Which statement describes the inverse of m(x) = x2 – 17x?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The \ domain \ restriction \ x \geq \dfrac{17}{2} \ results \ in \ m^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{x + \dfrac{289}{4} }}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information is that m(x) = x² - 17·x

The above equation can be written in the form;

y = x² - 17·x

Therefore;

0 = x² - 17·x - y

From the general solution of a quadratic equation, 0 = a·x² + b·x + c we have;

x = \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c}}{2\cdot a}

By comparison to the equation,0 = x² - 17·x - y, we have;

a = 1, b = -17, and c = -y

Substituting the values of a, b and c into the formula for the general solution of a quadratic equation, we have;

x = \dfrac{-(-17)\pm \sqrt{(-17)^{2}-4\times (1) \times (-y)}}{2\times (1)} = \dfrac{17\pm \sqrt{289+4\cdot y}}{2}

Which can be simplified as follows;

x =  \dfrac{17\pm \sqrt{289+4\cdot y}}{2}= \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \dfrac{1}{2}  \times \sqrt{289+4\cdot y}} = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{289}{4} +\dfrac{4\cdot y}{4} }}

And further simplified as follows;

x = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{289}{4} +y }} = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{y + \dfrac{289}{4} }}

Interchanging x and y in the function of the inverse, m⁻¹(x), we have;

m^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{x + \dfrac{289}{4} }}

We note that the maximum or minimum point of the function, m(x) = x² - 17·x found by differentiating the function and equating the result to zero, gives;

m'(x) = 2·x - 17 = 0

x = 17/2

Similarly, the second derivative is taken to determine if the given point is a maximum or minimum point as follows;

m''(x) = 2 > 0, therefore, the point is a minimum point on the graph

Therefore, as x increases past the minimum point of 17/2, m⁻¹(x) increases to give;

The \ domain \ restriction \ x \geq \dfrac{17}{2} \ results \ in \ m^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{x + \dfrac{289}{4} }} to increase m⁻¹(x) above the minimum.

The number of motor vehicles registered in millions in the US has grown as follows:
zysi [14]

Answer:

a) Figure attached

b) r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

For our case we have this:

n=10 \sum x = 75.819, \sum y = 43.5231, \sum xy = 330.0321, \sum x^2 =574.8598, \sum y^2 =192.8274  

r=\frac{10(330.0321)-(75.81948)(43.5231)}{\sqrt{[10(574.8598) -(75.819)^2][10(192.8274) -(43.5231)^2]}}=0.989  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.989

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

Solution to the problem

Part a

Year (x): 1940, 1945 1950, 1955, 1960, 1965, 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985

Vehicles (Y): 32.4, 31.0, 49.2, 62.7, 73.9, 90.4, 108.4, 132.9, 155.8, 171.7

After apply natural log for the two variables and create the scatterplot in excel we got the following result on the figure attached.

Part b

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:  

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

For our case we have this:

n=10 \sum x = 75.819, \sum y = 43.5231, \sum xy = 330.0321, \sum x^2 =574.8598, \sum y^2 =192.8274  

r=\frac{10(330.0321)-(75.81948)(43.5231)}{\sqrt{[10(574.8598) -(75.81948)^2][10(192.8274) -(43.5231)^2]}}=0.989  

So then the correlation coefficient would be r =0.989

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?
telo118 [61]

Answer:

f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of the parabola with a focus of (3,1) and directrix y=5.

Considering the directrix, the quadratic graph must open downwards.


The equation of this parabola is given by the formula,

(x-h)^2=4p(y-k), where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola.


The axis of this parabola meets the directrix at (3,5).

Since the vertex is the midpoint of the focus and the point of intersection of the axis of the parabola and the directrix,


h=\frac{3+3}{2}=3 and k=\frac{5+1}{2}=3.


The equation of the parabola now becomes,


(x-3)^2=4p(y-3).


Also |p| is the distance between the vertex and the directrix.


|p|=2


This implies that p=-2\:or\:2.


Since the parabola turns downwards,


p=-2.



Our equation now becomes,


(x-3)^2=4(-2)(y-3).


(x-3)^2=-8(y-3).


We make y the subject to get,

y=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3).


This is the same as

f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3).
