Answer:

$f( - \frac{b}{2a} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

When you not given the vertex form, the you are given the standard form:

$f(x) = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$

The value of k, is the y-value of the vertex of the function.

To find the value of k, you plug in

$x = - \frac{b}{2a}$

In order works, you evaluate

$f( - \frac{b}{2a} )$

This will give you the k-value

Help me please i dont understand this

faltersainse [42]

Firstly find two coordinates that lie on the line, we have (0,6) and (8,10).

Slope= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (10-6)/(8-0)
= 4/8
= 1/2

The answer is B

the ramirez family comes home from vacation to find their mailbox overflowing with mail. there are 6 more magazines than there a

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

9 magazines

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you will want to work backwards. Start with the junk mail. There is 18 junk mail and if there are 1/3 as many bills as junk mail then you will need to multiply 18 * 1/3. This equals 6 bills. If there is twice as many bills as letters then you will need to divide bills(6) by 2 which equals 3. If there are 6 more magazines than letters then you need to add 6 to the letters (3). 3 + 6 = 9

The operation manager at a tire manufacturing company believes that the mean mileage of a tire is 48,564 miles, with a standard

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$
