Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h. k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
here (h, k) = (- 6, - 1), thus
y = a(x + 6)² - 1
To find a substitute one of the roots into the equation
Using (- 3, 0), then
0 = a(- 3 +6)² - 1
0 = 9a - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )
1 = 9a ( divide both sides by 9 )
a = , thus
y = (x + 6)² - 1 ← in vertex form
Expand factor and simplify
y = (x² + 12x + 36) - 1 ← distribute
y = x² + x + 4 - 1
= x² + x + 3 ← in standard form
Answer:
0.3431
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, it can work well to consider the seeds from the group of 18 that are NOT selected to be part of the group of 15 that are planted.
There are 18C3 = 816 ways to choose 3 seeds from 18 NOT to plant.
We are interested in the number of ways exactly one of the 10 parsley seeds can be chosen NOT to plant. For each of the 10C1 = 10 ways we can ignore exactly 1 parsley seed, there are also 8C2 = 28 ways to ignore two non-parsley seeds from the 8 that are non-parsley seeds.
That is, there are 10×28 = 280 ways to choose to ignore 1 parsley seed and 2 non-parsley seeds.
So, the probability of interest is 280/816 ≈ 0.3431.
___
The notation nCk is used to represent the expression n!/(k!(n-k)!), the number of ways k objects can be chosen from a group of n. It can be pronounced "n choose k".
Answer:
B. 3 divided by eight
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 means 3 divided by 8
A fraction bar is division
The answer to the question
Answer. Option B. 0.8 cents.
Solution:
With a 5-pound box of detergent will wash 20 loads of laundry, then with a 15-pound box (5*3) of detergent will wash 20*3=60 loads of laundry, and you would pay $10.00.
To wash 60 loads of laundry with 5-pound box, you would need three 5-pound box, and you would pay $3.50*3=$10.50.
Then you would save in total $10.50-$10.00=$0.50
And per load, you would save: $0.50/60=$0.008=0.008*100 cents=0.8 cents
