The linear function that describes Juan's elevation during his descent is:

B. y = -1460x + 7500.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem, each hour, the height decays by 1460, hence the slope is of m = -1460, then:

y = -1460x + b.

The y-intercept is found considering that when x = 1, y = 6040, hence:

b = 6040 + 1460 = 7500.

Which means that option B is correct.

Identify the solution set for: −2|−2x−4|=−12
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

C: {−5, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with −2|−2x−4|=−12, divide both sides by -2:

|−2x−4| =  6

Reduce this by dividing all terms by 2:

|-x - 2| = 3

This is equivalent to   x + 2 = 3  and  x + 2 = - 3

Solving thse two equations, we get x = 1 and x = -5

And so the solution set is  C: {−5, 1)

You have found that the force of the wagon is F = 45(cos 15° i + sin 15° j) and the displacement of the wagon is v = 45i. Use th
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

1956.2 ft-lb

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that force of the wagon

F=45(cos 15^{\circ}+sin 15^{\circ} J)

Displacement of the wagon =45 i

We know that

Work done, W=F\cdot v

Substitute the values then we get

W=45(cos 15^{\circ}+sin 15^{\circ} J)\cdot 45i

W= 2025 15^{\circ}

W=2025\times 0.966

w=1956.2 ft- lb

Hence, Work done on the wagon=1956.2 ft-lb

Aaron is going to a carnival that has games and rides. Each game cost $2.75 and each ride cost $4.75. Aaron spent $20.50 altoget
padilas [110]

Answer:

<u>Aaron played 4 games and went on 2 rides at the carnival.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Cost of each game = US$ 2.75

Cost of each ride = US$ 4.75

Total spent by Aaron at the carnival = US$ 20.50

Number of rides = x

Number of games = 2x (the number of games he played is twice the number of rides he went on)

2. Determine the number of games Aaron played and the number of rides Aaron went on.

For determine the number of games and the number of rides, we will use the following equation:

2.75 (2x) + 4.75x = 20.50

5.5x + 4.75x = 20.50

10.25x = 20.50

x = 20.50/10.25

x = 2 ⇒ 2x = 4

<u>Aaron played 4 games and went on 2 rides at the carnival.</u>
