To find the maximum height you need to find the vertex:(h,k)
Your equation is in vertex form a(x-h)+k and the vertex is (h,k) where k is the maximum height and the h is the distance it went to reach the maximum height.
k=6 so the kangaroo's maximum height is 6 feet.
To find how long is the kangaroo's jump, take a look at the graph. You will notice that the parabola ends at the distance the kangaroo jumped. You will also see that it is the one of the x-intercepts.
-.03(x-14)^2+6=0
-.03(x-14)^2+6-6=0-6
-.03(x-14)^2=-6
-.03/-.03(x-14)=-6/-.03
(x-14)^2=200
[(x-14)^2]^.5=200^.5
x-14=(200)^.5
x-14+14=(200)^.5+14
x≈28.14 feet
The kangaroo jumped a distance of 28.14 feet.
You will notice that the square root of a number gives you two solutions a positive and a negative one. The other solution is -.14, which we know distance is not negative so we do not use that solution. Also, I used the ^.5 instead of using the square root. It is the same.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
For the sake of the problem, let's make female workers "x" and male workers "y".
x+y<40 This equation shows that the total number of workers has a max of 40.
30x+20y<1,000 This equation shows that the total cost the manager pays ($30 to each woman, $20 to each man) has a max of $1,000.
Now you can solve for x and y.
X+y<40
-y -y
X<-y+40
Substitute -y+40 in for X in the second equation
30(-y+40)+20y<1,000
-30y+1200+20y<1,000 Distribute
-10y+1,200<1,000 Combine like terms
-10y<-200 Subtract 1,200
y>20 Divide by -10; flip the sign
Since y>20, and y=male workers, you now know that the minimum
number of male workers he should send is 20
Answer:
I think it would be 9 miles.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
64+52=118 studied in the cafeteria or lounge
but 20 studied in both, so 118-20 = 98 studied there in total
110 -98 = 12
