Answer:
(-2,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is an upwards opening parabola, the minimum point is at the vertex
We can find the x coordinate of the vertex by
y = 2x^2 +8x +9
where a=2 b =8 and c =9
x = -b/2a
x = -8/(2*2)
= -8/4 = -2
The x coordinate is -2
Now substitute this in to find the y coordinate
y = 2(-2)^2 +8(-2)+9
= 2*4 -16+9
8-16+9
=1
The vertex = (-2,1), which is the minimum point
0.55 as a fraction is 11/20
Answer:
They have the same x-value
f(x) has the greater minimum
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the vertex of a second degree equation, in this case the minimum value, we can use the following equation:
x = -b / 2a
Remember that a second degree equation has the following form:
ax^2 + bx + c
so a = 1, b = -8 and c = 7. Now you have to substitute in the previous equation
x = - (-8) / 2(1)
x = 8 / 2
x = 4
This means that the two functions have the same x-value.
The y value of f(x) would be
f(4) = (4)^2 - 8(4) + 7
f(4) = 16 - 32 + 7
f(4) = -9
So the vertex, or minimun value of f(x) would be at the point (4, -9).
The vertex, or minimun value of g(x) is at the point (4, -4).
So f(x) has a minimum value of -9 and g(x) a minimum value of -4.
Answer:
The correct option are;
1) Could not
2) Is
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters given are;
The survival rate of drivers using seat-belt = 67%
The survival rate of drivers not using seat-belt = 41.5%
The chance of getting the survival rate results without a correlation with the use of seat-belt < 0.0001
Given that the chance of obtaining the given survival rates without the seat-belt having an effect on survival rate is less than 0.01 percent we have;
The probability shows that the sample results <u>could not</u> have occurred by chance. It appears that there <u>is</u> sufficient evidence to conclude that seat-belts do have an effect on survival rate.
Answer
-17
<u>Explanation</u>
y−5x−3 for x = 2 and y = -4
We solve this question by substituting the values of y and x.
y−5x−3 = -4 - 5(2) - 3
= -4 - 10 -3
= -14 - 3
= -17
