A jet boat is used to take canoers 200 miles upriver to their starting point. As the driver of the jet boat, Jeremy knows that i

t will take him 5 hours to get the canoers upstream, but only 4 hours to get the boat back downstream after dropping the canoers off, as long as he keeps the boat moving at a constant speed.

Equation that represents the line that passes through the point (-2,-1) and has a slope of 5
ss7ja [257]
Straight line:
y = mx + c
m is the slope of the graph and c is the y-intercept
In this case, m = 5 as stated in the question, so...
y = 5x + c
By substituting the given co-ordinates (-2,-1) into this equation, we can find c
-1 = 5(-2) + c
-1 = -10 + c
-1 + 10 = -10 + c + 10 (Add 10 to both sides)
9 = c
c = 9
Put c = 9 into the equation:
y = 5x + 9

Find the roots of h(t) = (139kt)^2 − 69t + 80
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The positive value of k will result in exactly one real root is approximately 0.028.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h(t) = 19321\cdot k^{2}\cdot t^{2}-69\cdot t +80, roots are those values of t so that h(t) = 0. That is:

19321\cdot k^{2}\cdot t^{2}-69\cdot t + 80=0 (1)

Roots are determined analytically by the Quadratic Formula:

t = \frac{69\pm \sqrt{4761-6182720\cdot k^{2} }}{38642}

t = \frac{69}{38642} \pm \sqrt{\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321}  }

The smaller root is t = \frac{69}{38642} - \sqrt{\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321}  }, and the larger root is t = \frac{69}{38642} + \sqrt{\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321}  }.

h(t) = 19321\cdot k^{2}\cdot t^{2}-69\cdot t +80 has one real root when \frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} = 0. Then, we solve the discriminant for k:

\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} = \frac{4761}{1493204164}

k \approx \pm 0.028

The positive value of k will result in exactly one real root is approximately 0.028.

Please explain the answer​
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths satisfy the Pythagorean theorem, so the triangle is a right triangle.

  7.5² +10² = 12.5²

  56.25 +100 = 156.25

_____

You may recognize that the ratios of side lengths are ...

  7.5 : 10 : 12.5 = 3 : 4 : 5

A 3-4-5 triangle is a well-known right triangle, as this is the smallest set of integers that satisfy the Pythagorean theorem. They also happen to be consecutive integers, so form an arithmetic sequence. Any arithmetic sequence that satisfies the Pythagorean theorem will have these ratios.

_____

If you're familiar with trigonometry, you know the law of cosines tells you ...

  c² = a² + b² - 2ab·cos(θ) . . . . where θ is the angle between sides a and b. This reduces to the Pythagorean theorem when θ=90°, which makes cos(θ)=0. If the sides do not satisfy the Pythagorean theorem, cos(θ)≠0 and the triangle is not a right triangle.
