Answer:
(11/7 , 18/7)

Explanation:
The second given equation is:
y = x + 1 ............> I
The first given equation is:
y = -2.5 x + 6.5 ..............> II

Substitute with I in II and solve for x as follows:
y = -2.5 x + 6.5
x + 1 = -2.5 x + 6.5
x + 2.5 x = 6.5 - 1
3.5 x = 5.5
x = 11/7

Now, substitute with x in equation I to get y as follows:
y = x + 1
y = 11/7 + 1
y = 18/7

Hope this helps :)

A particle moves along the x-axis so that at time t ≥ 0 its position is given by x(t) = 2t3 - 21t2 + 72t - 53. At what time t is

Zepler [3.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The particle is at rest when the derivative of x(t), which is its velocity, is zero, i.e.,

$\dfrac{d}{dt}[x(t)] = \dot{x}(t) = 0$

Since $x(t) = 2t^3 - 21t^2 + 72t - 53,$ its derivative is

$\dot{x}(t) = 6t^2 - 42t + 72$

Equating this to zero, we get

$6t^2 - 42t + 72 = 0 \Rightarrow t^2 - 7t + 12 = 0$

This is a familiar quadratic equation whose roots are

$t = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$\;\;\;= \dfrac{7 \pm \sqrt{(7)^2 - 4(1)(12)}}{2}$

$\;\;\;= \dfrac{7 \pm 1}{2}$

$\;\;\;= 3\;\text{and}\;4$

This means that the particle will be at rest at t = 3 and t= 4.
