Answer:

Opt. D.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to focus our attention in the abs(x-1) function,

If x>1, then abs|x-1|= x-1, if x<1 then abs|x-1|= 1-x. And in the two intervals, the function opens upwards.

But our function has -3 multiplying abs|x-1|, This means that our function opens downward.

The vertex point can be found when x=1, since abs(x-1)=0. this gives f(1)=12

Similarity ratio is a ratio of two figures having the same side.

Ratio can be rate but rate can never be ratio. In essence, rate is comparison between ratios. While ratio is comparison between two or more numbers. Further, ratio on one hand, involves numbers either in amount, size, measurement, degrees, percentages or fractions with the absence of specific unit of measurement. On the contrary, rate is comparing quantities, amounts or unit of events happened expressed in a specific measurement or expressed under time. Take for instance, an example, Joe eats 2 while John eats 4 meals in a day. The ratio can be Joe: John, 2:4 meals. While the rate, is Joe eats 2 meals/day and John 4 meals/day.<span>

Help me please ;-;!!!!! Use a coordinate grid to create a map of a town with at least five different locations, such as a house,

Sholpan [36]

A. Our diagram have six location: my house (2,1), a movie theater (5,3), the school (6,6), the police station (3,-2), the airport (-3,3), and the mall (-2,-3)

B. Distance between my house and the movie theater:
To calculate the distance we are going to use the points (2,1) and (5,3) to create a right triangle with tow legs of measures 3 and 2; the hypotenuse of the right triangle will be the distance between my house and the movie theater.
Using the Pythagorean theorem:
$d^2=3^2+2^2$
$d^2=9+4$
$d^2=13$
$d= \sqrt{13}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the movie theater is $\sqrt{13}$

Our second distance is the distance between the police station and the airport:
This time we are using the points (3,-2) and (-3,3) to create a right triangle with legs of measures 6 and 5; the hypotenuse of our triangle will be the the distance between our points:
$d^2=6^2+5^2$
$d^2=36+25$
$d^2=61$
$d= \sqrt{61}$
We can conclude that the distance between the police station and the airport is $\sqrt{61}$

C. Distance form the park to the Fire Station:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance from the park to the Fire Station is $\sqrt{10}$

Distance from the stadium to the mall:
$d^2=2^2+1^2$
$d^2=4+1$
$d^2=5$
$d= \sqrt{5}$
We can conclude that the distance from the stadium to the mall is $\sqrt{5}$

D. What is the distance between your house and the mall?
Answer:
$d^2=4^2+4^2$
$d^2=16+16$
$d^2=32$
$d= \sqrt{32}$
$d=4 \sqrt{2}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the mall is $4 \sqrt{2}$

What is the distance between the movie theater and the school?
answer:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance between the movie theater and the school is $\sqrt{10}$

A water storage tank is in the shape of a cone with the pointed end down. If the radius is 21 feet and the depth of the tank is

andre [41]

The volume of the water storage tank is the amount of space in it

The volume of the water storage tank is 6468 cubic feet

<h3>How to determine the volume?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Radius (r) = 21 feet

Height (h) = 14 feet

The shape of the water storage tank is a cone.

And the volume of a cone is:

V = 1/3πr^2h

So, we have:

V = 1/3 * 22/7 * 21^2 * 14

This gives

V = 6468

Hence, the volume of the water storage tank is 6468 cubic feet
