Answer:

f(x) = -1(x+1)² + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -x² - 2x + 8

This is a down-opening parabola. Put the equation into vertex form. The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum.

factor out the leading coefficient

f(x) = -1(x²+2x) + 8

Complete the square

 coefficient of x term: 2

 divide in half: 1

 square it: 1²

 use 1² to complete the square:

f(x) = -1(x²+2x+1²) + 1² + 8

f(x) = -1(x+1)² + 9

vertex (-1,9)

maximum value of f(x) = 9

find an expression for the area of a rectangle of sides 2x+3 and x-1 given that the perimeter is 28cm what is the value of x
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

4cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

L=(2x+3)

W=(x-1)

P=28cm

A= L*W

A= (2x+3)*(x-1)

open bracket

A= 2x^2-2x+3x-3

collect like terms

A= 2x^2+x-3

P= 2L+2W

P= 2*(2x+3)+2(x-1)

P= 4x+6+2x-2

collect like terms

P= 6x-4

but p= 28

28= 6x-4

28-4= 6x

24= 6x

x= 24/6

x= 4cm

Hence x= 4cm

if you roll a fair 6-sided die 9 times, what is the probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4?
Kay [80]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

For each die, there are only two possible outcomes, either a 3 or a 4 is rolled, or it is not. The result of a roll is independent of any other roll, hence, the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

  • There are 9 rolls, hence n = 9.
  • Of the six sides, 2 are 3 or 4, hence p = \frac{2}{6} = 0.3333

The desired probability is:

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

In which:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

Then

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{9} = 0.026

P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.3333)^{1}.(0.6667)^{8} = 0.117

Then:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.026 + 0.117 = 0.143

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.143 = 0.857

0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.
