1. A parachutist is 800 feet above the ground when she opens her parachute. She then falls at a constant rate of 5 feet per seco

nd. Select the equation that represents this situation. h = -800t + 5 y = -5x + 800 h = 5t - 800 y = 800x + 5

Answer:

h = -5*t +800

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value is 800 ft

She is falling at a rate of 5 ft per second

That would be -5ft/s

We can write this in the form

y = mx+b

h = -5*t +800  where t is the number of seconds and h is the height above ground

Please find which quadratic equation matches the graph with work attached
lesya [120]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we know that the function must be negative due to its shape. This means that the answer cannot be B

Next we can use the equation x=\frac{-b}{2a} that is used in order to find the vertex of the parabola.

A)

f(x)=-x^2+6x+7\\a=-1,b=6,c=7\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\x=3

As the vertex is at x=3 on the graph, this one could be a contender.

C)

f(x)=-x^2+6x-7\\a=-1,b=6, c=-7\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\\\x=3

This also could be the equation

D)

f(x)=-x^2-6x-7\\\\a=-1, b=-6, c=-7\\\\x=\frac{6}{-2} \\\\x=-3

This rules option D out.

For this last step, we can look at where the zeroes would be for each equation. (These values are irrational, so we cannot look at specific number)

A)

f(x)=-(x^2-6x-7)

As this equation has a negative value for c, this means that one zero must be positive and the other must be negative.

This means that option A can be ruled out

C)

f(x)=-(x^2-6x+7)

As this equation has a positive value for c, this means that both of the zeroes must be positive. This means that it is the only one that fits all of the criteria.

Given f(x) shown below complete the equation for the inverse of f(x) = x-1
shtirl [24]
Replace f(x) with y
switch x and y
solve for y
replace y with f⁻¹(x)

f(x)=x-1
y=x-1
x=y-1
x+1=y
x+1=f⁻¹(x)
f⁻¹(x)=x+1
