Rewrite in standard form and use this form to find the vertex
(h,k).(0,7)
then just graph the (0,7) the just down cross the line down like a triangle
(X-3)(X+1)=0
X-3=0
X=3
X+1=0
X=-1
Answer:
Jake is 9, and Jake's dad is 43.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, let's start off by putting a variable for Jack's age, A.
We know that Jack's father is 2 less than 5 times, so we can write his as 5x -2.
Now let's make an equation:
52 = x + 5x - 2
We need to isolate the x-values so we need to add 2 on both sides:
54= x + 5x
No we need to add the like terms:
54 = 6x
Finally, we just divide by 6 on each side.
Now we know X = 9 but we're not done yet :)
So because Jake's dad is almost 5 times as much, we first multiply Jack's age by 5. We get 45 but we need to subtract 2 which leaves us with 43.
A suitable probability calculator will tell you that probabilty is about 25.9%.

The normalcdf function on this calculator gives an area between a lower and upper limit. If the upper limit is more than about 8 standard deviations above the mean, the 10th decimal place is unaffected. Since the standard deviation here is about 5, we need to have an upper limit that is about 40 above the mean of about 30. We have chosen 80 as a nice round number and to give a little more margin.
