Raj’s bathtub is clogged and is draining at a rate of 1.5 gallons of water per minute. The table shows that the amount of water remaining in the bathtub, y, is a function of the time in minutes, x, that it has been draining.

What is the range of this function?

all real numbers such that y ≤ 40

all real numbers such that y ≥ 0

all real numbers such that 0 ≤ y ≤ 40

all real numbers such that 37.75 ≤ y ≤ 40

Sean tossed a coin off a bridge into the stream below. The path of the coin can be represented by the equation 2 h tt = − 16t^2+

Answer:

It will take 5.61 seconds for the coin to reach the stream.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the coin, after t seconds, is given by the following equation:

$h(t) = -16t^{2} + 72t + 100$

How long will it take the coin to reach the stream?

The stream is the ground level.

So the coin reaches the stream when h(t) = 0.

$h(t) = -16t^{2} + 72t + 100$

$-16t^{2} + 72t + 100 = 0$

Multiplying by (-1)

$16t^{2} - 72t - 100 = 0$

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$ .

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac$

In this question:

$16t^{2} - 72t - 100 = 0$

$a = 16, b = -72, c = -100$

$\bigtriangleup = (-72)^{2} - 4*16*(-100) = 11584$

$t_{1} = \frac{-(-72) + \sqrt{11584}}{2*16} = 5.61$

$t_{2} = \frac{-(-72) - \sqrt{11584}}{2*16} = -1.11$

Time is a positive measure, so we take the positive value.

It will take 5.61 seconds for the coin to reach the stream.

Two angles are complementary. one of the angles is twice the other.the larger angle has a measure of

horrorfan [7]

Complimentary angles will add up to 90 degrees

x + y = 90
x = 2y

2y + y = 90
3y = 90
y = 90/3
y = 30......this is one angle

x = 2y
x = 2(30)
x = 60.....this is ur other angle

and ur larger angle is 60 degrees
