Answer:

Solution; ( 1, 0 ), and ( - 3, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

See procedure below;

First let us make these two functions ( y = -x + 1 , y = x^2 + x - 2 ) equivalent;

- x + 1 = x^2 + x - 2,

-x - x + 1 + 2 - x^2 = 0,

- 2x + 3 - x^2 = 0,

x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0,

Now factor the simplified equation;

x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0,

( x^2 - x ) + ( 3x - 3 ) = 0,

x ( x - 1 ) + 3 ( x - 1 ) = 0,

( x - 1 )( x + 3 ) = 0,

And solve for x;

x - 1 = 0, and x + 3 = 0,

x = 1, and x = - 3

Now substitute this value of x into the two functions as to receive the y values for each x - value;

y = - ( 1 ) + 1, y = 0 for x = 1,

y = ( - 3 )^2 - 3 - 2, y = 9 - 3 - 2, y = 4 for x = - 3,

Solution; ( 1, 0 ), and ( - 3, 4 )

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

(A)6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic expression: $a^2+8a+12$

We factorize:

$a^2+8a+12=a^2+6a+2a+12\\=a(a+6)+2(a+6)\\=(a+2)(a+6)$

Therefore, the missing number that will complete the factorization is 6.

preliminary sample of 100 labourers was selected from a population of 5000 labourers by simple random sampling. It was found tha

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=368.79$

n=369

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

$X=40$ number of the selected labourers opt for a new incentive scheme.

$n=100$ random sample taken

$\hat p=\frac{40}{100}=0.4$ estimated proportion of the selected labourers opt for a new incentive scheme.

$p$ true population proportion of the selected labourers opt for a new incentive scheme.

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

2) Solution tot he problem

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.05$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=368.79$

And rounded up we have that n=369

A caterer provides a conference banquet for a price of $40 per person for 20 or fewer people but will decrease the price by $1 p

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The maximum revenue is $900, obtained with 30 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Naturally, the answer should be a number equal or higher than 20, because up to 20 persons, each one pays the same. Lets define a revenue function for x greater than or equal to 20.

f(x) = x*(40-(x-20)) = -x²+60x

Note that f multiplies the number of persons by how much would they pay (here, assuming that there are more than 20).

f is quadratic with negative main coefficient and its maximum value will be reached at the vertex.

The value of the x coordinate of the vertex is -b/2a = -60/-2 = 30

for x = 30, f(x) = 30*(40-(30-20))=30*30=900

So the maximum revenue is $900.

Uma pessoa realizou uma compra que foi financiada em três parcelas mensais e iguais a R$ 350,00, o financiamento foi realizado s

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: Amount of purchase would be $393.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

One person made a purchase that was financed in three monthly installments and equal to $ 350.00, the financing was made at the compound interest rate of 48% a.a. Determine the amount of the purchase.

Since we have given that

Principal = $350.00

Rate of compounded monthly = 48%

Number of months = 3

So, the amount of purchase would be

$Amount=350(1+\dfrac{0.48}{12})^3\\\\Amount=350(1+0.04)^3\\\\Amount=350(1.04)^3\\\\Amount=\$393.70$

Hence, Amount of purchase would be $393.70.

The table shows some values of a function of the form y = ax2 + bx + c.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Value of constant term c is (-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table represents a function which is in the form of a quadratic equation,

y = ax² + bx + c

We choose three points (3, -10), (4, -16) and (5, -24) from the table and satisfy the equation to get the values of a, b, and c.

For point (3, -10)

-10 = a(3)² + 3b + c

9a + 3b + c = -10 -------(1)

For point (4, -16)

-16 = a(4)² + 4b + c

16a + 4b + c = -16 ------(2)

For point (5, -24)

-24 = a(5)² + 5b + c

25a + 5b + c = -24 -----(3)

Equation (1) - equation (2)

(9a + 3b + c) - (16a + 4b + c) = -10 + 16

-7a - b = 6

7a + b = -6 ------(4)

Equation (2) - equation (3)

(16a + 4b + c) - (25a + 5b + c) = -16 + 24

-9a - b = 8

9a + b = -8 -------(5)

Equation (4) - Equation (5)

(7a + b) - (9a + b) = -6 + 8

-2a = 2

a = -1

From equation (4),

-7(1) + b = -6

b = -6 + 7

b = 1

From equation (1)

9(-1) + 3(1) + c = -10

-9 + 3 + c = -10

c = -10 + 6

c = -4

Therefore, the value of constant term c is (-4).
