Jessica is asked to write a quadratic equation to represent a function that goes through the point (8, –11) and has a vertex at

(6, –3). Her work is shown below.
–11 = a(8 – 6)2 – 3
–11 = a(2)2 – 3
–11 = 4a – 3
–8 = 4a
a = –2

After Jessica gets stuck, she asks Sally to help her finish the problem. Sally states that Jessica needs to write the quadratic equation using the value she found for a, –2, and the point (8, –11).

Evaluate Jessica’s work and Sally’s review to determine which statement is true.

Answer:

Jessica’s work is correct and Sally’s review is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm just assume it's a vertical parabola

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola in vertex for is equal to

y=a(x-h)^{2}+k

where

(h,k) is the vertex

In this problem we have

(h,k)=(6,-3)

point (8,-11)

substitute

-11=a(8-6)^{2}-3

-11=a(2)^{2}-3

-11=4a-3

-8=4a

a=-2

To find the equation using the value of a and the vertex point

so

y=-2(x-6)^{2}-3

therefore

Jessica’s work is correct and Sally’s review is incorrect

Suppose you pick a tile out of a bag containing 26 tiles marked with the letters A through Z. What is the probability of picking
Liula [17]
Given that <span>a bag contains 26 tiles marked with the letters A through Z.

The probability of picking a letter from the name JACK is 4 / 26

The probability of picking a letter from the name BEN is 3 / 26.

Therefore, the probability of picking a letter from the name JACK or from the name BEN iis given by 4 / 26 + 3 / 26 = 7 / 26 </span>

Write the prime factorization for 65,169
posledela

Let's try to find some primes that divide this number.

The number is not divisible by 2, because it is odd.

The number is divisible by 3 though, because the sum of its digits is:

6+5+1+6+9=27=3\cdot 9

So, we can divide the number by 3 and keep going with the factorization:

65169\div 3 = 21723

This number is again divisible by 3, because

2+1+7+2+3 = 15 = 3\cdot 5

We have

21723\div 3 = 7241

This number is no longer divisible by 3. Let's go on looking for primes that divide it: 5 doesn't because the number doesn't end in 0 nor 5. This number is not divisible by 7 or 11 either (just try). It is divisible by 13 though: we have

7241\div 13 = 557

And 557 is prime, so we're done. This means that the prime factorization of 65169 is

3^2\cdot 13 \cdot 557
