Answer:

Option b) 6-10 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that X, the weight of  toy American Eskimo dog has mean of 8 pounds with a standard deviation of 1 pound

For 95% of the dogs according to normal distribution would lie between 2 std deviations on either side of the mean.

i.e. lower bound= Mean- 2 std deviation = 8-2 =6

Upper bound = Mean +2 std dev = 8+2 =10

Hence range of weights would be

6-10 lbs

Option b is the answer

Evaluate the function.
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

f ( x) = 2 x 2 + 8 x

Find f(−1)

replace x by its value which is -1

so:

f ( x) =  2 x 2 + 8 x

f ( -1) =  2  (-1)*2 + 8 (-1)

f(-1)= -2*2 + (-8)

f(-1)= -4 -8

f(-1)= -12

the value ax^2 + bx is 5 when x=1, and is equal to 0 when x=1.what are the values of a and b. explain how u arrived at your answ
Katena32 [7]

Answer: a = 1.25, b = 2.5, c = 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Use vertex form and substitute a point into it (1, 5)

5 = a(1 + 1)^2 + 0

5 = a(2)^2 + 0

5 = 4a

a = 5/4

y = 5/4 (x + 1)^2

y = 5/4 (x^2 + 2x + 1)

1.25 x^2 + 2.5x + 5/4

Is there a "c" value otherwise it's not possible

Graph a right triangle with the two points 4,5 and -4,8​
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write points using parentheses:  (4, 5) and (-4, 8}.

​

(4, 5) is in the 1st quadrant and (-4, 8} is in the 2nd. Reversing the order of these two points yields (-4, 8) and (4, 5).  From this we can see that while moving from (-4, 8) to (4, 5) involves following a line with negative slope (because the y-coordinate decreases from 8 to 5 as the x-coordinate increases from -4 to +4).  This sloping line is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  Draw a vertical line segment through (-4, 8) and a horizontal line segment through (4, 5).  This hypotenuse, the vertical line segment and the horizontal line segment are the boundaries of the desired right triangle.
