Pollsters are concerned about declining levels of cooperation among persons contacted in surveys. A pollster contacts 78 people

in the 18-21 age bracket and finds that 66 of them respond and 12 refuse to respond. When 269 people in the 22-29 age bracket are contacted, 250 respond and 19 refuse to respond. Assume that 1 of the 347 people is randomly selected. Find the probability of getting someone in the 18-21 age bracket or someone who agreed to respond.

This is for algebra 2 can someone tell me if I’m right and can someone explain how do you get a= ?
algol13

Answers:

a = 2

h = 3

k = -3

You have the correct h and k values. Nice work so far.

==========================================================

Explanation:

(h,k) is the vertex. So (h,k) = (3,-3) meaning h = 3 and k = -3

To get the value of 'a', we need to plug in some point on the red graph. Each point is of the form (x,y). We can pick any point we want that isn't the vertex.

Let's pick (0,3) which is the y intercept. I'm picking this because 0 is an easy number to work with

------------

y = a|x-h| + k

y = a|x-3| + (-3) .... plug in the h,k values

y = a|x-3| - 3

3 = a|0-3| - 3 .... plug in (x,y) = (0,3)

3 = a|-3| - 3

3 = a*3 - 3

3 = 3a - 3

3a-3 = 3

3a = 3+3 ... adding 3 to both sides

3a = 6

a = 6/3 ... divide both sides by 3

a = 2

The value a = 2 indicates that the parent function y = |x| has been stretched vertically by a factor of 2. So it is twice as tall as before. Then it has been shifted to place the vertex at (3,-3) as shown in the graph.

------------

You may be wondering why you can't pick on the vertex for (x,y)

Let's see what happens if we use (x,y) = (3,-3)

y = a|x-3| - 3

-3 = a|3-3| - 3 ... plug in (x,y) = (3,-3)

-3 = a|0| - 3 ... uh oh, we get 0 here

-3 = a*0 - 3

-3 = 0 - 3

-3 = -3

We get a true statement, which is nice, but it doesn't tell us anything about what the value of 'a' is. That 'a' term goes away entirely. So I avoided using x = 3 to prevent x-3 from being 0.

A fruit company sells two types of boxes large and small. A delivery of two large boxes and three small boxes has a total weight
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

the large box weight is 6.50 kg and the small box weight is 13.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of each type of box weight is as follows:

Let us assume the large box be x

And, the small box be y

So,

2x + 3y = 47.......(i)

6x + 5y = 115........(ii)

Multiply by 3 in equation 1

6x + 9y = 141

6x + 5y = 115

Now subtract the last equation from the above one

4y = 26

y = 6.50

For x, it would be

2x+ 3(6.50) = 47

2x + 19.5 = 47

2x = 47 - 19.50

2x = 27.50

x = 13.75

Hence, the large box weight is 6.50 kg and the small box weight is 13.75 kg
