Ms. Redmon gave her theater students an assignment to memorize a dramatic monologue to present to the rest of the class. The gra

ph shows the times, rounded to the nearest half minute, of the first 10 monologues presented.
A number line going from 0.5 to 5. 0 dots are above 0.5 0 dots are above 1. 2 dots area above 1.5. 1 dot is above 2. 3 dots are above 2.5. 1 dot is above 3. 2 dots are above 3.5. 1 dot is above 4. 0 dots are above 2.5. 0 dots are above 5.

The next student presents a monologue that is about 0.5 minutes long. What effect will this have on the graph?

A. The median will decrease.
B. The mean will decrease.
C.The median will increase.
D. The mean will increase.

Let's see if we can recreate the histogram from the description.

Time count

0.5  0

1       0

1.5    2

2      1

2.5   3

3       1

3.5    2

4       1

4.5    0

5       0

The mean is between 2.5 and 3 so that will definitely decrease with a data point that's less that that, as 0.5 is.  

For 10 data points the median is the average of the 5th and 6th when sorted, and those are both 2.5.  When the new point is added the median will be the 6th of 11 points, still 2.5 in this story.

Answer: B  the mean will decrease

What is the equation written in vertex from of a parabola with a vertex of (4, –2) that passes through (2, –14)?
vichka [17]

Answer:

y = -3(x - 4)² - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertex, (4, -2), and the point (2, -14):

We can use the vertex form of the quadratic equation:

y = a(x - h)² + k

Where:

(h, k) = vertex

a  =  determines whether the graph opens up or down, and it also makes the parent function <u>wider</u> or <u>narrower</u>.

  • <u>positive</u> value of a = opens <u><em>upward</em></u>
  • <u>negative</u> value of a = opens <u><em>downward</em></u>
  • a is between 0 and 1, (0 < a < 1) the graph is <u><em>wider</em></u> than the parent function.
  • a > 1, the graph is <u><em>narrower</em></u> than the parent function.

<em>h </em>=<em> </em>determines how far left or right the parent function is translated.

  • h = positive, the function is translated <em>h</em> units to the right.
  • h = negative, the function is translated |<em>h</em>| units to the left.

<em>k</em> determines how far up or down the parent function is translated.

  • k = positive: translate <em>k</em> units <u><em>up</em></u>.
  • k = negative, translate <em>k</em> units <u><em>down</em></u>.

Now that I've set up the definitions for each variable of the vertex form, we can determine the quadratic equation using the given vertex and the point:

vertex (h, k): (4, -2)

point (x, y): (2, -14)

Substitute these values into the vertex form to solve for a:

y = a(x - h)² + k

-14 = a(2 - 4)²  -2

-14 = a (-2)² -2

-14 = a4 + -2

Add to to both sides:

-14 + 2 = a4 + -2 + 2

-12 = 4a

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for a:

-12/4 = 4a/4

-3 = a

Therefore, the quadratic equation inI vertex form is:

y = -3(x - 4)² - 2

The parabola is downward-facing, and is vertically compressed by a factor of -3. The graph is also horizontally translated 4 units to the right, and vertically translated 2 units down.

Attached is a screenshot of the graph where it shows the vertex and the given point, using the vertex form that I came up with.
