Answer:

$b=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is $f(x)=\frac{1}{4}x^2+bx+10$ .

When we compare to $ax^2+bx+=0$ , we have

$a=\frac{1}{4}$ and c=10

The equation of the axis of symmetry of a vertical parabola is:

$x=-\frac{b}{2a}$

Also from the question the axis of symmetry is x=6

We substitute the values to get:

$6=-\frac{b}{2*\frac{1}{4}}$

$6=-\frac{b}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$b=-\frac{1}{2}*6$

$b=-3$

25% of American households have only dogs (one or more dogs) 15% of American households have only cats (one or more cats) 10% of

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

a) P=0.2503

b) P=0.2759

c) P=0.3874

d) P=0.2051

Step-by-step explanation:

We have this information:

25% of American households have only dogs (one or more dogs)

15% of American households have only cats (one or more cats)

10% of American households have dogs and cats (one or more of each)

50% of American households do not have any dogs or cats.

The sample is n=10

a) Probability that exactly 3 have only dogs (p=0.25)

$P(x=3)=\binom{10}{3}0.25^30.75^7=120*0.01563*0.13348=0.25028$

b) Probability that exactly 2 has only cats (p=0.15)

$P(x=2)=\binom{10}{2}0.15^20.85^8=45*0.0225*0.27249=0.2759$

c) Probability that exactly 1 has cats and dogs (p=0.1)

$P(x=1)=\binom{10}{1}0.10^10.90^0=10*0.1*0.38742=0.38742$

d) Probability that exactly 4 has neither cats or dogs (p=0.5)

$P(x=4)=\binom{10}{4}0.50^40.50^6=210*0.0625*0.01563=0.20508$

You are looking at the New York ball drop on New Year’s Eve at a distance of 100 m away from the base of the structure. If the b

Fofino [41]

The question is an illustration of related rates.

The rate of change between you and the ball is 0.01 rad per second

I added an attachment to illustrate the given parameters.

The representations on the attachment are:

$\mathbf{x = 100\ m}$

$\mathbf{\frac{dy}{dt} = 2\ ms^{-1}}$ ---- the rate

$\mathbf{\theta = \frac{\pi}{4}}$

First, we calculate the vertical distance (y) using tangent ratio

$\mathbf{\tan(\theta) = \frac{y}{x}}$

Substitute 100 for x

$\mathbf{y = 100\tan(\theta) }$

$\mathbf{\tan(\theta) = \frac{y}{100}}$

Differentiate both sides with respect to time (t)

$\mathbf{ \sec^2(\theta) \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot \frac{dy}{dt}}$

Substitute values for the rates and $\mathbf{\theta }$

$\mathbf{ \sec^2(\pi/4) \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot 2}$

This gives

$\mathbf{ (\sqrt 2)^2 \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot 2}$

$\mathbf{ 2 \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot 2}$

Divide both sides by 2

$\mathbf{ \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} }$

$\mathbf{ \frac{d\theta}{dt} = 0.01 }$

Hence, the rate of change between you and the ball is 0.01 rad per second

Jacob distributed a survey to his fellow students asking them how many hours they spent on the Internet in the past day. He also

Anna35 [415]

The linear equation B. y = -x +7.5 best describes the given model. The mood rating for a student that spent 5.5 hours online would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; We plot the points that fall on the line and that lie on an exact x or y coordinate. The following 4 points are plotted (0.5, 7), (2, 5.5), (2.5, 5) and (3.5, 4). We substitute the values of x in the given equations to see which best describes the model.

Step 2; When y = x + 7.5, we get the coordinates as (0.5, 8), (2, 9.5), (2.5, 10) and (3.5, 11).

When y = -x + 7.5, the coordinates are (0.5, 7), (2, 5.5), (2.5, 5) and (3.5, 4).

When y = $\frac{-1x}{2}$ + 7.5, the coordinates are (0.5, 7.25), (2, 6.5), (2.5, 6.25) and (3.5, 5.75).

So equation 2 has the closest values to the actaul graph.

Step 3; By substituting x = 5.5, y = -(5.5) + 7.5 = 7.5 - 5.5 = 2.
