The path is in the shape of a parabola, the horizontal length is 24, so the middle point is at x=12, the symmetry line is x=12, the highest point (the vertex) is at (12,6)
the equation in vertex form is y=a(x-12)²+6
next, find a by using either one of the two points, the starting point (0,0) or the end point (0,24). obviously (0,0) is easier to calculate:
0=a(0-12)² +6
a=-1/24
so the quadratic equation is y=-
the equation in vertex form is y=a(x-12)²+6
next, find a by using either one of the two points, the starting point (0,0) or the end point (0,24). obviously (0,0) is easier to calculate:
0=a(0-12)² +6
a=-1/24
so the quadratic equation is y=-
The value of a is 72.74.
<h3>What is Probability ?</h3>Probability is the study of likeliness of an event to happen.
It is given that
The mean of the distribution is 70
Standard deviation is 2
p( x<a) = 0.9147
a = ?
From Z table
For p ( p < 0.9147) , z = 1.37
a = 70+ 2*1.37
a = 72.74
Therefore the value of a is 72.74.
