A plane loses altitude at the rate of 5 meters per second. It begins with an altitude of 8500 meters. The planes altitude is a f

unction of the number of seconds that pass. How much time will pass before the plane will land

Answer:

28.33 min

Step-by-step explanation:

altitude = 8500 m - (5 m/sec)t

To determine the length of time that will pass before the plane will land, set this altitude function = to 0 and solve for t:  This assumes that "land" is at sea level.

(5 m/sec)t = 8500 m

t = (8500 m) / (5 m/sec) = 1700 sec, or 28.33 min (since 60 sec = 1 min)

Which function is the inverse of f Superscript negative 1 Baseline (x) = negative one-fifth x minus four-fifths?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

f(x) = -5x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to get the inverse of the following function:

f^-1(x) = (-1/5)x - 4/5

To do that, we have to replace x with f(x) and f^-1(x) with x, as follows:

x = (-1/5)f(x) - 4/5

And then solve for f(x), the inverse of f^-1(x).

x + 4/5 = (-1/5)f(x)

f(x) = -5x + (-5)4/5

f(x) = -5x - 4

To check our result we compute a pair (x, f(x))

x   f(x)

1   -5*1 - 4 = -9

which has to be equivalent to (-9, 1) in the original function

x      f^-1(x)

-9     (-1/5)*(-9) - 4/5 = 1

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point C to point D. Point C is at (negative 1, 4) and point D is at (2, 0). Point C
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

distance = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we can start by plotting the two points you were provided with (see attached picture). This will help us visualize the problem better.

Now, we need to find the distance between those two points, so in order to do so we can use the distance formula:

distance = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

in this case the x's and y's are given by the given points, since they are written as ordere pairs. And ordered pairs are written in the form (x,y). So for Point C:

C=(-1,4)

x_{1}=-1

y_{1}=4

and for point D

D=(2.0)

x_{2}=2

y_{2}=0

so we can now use those values in our distance formula so we get:

d=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^{2}+(0-4)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(-4)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{9+16}

d=\sqrt{25}

d=5 units.

Select the correct answer. describe the zeros of the graphed function
katrin [286]

Answer:

The zeroes are at (-2, 0), (0, 0) and (2, 0).

The (0, 0) is a double root as the graph just touches the x axis at (0, 0).

The zero at (0, 0) is sometimes referred as  x = 0 (multiplicity 2).

I think the duplicate roots are counted as 2 distinct roots but im not sure.

So the answer is either a or c.

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes are the points where the graph cuts the x axis.
