is a parabola (looks like the letter U).
The letter a represents the coefficient of

and it controls two things (1) how wide or narrow the parabola is and (2) whether it is concave up (like a U) or concave down (like an up-side-down).
The absolute value of a (the number without the sign) controls how wide or narrow it is. If the absolute value is a fraction less than 1 the graph gets wider. The smaller the absolute value of the fraction the wider the graph gets.
If the absolute value of a is greater than 1 the graph gets narrower (it gets skinnier). The bigger the absolute value the narrower the graph.
So, if all the graphs look like a U (concave up) then the one with the smallest a is the one that is the widest.
The a also controls whether the graph is concave up or concave down. If a is negative
If a is negative the graph is concave down so any graph that is concave down has a smaller value of a than any graph that is concave up. However, if the graph is concave down the one with the smallest a would be the most narrow one.
So to find the one with the smallest a...
If they are all concave up (like a U) pick the widest one
and
If they are not all concave up pick the narrowest one that is concave down (looks like an upside down U)
Answer: 0.29 (29%)
Step-by-step explanation:
women who gave birth at a certain hospital last year:
over 30 years old - 0.48
unmarried - 0.46
over 30 or unmarried (or both) - 0.65
what is the probability that a woman who gave birth at the hospital was both unmarried and over 30 ?
We know that
P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A or B)
P(+30 and unmarried) = P(+30) + P(unmarried) - P(+30 or unmarried)
P(+30 and unmarried) = 0.48 + 0.46 - 0.65 = 0.29
7y. the 7x cancels out and if u distribute, it's 7y.
1/10 of 3000 is 300 and there is no simplest form to it.
Answer:
A or C
Step-by-step explanation:
because if you add 7 and 1, it gives you 8.
but on the other hand, 7-7 is 0, so it is either A or C
