Write an equation for a quadratic function that has x intercepts (-3, 0) and (5, 0)

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

One possible equation is $f(x) = (x + 3)\, (x - 5)$ , which is equivalent to $f(x) = x^{2} - 2\, x - 15$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor theorem states that if $x = x_{0}$ (where $x_{0}$ is a constant) is a root of a function, $(x - x_{0})$ would be a factor of that function.

The question states that $(-3,\, 0)$ and $(5,\, 0)$ are $x$ -intercepts of this function. In other words, $x = -3$ and $x = 5$ would both set the value of this quadratic function to $0$ . Thus, $x = -3\!$ and $x = 5\!$ would be two roots of this function.

By the factor theorem, $(x - (-3))$ and $(x - 5)$ would be two factors of this function.

Because the function in this question is quadratic, $(x - (-3))$ and $(x - 5)$ would be the only two factors of this function. In other words, for some constant $a$ ( $a \ne 0$ ):

$f(x) = a\, (x - (-3))\, (x - 5)$ .

Simplify to obtain:

$f(x) = a\, (x + 3)\, (x - 5)$ .

Expand this expression to obtain:

$f(x) = a\, (x^{2} - 2\, x - 15)$ .

(Quadratic functions are polynomials of degree two. If this function has any factor other than $(x - (-3))$ and $(x - 5)$ , expanding the expression would give a polynomial of degree at least three- not quadratic.)

Every non-zero value of $a$ corresponds to a distinct quadratic function with $x$ -intercepts $(-3,\, 0)$ and $(5,\, 0)$ . For example, with $a = 1$ :

$f(x) = (x + 3)\, (x - 5)$ , or equivalently,

$f(x) = x^{2} - 2\, x - 15$ .

The average triglyceride level of adult males is 126 milligrams per deciliter. You want to determine whether the true mean male

crimeas [40]

Answer: The test statistic is 1.30 and the p-value is 0.1167.

Step-by-step explanation:

A test statistic is a random variable which is calculated from sample data and also used in a hypothesis test. It can also be used to know whether to reject the null hypothesis.

The test statistic is 1.30 and the p-value is 0.1167. The solution is attached below

Find the area of the figure.

ipn [44]

Answer:

89m

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the rectangle (ignoring the missing triangle inside). The area of the rectangle is its base times its height, which is 8*13=104.

Next, find the area of the triangle. The area of the triangle is its base times height, divided by two.

The width of one side of the rectangle is 13, and the width of the side of the rectangle is 8 (4 + 4). Therefore, subtract 8 from 13 and the missing section in the side of the rectangle is 5. 5 is equal to the base of the triangle.

The height of the triangle is given, which is 6. As stated before, the area of a triangle is its base times height divided by two, which is 5*6/2 in this case. The area of the triangle is equal to 15.

Now, subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle. 104-15=89.
