Answer:

a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that The zeros of a parabola are-5 and -3.

Hence parabola would be of the form

y =a(x+5)(x+3)

To find a:

A point (0,60) on the parabola is given

Substitute this point in the equation

60=a(0+5)(0+3)\\15a=60\\a=4

Hence answer is

a=4

How are a function and its inverse related?
marta [7]

Answer:

They reverse each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

zlopas [31]

Answer:

P(X>8)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{8-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{8-10}{2})=P(Z>-1)  

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:  

P(Z>-1)=1-P(Z  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem  

Let X the random variable that represent the average homicide rate for the cities of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:  

X \sim N(10,2)  

Where \mu=10 and \sigma=2  

We are interested on this probability  

P(X>8)  

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:  

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}  

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:  

P(X>8)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{8-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{8-10}{2})=P(Z>-1)  

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:  

P(Z>-1)=1-P(Z
