if x=-3 is the only x-incercept of the graph of a quadratic equation which statement best describes the discrinant of the equation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The discriminant must be zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Equation

The standard representation of a quadratic function is:

[tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

where a,b, and c are constants.

The zeros, roots, or x-intercepts can be found by solving the equation:

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

We can use the quadratic formula to find the roots:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Note this formula gives us two different roots if the square root is non-zero.

The only way there can be only one x-intercept is because the square root is zero.

If the square root is zero, then

[tex]b^2-4ac =0[/tex]

The expression is called the discriminant.

Thus, if x=-3 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic function, then the discriminant must be zero.

a.45
b.33
c.27
d.60
(apex)

Answers

Answer:

The interquartile range is 60 ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The interquartile range is the difference between the upper quartile and the lower quartile

Let us explain how to find the interquartile range

Arrange the number from smallest to greatestFind its median Q1 (the middle number in the set of numbers)Find the lower quartile Q1 which is the median of the set of the numbers before the median Find the upper quartile Q3  which is the median of the set of the numbers after the median Subtract Q1 from Q3 the answer is the interquartile range

Let us do these steps to find it

∵ The data set is {45, 12, 48, 96, 61, 84, 29, 1, 72, 5, 14}

→ Arrange them

∴ The data set is {1, 5, 12, 14, 29, 45, 48, 61, 72, 84, 96}

∵ They are 11 numbers

∴ The middle number is the 6th number (5 before it and 5 after it)

∵ The 6th number is 45

The median is 45

→ Find the lower set (before the median)

∴ The lower set is {1, 5, 12, 14, 29}

→ Find the lower quartile Q1

∵ The lower quartile is the middle number in this set

∵ There are 5 numbers

∴ The middle one is the 3rd

∵ The 3rd is 12

Q1 = 12

→ Find the upper set (after the median)

∴ The upper set is {48, 61, 72, 84, 96}

→ Find the upper quartile Q3

∵ The upper quartile is the middle number in this set

∵ There are 5 numbers

∴ The middle one is the 3rd

∵ The 3rd is 72

Q3 = 72

→ Subtract them to find the interquartile range

∵ The interquartile range = Q3 - Q1

∴ The interquartile range = 72 - 12

The interquartile range = 60

For a continuous random variable X, P(23 ≤ X ≤ 66) = 0.25 and P(X > 66) = 0.14. Calculate the following probabilities. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Complete question :

For a continuous random variable X, P(23 ≤ X ≤ 66) = 0.25 and P(X > 66) = 0.14. Calculate the following probabilities. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

a. P(X < 66)

b. P(X < 23)

c. P(X = 66)

Answer:

P(X < 66) = 0.86

P(X < 23) = 0.61

P(X = 66) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

X, P(23 ≤ X ≤ 66) = 0.25 and

P(X > 66) = 0.14 ;

Recall:

P(x ≤ a) + p(x ≥ a) = 1

Then ; P(X < 0.66) = 1 - 0.14 = 0.86

Hence,

P(X < 0.66) = 0.86

P(23 ≤ X ≤ 66) = 0.25

P(X < 66) = 0.86

Hence,

P(X < 23) = 0.86 - 0.25 = 0.61

Probability that a continuous random variable is exactly equal to a particular number equals 0

Hence,

P(X = 66) = 0

Answer: x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

They are equal so set them equal and solve for x.

(4x+1) = 53

4x = 52

x = 13

Answer:

Since the lines l and m are parallel,

angle (4x + 1) and angle 53 are both corresponding angles

We know that corresponding angles are equal, so:

4x + 1 = 53

4x = 52

x = 13

you roll three six sided dice. what is the probability that exactly two of the dice are odd?

Answers

Answer:

3C2 * (.5)^2 * (.5)^1

.375

Step-by-step explanation:

...

The probability that exactly two of the dice are odd is 3/8

What is probability?

"It is finding out the possibilities of the occurrence of an event."

Formula to find the probability of an event:

"P(A) = n(A) / n(S)

where, n(A) is the number of favorable outcomes of an event A

n(S) is the total number of outcomes for an experiment"

What is Binomial theorem of probability?

[tex]P=~ ^nC_r\times p^r \times q^{n-r}[/tex]

where, p is the probability of success and q is the probability of failure

For given example,

We roll three six sided dice.

We need to find the probability that exactly two of the dice are odd

the probability of success i. e. dice is odd would be,

⇒ p = 3/6

⇒ p = 1/2

So, the probability of failure would be,

⇒ q = 1 - p

⇒ q = 1 - 1/2

⇒ q = 1/2

Also, n = 3 and r = 2

Using Binomial distribution the required probability would be,

[tex]\Rightarrow P=~ ^nC_r\times p^r \times q^{n-r}\\\\\Rightarrow P=~ ^3C_2\times (\frac{1}{2} )^2 \times (\frac{1}{2} )^{3-2}\\\\\Rightarrow P =\frac{3!}{3!(3-2)!}\times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{2}\\\\ \Rightarrow \bold{P=\frac{3}{8}}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that exactly two of the dice are odd is 3/8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to get x by itself on one side, so in order to do that, you need to subtract the 24, and if you do it one side, you need to do it to the other side.

That would give you:
