Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{3}x^2+2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are going to get all of these points into our standard form equation for a parabola, which is:

y=ax^2+bx+c.  We will do this by using the x and y coordinates from each of those 3 coordinate pairs.  In the first pair, x = 3 and y = 8, so filling in:

8=a(3)^2+b(3)+c or 8=9a+3b+c

Next coordinate pair is x = 5 and y = 20/3, so filling in:

\frac{20}{3}=a(5)^2+b(5)+c or \frac{20}{3}=25a+5b+c

Next coodinate pair is x = 6 and y = 5, so filling in:

5=a(6)^2+b(6)+c or 5=36a+6b+c

We will use the first and the third equations and multiply one of them through by a -1 to get rid of the c's:

-1(36a  +  6b  +  c  =  5) = -35a  -  6b  -  c  =  -5

We use the addition/elimination method to eliminate the c's:

- 36a  -  6b  -  c  =  -5

   9a  +  3b  + c  =  8

gives us, when we add:

-27a - 3b = 3

Now we will do the same thing with the first and the second equations to eliminate the c's.  We multiply one of them through by a -1:

-1(8 = 9a + 3b + c) = -8 = -9a - 3b - c

We use the addition/elimination method to eliminate the c's:

-9a  -  3b  -  c  =  -8

25a +  5b  + c  = 20/3

gives us, when we add:

16a+2b=-\frac{4}{3}

Now we will use the addition/elimination method on those 2 bold equations, multiplying through by what we need, in order to solve for a.  The first bold equation will be multiplied through by 2, and the second bold equation will be multiplied through by 3 to give us 2 new equations that are:

-54a  -  6b  =  6

48a  +  6b  = -4

gives us, when we add:

-6a = 2 so

a=-\frac{1}{3}

Going back to the first bold equation, we will fill in our a value to solve for b:

-27(-\frac{1}{3})-3b=3 and

9 - 3b = 3 and

-3b = -6 so

b = 2

Now we will go back up to the very first equation we wrote in terms of a, b, and c and fill in a and b to solve for c:

9(-\frac{1}{3})+3(2)+c=8 and

-3 + 6 + c = 8 and

3 + c = 8 so

c = 5

Our equation, then is:

y=-\frac{1}{3}x^2+2x+5

What is 12.25 as a fraction
Finger [1]

Answer:

\large\boxed{12.25=\dfrac{49}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

12.\underbrace{25}_{2}=\dfrac{1225}{1\underbrace{00}_2}=\dfrac{1225:25}{100:25}=\dfrac{49}{4}\\\\12.25=12+0.25=12+\dfrac{25}{100}=12+\dfrac{25:25}{100:25}=12+\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{12\cdot4}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{48+1}{4}=\dfrac{49}{4}

A local animal rescue organization receives an average of 0.55 rescue calls per hour. Use the Poisson distribution to find the p
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B) 0.894

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given interval.

A local animal rescue organization receives an average of 0.55 rescue calls per hour.

This means that \mu = 0.55

Probability that during a randomly selected hour, the organization will receive fewer than two calls.

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

In which

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-0.55}*(0.55)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.577

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-0.55}*(0.55)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.317

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.577 + 0.317 = 0.894

If two of the four expressions x + y, x + 5y, x – y, and 5x – y are chosen at random, what is the probability that their product
storchak [24]

Answer:

  1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The product will only be of the required form if the two chosen factors are of the form (x +by) and (x -by).

For the factor (x+y), there is also a factor (x-y) on the list. For the factor (x+5y), there is no factor (x-5y) available.

So, of the (4·3)/2 = 6 possible ways to choose two expressions from the four given expressions, only one pair of the 6 will have a product of the required form.

The probability is 1/6.
