Answer: ~73.89% of students at school are not freshmen

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a percentage, you need to divide the partial group by the large group. For example, if I have 2 bananas, and 10 fruits, what percentage of bananas do I have? The correct answer would be (2 bananas ÷ 10 fruits), which equals 20% (the equation equals 1/5, or 0.2, but when finding percentages, you multiply the final answer by 100 and add the % sign.).

Now, you have 223 freshmen and 854 students. To calculate the percentage of students at the school other than freshman, you need to find out how many students aren't freshman. Do this by finding the difference of the amount of students in the school and the amount of freshmen.

> 854 - 223 = 631 students that are not freshmen

Use this number to find out the percentage of students that are not freshmen.

> 631 non-freshmen ÷ 854 total students ≈ 73.89%

Choose the correct x-intercepts for the following quadratic function.

Brainly doesn't automatically "know" every part of the problems you post here; you have to ensure that your post includes everything in the original problem.

We can still have some fun with answer choice <span>x = 1, x = 3:

An associated quadratic function would have the form y = a(x-1)(x-3). Just supposing that the point (2, 5) were on the graph, then this </span>y = a(x-1)(x-3) would become 5 = a(2-1)(2-3), or 5 = a(1)(-1), or 5 = -a, or a = -5.

Thus, the equation of the parabola would be y = -5(x-1)(x-3), or, in the more usual form, y = -5(x^2 - 4x + 3).

Complete the square to find the vertex:

Steal y = x^2 - 4x + 3 for a moment and complete the square:

x^2 - 4x + 3 = x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 + 3, or (x-2)^2 - 1

Subbing this back into y = -5(x^2 - 4x + 3), we get

y = -5 [ (x-2)^2 -1 ], or y = -5(x-2)^2 + 5. This shows that the vertex is at (2, 5), that the graph opens downward, and the graph is symm. about the line x = 2.

The endpoints of AB are A(2, 3) and B(8, 1). The perpendicular bisector of AB is CD, and point C lies on AB. The length of CD is

marysya [2.9K]

Comment
If C lies on AB Then it must be the midpoint of AB because CD is the Perpendicular Bisector of AB

Midpoint
A(2,3) B(8,1)
Midpoint formula = (x1 + x2)/2 + (y1 + y2)/2
Midpoint = (2 + 8)/2 + (3 + 1) / 2
Midpoint = 10/2 + 4/2
Midpoint = (5,2) <<<<< answer

Slope AB
slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
slope = (3 - 1) / (2 - 8)
slope = 2/-6 = -1/3

Slope CD
CD_slope * AB_slope = - 1
CD_slope * -1/3 = -1 multiply both sides by - 3
CD_slope * 1 = - 1 * -3
CD_slope = 3 <<<<< Slope CD Answer

Equation CD
Given the midpoint of AB which is C( and the slope of CD
y = 3x + b
2 = 3*5 + b
b = - 13
Equation y = 3x - 13

Using Distance to get D
d^2 = (x1 - x2)^2 + (y2 - y1)'^2
d^2 = (x2 - 5)^2 + (y2 - 2)^2
y2 = 3*x2 - 13
10 = x2^2 - 10x2 + 25 + (3x2 - 13 - 2)^2
10 = x2^2 - 10x2 + 25 + (3x2 - 15)^2
10 = x1^2 - 10x2 + 25 + 9x^2 - 90x2 + 225
10 = 10x2^2 - 100x2 +250
0 = 10x2^2 - 100x2 + 240 Divide through by 10
0 = x2^2 - 10x^2 + 24
0 = (x2 - 6)(x2 - 4)

x2 = 6 or
x2 = 4

Using y2 = 3x - 13
for x2 = 4
then y2 = 3(4) - 13
y2 = - 1

for x2 = 6
y2 = 3*6 - 13
y2 = 5
