Answer:

h(3) = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify h(t) = 16t - 4t - 1 to h(t) = 12t -1

Then, plug 3 into the t

h(3) = 12*3 - 1 = 36 - 1 = 35

Answer:

h(3) = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = 16t -4t -1

h(3) = 16(3) - 4(3) - 1

h(3) = 48 - 12 - 1

h(3) = 36-1

h(3) = 35

17 = 3(4x - 5)

Distributive property.

17 = 12x - 15

Add 15 to both sides.

32 = 12x

Divide both sides by 12.

x = 2.67. (This is your answer.)

Write an equation of a parabola that passes through (3,-30) and has x-intercepts of -2 and 18. Then find the average rate of cha

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{32}{5}\cdot x -\frac{72}{5}$ . The average rate of change of the parabola is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that a parabola is represented by a quadratic function, which can be formed by knowing three different points. A quadratic function is standard form is represented by:

$y = a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c$

Where:

$x$ - Independent variable, dimensionless.

$y$ - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

$a$ , $b$ , $c$ - Coefficients, dimensionless.

If we know that $(3, -30)$ , $(-2, 0)$ and $(18, 0)$ are part of the parabola, the following linear system of equations is formed:

$9\cdot a +3\cdot b + c = -30$

$4\cdot a -2\cdot b +c = 0$

$324\cdot a +18\cdot b + c = 0$

This system can be solved both by algebraic means (substitution, elimination, equalization, determinant) and by numerical methods. The solution of the linear system is:

$a = \frac{2}{5}$ , $b = -\frac{32}{5}$ , $c = -\frac{72}{5}$ .

The equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{32}{5}\cdot x -\frac{72}{5}$ .

Now, we calculate the average rate of change ( $r$ ), dimensionless, between $x = -2$ and $x = 8$ by using the formula of secant line slope:

$r = \frac{y(8)-y(-2)}{8-(-2)}$

$r = \frac{y(8)-y(-2)}{10}$

$x = -2$

$y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot (-2)^{2}-\frac{32}{5}\cdot (-2)-\frac{72}{5}$

$y(-2) = 0$

$x = 8$

$y = \frac{2}{5}\cdot (8)^{2}-\frac{32}{5}\cdot (8)-\frac{72}{5}$

$y(8) = -40$

$r = \frac{-40-0}{10}$

$r = -4$

The average rate of change of the parabola is -4.

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the length of the side must be greater than 1 ft because the sum of two side lengths must be greater than the length of the third side. The third side must be less than 7 ft but greater than 1 ft.

Triangle inequality: 1 < x < 7

Hope that helped!
