Answer:

Vertex: (3, -1). x-intercept(s): (4,0) & (2,0). y-intercept: (0,8). Domain: (-∞,∞). Range: [-1,∞) Axis of symmetry: x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the standard form of a parabola is ax² + bx + c which is also known as a quadratic equation

the vertex form of a parabola is a(x - h)² + k

problem 1: x² - 6x + 8

to solve this problem, we would need to put the equation into vertex form.

to find the vertex, we will use the formula <em>-b/2a, </em>where<em> b</em> is -6 and <em>a </em>is 1 to find <em>h (</em>also known as the x-coordinate). plug it in to the formula

-(-6)/2(1) = 6/2 = 3 <-- the x-coordinate

to find the y-coordinate, we will plug in the newly found x-coordinate into the <em>original </em>equation

solve: x² - 6x + 8 when x = 3

(3)² - 6(3) + 8 = 9 - 18 + 8 = -1 <-- the y-coordinate

so, the vertex of the equation is (3, -1)

next, we determine if the parabola opens up or down. in this case, the parabola opens up because the coefficient infront of x² is positive (1). if the coefficient was negative (-1), the parabola would open down.

now, we find the x & y intercepts. you can plot these coordinates in your table of values.

finding the x intercept(s): solve the equation for 0

solving x² - 6x + 8 =0, we can factor this out to be (x - 4)(x - 2) = 0. using the zero-product rule, we solve each of those equations for 0, with x - 4 = 0 and x - 2 = 0. the results from these are 4 and 2.

this makes the x intercepts (4, 0) and (2, 0)

finding the y intercept(s): substitute x = 0 in the original equation

substituting 0 for x in the original equation gives us:

(0)² - 6(0) + 8, which gives us only 8 since the 0s cancel out everything else. you can also say that the constant term <em>c</em> is the y intercept in order to make things a bit easier.

this makes the y intercept (0, 8)

finding the domain of a parabola:

the domain of a parabola is <em>always (-∞,∞)</em>, because it continues from left to right indefinitely

finding the range of a parabola:

the range of a parabola goes from bottom to top. the lowest y coordinate that the parabola has is located at (3, -1), making the lowest y coodinate -1.  since the parabola opens upward, we know that it continues to positive infinity.  

the range of the parabola is [-1,∞). we use a bracket on -1 because the point is located on the graph and is included in the solution.

the axis of symmetry: the axis of symmetry is the x-coordinate of the vertex, which is 3. so, the axis of symmetry would be x=3.

to find additional points, plug in any real number into the original equation, and the output will be the y value. for example:

x² - 6x +8 when x = 1

(1)² - 6(1) + 8 -> 1 - 6 + 8= 3

so, another coordinate on the grid would be (1, 3).

with all of this information, you can graph the parabola starting at the vertex and going through the y & x intercept(s) and the oher points you may need on the graph, along with solving the other equation.

i have attached a roughly drawn parabola of what it should look similar to, listing the intercepts and the vertex.

Bottles of purified water are assumed to contain 250 milliliters of water. There is some variation from bottle to bottle because
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

We accept H₀ we don´t have evidence of differences between the information from the sample and the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

From data and excel (or any statistics calculator) we get:

X = 249,6 ml         and       s  1,26 ml

Sample mean and sample standard deviation respectively.

Population mean  μ₀  = 250 ml

We have a normal distribution but we dont know the standard deviation of the population. Furthermore we have a two tails test since we are finding if the sample give us evidence of differences ( in both senses ) when we compare them with the amount of water spec ( 250 ml )

Our test hypothesis are: null hypothesis       H₀    X = μ₀

Alternative Hypothesis                                 Hₐ     X ≠ μ₀

We also know that sample size is 8  therefore df  =  8 - 1   df = 7 , with this value and the fact that we are required to test at α = 0,05 ( two tails test)

t = 2,365

Then we evaluate our interval:

X ± t* (s/√n)   ⇒   249,6 ±  2,365 * ( 1,26/√8 )

 249,6 ±  2,365 * (1,26/2,83)  ⇒ 249,6 ±  2,365 *0,45

249,6 ± 1,052

P [ 250,652 ; 248,548]

Then the population mean 250 is inside the interval, therefore we must accept that the bottles have being  fill withing the spec. We accept H₀
