The axis of symmetry of a parabola in the form

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

is a vertical line

$x=k$

where k is the x coordinate of the vertex of the parabola.

The x coordinate of the vertex of the parabola is given by

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}$

which in your case is

$-\dfrac{-6}{2\cdot \frac{1}{4}}=\dfrac{6}{\frac{1}{2}}=6\cdot 2=12$

So, the axis of symmetry is the line x=12.

Write an equation for a line parallel to y=-3x+2 that passes through the point (-1,4)

Wewaii [24]

y=−3x+2 is a linear equation in slope-intercept form with
slope m=(−3)
(and y-intercept =2)

We want the equation of a line with slope m=(−3) through the point (−2,−8)

Using the point-slope linear equation form:
(y−(−8))=(−3)(x−(−2))

Simplifying
y+8=−3x−6
or, in standard form
3x+y=−14

An educator claims that the average salary of substitute teachers in school districts is less than $60 per day. A random sample

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

$t=\frac{58.875-60}{\frac{5.083}{\sqrt{8}}}=-0.626$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

The p value would be given by:

$p_v =P(t_{(7)}$

Since the p value is higher than 0.1 we have enough evidence to FAIl to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true mean is less than 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

60, 56, 60, 55, 70, 55, 60, and 55.

We can calculate the mean and deviation with these formulas:

$\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

Replacing we got:

$\bar X=58.875$ represent the mean

$s=5.083$ represent the sample standard deviation for the sample

$n=8$ sample size

$\mu_o =60$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.1$ represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true mean is less than 60, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 60$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 60$

The statistic would be given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the info we got:

$t=\frac{58.875-60}{\frac{5.083}{\sqrt{8}}}=-0.626$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

The p value would be given by:

$p_v =P(t_{(7)}$

Since the p value is higher than 0.1 we have enough evidence to FAIl to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true mean is less than 60

Show solutions please

slega [8]

Answer:

1. Their ages are:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8

2. Their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11

3. Their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9

4. Their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We make the assumption that:

S = Steve's age

A = Anne's age

In four years, we are going to have:

S + 4 = (A + 4)2 - 2 = 2A + 8 - 2

S + 4 = 2A + 6 .................. (1)

Three years ago, we had:

S - 3 = (A - 3)3

S - 3 = 3A - 9

S = 3A - 9 + 3

S = 3A – 6 …………. (2)

Substitute S from (2) into (1) and solve for A, we have:

3A – 6 + 4 = 2A + 6

3A – 2A = 6 + 6 – 4

A = 8

Substitute A = 8 into (3), we have:

S = (3 * 8) – 6 = 24 – 6

S = 18

Therefore, we have:

Steve's age = 18

Anne's age = 8.

2. We make the assumption that:

M = Max's age

B = Bert's age

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (B - 5)2

M - 5 = 2B - 10 .......................... (3)

A year from now, it will be:

(M + 1) + (B + 1) = 30

M + 1 + B + 1 = 30

M + B + 2 = 30

M = 30 – 2 – B

M = 28 – B …………………… (4)

Substitute M from (4) into (3) and solve for B, we have:

28 – B – 5 = 2B – 10

28 – 5 + 10 = 2B + B

33 = 3B

B = 33 / 3

B = 11

If we substitute B = 11 into equation (4), we will have:

M = 28 – 11

M = 17

Therefore, their ages are:

Max's age = 17

Bert's age = 11.

3. We make the assumption that:

S = Sury's age

B = Billy's age

Now, we have:

S = B + 10 ................................ (5)

Next year, it will be:

S + 1 = (B + 1)2

S + 1 = 2B + 2 .......................... (6)

Substituting S from equation (5) into equation (6) and solve for B, we will have:

B + 10 + 1 = 2B + 2

10 + 1 – 2 = 2B – B

B = 9

Substituting B = 9 into equation (5), we have:

S = 9 + 10

S = 19

Therefore, their ages are:

Sury's age = 19

Billy's age = 9.

4. We make the assumption that:

M = The man's age

S = His son's age

Therefore, now, we have:

M = 3S ................................... (7)

Five years ago, we had:

M - 5 = (S - 5)5

M - 5 = 5S - 25 ................ (8)

Substituting M = 3S from (7) into (8) and solve for S, we have:

3S - 5 = 5S – 25

3S – 5S = - 25 + 5

-2S = - 20

S = -20 / -2

S = 10

Substituting S = 10 into equation (7), we have:

M = 3 * 10 = 30

Therefore, their ages are:

The man's age = 30

His son's age = 10
