Two distinct roots means two real solutions for x (the parabola needs to cross the x-axis twice)

Vertex form of a quadratic equation: (h,k) is vertex

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

The x of the vertex needs to equal 3

y = a(x-3)^2 + k

In order to have two distinct roots the parabola must be (+a) upward facing with vertex below the x-axis or (-a) downward facing with vertex above the x-axis. Parabolas are symmetrical so for an easy factorable equation make "a" 1 or -1 depending on if you want the upward/downward facing one.

y = (x-3)^2 - 1

Vertex (3,-1) upwards facing with two distinct roots 4 and 2

y = x^2 -6x + 9 - 1

y = x^2 -6x + 8

y = (x - 4)(x - 2)

<span>The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry, so the axis of symmetry is x = 3. Find any two x-intercepts that are equal distance from the axis of symmetry. Use those x-intercepts to write factors of the function by subtracting their values from x. For example, 2 and 4 are each 1 unit from x = 3, so f(x) = (x – 2)(x – 4) is a possible function.</span>

Answer:

a) This is an Observational Study because in this kind of study investigators observe subjects and measure variables of interest without assigning treatments to the subjects. Here, the Gilham et al. (2005) studied two different groups where no treatment or intervention was done. These groups were independent of each other.

b) proportions of children with significant social activity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia = 1020/1272 = 0.80

proportions of children with significant social activity in children without acute lymphoblastic leukemia = 5343/6238 = 0.86

c) Odds ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

OR= \frac{a/b}{c/d}

where: a - Number in exposed group with positive outcome(here this means number of children with significant social activity associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia)

b- Number of children without social activity having with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

c- Number of children with social activity having without acute lymphoblastic leukemia

d- Number of children without social activity having without acute lymphoblastic leukemia

OR= \frac{1020/252}{5343/895}

OR= 0.6780

d) The 95% confidence interval of this Odds Ratio is 0.5807 to 0.7917.

e) Since the odds ratio lies in this confidence interval indicate that the amount of social activity is associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The children with more social activity have a higher occurrence of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

$12159 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

If I invest $x each year at the simple interest of 7.5%, then the first $x will grow for 35 years, the second $x will grow for 34 years and so on.

So, the total amount that will grow after 35 years by investing $x at the start of each year at the rate of 7.5% simple interest will be given by

x( 1 + \frac{35 \times 7.5}{100}) + x( 1 + \frac{34 \times 7.5}{100}) + x( 1 + \frac{33 \times 7.5}{100}) + ......... + x( 1 + \frac{1 \times 7.5}{100})

= 35x + \frac{x \times 7.5}{100} [35 + 34 + 33 + ......... + 1]

= 35x + \frac{x \times 7.5}{100} [\frac{1}{2} (35) (35 + 1)]

{Since sum of n natural numbers is given by \frac{1}{2} (n)(n + 1)}

= 35x + 47.25x

= 82.25x

Now, given that the final amount will be i million dollars = $1000000

So, 82.25x = 1000000

⇒ x = $12,158. 05 ≈ $12159

Therefore. I have to invest $12159 per year. (Answer)

Given ​ f(x)=x^2+12x+26 ​.
lapo4ka [179]

f(x)=x^2+12x+26

Vertex form of f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k

We change f(x) into vertex form using completing the square method

f(x)=x^2+12x+26

We take half of square of middle term

middle term is 12

Half of square of 12 is \frac{12}{2}=6 then 6^2 = 36

Add and subtract 36 to complete the square

f(x)=(x^2+12x+36)+26-36

f(x)= (x+6)^2 +26 - 36 f(x)= (x+6)^2 -10

The vertex form f(x)= (x+6)^2 -10
