if the level of confidence is increased without changin
natulia [17]

Answer: If the level of confidence is increased without changing the sample size then<em> </em><u><em>The margin of error will decrease because the critical value will decrease. The decreased margin of error will cause the confidence interval to be narrower.</em></u>

where;

<em>Margin of error = Critical value × Standard deviation</em>

<em>Here, it can be duly noted that Margin of error has a positive relation with critical value, i.e </em><u><em>The margin of error will decrease because the critical value will decrease.</em></u>

<u><em>whereas;</em></u>

The confidence interval is  <em>the value  ±  the margin of error.</em>

<em>Therefore, </em><u><em>the decreased margin of error will cause the confidence interval to be narrower.</em></u>

E. Solve the Inequality

        - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

              Solve the Inequality.

\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}

              x<-4

\blue{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{How\:to\:Solve:-}}}}

                      First, add 6x on both sides:

-2x+3+6x<-13

Add the x's:

4x+3<-13

Now, subtract 3 on both sides:

4x<-13-3

4x<-16

Divide by 4 on both sides:

x<-4

So the values of x that are less than -4 will make the given inequality true.

<h3>Good luck.</h3>

Can any math genius help me with this
vovangra [49]

<em>Here's</em><em> </em><em>my</em><em> </em><em>working</em><em> </em><em>for</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>You</em><em> </em><em>need</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>find</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>exterior</em><em> </em><em>angle</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>then</em><em> </em><em>divide</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>360</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>find</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>number</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>:</em>

<em>Applying</em><em> </em><em>these</em><em> </em><em>steps</em><em> </em><em>:</em><em> </em>

180 (Interior Angles) - 162 = 18 (Exterior angle)

360 ÷ 18 is<em> </em><em>20</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em> </em>

A snail can crawl 2/5 of a meter in a minute.
gavmur [86]
For 2/5 meter, it takes = 1 min.
For 1 meter, it is = 5/2 min.

Now, for 6 meters, it would be: 5/2 * 6 = 30/2 = 15

In short, Your Answer would be 15 minutes

Hope this helps!
