Write a function to model the data.

x −3 −1 1 3 5
y −16 0 8 8 0

  f(x) = -(x +1)(x -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros at x = -1 and x = 5 tell us we can write this quadratic function as ...

  f(x) = a(x +1)(x -5)

for some scale factor "a".

When we put x=1 into the equation, we get ...

  f(1) = a(1+1)(1-4) = -8a

But we know that f(1) = 8, so ...

  8 = -8a

  -1 = a . . . . . . divide by -8

Now, we can write the function as ...

  f(x) = -(x +1)(x -5)

_____

If you like, you can expand this to ...

  f(x) = -(x^2 -4x -5)

  f(x) = -x^2 +4x +5 . . . . . "standard form"

3-4

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 3-4 because both 45 and 60 has a multiple of 15.

45/3=15

60/4=15

therefore the odds against selecting a red is 4-3

3/6 chance

step-by-step explanation:

half of the nubers are odd numbers (1,3,5) which in that case if you would be told to simplify it would be 1/2
