If you want to do it by hand, you can write the equation
.. y = ax^2 +bx +c
and substitute three of the given points. Then solve the resulting three linear equations for a, b, and c.
.. 4 = a +b +c
.. 7 = 4a +2b +c
.. 12 = 9a +3b +c
Subtracting the first equation from the other two reduces this to
.. 3 = 3a +b
.. 8 = 8a +2b
The latter can be divided by 2, so reduces to
.. 4 = 4a +b
Subtracting the first of the reduced equations from this, you have
.. 1 = a
so
.. 3 = 3*1 +b
.. 0 = b
and
.. 4 = a + b + c = 1 + 0 + c
.. 3 = c
And your equation is
.. y = x^2 +3 . . . . . . as shown previously
<span>Naming of rays
Rays are commonly named in two ways:
By two points.
In the figure at the top of the page, the ray would be called AB because starts at point A and passes through B on it's way to infinity. Recall that points are usually labelled with single upper-case (capital) letters. There is a symbol for this which looks like this: AB This is read as "ray AB". The arrow over the two letters indicates it is a ray, and the arrow direction indicates that A is the point where the ray starts.
By a single letter. (I have not seen this done.)
The ray above would be called simply "q". By convention, this is usually a single lower case (small) letter. This is normally used when the ray does not pass through another labeled point.</span>
Solution :
The null and alternative hypothesis is given by


Assume that the level of significance, α = 0.05
The t-test statistics is, t = 1.484
Degree of freedom :
df = n - 1
= 14 - 1
= 13
The P-value is given by
P-value = 2P (T>|t|)
= 2P(T>|1.484|)
= 2P(T>1.484)
= 2(=T.DIST.RT(1.484,13))
= 0.05
Answer:
(6x^2 - 5)(x^2 + 2).
Step-by-step explanation:
6x^4 - 5x^2 + 12x^2 - 10
= 6x^4 + 12x^2 - 5x^2 - 10
= 6x^2(x^ + 2) - 5(x^2 + 2)
(x^2 + 2) is common so we have:
(6x^2 - 5)(x^2 + 2).
