At one of new york’s traffic signals, if more than 17 cars are held up at the intersection, a traffic officer will intervene and direct the traffic. the hourly traffic pattern from 12: 00 p. m. to 10: 00 p. m. mimics the random numbers generated between 5 and 25. (this holds true if there are no external factors such as accidents or car breakdowns.) scenario hour number of cars held up at intersection a noon−1: 00 p. m. 16 b 1: 00−2: 00 p. m. 24 c 2: 00−3: 00 p. m. 6 d 3: 00−4: 00 p. m. 21 e 4: 00−5: 00 p. m. 15 f 5: 00−6: 00 p. m. 24 g 6: 00−7: 00 p. m. 9 h 7: 00−8: 00 p. m. 9 i 8: 00−9: 00 p. m. 9 based on the data in the table, which scenarios would require a traffic cop?

Scenario B ,D and F requires traffic cops.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scenario        Hour         Number of Cars Held Up at Intersection

A             noon−1:00 p.m.             16  

B             1:00−2:00 p.m.              24  

C            2:00−3:00 p.m.               6  

D            3:00−4:00 p.m.              21  

E             4:00−5:00 p.m.              15  

F             5:00−6:00 p.m.              24  

G           6:00−7:00 p.m.                9  

H           7:00−8:00 p.m.                 9  

I              8:00−9:00 p.m.                9

We are given that  if more than 17 cars are held up at the intersection, a traffic officer will intervene and direct the traffic.

So, through the given table we can see that Scenario B ,D and F has more than 17 cars .

So, Scenario B ,D and F requires traffic cops.

answer: -2+√x,-2-√x

i hope this , i don't know if you're looking for a pair or not.
