Answer:

y = 3(x - 2)² - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a quadratic in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square

• The coefficient of the x² term must be 1

Factor out 3 from the first 2 terms

y = 3(x² - 4x ) + 4

• add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² - 4x

y = 3(x² + 2(- 2)x + (- 2)² - (- 2)² ) + 4 ← complete the square

y = 3(x - 2)² - 12 + 4

y = 3(x - 2)² - 8 ← in vertex form

If you draw four cards at random from a standard deck of 52 cards, what is the probability that all 4 cards have distinct charac

mezya [45]

There are $\binom{52}4$ ways of drawing a 4-card hand, where

$\dbinom nk = \dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

is the so-called binomial coefficient.

There are 13 different card values, of which we want the hand to represent 4 values, so there are $\binom{13}4$ ways of meeting this requirement.

For each card value, there are 4 choices of suit, of which we only pick 1, so there are $\binom41$ ways of picking a card of any given value. We draw 4 cards from the deck, so there are $\binom41^4$ possible hands in which each card has a different value.

Then there are $\binom{13}4 \binom41^4$ total hands in which all 4 cards have distinct values, and the probability of drawing such a hand is

$\dfrac{\dbinom{13}4 \dbinom41^4}{\dbinom{52}4} = \boxed{\dfrac{2816}{4165}} \approx 0.6761$

She could've cut the cake into 6 pieces so everyone could have an equal slice of cake or she could've cut it into 12 pieces and everyone could have 2 pieces each equally

hope this helps :)

Answer:

Factors (2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 = 900). It can also be written in exponential form as 22 x 32 x 52.

A beaker contains 0.5 liter of solution.Jordan uses 0.08 of the solution for an experiment.How much of the solution does Jordan

schepotkina [342]

I feel like this is a trick question

In the question it states "Jordan uses 0.08 of the solution for an experiment"

Which means that the answer is 0.08. Jordan uses 0.08 of the solution
