Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic function in standard form is
y = ax² + bx + c (a ≠ 0 )
Given
y = - 3x² + 6x + 17 ← compare coefficients with standard form, then
a = - 3, b = 6, c = 17
Given the quadratic in standard form the the equation of the axis of symmetry is
x = - = -
= 1
Equation of axis of symmetry is x = 1
It invalidates his hypothesis because it is possible for the time a trip takes to depend on the distance that is traveled during the trip.
Option C is the right answer.
The missing graph has been attached with the answer.
<h3>What is a Scatter Plot ?</h3>These are Cartesian Points and it represents relationship between two variables.
It is given that
Will's Hypothesis is time can never be a dependent variable.
Although from the graph plotted it can be seen that the time is dependent on distance travelled and
the in a scatter plot , the dependent variable is plotted on y axis and here the time is plotted on y axis ,
therefore the scatter plot invalidate Willis’s hypothesis.
It invalidates his hypothesis because it is possible for the time a trip takes to depend on the distance that is traveled during the trip.
Option C is the right answer.
