$\large{y=a\cdot x^2\ +\ b\cdot x\ +\ c}$

Step-by-step explanation:

just plug in the x and y values of each point in the above equation and you will get a system of 3 equations for a, b, and c.

$(-1,3) \ \rightarrow \ \bold{\ \ 3=\ \ a-\ \ b+c}$
$(2,-4) \ \rightarrow \ \bold{-4=4a+2b+c}$
$(5,\ 4)\ \ \rightarrow \ \bold{\ 4=25a+5b+c}$

The cost (c) to hire a dog trainer is varies directly with the amount of time (h) in hours spent training the dog.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Part A) The proportional equation is $c=55h$

Part B) 8 hours of training

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

Let

c -----> the cost to hire a dog

h ----> the amount of time in hours

The linear equation is equal to

$c=kh$

Sue spent $660 on 12 hours of obedience training for her dog Muffin

Find the value of k (constant of proportionality)

$k=y/x$

substitute the values

$k=660/12=55$

therefore

The linear equation is

$c=55h$

For $c=\$440$

Find the value of h

substitute in the equation and solve for h

$440=55h$

$h=440/55=8\ hours$

Answer:

1. a. z test for means and t test for means.

2. C. HA : mu1 - mu2 > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypothesis testing is used in a situation where there are more than 1 alternative available. The t test is conducted in the mean which determines the t value and then this value is compared with p value to identify the situation whether to accept or reject the null hypothesis. The alternative hypothesis in this situation is is represented by mu.

An 8-sided die is formed when two square pyramids are attached by their bases. The perimeter of the base shape is 6 centimeters.

Leona [35]

Consider one pyramid
Side length of base = 1.5cm and its height is 1 cm
Slant height of one of the lateral faces = sqrt(1^2 + 0.75^2) = 1.25 cm
Area of one of the triangular faces = 0.5 * 1.5* 1.25 = 0.9375 cm^2

There are 8 of these so the required surface area = 8 * 0.9375
= 7.5 cm^2 Answer
