Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For any quadratic function f(x)=ax²+bx+c given in form f(x)=a(x-h)²+k, where:

h=-b/2a and k=f(h) the point (h, k) is vertex of the function graph.

It means that k is maximum (if a<0) or minimum (if a>0) value of function and x=h is the x which will maximize function.

A(x) = x(28-2x) = 28x - 2x² = - 2x² + 28x ⇒ a = -2 , b = 28

h = -28/[2•(-2)] = 7

Answer:

$m(n) = 24 (0.75)^n$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The two points are:

a) On the first swing she swings forward by 18 degrees: (1, 18)

b) On the second swing she only comes 13.5 degrees forward: (2,13.5)

2) The general equation using the form given is:

$m(n)=A(B)^n$

3) Substitute the two points:

$18=A(B)\\ \\ 13.5=A(B)^2$

4) Divide the second equation by the first one:

⇒ 13.5 / 18 = B

⇒ B = 0.75

5) Substitue B = 0.75 into the first equation:

18 = A (0.75) ⇒ A = 18 / 0.75 = 24

Hence, the equation is:

$m(n) = 24 (0.75)^n$

Answer:

924/5 ft/s
369.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

126 mi/h = (126 mi)/(1 h)·(5280 ft)/(1 mi)·(1 h)/(3600 s) = (126·5280/3600) ft/s

126 mi/h = 184.8 ft/s = 924/5 ft/s

In 2 seconds, the parachutist falls ...

(184.8 ft/s)·(2 s) = 369.6 ft

Answer:

x = 3

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When 2 triangles are congruent, they will have exact same 3 sides length and exact same 3 angles measure.

So we can say:

-2x + 6y = 6

and

-7x + 8y = -5

Let's multiply first equation by 7 and 2nd equation by -2, to get:

7 [-2x + 6y = 6] = -14x +42y = 42

and

-2 [-7x + 8y = -5] = 14x - 16y = 10

Now adding these 2 new equations and solving for y:

-14x +42y = 42

14x - 16y = 10

----------------------

26y = 52

y = 52/26

y = 2

Now we put y = 2 into 1st equation (or any other) and solve for x:

-2x + 6y = 6

-2x + 6(2) = 6

-2x + 12 = 6

6 = 2x

x = 6/2

x = 3
