See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph of the quadratic equation is a parabola or u shaped graph. It has a vertex at (-1,-3) since h=-1 and k=-3 in the vertex form. It is also facing down since the leading coefficient is negative.
Answer:
A rational exponent is an exponent that is a fraction. If the fraction has an even denominator, the root will be of an even number (like the square root, the 4th root, etc.). Think about it when you square something: -2 • -2 = 4, 2 • 2 = 4. No matter the sign, any number multiplied by itself an even number of times will make a positive number. So, you can't take the square root of a negative number because it is impossible to get a negative number when squaring! This applies to ALL even roots/exponents. So, (-1)^½ does not exist! Look: (-1)^½ becomes √(-1) which is an imaginary number!

Answer: 0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A Houston department store sampled 80 items sold in January and found that 8 of the items were returned.
In other words, sample size : <em>n</em>=1040
Number of items returned : <em>x</em>= 8
Let <em>p</em> be the proportion of items returned for the population of sales transactions at the Houston store.
As per sample , the sample proportion of items returned for the population of sales transactions at the Houston store is :
As we know that , <em>the sample proportion is the best estimate of the population proportion.</em>
Therefore,a point estimate of the proportion of items returned for the population of sales transactions at the Houston store is 0.1.
