3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let the given equation be

y = x^{2} + mx  - 9

Step 2:

Applying the  given vertices and simplifying  we will get m

-11.25 = (-1.5)² +m(-1.5) -9

-1.5m = -11.25 + 9 - 2.25

         = -4.5

m = (-4.5) / (-1.5)

    = 3

<em>Additional comment</em>

Many calculators and all spreadsheets can work with percentages directly. If yours can't, or if you can't do this arithmetic mentally, you can use the equivalent decimal or fraction for 5%.

  5% = 5/100 = 0.05 = 1/20

Then 5% × $640 = $640/20 = $64/2 = $32.

A farmer wants to enclose a rectangular field that borders a river with 400 feet of fencing material. if the farmer does not fen
ICE Princess25 [194]
Let each side perpendicular to the river be "x".Then the side parallel to the river is "400-2x".
The formula for Area = width*length
A(x) = x(400-2x)
A(x) = 400x - 2x^2
You have a quadratic with a = -2 and b = 400
Maximum Area occurs where x = -b/2a = -400/(2*-2) = 100 ft. (width)
length = 400-2x = 400-2*100 =  200 ft (length)

dybincka [34]

Using the model equation, the predicted mean score on the final given a score of <em>10 points above the class mean</em> in the mid term exam is 50.7

<u>The Least - Square Regression equation which models the relationship between midterm and final exam score is</u> :

  • γ=46.6 + 0.41x

x = 10 points ; <u>substitute the value of x = 10 into the regression equation</u> ;

γ=46.6 + 0.41(10)

γ=46.6 + 4.1

γ = 50.7

The <em>number of points above the mean</em> he'll score in the final exam is predicted to be 50.7

Graph the linear equation
baherus [9]
For the equation
.. x - y = 4
you can divide by 4 to put the equation into intercept form. This form shows you both interecepts at once.
.. x/4 +y/(-4) = 1

The x-intercept is (4, 0).
The y-intercept is (0, -4).

The graph is shown below.
