A food packet is dropped from a helicopter and is modeled by the function f(x) = −15x2 + 6000. The graph below shows the height

f(x), in feet, of the food packet at different times x, in seconds: graph of function f of x equals 6000 minus 15 multiplied by x squared Use the graph to determine the reasonable domain of f(x) based on the context. x ≤ 6000 0 ≤ x ≤ 20 −20 ≤ x ≤ 20 All real numbers

General Idea:

Domain of a function means the values of x which will give a DEFINED output for the function.

Applying the concept:

Given that the x represent the time in seconds, f(x) represent the height of food packet.

Time cannot be a negative value, so

x\geq 0

The height of the food packet cannot be a negative value, so

f(x)\geq 0

We need to replace -15x^2+6000 for f(x) in the above inequality to find the domain.

-15x^2+6000\geq 0 \; \;  [Divide \; by\; -15\; on\; both\; sides]\\ \\ \frac{-15x^2}{-15} +\frac{6000}{-15} \leq \frac{0}{-15} \\ \\ x^2-400\leq 0\;[Factoring\;on\;left\;side]\\ \\ (x+200)(x-200)\leq 0

The possible solutions of the above inequality are given by the intervals (-\infty , -2], [-2,2], [2,\infty ). We need to pick test point from each possible solution interval and check whether that test point make the inequality (x+200)(x-200)\leq 0 true. Only the test point from the solution interval [-200, 200] make the inequality true.

The values of x which will make the above inequality TRUE is -200\leq x\leq 200

But we already know x should be positive, because time cannot be negative.

Conclusion:

Domain of the given function is 0\leq x\leq 200

The radius of a cylinder is 5" and the lateral area is 70 pi sq. In. Find the length in altitude
aev [14]
We are to solve for the value of the altitude of the given cylinder which has a radius of 5 feet and a lateral area of 70pi ft². To solve this we should recall that the formula in solving the lateral area of a cylinder is Lateral Area = 2pi*r*h. The solution is shown below:
r is equal to 5 ft
lateral area = 70pi
Solving for h, we have:
70pi = 2pi*5*h
70pi / 2pi = 5h
35 = 5h
divide both sides by 5, we have:
35/5 = 5h/5
7 = h

The answer for the length of the altitude is 7 feet.

If you divided 20acres of land into 1\4 acre section how !any sections doses it divied to
LuckyWell [14K]
If you divide 20 acres into 1/4 sections you'll get
20 ÷ 1/4 sections. When you divide fractions, you just multiply the reciprocal.

20 ÷ 1/4 =
20 × 4/1 = 80 sections
