The basketball fell at rate of 9.8 feet per second

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate is the distance per unit time

Here

Given

Distance = height = h = 53.9 feet

time = t = 5.5 sec

The rate will be given as:

Rate = \frac{Height}{time} = \frac{h}{t}\\= \frac{53.9}{5.5}\\= 1.78\\

Hence,

The basketball fell at rate of 9.8 feet per second

The taxi fare in Gotham City is $2.40 for the first 1/2 mile and additional mileage charged at the rate $0.20 for each additiona
Troyanec [42]
3.3 miles should be the answer
10 = 2.40 + .2x    - take 2.4 from both sides
7.6 = .2x              - take 2 from 7.6 for the tip
5.6 = .2x              - divide both sides by .2
28 = x
this means that you can pay the taxi drives an additional 28 times with the .20 cents fee and still have 2 dollars left over       
now multiply 28 by .1 miles which is 2.8 miles
add 2.8 miles to .5 miles which equals 3.3 miles

i) The given function is

f(x)=\frac{x-5}{2x^2-5x-3}

The factored form is

f(x)=\frac{x-5}{(x-3)(2x+1)}

The domain are the values of  x for which the function is defined.

(x-3)(2x+1)\ne 0

(x-3)\ne0,(2x+1)\ne 0

x\ne3,x\ne-\frac{1}{2}

ii) To find the vertical asymptotes, equate the denominator to zero.

(x-3)(2x+1)=0

(x-3)=\ne0,(2x+1)=0

x=3,x=-\frac{1}{2}

iii) To find the roots, equate the numerator to zero.

x-5=0

The root is x=5

iv) To find the y-intercept, put x=0 into the function.

f(0)=\frac{0-5}{(0-3)(2(0)+1)}

f(0)=\frac{-5}{(-3)(1)}

f(0)=\frac{5}{3}

The y-intercept is \frac{5}{3}

v) The horizontal asymptote is given by;

lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{x-5}{2x^2-5x-3}=0

The horizontal asymptote is y=0

vi) The function is not reducible. There are no holes.

vii) The given function is a proper rational function.

Proper rational functions do not have oblique asymptotes.
