Suppose the santa monica has a hull length that is 10 ft shorter than that of the nina pinta. what expression represents the hul
1 answer:
The hull speed of a boat when given by the function v = 1.34√l, makes the expression represent the speed of Santa Monica, v = a√b, with <u>a = 1.34</u>, and <u>b = ln - 10</u>, where lₙ is the length of the Nina Pinta. The restriction on lₙ is that <u>lₙ > 10</u>.
In the question, we are asked to express the speed of the boat of Santa Monica in terms of the length, lₙ of the Nina Pinta.
We are informed that the function is represented as v = a√b, for the speed of Santa Monica.
We are given that the hull speed of a boat of length l is given as v = 1.34√l.
Comparing, the speed of Santa Monica v = a√b, to the general formula v = 1.34√l, we get:
a = 1.34, and
b = the length of the boat of Santa Monica.
The length of the boat of Santa Monica is 10 ft. shorter than of Nina Pinta.
Thus, b = lₙ - 10, where lₙ is the length of the boat of Nina Pinta.
Since b has to be positive, as the function involves square root over b, lₙ - 10 > 0, or, lₙ > 10, is the restriction on the length of the boat of Nina Pinta.
Thus, the hull speed of a boat when given by the function v = 1.34√l, makes the expression represent the speed of Santa Monica, v = a√b, with <u>a = 1.34</u>, and <u>b = ln - 10</u>, where lₙ is the length of the Nina Pinta. The restriction on lₙ is that <u>lₙ > 10</u>.

Answer:
This translates to "y is any real number such that it is 0 or larger".
The reasoning is that the result of any absolute value function is either 0 or positive. In other words, we'll never get a negative result of an absolute value function. This is due to how absolute value represents distance. Negative distance does not make sense.
So if y = |x-3| then y = 0 is the smallest output possible. We could have any positive output we want.
In terms of a graph (see below), the V shape is at the lowest point (3,0). The y coordinate is all we care about in terms of finding the range. So we see the lowest y value is y = 0.
