Given parameters:
Equation:
(x-4)²=9
Problem: Solve the equation by both factoring and extracting the square root.
Solution:
Starting equation:
(x-4)²=9
Subtracting 9 from both sides brings us to zero;
(x-4)² - 9 = 0
(x -4)² - 3² = 0
This fits the concept of the difference of squares;
x² - y² = (x + y)(x-y)
Let x = x-4 and y = -3
Then input and solve;
(x - 4 -3)(x - 4 -(-3)) = 0
(x - 7)(x - 1) = 0
S thus,
x - 7 = 0 or x-1 = 0
x = 7 or 1
<pBy extracting the square roots;
(x-4)² = 9
√(x-4)² = √9
x - 4 = 3
x = 4 + 3 = 7; however, this is not the sole solution
Thus, direct extraction of the square root is not the method for complete solutions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It has been established that the count of drivers traveling between a specific origin and destination in a certain time frame follows a Poisson distribution with a mean μ = 20 (as indicated in the article "Dynamic Ride Sharing: Theory and Practice"†).
a) 
b) 
c) 
d) 2 standard deviations = 2(20) = 40
Thus, this means the range for 2 standard deviations is
20-40, 20+40
which equates to (0,60)

The question clearly seeks the highest values from both functions, meaning the vertices of each.
<span>The graph depicting the path of Ed’s football indicates the vertex's coordinates (the peak of the graph).

Specifically,
(h,k) = (1.5, 7.5)
Where (h,k) represents the vertex's location.
Conversely,<span>the trajectory of Steve's football is defined by the equation:
y = - 2x
²</span>
+ 5x + 4<span>
To find the axis of symmetry, we use the formula:x = - b
÷ 2a
Where:
a = -2</span>
b = 5
Consequently,
x = - 5 ÷ - 4
x = 5 / 4
x = 1.25
Now substituting this x-value back into the main equation to determine y.
y = - 2x² + 5x + 4y = - 2(1.25)² + 5(1.25) + 4
y = - 3.125 + 6.25 + 4
y = 7.125
Thus, the vertex (h,k) = (1.25, 7.125)
As observed from the calculationsEd’s
<span>football attains a higher height.
