Kari and Samantha have determined that their water-balloon launcher works best when they launch the balloon at an angle within 3

degrees of 45 degrees. Which equation can be used to determine the minimum and maximum optimal angles of launch, and what is the minimum angle that is still optimal? a. |x – 3| = 45; minimum angle: 42 degrees b. |x – 3| = 45; minimum angle: 45 degrees c. |x – 45| = 3; minimum angle: 42 degrees d. |x – 45| = 3; minimum angle: 45 degrees

ANSWER

<span>|x – 45| = 3; minimum angle: 42 

======

EXPLANATION

In general, the distance between two real numbers x and y is given by |x - y|.

Therefore, the distance between the launch angle, x, and 45 degrees is

   |x - 45|

"Within three degrees" means the maximum and minimum angles are when the distance between x and 45 is 3 degrees. We set the distance to equal 3:

   |x - 45| = 3

The minimum angle can be found using subtraction. 45 less than 3 is 42 degrees, so the minimum angle is 42 degrees.

42 degrees is within 3 degrees of 45 degrees. If we added 45, that would get us the maximum angle.</span>

We are given the data that says that the launch angle the two girls use is <span>within 3 degrees of 45 degrees. This means, the mean is 45 degrees and there is a 3-degree separation between the mean and the maximum degree and the mean and the minimum angle. The answer then is </span><span>c. |x – 45| = 3; minimum angle: 42 degrees </span>

Graph y=2/3x-4<br><br><br><br> i need help!!!!!
Irina18 [472]

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=2/3x-4 is in Slope - intercept form meaning you are shown the slope (how steep the line is) and the y intercept (where the equation hits the vertical axis)

With the given information, select the point (0, -4) on the graph, this is where the line crosses the y axis, as shown through the -4 in the equation.

Next, look at the slope and youll see 2/3x. Slope is in format "rise over run" meaning the first number (2) is the vertical change, so up two, and the second number (3) is horizontal change, right 3.

Combine these two steps together and select point (0. -4) then the next point should be at (3,2), 2 units up and three to the right from the y intercept.
