<u>Answer:</u>

x^2 + x - 72 = 0

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given product of two consecutive odd integers is equal to 72.

Let one integer be x , then since these are consecutive and odd so the other integer will be equal to x + 1.  

Their product is equal to 72. So,

x * (x + 1) = 72

=> x^2 + x = 72

=>  x^2 + x - 72 = 0 is the required quadratic equation.

What is the set fee, or initial value, of this function
Ber [7]
Answer:
The set fee would be $15

Explanation:
The set fee is the starting value. This means that it is the value of the y at x = 0 (y-intercept).

To get the set fee, we would first need to get the equation of the line.

Equation of the linear line has the following general formula:
y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

1- getting the slope:
we are given two points which are:
(20,25) and (50,40)
the slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}=  \frac{40-25}{50-20} = 0.5

The equation now is:
y = 0.5x + c

2- getting the value of the y-intercept:
To get the value of the c, we will use any of the given points, substitute in the equation and solve for c.
I will choose the point (20,25)
y = 0.5x + c
25 = 0.5(20) + c
25 = 10 + c
c = 15

The equation of the line representing the scenario is:
y = 0.5x + 15

Now, we know that the value of the c is the y-intercept which is the initial value of the function at x=0.
In our situation, this represents the set fee.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The common difference is same = d = -9

Therefore, the data represent a linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x                        y

1                         4

2                        -5

3                        -14

4                        -23

5                         -32

Finding the common difference between all the adjacent terms of y-values

d = -5 - 4 = -6,

d = -14 - (-5) = -14+5 = -9

d = -23 - (-14) = -23 + 14 = -9

d = -32 - (-23) = -32 + 23 = -9

It is clear that the common difference between all the adjacent terms is same.

Thus,

d = -9

We know that when y varies directly with x, the function is a linear function.

Here, it is clear that each x value varies 1 unit, and each y value varies -9 units.

i.e. The common difference is same = d = -9

Therefore, the data represent a linear function.

A researcher is interested in the lengths of brook trout, which are known to be approximately Normally distributed with mean 80
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

P(X

And we can find this probability with the normal standard distirbution or excel and we got:

P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the lenghts of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(80,5)  

Where \mu=80 and \sigma=5

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability with the normal standard distirbution or excel and we got:

P(z
