Answer:

f(x) = -3(x+3)(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -3 & 1; f(x) = 9

f(x) = a(x-r1)(x-r2)

f(0) = a(x-r1)(x-r2) = 9; 9 = a(0-(-3))(0-1)

9 = a(3)(-1); 9 = a(-3)

a = -3

f(x) = -3(x+3)(x-1)

Answer:

f(x) = -3x^2 - 6x + 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the x intercepts are - 3 and 1 we can write it as:

f(x) = a(x - 1)(x + 3)    where a is a constant to be found.

As the - intercept is at (0, 9),  x =0 when f(x) = 9 so we can also write:

a( 0 - 1)(0 + 3) = 9

(-1)(3)a = 9

a = 9 / -3

= -3.

So the equation is f(x) = -3(x - 1)(x + 3)

In expanded form it is

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

= -3x^2 - 6x + 9.

April and Bill went to the grocery store to buy chocolate bars. April bought 4 small chocolate bars and 6 large chocolate bars ,
Elena-2011 [213]

Step-by-step explanation:

To  do this equation, we could put it in terms of algebra, lets say the large chocolate bars are represented by L and the small bars by S

April

4S + 6L = $16.50

Bill

4S + 3L = $11.25

Looking at this, we can see that the difference between the two purchases is that Bill bought three less large chocolate bars, this means the difference in total cost equals three large chocolate bars. Using this knowledge.

$16.50 minus $11.25 = $5.25

$5.25 = Three Large Bars

Divide this by three to get the cost of one large bar.

$1.75 is the cost of one single large bar.

Fed [463]

Answer:

The answer is "Type 1 error".

Step-by-step explanation:

The error of type I, frequently known as a 'false positive': its error in judgment that perhaps a null hypothesis is simply rejected. This is the mistake of accepting a possible (actual interest hypothesis) hypothesis whenever the results could be attributed to chance since the researchers deny, if valid, the null hypothesis.
