Answer:
Dependent: Cost of the ride.
Independent : Number of rides.
Step-by-step explanation:
The independent variable is the variable what we change and the dependent variable is the variables which changes because of that changes.
Here the total cost of ride changes for any change in the number of rides.
Hence, the number of rides is the independent variable and the total cost of ride is the dependent variable
The results are biased.
When you go to a particular sporting event and ask someone their favorite sport, they are more likely to respond the sport that they're watching at that moment. This creates bias.

v(x) has the largest value when x=4.
Answer:
-4+7h
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that equation of parabola is
y =ax² + bx + c
Since parabola passes through the point (2,−15) then
−15 = 4a + 2b + c
Since parabola passes through the point (-5,-29), then
−29 = 25a − 5b + c
Since parabola passes through the point (−3,−5), then
−5 = 9a − 3b + c
Thus, we obtained following system:
4a + 2b + c = −15
25a − 5b + c = −29
9a − 3b + c = −5
Solving it we get that
a = −2, b = −4, c = 1
Thus, equation of parabola is
y = −2x²− 4x + 1

Rewriting in the form of
(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)
i) -2x² - 4x + 1 = y
ii) -3x² - 7x = y - 11
(-3x² and -7x are isolated)
iii) -3x² - 7x - 49/36 = y - 1 - 49/36
(Adding -49/36 to both sides to get perfect square on LHS)
iv) -3(x² + 7/3x + 49/36) = y - 3
(Taking out -3 common from LHS)
v) -3(x + 7/6)² = y - 445/36
vi) (x + 7/6)² = -⅓(y - 445/36)
(Shifting -⅓ to RHS)
vii) (x + 1)² = 4(-1/12)(y - 445/36)
(Rewriting in the form of 4(-1/12) ; This is 4p)
So, after rewriting the equation would be -
(x + 7/6)² = 4(-⅛)(y - 445/36)
