Answer:

\displaystyle f(x)=-\frac{1}{2}(x+1)^2+6

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write the equation for a quadratic function in vertex form with vertex at (-1, 6) that passes through the point (-3, 4).

Vertex form is given by:

\displaystyle f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k

Where (<em>h, k</em>) is the vertex and <em>a</em> is the leading coefficient.

Since our vertex is at (-1, 6), <em>h</em> = -1 and <em>k</em> = 6. Substitute:

f(x)=a(x-(-1))^2+(6)

Simplify:

f(x)=a(x+1)^2+6

Next, since the quadratic passes through the point (-3, 4), f(x) = 4 when <em>x</em> = -3. Substitute:

(4)=a(-3+1)^2+6

Solve for <em>a</em>. Simplify:

-2=a(-2)^2

Hence:

\displaystyle -2=4a\Rightarrow a=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, our function in vertex form is:

\displaystyle f(x)=-\frac{1}{2}(x+1)^2+6

What is the midpoint between 3.99 and 4
asambeis [7]

Answer:  

3.995

Step-by-step explanation:

A midpoint is defined as a point that is exactly in the middle between two other points. The midpoint between two numbers is the number exactly in the middle of the two numbers. Calculating the midpoint is the same thing as calculating the average of two numbers. Therefore, you can calculate the midpoint between any two numbers by adding them together and dividing by two.

These data show the number of miles each of the 9 members of a track team ran for the week. 11 11.5 10.5 17 14.5 14.5 18 17 19 W
Vitek1552 [10]
Given:
<span>11 11.5 10.5 17 14.5 14.5 18 17 19

Arrange in chronological order from least to greatest.
10.5 ; 11 ; 11.5 ; 14.5 ; 14.5 ; 17 ; 17 ; 18 ; 19

</span><span>I used an online lower and upper fence calculator to get the necessary data.

Minimum: 10.5
Maximum: 19
Q1: 11.25
Q2 or median: 14.5
Q3: 17.5

Interquartile range can be solved by subtracting the value of Q1 from the value of Q3

IQR = Q3 - Q1
IQR = 17.5 - 11.25
IQR =  6.25  CHOICE A. </span>

Turner measured the floor of his storage unit, which is rectangular. It is 48 feet wide and 52 feet from one corner to the oppos
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

<u>The storage unit is 20 feet long.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the unknown side or length of the storage unit:

With the information given, we have a right triangle with 52 feet of hypotenuse and 48 feet as one of its sides and width of the storage unit.

Length of the storage unit ² = Hypotenuse ² - Width of the storage unit ²

Replacing with the real values:

Length of the storage unit ² = 52² - 48²

Length of the storage unit ² = 2,704 - 2,304

Length of the storage unit ² = 400

√Length of the storage unit ² = √400

<u>Length of the storage unit = 20 feet</u>
