Answer:

d(t) = -20t - 260

Step-by-step explanation:

The depth function is:

d(t) = mt + b

After 3 minutes, a submarine had descended to −320 feet.

This means that d(3) = -320. So

d(t) = mt + b

-320 = 3m + b

After 8 minutes, the submarine had descended to −420 feet.

This means that d(8) = -420. So

d(t) = mt + b

-420 = 8m + b

From the first equation:

b = -320 - 3m

So

-420 = 8m + b

-420 = 8m - 320 - 3m

5m = -100

m = \frac{-100}{5}

m = -20

And

b = -320 - 3*(-20) = -260

So

d(t) = -20t - 260

Let f(x)=x2+15x+56
Ivan

Answer:

-8, -7

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^2+15x+56

0 =x^2+15x+56

What two numbers multiply together to make 56 and add together to 15

7*8 = 56

7+8=15

0 = (x+8) (x+7)

Then use the zero product property

x+8 =0     x+7 =0

x+8-8 =0-8        x+7-7 =0-7

x=-8                      x=-7

Can someone plz help me with Algebra 2....... :) Will give Brainliest!!
Anarel [89]
Using logarithms property of log(x)+log(y)=log(xy)
so here, you can sum the equation to;
log((x+6)*(x-6))=2
so you can simply say that;
log_{8}((x+6)( x-6))=2
and by multiplying (x+6)*(x-6)
log_{8}(x^2-36)=2
and as you know also that;
a^{b}=c is same as log _{a}c=b
so you can simply state it as;
8^2=x^2-36
64=x^2-36
64+36=x^2
x^2=100
x=10
And you can check your work by substituting with 10 instead of x in the original function.
Hope this helps!

Solve 2x - 11 = k for x.
denis23 [38]
2x + -11 = k

Reorder the terms:
-11 + 2x = k

Solving
-11 + 2x = k

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 11 + 2x = 11 + k

Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 2x = 11 + k
2x = 11 + k

Divide each side by '2'.
x = 5.5 + 0.5k
