We have been given the equation

$y=-5.131x^2+31.821x-3.333$

It represents the number of people standing to catch a commuter train x hours after 5 A.M.

Now, in order to find the number of people in line at 7 a.m. , we need to substitute x= 2 in the above equation.

$y(2)=-5.131(2)^2+31.821(2x)-3.333\\y(2)= 39.785 \approx 40$

Therefore, the number of people in the line at 7 a.m. is 40

D id the correct option.

Instructions: Find the missing side of the triangle.<br> 24 and 7

ANTONII [103]

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. We already have a and b, we need to find c. 24^2 + 7^2 is 625. Then, we need to find the square root of 625 to find c. The answer is 25. x = 25.

The figures are similar. Find the missing length.

saw5 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Answer:-</h2><h3>Given ,</h3>

The figure is Similar.

Observation:-

Similar figures have similar sides. If we see carefully in smaller triangle, 3 has been added to each side and they are similar. We need to find y.

We have :-

5+3=8 as similar sides.

So, applying same algorithm,

$y + 3 = 5$

$y = 5 - 3$

$\boxed{ \tt{y = 2 \ cm}}$

is the answer.

Hope it helps :)

Chi chi can hit The golf ball 72 yards. Rory Can hit a golf ball 24 yards. How many times further can Chi chi hit a golf ball th

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Chi chi canhit a golf ball three times further than Rory.

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare the distance between the two golfers, we can set up a ratio:

$\frac{Chi chi Distance}{Rory Distance} = \frac{72}{24} =\frac{3}{1}$

Since the distance that Chi chi can hit the ball is 3:1 the distance that Rory can hit the ball, than Chi chi can hit the golf ball three times further. When reducing a ratio or fraction to lowest terms, you need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the same factor. Since 72 can be evenly divided by 24, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 24 to get 3:1.
