Answer:

See the attachment for what goes on your X diagram.

Rewrite: x² -7x +4x -28

Grouping: (x² -7x) +(4x -28) = x(x -7) +4(x -7) = (x +4)(x -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic is ...

... x² -3x -28 . . . . . a=1, b=-3, c=-28

a) The value at the top of the X diagram is the product a·c = 1·(-28) = -28.

The value at the bottom of the X diagram is the coefficient b = -3.

The values on the sides of the diagram are the factors of -28 that add up to make -3. These are -7 and 4. That is, ...

(-7)·(4) = -28

(-7)+(4) = -3

b) Since the two values on the sides of the diagram add up to give "b", the value of "b" in the equation can be rewritten as the sum of these two numbers. Doing that, we have ...

... x² -3x -28

... = x² +(-7+4)x -28

... = x² -7x +4x -28 . . . . . . order does not matter. It could also be x² +4x -7x -28

c) We can group pairs of terms in the rewritten expression and factor each pair.

... = (x² -7x) +(4x -28) . . . . . first pair has a common factor of x; second pair, 4

... = x(x -7) +4(x -7) . . . . . . . these terms now have a common factor: (x -7)

... = (x +4)(x -7) . . . . . . . . . . the complete factorization of x² -3x -28

D) these two figures are similar they don't look similar at first because the X'Z'Y' is more upwards. But they are congruent meaning they are similar or exactly the same almost. This basically tells me that I need to use translation.

E) I can use reflection to get XYZ into X'Y'Z' by reflecting it across the x-axis. I could also use translation and move it up 6 and then move it to the right.

C) The last one I could use is rotation and move it around around 45* or something close to the the other one.

Is the mean age at which American children learn to walk less than 15 months? A study of 40 American children found a mean walki

Answer:

We define the random variable X as the walking age and we are interested if American children learn to walk less than 15 months so then that would be the alternative hypothesis and the complement would be the null hypothesis.

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 15$
