Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since G(0) = g(0) = 20, the parabolic graphs of these functions share a y-intercept: (0, 20).
Completing the square puts these equations into vertex form, which simplifies comparisons of the graphs:
G(x) = 2x^2 - 12x + 20 becomes
2(x^2 - 6x + 9 - 9) + 20, or
2(x - 3)^2 - 18 + 20, or 2(x - 3)^2 + 2. Comparing this result to
a(x - h)^2 + k, we see that the vertex is located at (3, 2).
Going through the same process for g(x) 2x^2+12x+20, we get:
g(x) = 2(x + 3)^2 + 2, whose vertex is at (-3, 2).

Answer:
0.2143 = 21.43% probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.
Step-by-step explanation:
The buckets are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:
In which:
x is the number of sucesses.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
In this question:
8 covered buckets, so N = 8.
4 buckets are selected, so n = 4.
2 contain a ball, which means that k = 2.
Find the probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.
This is P(X = 2). So
0.2143 = 21.43% probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.
Answer:
- Library 2 charges more for each book loaned.
- Library 1 has a cheaper subscription fee.
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the table, we can write the equation for the cost of borrowing from Library 2 using the two-point form of the equation of a line:
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
for (x1, y1) = (2, 15.50) and (x2, y2) = (8, 26) this equation becomes ...
y = (26 -15.50)/(8 -2)(x -2) +15.50 . . . . . fill in the values
y = (10.50/6)(x -2) +15.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify a bit
y = 1.75x -3.50 +15.50 . . . . . . simplify more
In the above, we have x = number of books; y = cost. We can use "n" and "C" for those, respectively, as in the equation for Library 1. Then the monthly cost for Library 2 is ...
C = 12 + 1.75n . . . . . . . arranged to the same form as for Library 1
_____
Now, we can answer the questions.
Library 2 charges more for each book loaned. (1.75 vs 1.50 for Library 1)
Library 1 has a cheaper subscription fee. (10 vs 12 for Library 2)
_____
The numbers in the cost equations are ...
C = (subscription fee) + (cost per book loaned)·n
Answer:
y = -1/2x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If it's parallel, that means that the slope is the opposite of the one in the given equation, meaning that 2 would be flipped and turned negative into -1/2.
Then, fill in the x and y values to get the y-intercept.
1 = -1/2(-6) + b
1 = 3 + b
-2 = b
So your answer is y = -1/2x - 2
75 x 0.72 is the answer, you can type it into a calculator
