denis-greek [22]

Answer:

(-1,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both x and y values by 1/3 or divide both by 3.

How do you determine if a relation is quadratic by calculation differences, analyzing a graph, examining the degree in an equati

Kryger [21]

1) We can determine by the table of values whether a function is a quadratic one by considering this example:

x | y 1st difference 2nd difference

0 0 3 -0 = 3 7-3 = 4

1 3 10 -3 = 7 11 -7 = 4

2 10 21 -10 =11 15 -11 = 4

3 21 36-21 = 15 19-5 = 4

4 36 55-36= 19

5 55

2) Let's subtract the values of y this way:

3 -0 = 3

10 -3 = 7

21 -10 = 11

36 -21 = 15

55 -36 = 19

Now let's subtract the differences we've just found:

7 -3 = 4

11-7 = 4

15-11 = 4

19-15 = 4

So, if the "second difference" is constant (same result) then it means we have a quadratic function just by analyzing the table.

3) Hence, we can determine if this is a quadratic relation calculating the second difference of the y-values if the second difference yields the same value. The graph must be a parabola and the highest coefficient must be 2

A real estate agent has 17 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

0.0011 = 0.11% probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are sold, or they are not. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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