What is the vertex of g(x) = 3x2 − 12x + 7? (−6, −5) (−2, −5) (2, −5) (6, −5)

Mathematics

Answer:

(2, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to vertex form:

3x^2 - 12x + 7

= 3(x^2 - 4x) + 7

Completing the square:

= 3[ (x - 2)^2 - 4)] + 7

= 3(x - 2)^2 - 12 + 7

= 3(x - 2)^2 - 5.

Comparing with the general form

a(x - b)^2 + c  we see that the vertex is (b, c)  =   (2, -5).

Daily high temperatures in the city of Houston for the last week have been: 90, 93, 90 92, 90, 88, 98 (yesterday).

Answer:

  1. The answer or forecast for temperature using a three-day moving average =
  2. The answer or forecast for temperature using a three-day moving average =
  3. The mean absolute deviation based on a two-day moving average, covering all days =  

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Three-point averages are calculated by taking a number in the series with the previous and next numbers and averaging the three of them.

Step I - Calculate the three series of succession of numbers form the data and find the average of each of them:

A) (90 + 93 +90)/3 = 91.00

B) (93 + 92 + 90)/3 = 91.67

C) (90 + 92 +90)/3 = 90.67

D) (92 + 90 + 88)/3 = 90.00

E) (90 + 88 + 98)/3 = 92.00

So our series approximated to the nearest whole number is:

91, 92, 91, 90, 92

STEP II

 

From the series above the highest temperature today is unpredictable because the series is irregular. It went from 91 to 92, then it dropped to 90 and came back to 92.

             

2. Using a two day moving average we have

STEP I .  

Calculate the moving averages

           

A) (90+93)/2 = 91.50

B) (93 + 90)/2 = 91.50

C) (90 + 92)/2 = 91.00

D) (92 +90)/2 = 91.00

E) (90 + 88)/2 = 89.00

F) (88 + 98)/2 = 93.00

STEP II

The temperature also cannot be predicted because of the irregular series.

3. Calculating the Mean Absolute Deviation based on a two-day moving average

The formula for MAD = (∑|x_{i} - \frac{}{x}|)/n

STEP I

To find the mean absolute deviation of the data, start by finding the mean of the data set.

Mean of the data set =

(91.50 + 91.50 + 91.00 +  91.00 + 89.00 +93.00)/6

Mean = 91.17

STEP II

Get the distance between the data point and the mean:

  1. 91.50-91.17=0.33
  2. 91.50-91.17= 0.33
  3. 91.00-91.17= -0.17
  4. 91.00-91.17= -0.17
  5. 89.00-91.17= -2.17
  6. 90.00-91.17= -1.17

STEP II

Add all the distances together

0.33 + 0.33 - 0.17 - 0.17 - 2.17 - 1.17 = -3.02

STEP III

Divide the the sum by data points

-3.02/6

= -0.50

So on average the temperatures were <em>-0.50</em> from the mean.

Cheers!

Give a decimal number that is less than 23.7 and greater than 23.7
Makovka662 [10]
I think you are asking for two numbers, so you just have to look at the decimals.

23.7

We can use an infinite amount of numbers here, but to make it simple you can just take away 0.01 or add 0.01.

23.69
23.71

These are funny answers as well because they both round to 23.7 and meet the requirements.

The box plots represent the ages of pennies in two 50-cent rolls. By looking at the plots, Beth says that the two means are abou
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

D)She may not be correct because means cannot be determined from Box plots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Box plot -Boxplot is a way to show the spread and centers of a data setboxplot and also called a box and whisker plot,

Box plot tells us about :

1) Mininmum value

2) 25th Percentile value

3)Median

4) 75th Percentile value

5)Maximum value

6) Interquartile Range

Now we are given that By looking at the plots, Beth says that the two means are about 5 years apart.

So,Option D is true

She may not be correct because means cannot be determined from Box plots.

If you vertically compress the square root parent function f(x) = ^x, by 1/2 of a unit what is the equation of the new function
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The equation of the new function is g(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have a function f(x).

a*f(x), a > 1, is vertically stretching f(x) a units. Otherwise, if a < 1, we are vertically compressing f(x) by a units.

f(x - a) is shifting f(x) a units to the right.

f(x + a) is shifting f(x) a units to the left

In this question:

f(x) = \sqrt{x}

Vertically compressing by 1/2:

This is the same as multiplying the function by 1/2. So

\frac{1}{2} \times \sqrt{x} = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{2}

The equation of the new function is g(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{2}
