Answer:
vertex = (2, - 9 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic in standard form : ax² + bx + c : a ≠ 0
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
= -
x² - 4x - 5 ← is in standard form
with a = 1, b = - 4, thus
= -
= 2
Substitute this value into the quadratic for corresponding value of y
(2)² - 4(2) - 5 = 4 - 8 - 5 = - 9
vertex = (2, - 9 )

Answer:
0.0076 = 0.76% probability that all five plants emerged from treated seeds
Step-by-step explanation:
The plants were chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
In this question:
6 + 6 = 12 seeds, which means that
6 treated, which means that
Five sprouted, which means that
What is the probability that all five plants emerged from treated seeds?
This is P(X = 5). So
0.0076 = 0.76% probability that all five plants emerged from treated seeds
