Answer:

1.05\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

Let

x -----> the amount of weight

y ----- the amount a spring will stretch

we know that

For x=80 lb, y=2.1 in

<em>Find the value of k (constant of proportionality)</em>

k=y/x

substitute the values

k=2.1/80

The linear equation is

y=(2.1/80)x

How far will it stretch when 40 pounds is attached?

For x=40 lb

substitute the value of x in the linear equation and solve for y

y=(2.1/80)(40)=1.05\ in

The regular price for a snowboard is $299.95. It is on sale for 30% off, but 5% sales tax will be applied to the sale price. Cai
rjkz [21]
So, ($299.95)(. 30) = $89.99
$299.95 - $89.99= $209.96
($209.96)(.05)=$10.50
$209.96 + $10.50 = $220.46

Write the quadratic equation in factored form. Be sure to write the entire equation. x2 - 5x - 24 = 0
Vitek1552 [10]

​x² - 5x - 24 = 0

First, we have to solve the quadratic equation and find the two values of x that fit the equation.​

x =  \frac{5+- \sqrt{5^{2} + 4*1*24 } }{2*1}  =  \frac{5+- \sqrt{25 + 96} }{2} =  \frac{5+- \sqrt{121} }{2}  =  \frac{5+-11}{2}​

There are two values of x that fit:​

x₁ = (5+11)/2 = 16/2 = 8​

x₂ = (5-11)/2 = -6/2 = -3​

Now I can restate the original equation in terms of a product of factors, with this product being equal to zero:​

(x - x₁) * (x - x₂) = 0​

ANSWER ​(x-8) * (x+3) = 0

Now I can solve each factor by setting each one equal to zero and solving the resulting linear equations:​

x - 8 = 0 or x + 3 = 0​

x = 8 or x = -3​

We can check that these two values are the solution to the original quadratic equation.​

x² - 5x - 24 = 0​

​First value

​8² -5*8 -24 = 0

64 - 40 -24 = 0​

0 = 0 ¡Checked!​

Second value​

(-3)² -5(-3) -24 = 0​

9 + 15 -24 = 0​

0 = 0 ¡Checked!​

​Hope this helps!

PLS HELP (brainliest)
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

180°

Step-by-step explanation: We are given the co-ordinates of ΔDEF as D(-1,6), E(1,3) and F(6,3).

Now, after rotation the co-ordinates of the new triangle D'E'F' are D'(1,-6), E'(-1,-3) and F'(-6,-3).

As we see that, the co-ordinates of triangle DEF are multiplied by negative sign to obtain the co-ordinates of triangle D'E'F'.

This means that, the triangle DEF is rotated 180° to form triangle D'E'F' because rotating 180 changes (x,y) to (-x,-y).

So, the rotation applied is 180° to ΔDEF.

Answer:

97.5

Step-by-step explanation:

75,85,90,105,120,150

90 and 105 are the middle, and median means the middle, but you can only have one answer.

90+105=195

195÷2=97.5

97.5 is the middle of all these numbers
