Mathematics

Slope (or gradient) is used to determine if lines are parallel, as parallel lines share the same gradient.

The gradient is used to determine whether they intersect, as you'll have to plug x and y values in to both of the line's equations, which involves having the line's gradients.

The gradient is used to see if points are collinear, as you need to determine whether the gradient between two points is equal to the gradient of another 2 points, and if so, the points are collinear.

Finally, the gradient is used to find the equation of the line, as we require to plug in the gradient in to equations such as (y - y1 = m(x - x1)) in order to find the equation of the line.

A rock is dropped from a bridge 320 feet above the river. The pathway that the rock takes can be modeled by the equation h= -16t
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The rock will take about 4.5 seconds to reach the river

Step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the situation of the rock

- The rock is dropped means the initial velocity is zero

- The motion is free fall under earth gravity

- The rock dropped from a bridge 320 feet above the river

- The equation of the pathway is h = -16t² + 320

- When the rock reach to the ground the height will be zero

* Now lets substitute h by zero in the equation to find t

∵ h = -16t² + 320

∵ h = 0

∴ 0 = -16t² + 320 ⇒ add 16t² to both sides

∴ 16t² = 320 ⇒ divide both sides by 16

∴ t² = 320/16 = 20

∴ t² = 20 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ t = √20 = 2√5 ≅ 4.5 seconds

* The rock will take about 4.5 seconds to reach the river

George tells you that when variables are in the denominator, the equation becomes unsolvable. "There is a value for x that makes
lyudmila [28]
The equation can still be solved but it should be stated clearly at what value of would the equation be undefined. For instance, you have an expression,

1/x+2

When x is equal to -2, the denominator will be 0 resulting to an undefined solution. The value of x here can be any real number except -2.

1/2in = 16 mi
2 3/4 in without whole numbers [(denominator ×whole) + numerator] / denominator
4×2 = 8 +3 = 11/4
Find common denominator for 1/2 and 11/4 (common D Is 4)
Multiply 1/2 by 2/2
2/4 in = 16 mi divide this by 2
2/4 ×1/2 = 1/4
16 /2 = 8
1/4 = 8
1/4 goes into 11/4 11 times
Multiply 8 times 11
88 miles (D)

End zone to end zone is = length so his scale is 6 in and in real life it is 360 ft
To find scale divide 360 by 6
1in = 60 ft (B)

160 ft wide
(divide 160 by 60 ft ) fraction
160/60 is a fraction now simplify
16/6
Common factors of both numbers is 2
Simplify by 2
8/3
Make into whole number fraction
3 goes into 8 two times (2×3=6)(2 becomes whole number) while there's is 2 left over( 8 -6=2) (becoming the numerator)
2 2/3 in (B)

120 ft long
80 ft wide

24 in is scale of "long"
Divide 120 by 24
120÷24=5
So 5in in scale equals 1ft in real life
To find width in scale divide 80 by 5
80/5= 16in (A)

If you have any trouble understanding feel free to let me know I will try to explain as best as I can :)

If T(n)=6n-1what is the first term
OleMash [197]
So if you find the 1st term, you should write 1 instead of n
T1 = 6.1 -1
T1= 6-1
T1= 5
Hope it helps!
