The answer is a, -8. first you have to set up the equation -3x=24 split it down the middle, then you have to get rid of the x on one side, so you have to do the opposite, right now it’s saying -3*x, opposite of multiplication is division. so you take -3/-3 and you’re left with x, then you have to do the same to the other side, 24/-3 and you get -8. so x=-8

What is the y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) = (x – 8)(x + 3)? (8,0) (0,3) (0,–24) (–5,0)
DiKsa [7]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  " (0, 24) " .
___________________________________________________________

Explanation:
___________________________________________________________

Given the quadratic function:
___________________________________________________________

          →  "  y = (x <span>− 8) (x + 3) "  ;   </span>←  Note:  Replace the "f(x)" with: "y" ; 

→  Find the "y-intercept".
___________________________________________________________

→  Note:  The "y-intercept" is the coordinate of the point(s) of the graph of the equation at which the graph crosses the "x-axis" when "x = 0" . 

   → So;  we set plug in "0" for "x" into our equation; and solve for "y" ; 

          → " y = (x − 8) (x + 3) " ;

          →   y = (0 − 8) (0 + 3)  ; 

          →   y = (-8) * (3)  ;  
 
          →   y = - 24 ; 
___________________________________________________________

So, the "y -intercept" of the <em><u>given</u></em> quadratic function is:
 
the point at which:  "x = 0 ; y = -24 " ;

      →  that is; the point  the coordinates:  " (0, - 24) " ;
___________________________________________________________
  →  which is:  Answer choice:  [C]:  " (0, - 24) " .

The equation of a parabola is y=x^2–4x+13. Write the equation in vertex form.
Korolek [52]

Answer:

y = (x - 2)² + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the equation in vertex form use the method of completing the square.

Add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 4x

y = x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 - 4 + 13

  = (x - 2)² + 9 ← in vertex form

What are the possible steps involved in solving the equation shown? Select three options. 3.5 + 1.2(6.3 – 7x) = 9.38 Add 3.5 and
motikmotik

Answer:

1) Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x

2)Combine 3.5 and 7.56

3)Subtract 11.06 from both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5 + 1.2(6.3 - 7x) = 9.38

Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x

3.5 + 1.2* 6.3 - 1.2 * 7x = 9.38

        3.5 + 7.56 - 8.4x = 9.38

Combine 3.5 and 7.56

11.06 - 8.4x = 9.38

Subtract 11.06 from both sides

11.06 - 8.4x -11.06 = 9.38 - 11.06

                    -8.4x = -1.68

To find solution:

Divide both sides by (-8.4)

-8.4x/-8.4 = -1.68/-8.4

 x = 0.02

The mean for a data set is 60. The Z-score for
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

D. a = 60 and b = 58.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Z-score for data point a is 0.

This means that a is the mean, that is, a = 60.

The z-score for data point b is -0.4.

This means that b must be a value below the mean, that is, a value below 60.

The option that satisfies a = 60 and b < 60 is option D, which is the answer.
