Elevator 1 in an office building moved from ground position to a final position of +12 feet. Elevator 2 in the same building mov

ed from ground to a final position of −15 feet. Which statement best describes the final positions of these two elevators? Elevator 1 is 12 feet above ground level, and Elevator 2 is 15 feet below the position of Elevator 1. Elevator 1 is 12 feet below ground level, and Elevator 2 is 15 feet above the position of Elevator 1. Elevator 1 is 12 feet above ground level, and Elevator 2 is 15 feet below ground level.

Answer:

<h2>C. Elevator 1 is 12 feet above ground level and Elevator 2 is 15 feet below ground level.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break this down step-by-step

<h3>Step 1: Find Position of Elevator 1</h3>

This is just a simple addition problem

0 + 12 = 12

Elevator 1 is 12 feet above ground level

<h3>Step 2: Find Position of Elevator 2</h3>

This time, we use subtraction, since it is -15 feet

0 - 15 = -15

Elevator 2 is 15 feet below ground level

<h3>Step 3: Find the best statement</h3>

C. Elevator 1 is 12 feet above ground level and Elevator 2 is 15 feet below ground level.

I'm always happy to help :)

Write the equation of the line passing through the points (-4,7) and (4,5).
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{4}x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope: \frac{5-7}{4-(-4)} --> \frac{5-7}{4+4} --> \frac{-2}{8} --> -\frac{1}{4}

Insert into the point-slope form: (y-7)=-\frac{1}{4}(x+4)

Solve: y-7=-\frac{1}{4}x-1 --> y=-\frac{1}{4}+6

sarah buys a caravan the cost of the caravan is 15600 plus 20% vat she pays a 5000 deposit and the rest over 10 payments how muc
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

£1372

Step-by-step explanation

20% vat:

  • 20% of 15,600 is 3120
  • 3120+15,600= 18720

so if she paid a deposit of 5000 she would have a remaining amount of 13,720 in total

13720 divided by 10 equals 1372 so her 10 payments would be £1372

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. The table below represents the function f, and the following graph represent
Lorico [155]
<h3>Answers:</h3>

The functions f and g have <u>same axis of symmetry</u>

The y intercept of f is <u>greater than</u> the y intercept of g.

Over the interval [-6,-3], the average rate of change of f is <u>less than</u> the average rate of change of g.

===========================================

Explanation:

Check out the diagram below.

Using the table, plot each (x,y) point onto the same xy grid the blue parabola is graphed on. This way we can compare the two graphs. I'll show these points in red. The red parabola passing through them represents all of f(x) assuming it is continuous.

When we have f(x) and g(x) plotted together, we see that they have the same axis of symmetry. Points D = (-3,-10) and K = (-3,7) have the same x coordinate. The axis of symmetry for each is x = -3.

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

Furthermore, the graph shows that the y intercept of f is above the y intercept of g. Look where the graphs cross the y axis. So The y intercept of f is greater than the y intercept of g

We could note that from the table, the y intercept of f is (0,8) as the y intercept always happens when x = 0.

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

Last part is the average rate of change (AROC)

AROC is the same as the slope of the line through the endpoints mentioned. The interval [-6, -3] means we go from x = -6 to x = -3. Those x values determine the endpoints.

For f(x), this means we find the slope of the line through (-6,8) and (-3,-10). Use the slope formula to get

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-10-8)/(-3-(-6))

m = (-10-8)/(-3+6)

m = -18/3

m = -6 ... negative slope goes downhill as we move from left to right

The AROC for f, on the mentioned interval, is -6

The AROC for g is done in a similar manner. We use the two points J = (-6,-2) and L = (-3,7) as the diagram shows. The slope of line JL is

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (7-(-2))/(-3-(-6))

m = (7+2)/(-3+6)

m = 9/3

m = 3 ... positive slope goes uphill as we move from left to right

We get a different AROC here. More specifically, this is a larger AROC compared to what we got for f. So the AROC for f is smaller than the AROC for g.
