F(x)=x^(2)+6x-78 completing the square fill in the blanks: f(x)=(x+blank)^2+blank

1 answer:

8 0

The blank: $f(x) = (x+3)^2-78+9$
You can combine the negative 78 and 9 if you want to, but that should be the next step for that problem.

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line passing through the given points.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

The slope is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (-5-1)/(4-2)

= -6/2

= -3

PSYCHO15rus [73]

The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.

Question:

The attached Excel file 2013 NCAA BB Tournament shows the salaries paid to the coaches of 62 of the 68 teams in the 2013 NCAA basketball tournament (not all private schools report their coach's salaries). Consider these 62 salaries to be a sample from the population of salaries of all 346 NCAA Division I basketball coaches.

Question 1. Use the 62 salaries from the TOTAL PAY column to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean salary of all basketball coaches in NCAA Division I.

xbar = $1,465,752

SD = $1,346,046.2

lower bound of confidence interval ________

upper bound of confidence interval _______

Question 2. Coach Mike Krzyzewski's high salary is an outlier and could be significantly affecting the confidence interval results. Remove Coach Krzyzewski's salary from the data and recalculate the 95% confidence interval using the remaining 61 salaries.

xbar = $1,371,191

SD = $1,130,666.5

lower bound of confidence interval _________

upper bound of confidence interval. ________

Answer:

Question 1:

lower bound of confidence interval = $1,124,027

upper bound of confidence interval = $1,807,477

Question 2:

lower bound of confidence interval = $1,081,512

upper bound of confidence interval = $1,660,870

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

The sample mean salary of 62 couches is

$\bar{x} = 1,465,752$

The standard deviation of mean salary is

$s = 1,346,046.2$

The confidence interval for the mean salary of all basketball coaches is given by

$CI = \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } )$

Where $\bar{x}$ is the sample mean, n is the sample size, s is the sample standard deviation and $t_{\alpha/2}$ is the t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level.

The t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level is

Significance level = α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 62 - 1 = 61

From the t-table at α = 0.025 and DoF = 61

t-score = 1.999

So the required 95% confidence interval is

$CI = \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\\\CI = 1,465,752 \pm 1.999 \cdot (\frac{1,346,046.2}{\sqrt{62} } ) \\\\CI = 1,465,752 \pm 1.999 \cdot (170948.04 ) \\\\CI = 1,465,752 \pm 341,725 \\\\LCI = 1,465,752 - 341,725 = 1,124,027 \\\\UCI = 1,465,752 + 341,725 = 1,807,477\\\\$

Question 2:

After removing the Coach Krzyzewski's salary from the data

The sample mean salary of 61 couches is

$\bar{x} = 1,371,191$

The standard deviation of the mean salary is

$s = 1,130,666.5$

The t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level is

Significance level = α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 61 - 1 = 60

From the t-table at α = 0.025 and DoF = 60

t-score = 2.001

So the required 95% confidence interval is

$CI = \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\\\CI = 1,371,191 \pm 2.001 \cdot (\frac{1,130,666.5}{\sqrt{61} } ) \\\\CI = 1,371,191 \pm 2.001 \cdot (144767 ) \\\\CI = 1,371,191 \pm 289,678.8 \\\\LCI = 1,371,191 - 289,678.8 = 1,081,512 \\\\UCI = 1,371,191 + 289,678.8 = 1,660,870\\\\$

Three dice are going to be rolled. What is the probability that the first die rolled is a 1, the second die rolled is a 2, and t

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: The probability is 0.46%.

The chance of each given event happening is 1/6 because there are 6 different number on the dice and only 1 number is chose.

Therefore to find the combined probability, we have to multiply all the individual probabilities.

(1/6) x (1/6) x (1/6)

Or

(1/6)^3

The answer is about 0.46%,
