That's a line:
g(x)=0.5*x-1, pick up some x, and get the y.
For instace: x=0, g(0)=y=-1, x=2, g(2)=y=0.
Two pints are enough for a line.

Answer:
D: y = 3x² - 5x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of a quadratic equation is: y = ax² + bx + c
c is the y-intercept
We are given the point (0, -2) which is the y-intercept, so we can rewrite our general form into
y = ax² + bx - 2
We can create a system of equations to solve for a and b. We are given two points.
Equation 1: Take the first point (-2, 20) and plug it into our general equation...
20 = a(-2)² + b(-2) - 2
20 = 4a - 2b - 2
22 = 4a - 2b (add 2 to both sides)
11 = 2a - b (divide both sides by 2 since every coefficient is even)
Equation 2: Take the point (1, -4) and plug it into the general equation
-4 = a(1)² + b(1) - 2
-4 = a + b - 2
-2 = a + b
Now we have our 2 equations:
11 = 2a - b
-2 = a + b
Since the coefficients of b are already have opposite signs, add the two equations together (elimination method)
Now we have
9 = 3a now solve for a...
3 = a (divide by 3 on both sides)
If a = 3, then
-2 = 3 + b
-5 = b
Our equation is
y = 3x² - 5x - 2
This is how to solve this
Answer:
The probability that the two rats are from the first litter is 14.28%, and the probability that the two rats are from the second litter is 34.28%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a cage holds two litter of rats, and one litter comprises one female and five males, while the other litter comprises seven females and two males, and a random selection of two rats is done, to find the probability that the two rats are from the same litter the following calculation must be performed:
6/15 x 5/14 = 0.1428
9/15 x 8/14 = 0.3428
Therefore, the probability that the two rats are from the first litter is 14.28%, and the probability that the two rats are from the second litter is 34.28%.
