We are given the relation between the height (in feet) and the distance (in miles) as follows:
y = sqrt(1.5x + (x/5280)^2).
We want to know the height (x) that makes the distance (y) = 10 miles
So, we will simply substitute in the above equation with y = 10 and calculate x as follows:
10 = sqrt(1.5x + (x/5280)^2)
we will square both sides to get rid of the root:
100 = 1.5x + (x/5280)^2
1.5x + (x/5280)^2 - 100 = 0
(x-66.11475)(x+7986.1147) = zero
either x = 66.11475 feet (accepted solution)
or x = -7986.1147 feet (rejected solution as no height is in negative)
Answer:
31.5 i think
Step-by-step explanation:i used multi if its wrong im so sorry
Answer:
m = 1, b = -5 y = x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
first find the slope or m
slope is change in y over change in x
-8 - (-6) = -2
-3 - (-1) = -2
-2/-2 = 1
m = 1
y = x + b
use one of the points and solve for b
Answer:
b)-1/2 is the required answer
