The function f(x) = –2x2 + 32 represents the height of an object, f(x), after x seconds. How many seconds does it take for the object to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The height of an object, f(x), after x seconds is

[tex]f(x)=-2x^2+32[/tex]

To find:

The time taken be object to hit the ground.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]f(x)=-2x^2+32[/tex]

The object will hit the ground if the height is 0, i.e., f(x)=0.

[tex]0=-2x^2+32[/tex]

[tex]2x^2=32[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]x^2=\dfrac{32}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x^2=16[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides.

[tex]x=\pm 4[/tex]

Time cannot be negative. So, x=4.

Therefore, the object will hit the ground after 4 seconds.

A new shopping mall records 120 total shoppers on their first day of business. Each day after that, the number of shoppers is 10, percent more than the number of shoppers the day before. What is the total number of shoppers that visited the mall in the first 7 days?

Answers

Answer:

1138

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

We can represent it perfectly in an exponential form:

[tex]m = p(q)^x[/tex]

where;

p = initial value = 120

q = base of the exponential form

q = 1 + r

here; r = rate in decimal = 10% = 0.1

Then q can now be = 1 + 0.1 = 1.1

Replacing it into the exponential form, we get:

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^x[/tex]

where;

x = number of days and m = number of shoppers

Thus:

For the first day:

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^x[/tex]

m = 120

For the second day:

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^1[/tex]

m = 132

For the third day:

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^2[/tex]

m = 145.2

For the fourth day

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^3[/tex]

m = 159.72

For the  fifth-day

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^4[/tex]

m = 175.692

For the sixth-day

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^5[/tex]

m = 193.2612

For the seventh-day

[tex]m = 120(1.1)^6[/tex]

m = 212.58732

Thus; the total numbers of shoppers for the first 7 days is:

[tex]= 120+ 132 + 145.2 + 159.72 + 175.692+193.2612+212.58732[/tex]

= 1138.46052

Felicia, Ingrid, Meiko and Tatiana spent a total of $31.50 at the baseball game. Felicia spent $4.25. Ingrid spent twice as much as Felicia. Meiko spent $1.90 more than Ingrid. How much did Tatiana spend?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Tatiana = \$8.35[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Total = \$31.50[/tex]

[tex]Felicia = \$4.25[/tex]

[tex]Ingrid = 2 * Felicia[/tex]

[tex]Meiko = \$1.90 + Ingrid[/tex]

Required

Determine amount spent by Ingrid

We have that:

[tex]Ingrid = 2 * Felicia[/tex]

Substitute $4.25 for Felicia

[tex]Ingrid = 2 * \$4.25[/tex]

[tex]Ingrid = \$8.5[/tex]

We also have that:

[tex]Meiko = \$1.90 + Ingrid[/tex]

Substitute $8.5 for Ingrid

[tex]Meiko = \$1.90 + \$8.50[/tex]

[tex]Meiko = \$10.40[/tex]

The total can be represented as thus:

[tex]Felicia + Ingrid + Meiko + Tatiana = Total[/tex]

[tex]\$4.25 + \$8.50 + \$10.40 + Tatiana = \$31.50[/tex]

[tex]\$23.15+ Tatiana = \$31.50[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]Tatiana = \$31.50 - \$23.15[/tex]

[tex]Tatiana = \$8.35[/tex]

Ok so the slope intercept formula is y=Mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The slope formula is y1-y2/x1-x2 so the slope is -1/8 and the y intercept is 0. So the equation in slope intercept form would be y=-1/8x+0

Eq. 1: 2x - 3y = -1; Eq. 2: y = x - 1
B. Solve the problem using any method.
The sum of two numbers is 32 and the difference is 2. Find the numbers​

Answers

The given equations are

[tex]2x-3y=-1\cdots(i) \\\\y=x-1\cdots(ii)[/tex]

(a) Solution by graphing both the equations:

Graph for both the equations (i) and (ii) are in the figure. The point of intersection of both the graph is the solution of the equations.

From the graph, the point of intersection is (4,3)).

Hence, the required solution is (4,3).

(b) Solution by elimination method:

Equations (ii) can be written as -x+y=-1, now multiply it by 2, we have

[tex]-2x+2y=-2\cdots(iii)[/tex]

Add equations (i) and (iii), we have

2x-3y=-1

-2x+2y=-2

__________

[tex]\Rightarrow -3y+2y=-1-2\\\\ \Rightarrow -y=-3\\\\ \Rightarrow y=3.[/tex]

Putting the value of y=3 in equation (i), we have

[tex]2x-3\times 3=-1 \\\\\Rightarrow 2x=-1+9=8 \\\\\Rightarrow x=8/2=4[/tex]

Hence, the required solution is (4,4).

(c) Solution by substitution method:

Substituting the value of y from equation (ii) to equation (i), we have

[tex]2x-3(x-1)=-1 \\\\\Rightarrow 2x-3x+3=-1 \\\\\Rightarrow -x=-1-4=-4 \\\\\Rightarrow x=4[/tex]

Putting the value of x=4 in equation (i), we have

[tex]y=4-1=3[/tex].

Hence, the required solution is (4,3).

PLEASEE HELP.!! ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST.!! *EXTRA POINTS* DONT SKIP:((

Answers

Answer:

I have attached a picture of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

So for 3 miles, they are charged $6 and for 5 miles, $8. This means that for 5-3 = 2 miles, they are charged $8-$6 = $2.

2 miles = $2

1 mile = $1

We will apply this charging rate for 3 miles since we know there is a flat fee added into it too.

3 miles = $3

Flat fee = $6 - $3

            = $3

That means that at 0 miles, there is a flat fee of $3, and so the graph would start at 3 on the x-axis even when the y-axis (representing the miles) is at 0 (0 miles).

You also know that for each mile, there is an increase of $1, so the graph should increase upwards at 1 dollar per 1 mile. I have attached the graph for you.
