Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint

two points
cost=y
(4,5.5) and (7,7.75)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(7.75-5.5)/(7-4)=2.25/3=0.75

y=0.75x+b
find b
(4,5.5)
x=4
y=5.5
5.5=0.75(4)+b
5.5=3+b
minus 3 fromboth sides
2.5=b

y=0.75x+2.5
3 hours
y=0.75(3)+2.5
y=2.25+2.5
y=4.75

answer is D

Slope = (7.75 - 5.50)/(7 - 4) = 2.25/3 = 0.75
The equation described by the function is
y - 5.5 = 0.75(x - 4)
y = 0.75x - 3 + 5.5 = 0.75x + 2.5
For x = 3, y = 0.75(3) + 2.5 = 2.25 + 2.5 = 4.75
Therefore, it costs $4.75 to park for 3 hours.

Solve 5y'' + 3y' – 2y = 0, y(0) = 0, y'(O) = 2.8 y(t) =( Preview
Karolina [17]

Answer:

y=\frac{4}{5}e^{t}-\frac{4}{5}e^{-\frac{2}{5}t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation 5y'' + 3y' - 2y =0 can be written as

(5D^{2}+3D-2)y(t)=0

Solving for complementary function we have Roots of (5D^{2}+3D-2) as follows

(5D^{2}+5D-2D-2)

5D(D+1)-2(D+1)=0\\\\(5D-2)(D+1)=0\\\\\therefore D=-1\\D=+2/5

Thus the complementary function becomes

y=y=c_{1}e^{m_{1}t}+c_{2}e^{m_{2}t}

where

m_{1},m_{2} are calculated roots

thus solution becomes

y=c_{1}e^{-t}+c_{2}e^{\frac{2}{5}t}

Now to solve for the coefficients we use the given boundary conditions

y(0)=0\\\\\therefore c_{1}+c_{2}=0\\\\y'(0)=-c_{1}+\frac{2}{5}c_{2}=2.8\\\\\therefore c_{2}+\frac{2}{5}c_{2}=2.8\\\\c_{2}=2\\\\\therefore c_{1}=-2}

hence the solution becomes

y=-2e^-{t}+2e^{\frac{2}{5}t}
