Answer:
4x² -20x +61
Step-by-step explanation:
the quadratic equation can be written as (x-root1)(x-root2)
(x-(5/2) -3i) (x-(5/2)+3i), distribute
x² -(5/2)x +3xi -(5/2)x + 25/4 -(15/2)i -3xi +(15/2)i -9i², simplify
x² -(5/2)x -(5/2)x + 25/4 -9i², use the fact that i² =(√-1)² = -1 and substitute i²
x² -(5/2)x -(5/2)x + 25/4 +9, combine like terms and rewrite 9 as 36/4
x² -(10/2)x +25/4 + 36/4, combine like terms and simplify
x² -5x +61/4 is the quadratic expression yet it does not have integer coefficients so multiply by 4 to have all coefficients integers
4x² -20x +61
First, put the numbers in order
A. 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,8,9.....median (middle number) is 5..when there is an odd number of data values, there will only be one median.
B. 14,14,15,16,17,18,19,20....if there is an even number of data points, there will be 2 middle numbers. In that case, u add the 2 middle numbers and divide by 2 to find the median. (16 + 17) / 2 = 33/2 = 16.5 is ur median.
x = 5.25
since there is a scale factor of 1.75, you multiply 3 * 1.75 and get 5.25
hope this is helpful!
