Answer:
I assume that this is a quadratic equation, something like:
y = -47*x^2 - 24x + (-36)
we can rewrite it as:
y = -47x^2 - 24x - 36
Ok, this is a quadratic equation and we want to find the maximum value.
First, you can notice that the leading coefficient is negative.
This means that the arms of the graph will open downwards.
Then we can conclude that the vertex of the equation is the "higher" point, thus the maximum value will be at the vertex.
Remember that for a general function
y = a*x^2 + b*x + c
the vertex is at:
x = -b/2a
So, in our case:
y = -47x^2 - 24x - 36
The vertex will be at:
x = -(-24)/(2*-47) = -12/47
So we just need to evaluate the function in this to find the maximum value.
Remember that "evaluating" the function in x = -12/47 means that we need to change al the "x" by the number (-12/47)
y = -47*(-12/47)^2 - 24*(-12/47) - 36
y = -32.94
That is the maximum value of the function, -32.94
I guess ping means point!
Slope = 5/3
The equation is y = 5/3 x
Answer:
-10 and 5
Step-by-step explanation:
because -10 x 5 = -50 and -10 + 5 = -5!
Answer:
95% Confidence interval for y
= (-9.804, -5.979)
Lower limit = -9.804
Upper limit = -5.979
Step-by-step explanation:
^y= 2.097x - 0.552
x = -3.5
Standard error = 0.976
Mathematically,
Confidence Interval = (Mean) ± (Margin of error)
Mean = 2.097x - 0.552 = (2.097×-3.5) - 0.552 = - 7.8915
(note that x=-3.5)
Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.
It is given mathematically as,
Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)
Critical value for 95% confidence interval = 1.960
Standard Error of the mean = 0.976
95% Confidence Interval = (Mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)]
CI = -7.8915 ± (1.960 × 0.976)
CI = -7.8915 ± 1.91296
95% CI = (-9.80446, -5.97854)
95% Confidence interval for y
= (-9.804, -5.979)
Hope this Helps!!!
The sum of a and b will be the coefficient of the x term of the trinomial. This can be seen below.
(x + a)(x + b)
= x² + bx + ax + ab
= x² + (a+b)x + ab
x is being multiplied by both a and b individually and the products are being added, so sum of a and b appears as the coefficient of x term.
Thus the answer to this question is option C
