Zane is a dangerous fellow who likes to go rock climbing in active volcanoes. One time, when he was 202020 meters below the edge

of a volcano, he heard some rumbling, so he decided to climb up out of there as quickly as he could. He managed to climb up 444 meters each second and get out of the volcano safely. Graph Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds).

Answer:

f(x) = -4x + 20   

Refer attachment for graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: when Zane was 20 meters below the edge of a volcano. He heard some rumbling, so he decided to climb up out of there as quickly as he could. He managed to climb up 4 meters each second and get out of the volcano safely.

We have to graph Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds).

Let he takes x seconds to get out of the volcano.

and y be the distance covered by the volcano to reach Zane.

Then, to reach the edge of volcano,  

Thus, The equation that represent Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds). is given by

f(x) = -4x + 20     

At x = 0 the Zane will be at f(0) = 20 that is 20 meter below the volcano.

Thus points are (0,20)

and when x = 5 Zane will be escaped from volcano.

Thus points are (5,0)

Plot this and obtained the graph for the given equation as attached below.

Answer:  The graph is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that when Zane was 20 meters below the edge of a volcano, he heard some rumbling, so he decided to climb up out of there as quickly as he could.

He managed to climb up 4 meters each second and get out of the volcano safely.

We are to graph Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds).

Let, 't' represents the time (along X-axis) and f(t) represents Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano(along Y-axis).

When t = 0, then f(t) = 20.

When t = 1, then f(t) = 20 - 4 = 16.

So, (0, 20) and (1, 16) are two points on the graph.

The slope of the line joining (0, 20) and (1, 16) is

m=\dfrac{16-20}{1-0}=-4.

Therefore, the equation of the line will be

y-16=-4(x-1)\\\\\Rightarrow y-16=-4x+4\\\\\Rightarrow 4x+y=20.

The graph of Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds) is shown in the attached figure.

Which expression shows how 6 • 45 can be rewritten using the distributive property?
tatuchka [14]
6*45=270 is the first step you should do to get the answer you are looking for. The next thing I would do is go to all the answers to see which one comes out the same way. The first one comes to be 246, the next one is 54, the next is 270 and the last one is 220. 6*40+6*5 is the correct answer.

A track-and-field athlete releases a javelin. The height of the javelin as a function of time is shown on the graph below. Use t
Georgia [21]
Part 1:
 
 For this case we must see in the graph the axis of symmetry of the given parabola.
 We have then that the axis of symmetry is the vertical line t = 2.
 Answer:
 
The height of the javelin above the ground is symmetric about the line t = 2 seconds:

 
Part 2:

 
For this case, we must see the time t for which the javelin reaches a height of 20 feet for the first time.
 We then have that when evaluating t = 1, the function is h (1) = 20. To do this, just look at the graph.
 Then, we must observe the moment when it returns to be 20 feet above the ground.
 For this, observing the graph we see that:
 h (3) = 20 feet
 Therefore, a height of 20 feet is again reached in 3 seconds.
 Answer:
 
The javelin is 20 feet above the ground for the first time at t = 1 second and again at t = 3 seconds

Find x please so difficult
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached is a screenshot.

y = 180 - 50 - 70 = 60.

x + y = 180, so x = 120

Remember to try to use parallel lines when you can

The second uses the same method, just the opposite side.

The school is 3.2 blocks from someone’s house. how many blocks does the person walk to go to and from school?
DENIUS [597]

The answer is: " 6.4 blocks " .

________________________________________________________

3.2 blocks (one way), PLUS: 3.2 blocks the other way:

3.2 + 3.2 = 6.4 blocks .

or: (3.2) * 2 = 6.4 blocks .

________________________________________________

The answer is: " 6.4 blocks " .
