There can only be two definite x-intercepts, so your goal it to find 2 numbers of x that, when plugged into the equation, give you the answer of 0. 1 is the first x-intercept(4-24+20 equals 0). The second one is 5 (100-120+20 equals 0). So the average is 3, so the axis of symmetry is 3 since 5+1=6, and 6/2=3

Honestly, there is an easier way to find the axis of symmetry. the equation would be -b/2a, where as b is the coefficient in the second part of the equation, while a is the first coefficient in the equation. -(-24) is 24, and 4*2=8, so 24/8=3

I hope I actually answered this the way you wanted. You asked for an equation, but I just answered the axis of symmetry with very simple equation initially and another equation

To get the x-intercepts of the function, f(x) = 4x2 – 24x + 20

It has to be equated to zero and the values of x are the x-intercepts. So,

4x2 – 24x + 20 = 0

The resulting equation is a quadratic equation which can be solved by different methods. The solution is

x = 5, 1

The average therefore is:

(1+5/)2 = 3

I forgot about scientific notation
irina [24]
Only C and D are in scientific notation because the decimal has to be after the 3.
Counting how many places you move the decimal to get it behind the 3 we get 8. This is the exponent.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

H0: p = 0.1 and Ha: p > 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean or proportion is equal to a certain value.

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean or proportion is less than, more than, or different of the value tested at the null hypothesis.

A quality control inspector wants to determine if more than 10% of all shells contain just one peanut.

The value of 10% = 0.1 is tested, which means that the null hypothesis is H_{0}: p = 0.1

Test if it is more than 10% = 0.1, so the alternate hypothesis is: H_{a}: p > 0.1
