First you think how many 20 min fit in 3 hours? 180 minutes
Now you multiply 180 by $24
That would be 4,320

$216

20=$24

20*3 $24*3

60=$72

*3 *3

180=$216

(180=3 hours)

Write a quadratic function for each graph described.

user100 [1]

Answer:

$y=2x^2-\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{10}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The roots of the quadratic function (x-intercepts) are

x=-1 and x=5/3

so

we can write the equation of the parabola as

$y=a(x+1)(x-\frac{5}{3})$

where

a is a coefficient

Remember that

The parabola pass through the point (5,40)

substitute the value of x and the value of y of the ordered pair in the quadratic equation and solve for a

x=5, y=40

$40=a(5+1)(5-\frac{5}{3})$

$40=a(6)(\frac{10}{3})$

$40=20a\\a=2$

substitute

$y=2(x+1)(x-\frac{5}{3})$

apply distributive property

$y=2(x^2-\frac{5}{3}x+x-\frac{5}{3})\\\\y=2(x^2-\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{5}{3})\\\\y=2x^2-\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{10}{3}$

How to solve an expression with variables in the exponents?

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

use logarithms

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

__

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...

a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents

(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs

but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...

x +3 = b^(x -6)

There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

__

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.

In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.

The length of a rectangle is 12 units longer than the width. The perimeter is 7 times the width. Find the length and the width o

katen-ka-za [31]

Log explanation below; answer is at bottom.

If the length, l, is 12 units longer than the width, w, then w = l - 12. If the perimeter, p,

p = 2l +2w,

is 7 x w, then

w = p/7

When two things are set equal to the same variable, they are equal to each other, so,

l - 12 = p/7

Now you need to get rid of the p so you are only working with one variable. To do this you plug in whatever p is equal to for p, so,

l - 12 = (2l + 2w)/7 now to get rid of the w do the same thing we did with p just for w. So,

l - 12 = (2l + 2(l - 12))/7

To solve this you want to multiply both sides by 7 first to get rid of the fraction.

7l - 84 = 2l + 2(l - 12)

Next you want to distribute the 2 over the l and the 12.

7l - 84 = 2l + 2l - 24

Next you want to combine like terms on each side.

7l - 84 = 4l - 24

Next add 84 and subtract 4l from sides to isolate the variable.

3l = 60

Now divide each side by 11 to get your answer.

l = 20.

To find the width,

w = l - 12

Just plug in and solve.

w = 20 - 12

w = 8

So your length and width are 20 and 8.

l = 20

w = 8
