Answer:

300 meters per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Determine the fraction of the total distance for each part of the race.

Given:

1st part of race = 4/9 of total distance

2nd part of race = 2/5 of remaining distance

Step 2

Determine the distance of the third part of the race.

Given:

time = 15 minutes

speed = 300 meters per minute

Step 3

If the third part of the race (which is 1/3 of the total distance) is 4500m, then the distance of the whole race is:

Step 4

Determine the distance of the 1st part of the race:

Step 5

Determine the speed of the 1st part of the race:

Given:

time = 20 minutes

distance = 6000 m

An extraneous solution IS a(n)

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

An invalid solution.

When you use the quadratic formula, for example, to solve for 't', time, you will often find one of the values of 't' to be NEGATIVE value for time.....this would be an extraneous solution.

Sometimes when working with LOG equations you may fin an answer which is negative.....you cannot have a LOG of a negative number...THAT solution would be EXTRANEOUS

ETC

SO, always check your answers to see if they 'work' for your problem.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!!

The parabola hits (-2,1) and (0,-1).
As you can see from the pictures, we can immediately cross out options B and D, since both parabola open upwards.
From the pictures, we can see that the answer is C, since only that parabola opens downwards and hits the points (-2,1) and (0,-1).

10 points pls help. Find all general solutions: 2cos^2(3) − 1 = −sin(3)

steposvetlana [31]

$\bf \textit{Double Angle Identities} \\\\ sin(2\theta)=2sin(\theta)cos(\theta) \\\\ cos(2\theta)= \begin{cases} cos^2(\theta)-sin^2(\theta)\\ 1-2sin^2(\theta)\\ 2cos^2(\theta)-1 \end{cases}\quad \begin{array}{llll} \\ \leftarrow \textit{we'll use}\\ \leftarrow \textit{these two} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{double-angle identity}}{2cos^2(3x)-1}=-sin(3x)\implies cos[2(3x)]=-sin(3x)$

$\bf 1-2sin^2(3x)=-sin(3x)\implies 0=\stackrel{\stackrel{ax^2+bx+c}{\downarrow }}{2sin^2(3x)-sin(3x)-1} \\\\\\ 0=[2sin(3x)+1][sin(3x)-1] \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 0=2sin(3x)+1\implies -1=2sin(3x)\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}=sin(3x) \\\\\\ \cfrac{7\pi }{6}~,~\cfrac{11\pi }{6}=3x\implies \boxed{\cfrac{7\pi }{18}~,~\cfrac{11\pi }{18}=x} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 0=sin(3x)-1\implies 1=sin(3x)\implies \cfrac{\pi }{2}=3x\implies \boxed{\cfrac{\pi }{6}=x}$

now, those angles are the angles in the range of [0, 2π] only.

a general solution angles will be

$\bf \measuredangle x=\stackrel{\textit{first case}}{\cfrac{7\pi }{18}+2\pi n~~,~~\cfrac{11\pi }{18}+2\pi n}~~,~~\stackrel{\textit{second case}}{\cfrac{\pi }{6}+2\pi n}\qquad \qquad \begin{array}{llll} where\\ n\in \mathbb{Z} \end{array}$
