Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of girls is represented by 3 parts of the ratio.
Divide number of girls by 3 to find value of one part of ratio.
= 5 ← value of 1 part of ratio, thus
5 parts = 5 × 5 = 25 ← number of boys
Total members = 15 + 25 = 40
Answer:
12. 1 second, 35 ft; 2 seconds, 32 ft
13. (t, y) = (1.4 seconds, 37.6 feet)
14. 37.6 ft; the vertex is the highest point
Step-by-step explanation:
12. You have properly answered question 12.
After 1 second, the height is 35 feet; after 2 seconds, it is 32 feet.
__
13. My method of choice is to plot the graph on a graphing calculator and let it show me the coordinates of the vertex when I highlight that point. (See attached.) The vertex is ...
(t, y) = (1.4, 37.6)
__
14. The graph is a graph of height when the object is launched with a vertical velocity of 45 ft/s. So, the maximum of the graph will correspond to the maximum height of the object. The vertex is that maximum point, and its y-coordinate is that maximum height.
The maximum height is 37.6 feet.
Answer:
y= -2x -8
Step-by-step explanation:
I will be writing the equation of the perpendicular bisector in the slope-intercept form which is y=mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
A perpendicular bisector is a line that cuts through the other line perpendicularly (at 90°) and into 2 equal parts (and thus passes through the midpoint of the line).
Let's find the gradient of the given line.
Gradient of given line
The product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.
(½)(gradient of perpendicular bisector)= -1
Gradient of perpendicular bisector
= -1 ÷(½)
= -1(2)
= -2
Substitute m= -2 into the equation:
y= -2x +c
To find the value of c, we need to substitute a pair of coordinates that the line passes through into the equation. Since the perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint of the given line, let's find the coordinates of the midpoint.
Midpoint of given line
Substituting (-3, -2) into the equation:
-2= -2(-3) +c
-2= 6 +c
c= -2 -6 <em>(</em><em>-</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>on both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>
c= -8
Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -2x -8.
