Charlize wants to measure the depth of an empty well. She drops a ball from a height of 3 feet into the well

Mathematics
1 answer:
pentagon [3]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  about 151 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the ball at a time of 3.1 seconds is given by Charlize's equation as ...

  h(3.1) = -16(3.1)^2 +3 = -150.76 . . . feet

The well is about 151 feet deep.

_____

<em>Comment on this measurement</em>

The speed of sound is sufficiently slow that it will make a difference in the time Charlize records. She would get a more accurate measurement if she were able to <em>see</em> the ball hit bottom.

What is the slope and y-intercept in the equation y = 5x - 7?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Slope: 5

y-intercept: -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is written as 'y=mx+b', (x,y) being any point on the line, m its slope, and b the line's y-intercept.

y=mx+b

y=5x-7

In this equation, m=5, and b=-7.

If y - 2x = 3 and y - x = 1, what are the values of x and y?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

x = -2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 2x = 3 and y - x = 1

Subtract the second equation from the first

   y - 2x = 3

- ( y -  x  = 1)

––––––––––

       -x = 2

Multiply both sides by -1

x = -2

Sustitute x = -2 into the first equation

y - 2(-2) = 3

y + 4 = 3

Subtract 4 from both sides

y = -1

1. Without graphing find the vertex and axis of symmetry. Indicate if the vertex is a
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

the vertex is at (2, 5) and the axis of symmetry is x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A word to the wise:  Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation.  And so we have:

y= -2x^2+8x-3

The x-coordinate of the vertex and the equation of the axis of symmetry is determined by the equation

        b                                          -8

x = -------   which here is   x = ----------- = 2

        2a                                     2(-2)

Then the y-coordinate of the vertex is f(2) = -2(-2)^2 + 8(2) - 3 = 8 - 3  = 5

and so the vertex is at (2, 5) and the axis of symmetry is x = 2
