Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Put -2 where x is and do the arithmetic.
f(x) = 2x² -3
f(-2) = 2(-2)² -3 = 2(-2)(-2) -3 = 8 -3
f(-2) = 5
1. y axis can repeat/x cannot repeat
2. Parabola symmetrically across y-axis
Answer:
The value of x that makes the equation equal to 0 is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, we first must create the composite function using the designated operation. The operation is addition, so we just add them together.
f(x) + g(x) = (f+g)(x)
(x^2 - 2x) + (6x + 4) = (f+g)(x)
x^2 + 4x + 4 = (f+g)(x)
Now, in order to find when this is equal to 0, we need to factor.
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 0
(x + 2)(x + 2) = 0
When it is fully factored, we can set each parenthesis equal to 0 in order to find the value. Since the parenthesis are exactly the same, we only have to do this once.
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
Roughly 1.7 percent of the bands are shorter than 3cm. We calculate the z score of the data point in standard distribution. By definition of z score, we use score minus mean divided by standard deviation. z=(3-6)/1.5=-2. A z score of -2 corresponds to approximately 1.7%, in other words, roughly 1.7 percent of data is less than 3cm.
