Answer: d. the radius of the Ferris wheel

Step-by-step explanation:

We now that the amplitude is the vertical distance between a peak or a valley and the equilibrium point.

Thus in the case of Ferris wheel the amplitude should be the difference between the peak(highest) and equilibrium point or equillibrium point and valley(lowest) points .

i.e. it should be half of the diameter of the circle. Since half of diameter of a circle is equals to radius.

Therefore, the amplitude of the function you use as a model should be equal to the radius of the Ferris wheel.

The amplitude of the function you use as a model should be equal to <span>d. the radius of the Ferris wheel. The amplitude should be half the difference between the highest (maximum) and lowest (minimum) points which is half of the diameter of the circle. It is known that half of the diameter is the radius of a circle.</span>

Solve the system of equations.<br> y=x+2<br> 4x-4y= 1
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 4x - 4y = 1
  2. 4x - 4(x + 2) = 1
  3. 4x - 4x - 8 = 1
  4. - 8 = 1

Our end result is -8 = 1. This is not true, so this system of equations have no solution.

Today the price of a new cell phone is $129 in 2000 the price of a similar cell phone was $240 what is the percent of the change
netineya [11]

Answer:

46.25% is the percent of the change in the price of a cell phone from 2000 to today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a cell phone in the year of 2000. C= $240

Cost of a same cell phone today, C'= $129

The percent of the change in price:

\frac{C-C'}{C}\times 100:

\frac{\$240-\$129}{\$240}\times 100=46.25\%

46.25% is the percentage of the change in the price of a cell phone from 2000 to today.
