<span>f(x) = one eighth (x - 2)^2 - 1
Since a parabola is the curve such that all points on the curve have the same distance from the directrix as the distance from the point to the focus.With that in mind, we can quickly determine 3 points on the parabola. The 1st point will be midway between the focus and the directrix, So:
(2, (1 + -3)/2) = (2, -2/2) = (2,-1).
The other 2 points will have the same y-coordinate as the focus, but let offset on the x-axis by the distance from the focus to the directrix. Since the distance is (1 - -3) = 4, that means the other 2 points will be (2 - 4, 1) and (2 + 4, 1) which are (-2, 1) and (6, 1). The closest point to the focus will have the same x-coordinate as the focus, so the term will be (x-2)^2. This eliminates the functions "f(x) = -one eighth (x + 2)^2 - 1" and "f(x) = -one half (x + 2)^2 - 1" from consideration since their x term is incorrect, leaving only "f(x) = one eighth (x - 2)^2 - 1" and "f(x) = one half (x - 2)^2 + 1" as possible choices. Let's plug in the value 6 for x and see what y value we get from squaring (x-2)^2. So:
(x-2)^2
(6-2)^2 = 4^2 = 16
Now which option is equal to 1? Is it one eighth of 16 minus 1, or one half of 16 plus 1?
16/8 - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1
16/2 + 1 = 8 + 1 = 9
Therefore the answer is "f(x) = one eighth (x - 2)^2 - 1"</span>
Answer: The margin of error tells that the proportion of the a random sample women said they do not get enough time for themselves can be differ by ±3% than the estimated proportion (47%)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A New York Times poll found that 47% of the women said they do not get enough time for themselves.
The poll announced a margin of error of ± 3% for 95% confidence in its conclusions.
A margin of error gives that value of percentage error of in results by which any random value will differ from the real population value.
Here the margin of error tells that the proportion of the a random sample women said they do not get enough time for themselves can be differ by ±3% than the estimated proportion (47%).
Answer:
Dan is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I calculated the amount of hours that the graph shows in total, coming up with a total of 3,085 hours. I do this by multiplying the number of adults surveyed by the number of hours they spent. So for the first column, (80+70)*1, second column, (90+80)*2, third column, (135+130)*3, fourth column, (140+135)*4, and fifth column, (65+75)*5 if you get what I mean. Then I add up all values. Knowing that there were two sets of 500 American adults interviewed already, I came to the conclusion that 1,000 total adults were surveyed. Finally, I divided the total number of hours(3,085) by the total number of adults interviewed (1,000) to get a mean of 3.085 hours, rounding it to 3 hours and proving that Dan is correct.
The answer is (D) hope the is helps
First, we have to get the fractions to common denominators.
4/5 = 16/20
1/4 = 5/20
5 5/20 - 3 16/20 = 1 9/20
She put 1 9/20 extra cups in.
