Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the parabola be y=a(x+5)²+0

or y=a(x+5)²

∵ it passes through (-3,1)

1=a(-3+5)²

4a=1

a=1/4

so parabola is y=1/4(x+5)²

Eleven percent of the pens made by Apex are defective.

sergiy2304 [10]

Let A be the event 'made by Apex and defective':
P(A) = 0.67 x 0.11 = 0.0737
Let B be the event 'made by B-ink and defective':
P(B) = 0.33 x 0.06 = 0.0198
Let C be the event 'made by Apex or B-ink and defective':
P(C) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.0737 + 0.0198 = 0.0935
P(defective and made by Apex) = 0.0737/0.0935 = 0.788
The answer is 0.788 or 78.8%.
