x2 - 12x - 12 = 0
(x - 6)2 - 48 = 0
(x - 6)2 = 48
Hence, the answer is (B).
<h3>Answer:</h3>
D
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The graph of |x| opens upward. Your graph is vertically stretched by a factor of 3 and translated downward 1 unit.
Graphs B and D open upward, but only graph D is translated downward (not upward, as in B).
Answer: Question 1.1: It is 1.5 standard deviations away from the mean.
Our value of 26 is 6 units about the mean of 20. If each standard deviation is 4, we just divide 6 by 4. This gives us the number of standard deviations.
Question 2.2 The correct answer is -0.52
If we are 0.52 standard deviations below the mean, then our z-score is simply -0.52. The definition of a z-score is the number of standard deviations from the mean.
