A parabola is a curved shape in a graph that has either a maximum or a minimum (which is the fixed point) and any point is equidistant from that fixed point. You can tell it is a parabola because most likely in an equation the x with be squared.
I cant see the image...but I take it that the midpoint is (9,8) and the endpoint S is (10,10) and ur looking for the other endpoint R.
midpoint formula : (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2
(10,10)....x1 = 10 and y1 = 10
(x,y)....x2 = x and y2 = y
so we sub
(10 + x) / 2, (10 + y) / 2 = 9/8
(10 + x) / 2 = 9
10 + x = 9 * 2
10 + x = 18
x = 18 - 10
x = 8
(10 + y) / 2 = 8
10 + y = 8 * 2
10 + y = 16
y = 16 - 10
y = 6
so endpoint R has coordinates of (8,6) <===
UGH I think I did this before but I totally forgot how to do it. Give me a minute to do some research and remember because I'm about 79% sure I know how to do this!
Answer:
The point estimate for this problem is 0.48.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a University wanted to find out the percentage of students who felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students.
A survey of 2,800 students was conducted and the students were asked if they felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students. The results were 1,344 answered "Yes" and 1,456 answered "no".
<em>Let </em>
<em> = proportion of students who felt comfortable reporting cheating by their fellow students</em>
<u></u>
<u>Now, point estimate (</u>
<u>) is calculated as;</u>
where, X = number of students who answered yes = 1,344
n = number of students surveyed = 2,800
So, Point estimate (
) =
= <u>0.48 or 48%</u>
