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.

I need help breaking this down
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2cosΘ - \sqrt{2} = 0 ( add \sqrt{2} to both sides )

2cosΘ = \sqrt{2} ( divide both sides by 2 )

cosΘ = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

Since cosΘ > 0 then Θ is in first and fourth quadrants, hence

Θ = cos^{-1} ( \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} ) = \frac{\pi }{4}

OR

Θ = 2π - \frac{\pi }{4} = \frac{7\pi }{4}

solutions are Θ = \frac{\pi }{4}, \frac{7\pi }{4}

Which interval for the graphed function contains the local maximum?
postnew [5]

The interval of the function that contains the local maximum is given by:

[0, 2].

<h3>What is the question?</h3>

The graph of the function that we want to analyze the behavior is missing. It states that:

  • The function is decreasing from negative infinity to x = -0.8.
  • Then the function increases from x = -0.8 to x = 1.55.
  • After that, the function decreases until infinity.

<h3>What is a local maximum in a function f(x)?</h3>

A local maximum in a function f(x) is a value of x at which the function changes from increasing to decreasing.

Researching this problem on the internet, and looking at the graph, the function changes from increasing to decreasing at point x = 1.55, hence the interval that contains the local maximum of the function is:

[0, 2].
