The equation in standard form is 2x^2 + 7x - 15=0. Factoring it gives you (2x-3)(x+5)= 0. That's the first one. The second one requires you to now your formula for the axis of symmetry which is x = -b/2a with a and b coming from your quadratic. Your a is -1 and your b is -2, so your axis of symmetry is
x= -(-2)/2(-1) which is x = 2/-2 which is x = -1. That -1 is the x coordinate of the vertex. You could plug that back into the equation and solve it for y, which is the easier way, or you could complete the square on the quadratic...let's plug in x to find y. -(-1)^2 - 2(-1)-1 = 0. So the vertex is (-1, 0). That's the first choice given. For the last one, since it is a negative quadratic it will be a mountain instead of a cup, meaning it doesn't open upwards, it opens downwards. Those quadratics will ALWAYS have a max value as opposed to a min value which occurs with an upwards opening parabola. This one is also the first choice because of the way the equation is written. There is no side to side movement (the lack of parenthesis tells us that) so the x coordinate for the vertex is 0. The -1 tells us that it has moved down from the origin 1 unit; hence the y coordinate is -1. The vertex is a max at (0, -1)
Answer:
a

b

Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 103
The sample mean of sag is 
The sample mean of swells is 
The standard deviation of sag is 
The standard deviation of swells is 
The number of swell for a randomly selected transformer is k = 100
The number of sag for a randomly selected transformer is c = 400
Generally the z-score for the number of swells is mathematically represented as

=> 
=> 
Generally the z-score for the number of sags is mathematically represented as



20/2.5 = 8
So 8 movies can be shown in 20 hours.
Answer:
15.9 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
the information we have is:
Perimeter: 
Number of sides of the polygon: 
since each side has equal length, we can use the following equation to find the measure of one side of the polygon, the equation for perimeter:

where n is the number of sides and
is the length of each side.
So we clear for
and we get:

and subtituting the known values:

each side is 15.6 centimeters long
