In your lab, a substance's temperature has been observed to follow the function T(x) = (x + 5)3 + 7. The turning point of the gr

aph is where the substance changes from a liquid to a solid. Using complete sentences in your written answer, explain to your fellow scientists how to find the turning point of this function. Hint: The turning point of the graph is similar to the vertex of a quadratic function.

So essentially, this is a cubic function where T(x) = y, and:
y =  {(x+5)}^{3} +7
In order to find the vertices, aka "turning points", we need to see around what area the graph will curve quickly from bottom-left to top-right. If the value being cubed (in the parentheses) is around -8, y will be close to 0, since -8+7=-1. (-2)^3 = -8. So x+5=-2, x=-7.
At x=-6, y = (-6+5)^3+7 = (-1)^3+7
y = -1+7 = 6
At x=-5, y = 0+7 = 7
Above x=-4, the y jumps rapidly above 10, and below x=-9, the y jumps rapidly below -50
What does all that mean???
That between x = -9 and x = -4 (x = -4,-5,-6,-7,-8,-9), the temperature (T(x) or y) does not change very much. Therefore, around those temperatures is a turning point, where the phase shift occurs from solid/liquid.

Solve for m<c. (Enter your answer as a whole mumber)​
kupik [55]

2y + 4 + x = 90

2y + 4 + 3y + x = 180

5y + x + 4 = 180

x = 176 - 5y

2y + 4 + (176 - 5y) = 90

-3y + 180 = 90

-3y = -90

y = 30

x = 176 - 5(30)

x = 26 degrees

Hope this helps! :)

X: y = 1:5 Which is the correct equation? A y = 5x By= C y=x-4 D y=x+4
Ymorist [56]
The answer should be A. For example, if x = 1, and the ratio between x and y is y is 5 times greater than x, then y would equal 5, which is only true in A.

Or, use the number 5 as an example. If x = 5, and the ratio between x and y is y is 5 times greater than x, then y is 5.

And if you put that into A, y = 5x, it becomes 25 = 5(5)
Then 25 = 25, which is true!

Marcus is building a fence around his rectangular backyard. The length of his backyard is 75 3/4 ft, and the width is 81 1/4 ft.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

4,923.75ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the backyard = Length * width \

Area of the backyard = 75 3/4 * 81 1/4

Area of the backyard = 303/4 * 325/4

Area of the backyard = 6,154.6875ft²

If 3/4 of the fence is finished, the area of the finished part is expressed as;

Finished part = 1/5 * 6,154.6875

Finished part = 1,230.9375ft²

Part left unfinished = 6,154.6875-1,230.9375

Part left unfinished  = 4,923.75ft²
