Answer:
h(x) = 3(x - 5)^2 + 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = 3x^2 + 8
Shifting 5 units to the right gives:
3(x - 5)^2 + 8
Now 2 units down :
3(x - 5)^2 + 8 - 2
= 3(x - 5)^2 + 6.
If X is a random variable representing the number of children that end up having light-colored eyes, then X follows a binomial distribution with success probability p = 0.25 and number of trials n = 5.
The variance of a binomial distribution with these parameters is n p (1 - p), so the variance in this case would be
5 • 0.25 • (1 - 0.25) = 0.9375 ≈ 0.9
10 I think..I might be wrong
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = sum of ages of all children.
mean age of all children = c/15 = 7
c = 15 * 7 = 105
The sum of the ages of all children is 105.
Let b = sum of ages of the 9 boys.
mean age of boys = b/9 = 5
b = 9 * 5 = 45
The sum of the ages of the boys is 45.
The sum of the ages of the girls is c - b.
c - b = 105 - 45 = 60
The number of girls is 15 - 9 = 6
mean age of girls = (sum of ages of the girls)/(number of girls) =
= 60/6 = 10

This is an area problem. The key words are 120 square feet and 12 feet longer.
And of course width is a key word when you are reading this.
Formula
Area = L * W
Givens
W = W
L = W + 12
Substitute and Solve
Area = L* W
120 = W*(W + 12)
W^2 + 12W = 120 square feet
w^2 + 12w - 120 = 0
This does not factor easily. I would have thought that a graph might help but not if the dimension has to be to the nearest 1/100 of a foot. The only thing we can do is use the quadratic formula.
a = 1
b = 12
c = - 120
w = [ -b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) ]/(2a)
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(12^2 - 4*(1)(-120)] / 2*1
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(144 - (-480)]/2
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(624)] / 2
w = [- 12 +/- 24.979992] / 2 The minus root has no meaning whatever.
w = (12.979992) / 2
w = 6.489995 I'll round all this when I get done
L = w + 12
L = 6.489995 + 12
L = 18.489995
check
Area = L * W
Area = 6.489995*18.489995
Area = 119.999935 The difference is a rounding error
Answer
L = 18.489995 = 18.49 feet
W = 6.489995 = 6.49 feet
Note: in the check if you round first to the answer, LW = 120.0001 when you find the area for the check. Kind of strange how that nearest 1/100th makes a difference.
