Answer:
all real numbers greater than or equal to -1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to know the vertex and the direction its pointing.
First we expand,
x^2-6x+8
To find the x value of the vertex we use this formula (-b/2a).
-(-6)/2(1) = 3
Now we plug 3 in the equation to get the y value,
(3)^2 - 6(3) + 8 = 9 - 18 + 8 = -1
The vertex is (3,-1)
We know the graph points up because x^2 is positive
The vertex is the lowest point, so we now know that -1 is the starting range and if the graph is pointing up, that means all values greater than -1.
This leads to our answer all real numbers greater than or equal to -1.
Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is how to approach the problem:
We see that all our restrictions for all four answer choices are relatively the same with a couple of changes here and there.
One way to eliminate choices would be to look at which restrictions don't match the graph.
At x<-5, there is a linear function that does have a -2 slope and will intersect the x axis at -7. The line ends with an open circle, so any answer choice with a linear restriction of x less than or equal to -5 is wrong. This cancels out choices C and D.
Now we have two choices left.
For the quadratic in the middle, the vertex is at (-2,6) and the vertex is a maximum, meaning our graph needs to have a negative sign in front of the highest degree term. In our case, none of our quadratics left are in standard form, and instead are in vertex form.
Vertext form is f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k.
h being the x-coordinate of the vertex and k being the y-coordinate.
We know that the opposite of h will be the actual x-coordinate of the vertex, so if our vertex is -2, we will see x+2 inside the parenthesis. This leaves option A as the only correct choice.
Let's find the discriminant of <span>x^2+9x+14=0. Here, a=1, b=9 and c=14.
The discriminant is b^2-4ac. Substituting the above numeric values,
9^2-4(1)(14) = 81-56 = 25
The sqrt of 25 is 5. Thus, your polynomial has two unequal, real roots.
Off the point example: If the discriminant were zero, your poly would have two real, equal roots.</span>

Answer:
option A
Step-by-step explanation:
To Test
H₀ : μ = 3.75
H₁ : μ ≠ 3.75
now,
If μ = 3.95 then it means H₀ is not true.
then the probability is rejecting the null hypothesis.
Hence, the probability is the power of the test against the alternative μ=3.95
The correct answer is option A
