Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the vertex of the quadratic equation:

\displaystyle y = -x^2 + 2x + 1

Recall that the vertex is given by the formulas:

\displaystyle \text{Vertex} = \left(-\frac{b}{2a}, f\left(-\frac{b}{2a}\right)\right)

In this case, <em>a</em> = -1, <em>b</em> = 2, and <em>c</em> = 1.

Determine the <em>x-</em>coordinate of the vertex:

\displaystyle x = -\frac{(2)}{2(-1)} = 1

To determine the <em>y-</em>coordinate, evaluate the function at <em>x</em> = 1:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} y(1)&= -(1)^2 + 2(1) + 1 \\ &= 2\end{aligned}

In conclusion, the vertex of the quadratic equation is (1, 2).

Hence, our answer is C.

The container is aproximatly 1064.16 cm^2

Volume of a cylinder (area of the base* height) + area of the sphere (4 *pi * r^2)
(25*30) + (4* pi * 25) = 750 + 314.15926535898 = 1064.15926535898

A company determined that the marginal​ cost, C' (x )of producing the xth unit of a product is given by C' (x )= x^3- 6x. Find t
Rashid [163]

Answer:

C(x) = \frac{x^4}{4}-3x^2+3,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The marginal cost function, C'(x), is the derivate of the cost function, C(x).

Therefore, we can obtain the cost function by finding the integral of the marginal cost function:

C(x) = \int\ {C'(x)} \, dx \\C(x) = \int\ {(x^3-6x)} \, dx \\C(x) = \frac{1}{4} x^4-3x^2+a

Where 'a' is a constant and represents fixed costs. If fixed costs are $3,000, the cost function is:

C(x) = \frac{x^4}{4}-3x^2+3,000

Ari said there are three possible outcomes when you spin this spinner twice: two reds, a yellow and a red, or two yellows.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

From inspection of the diagram, we can see that the spinner is divided into <u>4 equal parts</u>, where 3 parts are red and 1 part is yellow.

\sf Probability\:of\:an\:event\:occurring = \dfrac{Number\:of\:ways\:it\:can\:occur}{Total\:number\:of\:possible\:outcomes}

Therefore,

\implies \textsf{Probability of getting a red} = \sf \dfrac{3}{4}

\implies \textsf{Probability of getting a yellow} = \sf \dfrac{1}{4}

<u>Multiplication Rule for Independent Events</u>

For independent events A and B:

  • \sf P(A\:and\:B)=P(A) \times P(B)

Therefore,

\begin{aligned}\implies \sf P(yellow\:and\:yellow) & = \sf P(yellow) \times P(yellow)\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\ & = \sf \dfrac{1}{16}\end{aligned}

<h3><u>Conclusion</u></h3>

Ari is incorrect.  The spinner is divided into 4 parts, where only one part is yellow.  Therefore, the probability of spinning a yellow is 1/4.  As the events are independent, the Multiplication Rule should be used to calculate the probability of spinning 2 yellows.  So the probability of spinning 2 yellows is 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16.
