Answer:

2.0 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given quadratic functions</u>:

\begin{cases}y=-7x^2+26x+3\\y=-6x^2 +23x+5\end{cases}

To find the time, in seconds, that the balloons collided at the highest point, <u>substitute</u> one equation into the other equation and rearrange to <u>equal zero</u>:

\begin{aligned}-6x^2+23x+5 & = -7x^2+26x+3\\-6x^2+23x+5+7x^2 & = -7x^2+26x+3+7x^2\\x^2+23x+5 & = 26x+3\\x^2+23x+5-26x & = 26x+3-26x\\x^2-3x+5& = 3\\x^2-3x+5-3& = 3-3\\x^2-3x+2& = 0\end{aligned}

<u>Factor</u> the quadratic:

\begin{aligned}x^2-3x+2 & = 0\\x^2-2x-x+2 & = 0\\x(x-2)-1(x-2) & = 0\\(x-1)(x-2) & = 0\\\end{aligned}

Apply the <u>zero-product property</u> to solve for x:

\implies (x-1)=0 \implies x=1

\implies (x-2)=0 \implies x=2

Therefore, the balloons collided at 1 second and 2 seconds.  

To find at which time the highest point of collision occured, substitute both values of x into one of the functions:

f(1)=-6(1)^2 +23(1)+5=22

f(2)=-6(2)^2 +23(2)+5=27

Therefore, the time, in seconds, that the balloons collided at the highest point is 2.0 seconds.

Equate both and solve

  • -7x²+26x+3=-6x²+23x+5
  • -7x²+6x²+26x-23x+3-5=0
  • -x²+3x-2=0
  • x²-3x+2=0
  • (x-2)(x-1)=0

x=2,1

The collisions happen at 1s and 2s

As only 2s is included in our options option A is correct

Enter a recursive rule for the geometric sequence.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

x_{n} = 5 \ * \ (-2)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the geometric sequence:

5, −10, 20, −40, ...

The first term is a = 5  

And the common ratio = r = -10/5 = -2

The general rule of geometric sequence is

x_{n} = a \ * \ r^{n-1}

So, the rule for the given geometric sequence is:

x_{n} = 5 \ * \ (-2)^{n-1}

A bag contains 10 blue marbles, 7 white marbles, 6 red marbles, and 2 Green marbles. what is the probability of randomly selecti
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of blue marbles = 10

Number of white marbles = 7

Number of Red marbles = 6

Number of Green marbles = 2

Total marbles = 10 + 7 + 6 + 2 = 25

Probability of selecting the blue marble = 10/25 = 2/5

Após recuperar-se de uma cirurgia, o treinador da corredora Andrea estipulou um plano de treinamento diário: correr 500 metros n
user100 [1]

Explicación paso a paso:

La distancia recorrida el primer día = 500 m

Si aumenta la distancia en 200 m diariamente, entonces el total corrido diariamente formará una progresión aritmética con el último término de 10 km (10,000) como se muestra;

500, (500 + 200), (500 + 200 + 200) ... 10,000

500, 700, 900 ... 10,000

para que sepamos el número total de días usados ​​para la carrera, usaremos la fórmula para calcular el enésimo término de una secuencia aritmética como se muestra;

T_n = a+(n-1)d where;

n es el número de términos

a es el primer término de la secuencia

d es la diferencia común

Dado a partir de la secuencia:

a = 500

Tn = 10,000

d = 700-500 = 900-700 = 200

Sustituir en la fórmula y calcular el valor de n

10,000 = 500+(n-1)*200\\10,000 = 500+(200n-200)\\10,000 = 500-200+200n\\200n = 10,000-300\\200n = 9,700\\n = 9,700/200\\n = 48.5

Andrea habría alcanzado los 10.000km tras 48,5 días de carrera
