Hi! Basically, the problem is asking us to find the values of a, b, and c in the equation f(x)=a x^{2} +bx+c. Since we have three unknowns, we just need three equations. We can find these equations by using the data in the table.

First let's plug x = 0 and f(x) = 0.
0=0+0+c
c=0

Now that we know c, it's time to pick two more pairs. Let's plug-in (2,78) and (4,152)

78=4a+2b
152=16a+4b

Before proceeding with the process of eliminating one variable, let us first reduce both equations to their lowest terms. We divide the first equation by 2 and we divide the second one by 4.

39=2a+b
38=4a+b

Next, we subtract equation 2 from equation 1.

1=-2a
a=-0.5

Finally, we substitute the value of a to equation 2 to get the value of b.

38=4(-0.5)+b
b=40

Therefore, the function should be f(x)=-0.5 x^{2} +40x

Anyone I need help with this problem plss

Answer:

About 1.23 standard deviation above the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

From what we have here, we need to calculate the difference between the given value and the mean and divide by the standard deviation

That would be through calculating the z score as follows;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

where x is the given value

z-score = (87-71)/13 = 1.23

Since the score is bigger than the mean, the correct choice here is that the score is about 1.23 standard deviation above the mean
