The location of a dolphin in relation to the surface of the sea, h(x), over time, x, in seconds, for 5 seconds can be modeled by

a cubic function. Each of the following functions is a different form of the cubic model for the situation given above. Which form would be the most helpful if attempting to determine the time it takes for the dolphin to re-enter the sea after leaping out of the water? h(x) = 2x2(x - 11) + 4(17x - 12) h(x) = 2x(x2 - 11x + 34) - 48 h(x) = 2(x - 1)(x - 4)(x - 6) h(x) = 2x3 - 22x2 + 68x - 48

Answer:

The most helpful function in an attempt to determine the time it takes for the dolphin to re-enter is h(x) = 2·(x - 1)·(x - 4)·(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

For 2·x²·(x - 11) + 4·(17·x - 12)

h(5) = 2×5^2×(5 - 11) + 4×(17×5 - 12) = -8

For the function h(x) = 2·x·(x² - 11·x + 34) -48 we have;

h(5) = 2×5×(5^2 - 11×5 + 34) -48 = -8

For the function h(x) = 2·(x - 1)·(x - 4)·(x - 6) we have;

h(5) = 2×(5 - 1)×(5 - 4)×(5 - 6) = -8

For the function h(x) = 2·x³ - 22·x² + 68·x -48 we have;

h(5) = 2×5^3 - 22×5^2 + 68× 5  - 48 = -8

Given that the values of the function are all equal at x = 5, the function that will be most helpful in determining the time it takes for the dolphin to re-enter the sea after leaping out of the water is the function that is already factorized

Thereby where the value of the function h(x) at which the dolphin re-enters the the sea is h(x) = 0, we have the function h(x) = 2·(x - 1)·(x - 4)·(x - 6), readily gives the time values, x, as x = 1 second or 4 second or 6 second, therefore, the most helpful function is h(x) = 2·(x - 1)·(x - 4)·(x - 6).

Sample Response: The two conditional probabilities are not equal because each has different given events. P(A|D) has event D as
Ivan

The conditional probability illustrates that's there's a 2/8 that the event A occurs.

<h3>How to illustrate the probability?</h3>

It should be noted that probability simply means the likelihood of the occurence of an event.

In this case, it can be delivered that P(AID) and P(DIA) aren't equal.

Hence, P(D|A) has event A as its given event, resulting in 2/8 for a probability.

$10.99 CD; 25% discount
yaroslaw [1]
10.99 x .25 is $2.7475. In dollars, you would round to the nearest hundredth so 2.75 is what the discount is. The discounted price is 10.99 - 2.75 which is $8.24

This table represents the number of inches, n, a plant grows after m, months in a new pot.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: Slope = 5/4

y-intercept = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the table:

Months, m            Plant height in inches, n

0                           2

2                           4.5

4                            7

6                            9.5

We want a linear relationship to represent this table.

A linear relationship can be written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-axis intercept.

For a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope can be written as:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).

In this case we can select any pair of points, for example, i will choose the first two:

(0, 2) and (2, 4.5)

Then the slope is:

a = (4.5 - 2)/(2 - 0) = (2.5/2) = 1.25 = 5/4

Then our line can be written as:

y = (5/4)*x + b

To find the value of b, we can replace the values of any of the points in the equation, for example, i will use the point (0, 2) or x = 0, y = 2.

2 = (5/4)*0 + b

2 = b

Then our equation is:

y = (5/4)*x + 2.

Slope = 5/4

y-intercept = 2
