Can someone answer 15b

Mathematics
1 answer:
NISA [10]3 years ago
6 0
A)

well, we know the elevator's rate is -20 f/s, ok, so every second, is dropping 20 feet, therefore, "y" is "distance from the ground floor", so when y = 0, meaning the distance to the ground floor is 0, so you ARE at the ground floor then.

and "x" is how many seconds you've been in the elevator.

now, she got in the elevator for 6 seconds, so, the elevator went down by 20 * 6, or 120 feet down, reason why the slope is negative, when she stopped, she was 350 feet away from the ground floor still though.

if the elevator went down 120 feet, and she's still 350 feet from the ground floor, that means  she boarded the elevator at 120 + 350 feet, or 470 feet.

b)

\bf \begin{array}{lcccllll}
&\stackrel{\textit{elapsed seconds}}{x_1}&\stackrel{\textit{ft from ground-floor}}{y_1}\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ 6}}\quad ,&{{ 350}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies -20
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-350=-20(x-6)
\\\\\\
y-350=-20x+120\implies  y=-20x+\stackrel{y-intercept}{470}

Julia has to mow two yards she will need 13/16 gallon of gas to mow the first yard and 2/5 gallon to mow the second yard she has
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Julia has  enough gas to mow the two yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Julia needs \frac{13}{16} gallon of gas to mow first yard.

Julia needs \frac{2}{5} gallon of gas to mow second yard.

Julia has a total of 1\frac{1}{2} gallon of gas in in her can.

To find whether she has enough to mow both yards.

Solution:

Total gallons of gas needed to mow two yards can be found out by :

⇒ \frac{13}{16}+\frac{2}{5}

Taking LCD =80.

⇒ \frac{13\times 5}{16\times 5}+\frac{2\times 16}{5\times 16}

⇒ \frac{65}{80}+\frac{32}{80}

Adding the numerators.

⇒ \frac{97}{80}

⇒ 1.2125 gallons

Julia has 1\frac{1}{2} gallon = 1.5 gallons of gas in in her can.

Since  1.5>1.21 , thus we can say that Julia has enough gas to mow the two yards.

1) Simplify 1/3(6x+15) to 6x+15/3

-6x+15/3 - 3

2) Factor out the common term 3.

-3(2x+5)/3 - 3

3) Cancel 3.

-(2x+5)-3

4) Remove parentheses.

-2x-5-3

5) Collect like terms.

-2x+(-5-3)

6) Simplify

-2x-8
