$2x^2-2x-12=0\\\\2x^2+4x-6x-12=0\\\\2x(x+2)-6(x+2)=0\\\\(x+2)(2x-6)=0\iff x+2=0\ \vee\ 2x-6=0\\\\x=-2\ \vee\ x=3$

$2x^2-2x-12=0\\
2(x^2-x-6)=0\\
2(x^2-3x+2x-6)=0\\
2(x(x-3)+2(x-3))=0\\
2(x+2)(x-3)=0\\
x=-2 \vee x=3$

y, in terms of time the rain fell, x. The time is measured in hours after 12:00 P.M., with x=0 corresponding to the time 12:

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

At the time measurement starts i.e. initially there was no rainfall i.e. y value is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

y, in terms of time the rain fell, x.

Now, x is measured in hours after 12 : 00 P.M., with x = 0 corresponding to the time 12 : 00 P.M.

Therefore, the ordered pair (x,y) ≡ (0,0) means that at the time measurement starts i.e. at 12 : 00 P. M. there was no rainfall i.e. y value is zero. (Answer)

The data set represents a month-to-month progression of gasoline prices over the course of several months in an unspecified city

Tresset [83]

The quadratic regression equation for this data set is $\rm y=-0.143x^2+0.59x+2.82\\$ .

<h3>What is the general form of a quadratic equation?</h3>

The general form of the quadratic equation is given by;

$\rm ax^2+bx+c=0$

Where; a, b, and c are the constants.

x; 0 1 2 3 4 5

y; 2.82 3. 29 3. 46 3. 33 2. 88 2. 24

From the table when the value of x = 0 the value of y is 2.82.

Then,

$\rm y=ax^2+bx+c\\\\x=0\\\\2.82=a0^2+b(0)+c\\\\c=2.82$

From the table when the value of x = 3 the value of y is 3.33.

$\rm y=ax^2+bx+c\\\\x=3\\\\2.82=a(3)^2+b(3)+c\\\\9a+3b+2.82=2.82\\\\9a=-3b\\\\b=-3a\\\\$

From the table when the value of x = 5 the value of y is 2.24.

$\rm y=ax^2+bx+c\\\\x=3\\\\2.24=a(5)^2+(-3a)(5)+c\\\\25a-15a+2.82=2.24\\\\40a=2.24-2.82\\\\10a=-0.68\\\\a= \dfrac{-0.68}{10}\\\\a=-0.143$

And the value of b is;

$\rm b=3a\\\\b=3(-0.14)\\\\b=0.59$

Therefore,

The quadratic regression equation for this data set is;

$\rm y=ax^2+bx+c\\\\y=-0.143x^2+0.59x+2.82\\\\$

Hence, the quadratic regression equation for this data set is $\rm y=-0.143x^2+0.59x+2.82\\$ .
