Start with the x intercepts.
You need to factor the original function.
y = x^2 - 4x - 21 
y = (x -  7)*(x + 3) These are the correct factors.

The two roots are 
x = 7
x = - 3

So the two points you want are (7,0) and (-3,0)
That makes the answer C <<<<========

The vertex is a little harder. You need to complete the square to get it. (I take it you don't know any calculus yet.
y = x^2 - 4x - 21
y = (x^2 - 4x + ... ) - 21
y = (x^2 - 4x + 4) - 21 - 4
y = (x - 2)^2 - 25

The vertex is (2,- 25)
The answer is B <<<<<<=======

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The probability of finding an average in excess of 4.3 ounces of this ingredient from 100 randomly inspected 1-gallon samples of regular unleaded gasoline = P(x > 4.3) = 0.00621

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution problem

The mean of the sample = The population mean

μₓ = μ = 4 ounces

But the standard deviation of the sample is related to the standard deviation of the population through the relation

σₓ = σ/√n

where n = Sample size = 100

σₓ = 1.2/√100

σₓ = 0.12

The probability of finding an average in excess of 4.3 ounces of this ingredient from 100 randomly inspected 1-gallon samples of regular unleaded gasoline = P(x > 4.3)

To do this, we first normalize/standardize the 4.3 ounces

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (4.3 - 4)/0.12 = 2.5

To determine the probability of finding an average in excess of 4.3 ounces of this ingredient from 100 randomly inspected 1-gallon samples of regular unleaded gasoline = P(x > 4.3) = P(z > 2.5)

We'll use data from the normal probability table for these probabilities

P(x > 4.3) = P(z > 2.5) = 1 - P(z ≤ 2.5) = 1 - 0.99379 = 0.00621

barxatty [35]
Answer: 16 miles


Explanation:
I believe it would be 16 miles, if he starts off at 6 miles on day one and goes up 1/2 mile every day, he would be up a mile every other day, basically on day 3 he would be at 7 and day 5 at 8 miles, if the pattern continues he would be at 16 miles by day 21.

Consider a hypothesis test to decide whether the mean annual consumption of beer in the nation's capital is less than the nation
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Type I error occurs when the null hypothesis is rejected even when it is true.

Type II error occurs when the null hypothesis is not rejected even when it is false.

The null hypothesis is

The mean annual consumption = the national mean

The alternative hypothesis is

The mean annual consumption < the national mean

1) it is a type II error because the null hypothesis was not rejected even when it is false

2) it is a correct decision because the decision corresponds to the outcome

3) it is also a type II error

d) it is a correct decision because the null hypothesis is accepted when it is true
