2/32. Divide 32 by 4 to equal 8, and then divide 8 by 3 because that’s how much you painted, a third of a fourth
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant tells you where the graph of the parabola goes through the x-axis, if at all. If the discriminant is negative there are no real zeros and the parabola does not cross or touch the x-axis; if the discriminant is positive the parabola will go through the x axis in 2 places; if the discriminant is 0 the parabola will touch the x-axis in 1 place. Our discriminant is 0 since the parabola only touches the x-axis but does not go through.
The mean is often the default measure of center because it includes every data point, ie its more representative. However, if you have outliers then the mean will be skewed toward the outlier. For example, with home prices, very expensive houses will make the mean larger than it should be if you focused on the main cluster of data. This is why the median home price is often measured and reported (rather than the mean home price).
