The path of a roller coaster over a particular length of track can be represented by a quadratic function f, where f(x) represen

ts the vertical displacement above or below a support bar (in meters), and x represents the horizontal displacement to the left or right of a flagpole (in meters). The roller coaster dips below the support bar for values of x between -2 and 1. Which function could represent f?
A. f(x)=(x-2)^2+1

B. f(x)=(x+2)^2+1

C. f(x)=(x-2)(x+1)

D. f(x)= (x+2)(x-1)

The roller coaster could be represented by the function for Choice D.

If you were to graph this function, you would find that the zeros (x-intercepts) of the function are at the points of -2 and 1. Those are the needed points in the problem.

Since this is a parabola that opens upward, the parabola must be below the axis (or support bar) between those values.

Just help, what are the answer, Its due in 15 minutes and yea, ill mark brainliest and dont give me a link saying the answer is
Naddik [55]

Answer:

<h2><u><em>6. </em></u></h2><h2><u><em>   a. 11 and 2/3 yds. squared</em></u></h2><h2 /><h2><u><em>   b. Yes, the volume of the shed is 11 and 1/3 yards squared and what she's trying to put into it is only 10 yards squared, if put in properly, it will be able to fit.</em></u></h2><h2 /><h2><u><em>7. 1,110 in. squared</em></u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

6.

a.

(10/3)*(14/9)*(9/4)

= 11 2/3

b.

Yes, because the volume of the shed is about 11.67 yards long, the 10 yards of wood will fit in the shed.

7.

For this one, we have to break it into two pieces.

(I made them into a small box and and big box)

The measurements of the small box are 7*5*6.

The measurements of the big box are 20*5*9.

Using this information, we can make the following equation and solve it quickly.

(7*5*6) + (20*5*9)

(210) + (900)

1,110

Thus, the volume of this box is 1,110 in. ^2

A particle moves along the curve y = 5x^2 – 1 in such a way that the y value is decreasing at the rate of 2 units per second. At
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Increasing one fifth unit/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that gives the curve of the particle of the particle is y = 5·x² - 1

The rate of decrease of the y value dy/dt = 2 units per second

We have;

dy/dx = dy/dt × dt/dx

dy/dx = 10·x

dy/dt = 2 units/sec

dt/dx = (dy/dx)/(dy/dt)

dx/dt = dy/dt/(dy/dx) = 2 unit/sec/(10·x)

When x = 1

dx/dt = 2/(10·x) = 2 unit/sec/(10 × 1) = 1/5 unit/sec

dx/dt = 1/5 unit/sec

Therefore, x is increasing one fifth unit/sec.
