<span>y= 2x ^2 - 8x +9
</span>y = a(x - h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex<span> of the parabola
</span>so
y= 2x ^2 - 8x + 9
y= 2x ^2 - 8x + 8 + 1
y = 2(x^2 - 4x - 4) + 1
y = 2(x - 2)^2 + 1 ....<---------<span>vertex form</span>
Please write (x4 – 2) ÷ (x + 1) as <span>(x^4 – 2) ÷ (x + 1).
We can find the remainder using synth. div. as follows:
_________________
-1 / 1 0 0 0 -2
-1 1 -1 1
------------------------------
1 -1 1 -1 -1
The remainder is -1.</span>
Answer:
Since the sample size is larger than 30, the cognitive psychologist can assume that the sampling distribution of M will be approximately normal.
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the central limit theorem to solve this question.
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean
and standard deviation
, a sample size larger than 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation 
So
Since the sample size is larger than 30, the cognitive psychologist can assume that the sampling distribution of M will be approximately normal.
Answer:
35.4 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The annual consumption (in billions of units) is described by the exponential function ...
f(t) = 45.5·1.026^t
The accumulated consumption is described by the integral ...

We want to find t such that the value of this integral is 2625, the estimated oil reserves.
2625 = 45.5/ln(1.026)·(1.026^t -1)
2625·ln(1.026)/45.5 +1 = 1.026^t ≈ 1.480832 +1 = 1.026^t
Taking natural logs, we have ...
ln(2.480832) = t·ln(1.026)
t ≈ ln(2.480832)/ln(1.026) ≈ 35.398
After about 35.4 years, the oil reserves will run out.
