y= x^2 - 6x-7

Vertex = -b /2a

b= -6

a= 1

-(-6)/2(1)= 3

x= 3

Use the substitution method to find y

y= (3)^2-6(3)-7

(3)(3)-18-7

9-25

y= -16

Vertex is (3, 16)

Find x- intercept (y= 0)

y= x^2 - 6x-7

(x-7)(x+1)

x-7= 0

Move -7 to the other side. Sign changes from -7 to 7

x-7+7= 0+7

x= 7

x+1= 0

Move +1 to the other side. Sign changes from +1 to -1

x+1-1= 0-1

x= -1

Answer :B. Vertex: (3, -16); Intercepts: x=-1,7

Answer:

28.

a. false

b. true

c. false

d. false

2. 8.4 X 2.3 X 2.09 = 40.3788

3. $10.04 - $13.47

4. Your friend would be incorrect because their decimal is in the wrong place. Take the decimals out of it and think about it. Can 1 times 2 equal anything near 31? no, so it's not reasonable that your friend could multiply 1.2 X 2.6 and get anything near 31.2

5. It is more reasonable to say between 5 and 6 because even when you round both of the numbers up (3 X 2), you still only get 6.

Answer:

The test statistic for this test is 3.82.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

$H_{0} = 8500$

The alternate hypotesis is:

$H_{1} > 8500$

Our test statistic is:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
