Answer:

f(x) = 4*(x+2)*(x-4) factorized formula

f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 32 polynomical formula

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume the factorized formula of a quadratic function:

f(x) = a*(x-x1)^2 * (x-x2)^2

where "a" is a coefficient and x1, x2 are the roots of the function. Then replacing the given roots:

f(x) = a*(x+2)*(x-4)

because its told us that -36 is the minimum value of the function we can say that its concave, then this value is actually the component in the Y axis of the vertex. To find the component in the X axis of the vertex we have to make the adding between the roots and divide this value by 2, this last is because a quadratic function is a symetrical function. Lets call the component at the X axis of the vertex as Xv, then:

Xv=(x1+x2)/2

Xv=(-2+4)/2

Xv=1

Therefore now we have a point of the function and its P=(1,-36) this point is the vertex of the function too.

Now the last thing to do is to find the value of the coefficient "a". We can find it by replacing the point of the vertex obtained before.

-36 = a*(1+2)*(1-4)

-36 = a*(3)*(-3)

-36 = a*(-9)

4 = a

Finally the equation is:

f(x) = 4*(x+2)*(x-4)

if we expand this function we find the polynomical form of this function

f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 32

Visa Card USA studied how frequently young consumers, ages 18 to 24, use plastic (debit and credit) cards in making purchases (A
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Given the consumer is 18 to 24 years old, there is 37% probability that he uses a plastic card.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem, we have:

What is the probability of the consumer using a plastic card, given that the consumer is 18 to 24 years old.

The problem states that the probability that a consumer uses a plastic card when making a purchase is .37, so P(B) = 0.37

P(A/B) is the probability that the consumer being 18 to 24 years old, given that he uses a plastic card. The problem states that this probability is .19. So P(A/B) = 0.19

P(A) is the probability that the consumer is 18 to 24 years old. There is a .81 probability that the consumer is more than 24 years old. So there is a .19 probability that he is 18 to 24 years old. So P(A) = 0.19

The probability is

P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.37*0.19}{0.19} = 0.37

Given the consumer is 18 to 24 years old, there is 37% probability that he uses a plastic card.
