<h2>Steps</h2>
  • Standard Form Equation: f(x) = ax² + bx + c

So firstly, since (0,5) is one of our values we can plug it into the standard form equation to solve for the c variable (since 0 will cancel out the a and b variable):

5=a*0^2+b*0+c\\5=c

Now we know that the value of c is 5. Next, plug in (-1,12) into the standard form equation and simplify (remember to also plug in 5 for the c variable):

12=a*(-1)^2+b*(-1)+5\\12=a-b+5\\7=a-b

Next, plug (2,15) into the standard form equation and simplify:

15=a*2^2+b*2+5\\15=4a+2b+5\\10=4a+2b\\5=2a+b

Now, with our last two simplified equations we will create a system of equations:

7=a-b\\5=2a+b

Now, I will be using the elimination method with this system. With the system, add up the equations together and you will get:

12=3a

From here, we can solve for the a variable. With it, just divide both sides by 3:

4=a

Now that we know the value of a, plug it into either equation to solve for the b variable:

7=4-b\\3=-b\\-3=b\\\\5=2(4)+b\\5=8+b\\-3=b

<h2>Answer</h2>

Putting all of our obtained values together, your final answer is:

f(x)=4x^2-3x+5

A study has shown that the daily amount of milk produced by a dairy cow is normally distributed, with a mean of 6.2 gallons and
V125BC [204]

Answer:

5.5 gallons to 6.9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Daily a cow

produces a mean of 6.2 gallons (average

of 6.2 gallons, meaning they already

found the mean, "averaged" it out for

you) with a deviation of 7 gallons ("give

or take" .7 gallons). On any given day

(throw these words out) 68% of the cows

(don't need this information to answer

the question either, thrown in to confuse

you) will produce an amount of milk

within which of the following ranges?

Just subtract the deviation ("give or

take number").7 gallons from the mean

(average (already determined)) 6.2

gallons which is 5.5 gallons THEN add

the deviation ("give or take number").

7 gallons to the mean (average (already

determined)) 6.2 gallons which is 6.9

gallons. Your answer is A 5.5 gallons to

6.9 gallons. You don't even have to go

crazy on the math on this question you

can rule them all out but A immediately

with subtracting .7 from 6.2.

hope it helps!

4. The Blackhawk Eagles scored 4 points more than the Lane Vikings. The
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Lane Viking's Score is 17

Black Eagles's Score  is 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Lane Viking's Score be x and Black Eagles's Score be y.

Black Eagles's Score = 4+ Lane Viking's Score

so y = 4 + x    (Equation 1)

Total Score = 38

Black Eagles's Score + Lane Viking's Score = 38

so y + x =38     (Equation 2)

Putting y's value from Equation 1 in Equation 2

4 + x + x = 38

2x = 38-4

x=34/2

x=17

Putting value of x in Equation 1

y = 4 + 17

y = 21
