In counterclockwise order that's


R(2,4), Q(-4,4), U(-4,3), T(2,-3), S(5,-3)


That's a trapezoid, height 7 upper base 6, lower base 9, so average base 15/2 and area 7(15)/2 = 105/2 = 52.5.


Answer: 52.5


The shoelace theorem gives the answer without thinking. We write the list on top of itself shifted and add up the cross produces:


R(2,4), Q(-4,4), U(-4,-3), T(2,-3), S(5,-3)

Q(-4,4), U(-4,-3), T(2,-3), S(5,-3), R(2,4),


A = \frac 1 2 | 2(4)-(4)(-4) + -4(-3)-(-4)(4) + -4(-3)- -3(2) + 2(-3)-(-3)(5) + 5(4)- -3(2)| = \frac{105}{2} \quad\checkmark

What is the y-value of the vertex of the function f(x)=−(x−3)(x+11)? −8 −4 33 49
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y - value of the vertex is 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is f(x) = -(x - 3)(x + 11)

f(x) = -(x² - 3x + 11x - 33)

     = -(x² + 8x - 33)

     = -(x² + 8x + 16 - 49)

     = -[(x + 4)² - 49]

     = -(x + 4)² + 49

Comparing this equation with the vertex form of a quadratic function,

f(x) = -(x - h)² + k

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the function.

Vertex of the parabola is (-4, 49)

Therefore, y-value of the vertex is 49.

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

t_{\alpha/2} = t_{0.05/2} = t_{0.025} = 2.0322

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of size n = 35, \bar{x} = 92 and s = 5. As we want to construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the value of the true population mean \mu, we should use the pivotal quantity given by T = \frac{\bar{X}-\mu}{S/\sqrt{n}} which comes from the t distribution with n - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34 degrees of freedom. Besides we should use the t-value t_{\alpha/2} = t_{0.05/2} = t_{0.025} = 2.0322, i.e., regarding the t-distribution with 34 degrees of freedom, we have an area of 0.025 above 2.0322 and below the probability density function. The rationale behind this is that P(-2.0322\leq T\leq 2.0322) = 0.95 because of the simmetry of the t distribution.

Rotating Q 180 degrees using the center P has the same effect as reflecting Q over the Line M
Step-by-step explanation:
Rotating Q 180 degrees using the center P has the same effect as reflecting Q over the Line M and this is because Lines L and M are perpendicular lines ( i.e. lines that meet a right angle ( 90° ).
Hence rotating Q 180 degrees form the center will be similar to reflecting Q over any of the perpendicular lines
