The answer is <span>252.5 ft
</span><span>y = –0.004x</span>²<span> + x + 2.5
Let's take y = 0 and we'll get the quadratic equation:
</span>–0.004x² + x + 2.5 = 0
The general formula for quadratic equation is:
ax² + bx + c = 0
a = -0.004
b = 1
c = 2.5


Since distance cannot be negative (x1), the correct answer is x2 = 252.5 ft
Answer:
2 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use two separate fractions, one representing the amount of physics majors expected and the amount of seniors expected in physics majors by the university.

Now cross multiply.

x will be removed.

Simplifying this fraction will get you
, which in percentage form, will be 2 percent.
Answer:
