Answer:
x = ± 4
Step-by-step explanation:
given 3x² = 48 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ±
= ± 4
x ∈ {- 4, 4 }
General equation of parabola: y-k = a(x-h)^2
Here the vertex is at (0,0), so we have y-0 = a(x-0)^2, or y = ax^2
All we have to do now is to find the value of the coefficient a.
(1,2) is on the curve. Therefore, 2 = a(1)^2, or 2 = a(1), or a = 2.
The equation of this parabola is y = 2x^2.
I use an app called Socratic also it works very well!!
There are 6 numbers on each die.
The total number of out comes is 6 x 6 = 36.
To get a sum of 4, the combinations are: 1 & 3, 2 & 2 or 3 & 1.
To get a sum of 8, the combinations are: 1 & 7, 2 & 6, 3 & 5, 4 & 4, 7 & 1, 6 & 2, 5 & 3
The total of those combinations are: 3 + 7 = 10 total combinations of a sum of either 4 or 8.
The probability of either is 10/36, which can be reduced to 5/18.
