we have that
standard form of equation for parabola:
(x-h)^2=-4p(y-k)
(h,k) --------->being the (x,y) coordinates of the vertex.
Parabola opens downwards because focus is below vertex on the axis of symmetry.
For given problem:
vertex: (-3,2)
axis of symmetry: x=-3
p=distance from vertex to focus on the axis of symmetry=2-(-1)=3
4p=12
Directrix: y=2+p=5
Equation:
(x+3)^2=-12(y-2)

the answer is (x+3)^2=-12(y-2)

shusha [124]

To find the value of y in the given equation, substitute the given value of x to the equation.

y = 4x + 2x² -x³

Substitute 2 for all x's.

y = 4(2) + 2(2²) - 2³ = 8

Therefore, the value of y is 8.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.

Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

For this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given as follows:

$\mu = 247, \sigma = 60$

For item a, the proportion is the p-value of Z when Z = 167, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (167 - 247)/60

Z = -1.33.

Z = -1.33 has a p-value of 0.0918.

Hence the percentage is of 9.18%.

For item b, the proportion is the p-value of Z when Z = 367, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (367 - 247)/60

Z = 2.

Z = 2 has a p-value of 0.9772.

Hence the percentage is of 97.72%.

For item c, the proportion is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 247, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (247 - 247)/60

Z = 0

Z = 0 has a p-value of 0.5.

Hence the percentage is of 50%.

For item d, the proportion is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 350, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (350 - 247)/60

Z = 1.72

Z = 1.72 has a p-value of 0.9573.

1 - 0.9573 = 0.0427.

Hence the percentage is of 4.27%.

For item e, the proportion is the p-value of Z when Z = 67, hence:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (67 - 247)/60

Z = -3.

Z = -3 has a p-value of 0.0013.

Hence the percentage is of 0.13%.

For item f, the proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 300 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 200, hence:

X = 300:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (300 - 247)/60

Z = 0.88.

Z = 0.88 has a p-value of 0.8106.

X = 200:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (200 - 247)/60

Z = -0.78.

Z = -0.78 has a p-value of 0.2177.

0.8106 - 0.2177 = 0.5929.

Hence the percentage is 59.29%.

For item g, the proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 400 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 360, hence:

X = 400:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (400 - 247)/60

Z = 2.55.

Z = 2.55 has a p-value of 0.9946.

X = 360:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

Z = (360 - 247)/60

Z = 1.88.

Z = 1.88 has a p-value of 0.97.

0.9946 - 0.97 = 0.0246

Hence the percentage is 2.46%.

For items h and i, the distribution is symmetric, hence median = mean and the percentages are of 50%.
