<u>ANSWER:  </u>

The temperature in Small ville, six hours ago was 13 degrees.

<u> SOLUTION: </u>

Given, current temperature in Smallville is 20 degrees.  

And this is 6 degrees less than twice the temperature that it was six hours ago.

We need to find what was the temperature six hours ago.

Let the temperature six hours ago be x.

Then, 2x - 6 = 20 [ according to the given information

2x = 20 + 6

2x = 26

x = \frac{26}{2}

x = 13 degrees.

Temperature six hours ago was 13 degrees

Hence, the temperature in smallville , six hours ago was 13 degrees.

Answer:

second option

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpendicular lines have a product of -1. The slope of this line is 3 from the graph so the slope of our line will be -1/3. We know the slope of the line and a point (F, G) that belongs to the line so we can use point-slope form.

Point-slope form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) and we know that m = -1/3 and (x₁, y₁) = (F, G) so the answer is y - G = -1/3(x - F).

Write the equation of a parabola that has a vertex of (-2,5.5) and passes through the point (-2.5,2.5).
vekshin1

The equation of a parabola that has a vertex of (-2, 5.5) and passes through the point (-2.5, 2.5) is  y=-12(x+2)^2+5.5

The vertex form of the equation of a parabola is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k

where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola

(x, y) is the point that the parabola passes through

The vertex, (h, k) = (-2, 5.5)

The point, (x, y) = (-2.5, 2.5)

Substitute h = -2, k = 5.5, x = -2.5, and y = 2.5 into the equation to solve for a.

2.5=a(-2.5-(-2))^2+5.5\\\\2.5=a(-2.5+2)^2+5.5\\\\2.5-5.5=a(-2.5+2)^2\\\\-3=a(-0.5)^2\\\\-3=0.25a\\\\a = \frac{-3}{0.25} \\\\a = -12

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is:

y=-12(x-(-2))^2+5.5\\\\y=-12(x+2)^2+5.5

let's firstly, convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction, and then subtract.

FITNESS Alejandro is a personal trainer. For his clients to gain the maximum benefit from their exercise, Alejandro calculates t
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

1). f^{-1}(x) = (200 - \frac{x}{0.85})

2). Inverse function represents the age of the client and 'x' represents the maximum heart rate of the client.

Step-by-step explanation:

Function representing the maximum heart rate is,

f(x) = 0.85(220 - x)

Here x = age of the client

Equation form of the function will be,

y = 0.85(220 - x)

To get the inverse of the given function, replace 'x' by 'y' and 'y' by 'x' and solve for y.

x = 0.85(220 - y)

220 - y = \frac{x}{0.85}

y = 220 - \frac{x}{0.85}

Now convert this equation into a function.

f^{-1}(x) = (200 - \frac{x}{0.85})

Here inverse function represents the age of the client and 'x' represents the maximum heart rate of the client.
