The given quadratic describes a parabola that opens upward. Its one absolute extreme is a minimum that is found at x = -3/2. The value of the function there is
  (-3/2 +3)(-3/2) -1 = -13/4

The one relative extreme is a minimum at (-1.5, -3.25).

_____
For the parabola described by ax² +bx +c, the vertex (extreme) is found where
  x = -b/(2a)
Here, that is x=-3/(2·1) = -3/2.

givi [52]

Answer:

dy/dx = -1/x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Reptile [31]

Answer: Our required probability is 0.3162.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 60

Probability of success = \dfrac{2}{3}

Probability that at most 39 of these relays come from supplier A would be

P(X\leq 39)=binomcdf(60,\dfrac{2}{3},39)=0.3162

Hence, our required probability is 0.3162.
