How to determine the value of missing coefficient in second order polynomials

Second order polynomials are algebraic expressions that observe the following form:

[tex]p(x) = a\cdot x^2 + b\cdot x + c[/tex]   (1)

Where:

a, b, c - Coefficientsx - Independent variable

For polynomials of the form p(x) = 0, we can infer the nature of their roots by applying the following discriminant:

d = b² - 4 · a · c   (2)

According to (2), there are three cases:

If d < 0, then there are two conjugated complex roots.If d = 0, then the two roots are the same real number.If d > 0, then the two roots are two distinct real numbers.

Now we have the following discriminant case:

-(3 + 2 · k)² - 4 · (1) · (4) ≠ 0

-(9 + 6 · k + 4 · k²) - 16 ≠ 0

-9 - 6 · k - 4 · k² - 16 ≠ 0

4 · k²+ 6 · k +25 ≠ 0

This characteristic polynomial has two conjugated complex roots, then we conclude that all values of k must positive or negative, but never zero. By graphng tools we find that k must be greater than or equal to 22.75 to have two different zeros.

Which function has a maximum with the same maximum value as
f(x) = – |x + 3| – 2? f(x) = (x + 3)2 – 2 f(x) = –(x – 6)2 – 3

Answers

Answer:

The answer is c on edge or f(x) = 1 sqt x + 6 -2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given two options, none of them has a function that has the same maximum value as f(x) = -|x+3|-2.

What is a function?

A function is a correspondence between input numbers (x-values) and output numbers (y-values). It is used to describe an equation.

Given that:

f(x) = -|x + 3| - 2

Suppose that x = c is a critical point of (x) then,

If f'(x) > 0 to the left of x = c and f'(x) < 0 to the right of x = c;

then x = c is a local maximum.

If f'(x) < 0 to the left of x = c and f'(x) > 0 to the right of x = c;

then x = c is a local minimum.

If f'(x) is the same sign on both sides of x = c;

then x = c and is neither a local maximum nor a local minimum.

From the given equation, the critical points: x = -3

The intervals is: Increasing at -∞ < x < -3 and decreasing at -3<x<∞

If we put the point x = -3 into - |x+3|-2

Then, y = -2 and it is Maximum at (-3, -2)

Only f(x) = (x+3)^2 - 2 has a  minimum at (-3,-2)

We can therefore conclude that none of them has a function that has the same maximum value as f(x) = -|x+3|-2.

With the frequecy distribution shown in the 50 cities of pakistan,

range = 18mean = 18.1median = 19.8333mode = 19.125kurtosis = 2.7508Standard deviation = 3.75

How to find the Range

= highest value - lowest value

= 26.5 - 8.5

= 18

How to find the mean

= ∑ f x / ∑ f

= ∑ f x / N

= 905 / 50

= 18.1

median

= lower limit + ( N/2 - C ) * h / ( frequency of the class interval )

C = cumulative frequency preceeding to the median class frequency

h = class interval

= 18.5 + ( 50 / 2 - ( 5 + 12 ) ) * 3 / 18

= 18.5 + 1.3333

= 19.8333

How to find the mode

The mode is the value with the highest frequency occurence. This is under class 18 - 20

mode = lower limit + ( ( f1 - f0 ) / (2*f1 - f0 - f2 ) ) * h

f1 = fequency of the modal class

f0 = freqency of the preceeding modal class

f2 = frequency of the next modal class

h = class interval

= 18.5 + ( ( 18 - 12 ) / (2 * 18 - 12 - 8 )  ) * 3

= 18 + ( 0.375 ) * 3

= 19.125

How to find the standard deviation

= sqrt ( 1 / N ∑ f ( x - x' )^2 )

= sqrt (1  / 50 * 706.5

= 3.7589

How to solve for relative dispersion

=  standard deviation / mean

= 3.7589 / 3

= 1.2530

What is the variance?

= ( standard deviation )^2

= ( 3.7589 )^2

= 14.1293

How to solve for kurtosis

=  ∑ f ( x - x' )^4 / ( N * ( standard deviation )^4 )

You randomly draw twice from this deck of cards
0 с G|F. D C G
What is the probability of not drawing a C, then not drawing a C,
without replacing the first card? Write your answer as a decimal
rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

The probability of not drawing C in neither draw is P = 0.5

How to get the probability?

All the cards have the same probability of being drawn, in this case, our set of cards is {F, D, C, G}

The probability of not drawing C is equal to the probability of drawing F, D or G. So we have 3 options out of 4, then the probability is:

p = 3/4.

Now we draw another, this time there are 3 cards, one of these is C, and the other two cards are not C. Then the probability of not drawing C again is equal to 2 over 3.

q = 2/3.

The joint probability (for both of these events to happen) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities:

P = p*q = (3/4)*(2/3) = 0.5

The function L= 10 log(I/10^-16) is a logarithmic equation

The loudness of the whisper is 40 decibels

How to determine the loudness?

The function of the loudness is given as:

L= 10 log(I/10^-16)

When the intensity is 10^-12, the equation becomes

L= 10 log(10^-12/10^-16)

Evaluate the quotient

L= 10 log(10^4)

Divya spends all of her free time playing with her building blocks. She owns building block sets with 333 pieces, 555 pieces, and 101010 pieces. Divya knows she owns 555 sets with 555 pieces and 222 sets with 101010 pieces. She also knows that she averages 555 pieces per set. This information is summarized in the table below

Answers

Answer:

  5 sets

Step-by-step explanation:

The average number of pieces per set is the ratio of the total number of pieces to the total number of sets.

Let x represent the number of 3-piece sets. Then the total number of pieces is ...

  3x +5(5) +10(2) = 3x +45

The total number of sets is ...

  x +5 +2 = x +7

We want the ratio of these numbers to be 5 pieces per set:

  (3x +45)/(x +7) = 5

  3x +45 = 5x +35 . . . . . multiply by (x+7)

  10 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . subtract (3x+35)

  5 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Divya owns 5 sets with 3 pieces.

_____

Alternate solution

Each 10-piece set has 5 more pieces than average, so the two of them total 10 more pieces than average.

Each 3-piece set has 2 fewer pieces than average. The total number of 3-piece sets must have a total of 10 fewer pieces than average in order to balance the excess of the 10-piece sets. That is, there must be 10/2 = 5 of the 3-piece sets to have a total lof 10 fewer pieces than average.

Altogether, the differences from average must total zero.
