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

shutvik [7]

Answer:

5 containers high

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Given :

Width = 20 containers

Length = 50 containers

Total containers = 5000

Hence,

Total containers = width * length * height

5000 = 20 * 50 * height

5000 = 1000 * height

Height = 5000 / 1000

Height = 5 containers

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Internal validity

Step-by-step explanation:

The internal validity here is weak

Internal validity describes the extent to which an evidence weighs the cause and effect claim. In this study, the internal validity that brought about failure in the new exam is mainly due to the environment where the exam was written and not the new exam itself.

So this validity is weak in claiming that the new exam is not a good substitute for the old exam.

Putting them in the same good environment might help the researchers to draw a better conclusion.

Answer:

  3 feet per second

Step-by-step explanation:

If the time is multiplied by 2, the inverse relationship tells you the speed is multiplied by 1/2.

  (1/2)(6 ft/s) = 3 ft/s

The swimmer's average speed is 3 ft/s.

How can you tell by looking at a graph if there is a proportional relationship?
IgorLugansk [536]
If there is a porpotional relationship then it there will be a pattern like, 7, 14, 21 etc. You can tell because the line will go straight in a perfect line and won't go at a different andle from the rest of the line.
