Remember that the vertex form of a parabola or quadratic equation is:
y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the "vertex" which is the maximum or minimum point of the parabola (and a is half the acceleration of the of the function, but that is maybe too much :P)
In this case we are given that the vertex is (1,1) so we have:
y=a(x-1)^2+1, and then we are told that there is a point (0,-3) so we can say:
-3=a(0-1)^2+1
-3=a+1
-4=a so our complete equation in vertex form is:
y=-4(x-1)^2+1
Now you wish to know where the x-intercepts are. x-intercepts are when the graph touches the x-axis, ie, when y=0 so
0=-4(x-1)^2+1 add 4(x-1)^2 to both sides
4(x-1)^2=1 divide both sides by 4
(x-1)^2=1/4 take the square root of both sides
x-1=±√(1/4) which is equal to
x-1=±1/2 add 1 to both sides
x=1±1/2
So x=0.5 and 1.5, thus the x-intercept points are:
(0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0) or if you like fractions:
(1/2, 0) and (3/2, 0) :P
You combined the x’s together then u wanna move all the x’s to one side then after that you would want to do the opposite of -7, so then you add 7 to 10 and then you would divide everything by 2 and get x=8.5
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
sides of triangle measure: 'x', '4x-2' and '4x-2' since isosceles means both legs are equal
perimeter is the sum of all sides, so set up equation:
95 = 4x - 2 + 4x - 2 + x
95 = 8x - 4 + x
95 = 9x - 4
99 = 9x
x = 11
Answer:
a) 3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.
b) 58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
is the mean in the given time interval.
If the mean number of arrivals is 10
This means that 
(a) that there will be exactly 15 arrivals?
This is P(X = 15). So
3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.
(b) no more than 10 arrivals?
This is 
58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.
question 3: -2
question 4: 0
Ordered pairs in a graph go in the sequence of (x, y)
