The archway of the main entrance of a university is modeled by the quadratic equation y = -x^2 + 6x. The university is hanging a

banner at the main entrance at an angle defined by the equation 4y = 21 − x. At what points should the banner be attached to the archway?
a. (1, 5.5) and (5.25, 6.56)
b. (1, 5) and (5.25, 3.94)
c. (1.5, 4.87) and (3.5, 4.37)

Find the intersection points of the two equationsÑ

1) y = - x^2 + 6x

2) 4y = 21- x => y = 21/4 - x/4

Intersection => y = y => - x^2 + 6x = 21/4 - x/4

=> x^2 - 6x - x/4 + 21/4 = 0

=> x^2 - 25x/4 + 21/4 = 0

x^2 - 6.25x + 5.25 = 0

Use the quadratic equation and you find x = 1 and x ≈ 5.25

The respective y values are: y = 5 and y ≈ 3.94

=> points (1,5) and (5.25,3.94)

Answer: option b. (1,5) and (5.25,3.94)

Answer:

No

It could be purely due to chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

A population is defined as the whole group which has the same characteristics. For example a population of the college belongs to the same college . But a sample may be an element of a population.

So it is not necessary for a population to have the same characteristics as the sample.

But it is essential for the sample to have at least one same characteristics as the population.

So we would not be correct in inferring that such a relationship also exists in the population.

It is a hypothesis which can be true or false due to certain conditions or limitations as the case maybe.

For example in a population of smokers some may be in the habit of taking cocaine. But a sample of cocaine users does not mean the whole population uses it.

It could be purely due to chance if we find out that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification in the population.
