The airplane’s altitude was 400 feet at 8:00 a.m. is the best describes

the meaning of the statement h(0)=400 ⇒ answer a

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude of an airplane is described by a certain function h ,

where h(t) is the altitude in feet of the airplane t minutes after

8:00 a.m.

That means:

1. The altitude of the airplane can be calculated by using this function

at any time after 8:00 a.m.

2. At 8.00 a.m. the value of t = 0

3. h(0) is the initial altitude of the airplane

∵ The altitude of the airplane h at any time t after 8:00 a.m. can be

calculated from the function h(t)

∵ At 8:00 a.m. t = 0

∵ h(0) = 400

∴ The altitude of the airplane at t = 0 is 400

∴ The initial altitude of the airplane is 400

The airplane’s altitude was 400 feet at 8:00 a.m.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sharon is conducting research on two species of birds at a bird sanctuary.

The number of birds of species A is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

$S=2^x+12$

The number of birds of species B is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

$S=15x+35$

To plot the above function, first find points by which they are passing.

For species A, At x=0 , $S=1+12=13$

At x=2 , $S=2+12=14$

Similarly find more points and plot curve on graph.

For species A, At x=0 , $S=0+35=35$

At x=2 , $S=15+35=50$

Plot a line with the help of these two points.

Now, from the graph the intersection of curve (for A) and line (for B) is at (7,140) which tells that After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.

aliina [53]

Answer: 475 adults paid admission

Step-by-step explanation:

1.50c+4a=5050 (1.50 per child and 4 per adult)

1.50(2100)+4c=5050 (2100 children times 1.5 each)

3130+4a=5050

4a=1900

a=475

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line<br> v= -1/3x - 6

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original slope

a reciprocal is the inverse of a number, to find the reciprocal, just flip the numerator and denominator

in this cause, the slope is -1/3

the negative of it is 1/3 and the reciprocal is 3

therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is 3

Help!!!! I really need help with this I don’t understand it!!!

Temka [501]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a number of ways to get there, but the short of it is that a horizontal line has the equation ...

y = constant

The constant value must be chosen to match the y-value of points on the line. Here, that is 5. The equation of the line is ...

y = 5

_____

<em>Another way</em>

You can write the equation in slope-intercept form if you know the slope and the y-intercept. The line crosses the y-axis at y = 5, so that is the value of the y-intercept.

The "rise" between the two points is 5 -5 = 0. The "run" between the two points is 5-0 = 5, so the slope is ...

m = rise/run = 0/5 = 0

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

y = mx + b . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

y = 0x +5

Simplifying, we get ...

y = 5
