thy life. The dog weighs 126 pounds when he is put on a special diet to aid in the weight loss. The vet predicts that the diet will allow Max to lose 4 ounces per week. Max is brought to the vet every 2 weeks for a weight check. Write an equation to represent the doctor's prediction, and the relationship between Max's weight in pounds, y, and the number of times Max's weight is checked, x, in periods of two weeks. Reduce all answers to the nearest tenth of a number. a0 = a1 - a2x

Hello,

This is your equation

Y(X) = 126 - 4 × (1/16) × 2 × X


And your answer would be:

y = 126.3 - 0.3x

Hey !!!


Acc. to the Question, The equation is

Y ( x ) = 2x × 1/16 × 122

Hence the answer is

Y = 126.3-0.3 x

A 50 foot rope weighing a total of 32 lbs extended over a cliff that is 35 feet to the ground. A large 8 pound bucket with 19 ga
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

A function that gives the work required in foot-lbs to lift the bucket up x feet from the ground is W=16(50-x)+(19-\frac{x}{5})(8.3)x and  the work to get the bucket to the top of the cliff is 3726 foot-lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Work done to lift the rope by distance x feet:

W_1=32(\frac{50-x}{2})

Work done to lift the bucket by distance x feet:

W_2=(19-\frac{x}{5})(8.3)x

On reaching top 7 gallons of water spilled out so , on going up by x feet \frac{7x}{35}=\frac{x}{5} gallons of water spilled out.

a function that gives the work required in foot-lbs to lift the bucket up x feet from the ground:

W=16(50-x)+(19-\frac{x}{5})(8.3)x

Now the work to get the bucket to the top of the cliff i.e. x =35

W=16(50-35)+(19-\frac{35}{5})(8.3)(35)

W=3726

Hence, a function that gives the work required in foot-lbs to lift the bucket up x feet from the ground is W=16(50-x)+(19-\frac{x}{5})(8.3)x and  the work to get the bucket to the top of the cliff is 3726 foot-lbs

What is the factored form of x2 − 4x − 5?
laiz [17]
Factored Form:
x^2 - 4x - 5
Simplifying:
x^2 +  - 4x +  - 5 = 0

Reorder the terms:
- 5 +  - 4x + x^2 = 0

Solving for variable " x":
Subproblem 1:
Set the factor ( - 1 +  - 1x) equal to Zero and attempt to solve.

Simplifying:
- 1 +  - 1x = 0

Solving:
- 1 +  - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

Add 1 to each side of equation:
- 1 + 1 +  - 1x = 0 + 1

Combine Like Terms: 0 + 1 = 1
x =  - 1


Divide each side by - 1
x =  - 1

Simplifying:  x =  -  1


Subproblem 2: Set the factor (5 +  -  1x) equal to Zero attempt to solve

Simplifying:
5 +  - 1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add - 5 to each side of the equation
5 +  - 5  +  - 1x = 0 + 5

Combine Like terms:  5 +  - 5 = 0
0 +  - 1x = 0 +  - 5
- 1x = 0 +  - 5

Combine Like Terms: 0 +  - 5 = - 5
- 1x =  - 5

Divide each side by - 1
x = 5

Simplifying:
x = 5

Solution:
x = { - 1,  5}





Answer when factored:
(x + 1)(x - 5)
