Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the value is $7700

And is decreased by =2/7

$(2/7)*7700.

=$2*(7700/7)

=$2*1100

=$2200

so, new value of car=$(7700-2200) =$5500

Ta daa! $5500 is the new value of the car.

Answer:

$5500 is the new value of the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

actual value of car=$7700

fraction of value decreased=2/7

so, amount of car's value decreased=

$(2/7)*7700.

=$2*(7700/7)

=$2*1100

=$2200

so, new value of car=$(7700-2200) =$5500

Sanjay and Felipe are putting together a 500-piece puzzle. Sanjay could do the entire puzzle by himself in 6 hours, while it wou

Nata [24]

What is the time it takes Sanjay to complete the puzzle? 6 hours

What is the time it takes Felipe to complete the puzzle? 8 hours

We can use the general formula of rate and time to solve this problem. Generally we have,

Rate * Time = Work/Job

** where Work/Job for this problem is 1 since they are doing 1 work, which is solving a puzzle

Finding rate of Sanjay:

$R(6)=1\\R=\frac{1}{6}$

Finding rate of Felipe:

$R(8)=1\\R=\frac{1}{8}$

Working together, their rate is the sum,

Total Rate = $\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{24}$ .

Using the general formula again, we can find the time it will take to solve the puzzle when both works together.

$(\frac{7}{24})T=1\\ T=\frac{1}{\frac{7}{24}}= \frac{24}{7} = 3.43$ hours

Rounding the answer, we have 3.4 hours.

ANSWER: 3.4 hours

Polynomial Functions in context. a. A baseball is struck such that its position on a plane perpendicular to home plate can be de

Brums [2.3K]

The position of the ball when it is at its highest point is 121

<h3>Polynomial function</h3>

Given the polynomial function expressed as y = -1/250(x - 175)^2 + 121,

The velocity of the ball at the maximum point is zero. Hence;

dy/dx = -1/125(x-175)

Equating to zero;

0 = -1/125(x - 175)

x = 175

Substitute into the function to get the maximum height

y = -1/250(175 - 175)^2 + 121,

y = 121

Hence the position of the ball when it is at its highest point is 121

$\quad \huge \quad \quad \boxed{ \tt \:Answer }$

$\qquad \tt \rightarrow \:f < 0$

____________________________________

$\large \tt Solution \: :$

$\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 33 + 6f < 33$

[ subtract 33 on both sides ]

$\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 33 - 33+ 6f < 33 - 33$

$\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: 6f < 0$

$\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: f < 0$
