Answer: 2.09
Step-by-step explanation:
After plotting all the three points, we get the parabolic equation in the form is 2(x - 1)²-34.
<h3>What is parabola?</h3>
Any point on a parabola, which has the shape of a U, is situated at an equal distance from the focus, a fixed point, and the directrix, a fixed line.
General equation of the quadratic equation,
Y = ax² + bx +c
Given points,
(-2, 0),
(-1, -10),
(4, 0).
Putting the points in the general equation,
Putting (-2, 0), we get
0 = 4a - 2b + c
Putting (-1, -10), we get
-10 = a - b +c
Putting (4, 0), we get
0 = 16a + 4b +c
Solving all equations we get,
a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -16
After putting the values,
Y = 2x²- 4x- 16
2(x² - 2x - 8)
2(x²- 2x + 1 - 1 - 16)
=2(x - 1)²-34
Hence we get the required equation in the parabolic form.

<h2>
Answer with explanation:</h2><h2 />
The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-
Given : Sample size : n= 5, since n<30 , so the test we use here is t-test.
Sample mean : 
Standard deviation: 
Significance level : 
By using the standard normal distribution table , the critical value corresponds to the given significance level will be :-
Now, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas will be :-
Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Texas = (0.068, 3.732)
(2,8) and (-2,10)
<u>y₂</u><u> </u><u>- y₁</u> used to find the slope<u>

-2-2 = -4 m=-1/2
<u>
</u>plug one of the coordinates and the slope into y=mx+b, and solve
<u />8=-1/2(2)+b
8=-1+b
9=b
Final Answer: y = -1/2x + 9
