To find it it is
ax^2+bx+c
if the first term (a) is 1 then c=b/2
b=-1/4
(-1/4)/2=-1/4 times 1/2=-1/8

k=-1/8

In basketball you score 2 points for a field goal and 1 point for a free throw. Suppose that you have scored at least 3 points i

2x+y>3 describes the low end, presuming that you have defined to mean the number of field goals and to mean the number of free throws. yet your best game was 15, so the values must also satisfy 2x+y

A professor thinks that the students in her statistics class this term are less creative than most students at this university.

Answer:

It is not enough evidence to reject null hypothesis. It is not enough evidence to say that mean score is not equal to 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mu=35\\n=23\\\=x=33\\s=5\\\alpha=0.1$

1. Null and alternative hypothesis

$H_{0}:\mu=35\\H_{1}:\mu$

2. Significance level

$\alpha=0.1\\1-\alpha=0.99$

Freedom degrees is given by:

$v=n-1\\v=23-1=22$

For a sgnificance level of 0,01 and 22 freedom degrees, t-student distribution value is:

$t_{0.01;23}=-2. 5083$

3. Test statistic

$t=\frac{\=x-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$

$t=\frac{33-35}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{23} } }$

$t=-1,918$

In this case, we have an one left tailed analysis, it means that null hypothesis is rejected if $t$

$-1.918>-2.5083$

Conclusion:

It is not enough evidence to reject null hypothesis. It is not enough evidence to say that mean score is not equal to 35.

22.5/(x-6) + 22.5/(x+6) = 9
multiply by x-6
=> (x-6)22.5/(x-6) + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
=> 22.5 + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
multiply by x+6
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x+6)(x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)(x+6)
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x-6)22.5 = 9(x-6)(x+6)
distribute
=> 22.5x+6(22.5) + 22.5x - 6(22.5) = 9(x^2 - 36)
=> 45x = 9x^2 - 9(36)
=> 0 = 9x^2 - 45x - 9(36)
divide by 9
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = (x - 9)(x + 4)
x=9 and -4
