Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 6 = 20
2x = 20 + 6
2x = 26
x = 26/2
x = 13 <==
Answer:
The kinetic energy is 20,000\ J
Step-by-step explanation:
The kinetic energy of a body is defined as:

Where <em>m</em> is the mass of the roller coaster car
<em>s</em> is the speed and <em>k</em> is the kinetic energy
We know that 

Then the kinetic energy of the roller coaster car is:

9514 1404 393
Answer:
(a, b, c) = (-0.425595, 11.7321, 2.16667)
f(x) = -0.425595x² +11.7321x +2.16667
f(1) ≈ 13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A suitable tool makes short work of this. Most spreadsheets and graphing calculators will do quadratic regression. All you have to do is enter the data and make use of the appropriate built-in functions.
Desmos will do least-squares fitting of almost any function you want to use as a model. It tells you ...
a = -0.425595
b = 11.7321
c = 2.16667
so
f(x) = -0.425595x² +11.7321x +2.16667
and f(1) ≈ 13.5

<em>Additional comment</em>
Note that a quadratic function doesn't model the data very well if you're trying to extrapolate to times outside the original domain.
