The coefficient is 6

This is the number just to the left of the variable y. The coefficient is some known fixed number that we multiply with a variable. Other examples would be 2x having a coefficient of 2, the term 7z having a coefficient of 7, and 2.3w having a coefficient of 2.3

What are the zeros in the function f(x)=(2x+6)(x-4)
Shtirlitz [24]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = -3, 4

Discussion:

The zeroes of f(x) are the x values where

2x + 6 = 0   =>  x = -3

and

x - 4 = 0   => x = 4

Thank you,

MrB

A group of employees is stranded on top of a 120 feet building because a fire occurred. Your goal is to throw a rope from a 60 f
Paul [167]

Step-by-step explanation:

-16t² + 64t + 60 = 120

this is a quadratic equation, and its points of f(t) = 0 can be calculated. there are usual 2 such solutions for a quadratic equation.

so, we need to bring it to a form that ends in "= 0".

-16t² + 64t - 60 = 0

that is also the same as

-4t² + 16t - 15 = 0

the formula for the solutions of such a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a = -4

b = 16

c = -15

so,

t = (-16 ± sqrt(256 - 4×-4×-15))/(2×-4) =

= (-16 ± sqrt(256 - 240))/-8 =

= (-16 ± sqrt(16))/-8 = (-16 ± 4)/-8

t1 = (-16 + 4)/-8 = -12/-8 = 3/2

t2 = (-16 - 4)/-8 = -20/-8 = 5/2

so, it depends on what the unit of time t is. let's assume seconds.

therefore, the rope will reach the top of the building while going up after 3/2 = 1 1/2 = 1.5 seconds.

and then, as the shot rope makes a curve and comes back down again (that is why we have 2 solutions : the rope will reach the height of 120ft during its flight path twice : once while still going up, and once when coming back down again) it will be at the height of the top of the building after 5/2 = 2 1/2 = 2.5 seconds.

so, it depends if the people there can grab it at the first chance, and if the path of the rope would allow them to grab it also again on its way back down. this we don't know.

I therefore guess, that your teacher is aiming for the first solution.

12) I can run 3.6 miles in 30<br> minutes. How far can I run in<br> 1.5 hours?
raketka [301]
1.5 hours=90 minutes

Because 90 minutes/ 30 minutes is 3, multiply 3.6 miles by 3 and get 10.8 miles as your final answer

What is the equation of a line through point (-4,5) that is perpendicular
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

set two equation of line y=ax+b and y=cx+d

when these two lines are perpendicular to each other, then a*c=(-1)

set answer is y=ax+b

we can know that a=1/6

bring in a=1/6 and(-4,5)

5=(1/6)*(-4)+b

=>5=(-2/3)=b

=>b=5 2/3

answer is y=(1/6)x+5 2/3
