If the parabola has y = -4 at both x = 2 and x = 3, then since a parabola is symmetric, its axis of symmetry must be between x = 2 and x = 3, or at x = 5/2. Our general equation can then be:
y = a(x - 5/2)^2 + k
Substitute (1, -2): -2 = a(-3/2)^2 + k
-2 = 9a/4 + k
Substitute (2, -4): -4 = a(-1/2)^2 + k
-4 = a/4 + k
Subtracting: 2 = 2a, so a = 1. Substituting back gives k = -17/4.
So the equation is y = (x - 5/2)^2 - 17/4
Expanding: y = x^2 - 5x + 25/4 - 17/4
y = x^2 - 5x + 2 (This is the standard form.)

Its 1400 divided by 224 so it will be 6.25 times
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the length of pregnancy.
X is N(268, 15)
a) Prob of pregnancy lasting 307 days or longer
= P(X>307) = 
=0.5-0.4953
=0.0047
b) Lowest 2% is 2nd percentile
Z=-2.55
X score = 268-2.55(15)
= 229.75 days
If length of days >230 days then it is not premature.
The answer is 5 have a great day
