Given:

The graph of a quadratic function passes through the points (5,31) (3,11) (0,11).

To find:

The equation of the quadratic function.

Solution:

A quadratic function is defined as:

y=ax^2+bx+c            ...(i)

It is passes through the point (0,11). So, substitute x=0,y=11 in (i).

11=a(0)^2+b(0)+c

11=c

Putting c=11 in (i), we get

y=ax^2+bx+11               ...(ii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (5,31). So, substitute x=5,y=31 in (ii).

31=a(5)^2+b(5)+11

31-11=a(25)+5b

20=25a+5b

Divide both sides by 5.

4=5a+b                  ...(iii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (3,11). So, substitute x=3,y=11 in (ii).

11=a(3)^2+b(3)+11

11-11=a(9)+3b

0=9a+3b

Divide both sides by 3.

0=3a+b                 ...(iv)

Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get

4-0=5a+b-3a-b

4=2a

\dfrac{4}{2}=a

2=a

Putting a=2 in (iv), we get

0=3(2)+b

0=6+b

-6=b

Putting a=2,b=-6 in (ii), we get

y=(2)x^2+(-6)x+11

y=2x^2-6x+11

Therefore, the required quadratic equation is y=2x^2-6x+11.

The number of knots in a particular type of wood can be modeled by a Poisson distribution with an average of 1.4 knots in 10 cub
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Probability that a 20- cubic foot block of wood has at most 1 knot P (X<=1) = 0.5918

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of knot= 1.4

Wavelength = 1.4

Geometric probability is given by:

P(X= K) = wavelength ^k × e^-wavelegth

P(X=0) = (1.4^0 × e^-1.4)/0!

P(X=0) = 1 × 0.2466 = 0.2466

P(X=1) = 1.4^1 × e^-1.4

P(X=1)= 1.4×0.2466= 0.3452

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

P(X<=1) = 0.2466 + 0.3452 = 0.5918
