Answer:

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the h coordinate of the vertex as 1, but in order to find the k coordinate, you have to complete the square on the parabola.  The first few steps are as follows.  Set the parabola equal to 0 so you can solve for the vertex.  Separate the x terms from the constant by moving the constant to the other side of the equals sign.  The coefficient HAS to be a +1 (ours is a -2 so we have to factor it out).  Let's start there.  The first 2 steps result in this polynomial:

-2x^2+4x=-1.  Now we factor out the -2:

-2(x^2-2x)=-1.  Now we complete the square.  This process is to take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides.  Our linear term is 2x.  Half of 2 is 1, and 1 squared is 1.  We add 1 into the set of parenthesis.  But we actually added into the parenthesis is +1(-2).  The -2 out front is a multiplier and we cannot ignore it.  Adding in to both sides looks like this:

-2(x^2-2x+1)=-1-2.  Simplifying gives us this:

-2(x^2-2x+1)=-3

On the left we have created a perfect square binomial which reflects the h coordinate of the vertex.  Stating this binomial and moving the -3 over by addition and setting the polynomial equal to y:

-2(x-1)^2+3=y

From this form,

y=-a(x-h)^2+k

you can determine the coordinates of the vertex to be (1, 3)

A coin is tossed 10 times resulting in 7 heads and 3 tails. The same coin is tossed 1000 times resulting in 510 heads and 490 ta
KiRa [710]
The answer is <span>C. 50%.

The theoretical probability has nothing to do with the experiments. So, we will forget results of the experiment and think about theoretical probability. A coin has two sides - head and tail. The probability to get head is 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%. This is because if you toss the coin and you get head, head is one probability of two probability in total (head and tail). The same situation is with tail. Tail is .</span><span>one probability of two probability in total (head and tail).</span>
