Answer:

a=2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. y=a(x-x1)(x-x2) is a formula for a parabola, x1 and x2 being points where y=0 so in the equation y=a(x-3)(x+2), you know

x1=3, x2=-2

2. Find distance between 3 and -2, which is 5

3. bh/2=A --> 5h/2=10 --> h=4  (h is height)

4. when x=0, y=-6a, y=a(0-3)(0+2)

5. because parabola opens upward, the point of the vertex must be (_, -4)

6. -6a= -4

     a=2/3

A.  (7/13)·(1/3)=7/39.       P=7/39
B.  (6/13)·(2/3)=12/39.    P=12/39
C.  (7/13)·(2/3)=14/39.    P=14/39
D.  (6/13)·(1/3)=6/39.      P=6/39

All the numbers from Bag B were written as thirds cause their probabilities could be simplified to make multiplying easier

SELECT ALL THAT APPLY. In a population of 250 students, 60% are Whites, 20% are Latinos, 15% are Blacks, and 5% others. In a pro
Sophie [7]

In a proportionate stratified sample of 120, there are 72 Whites, 24 Latinos, 18 Blacks and 6  others.

Proportionate Stratified Sample

A proportionate stratified sample is one in which the size of the strata in the sample is proportional to the size of the strata in the population; in other words, the chance of selecting a unit from a stratum depends on the relative size of that stratum in the population.

Calculating the Proportionate Stratified Sample

The given percentage of -

Whites = 60%

Latinos = 20%

Blacks = 5%

Strength of the sample = 120

⇒ Number of Whites = 60% of 120

= 0.6 × 120

=72

Number of Latinos = 20% of 120

= 0.2 × 120

=24

Proportionate Stratified Sample of Blacks and Others

Count of Blacks = 15 % of 120

= 0.15 × 120

= 18

Count of others = 5% of 120

= 0.05 × 120

6

Thus, in a Proportionate Stratified Sample of 120, 72 are Whites, 24 are Latinos, 18 are Blacks, and 6 are others.

Karan needs to choose between two gym plans. he can either pay a $150 joining fee and a $10 monthly fee, or he can pay a $50 joi
Eva8 [605]

Solution:

Let the cumulative costs of the plans will be equal after x months.

Then we can write

150+10x=50+300x\\ \\ 150-50=300x-10x\\ \\ 100=290x\\ \\ x=\frac{100}{290}\\ \\ x=\frac{10}{29}

Hence after 10/29th Month cost will be equal.

and that cost=150+\frac{10}{29} *10=\frac{4450}{29} $
