to get the slope of any line, all we need is two points off of it, so let's get the slope and thus its equation, hmmmm let's see points (-2,-3) and the origin are the obvious ones =)
![\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-3})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{0-(-3)}{0-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{0+3}{0+2}\implies \cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-3)=\cfrac{3}{2}[x-(-2)]\implies y+3=\cfrac{3}{2}(x+2) \\\\\\ y+3=\cfrac{3}{2}x+3\implies y=\cfrac{3}{2}x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%28%5Cstackrel%7Bx_1%7D%7B-2%7D~%2C~%5Cstackrel%7By_1%7D%7B-3%7D%29%5Cqquad%20%28%5Cstackrel%7Bx_2%7D%7B0%7D~%2C~%5Cstackrel%7By_2%7D%7B0%7D%29%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20slope%20%3D%20m%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B%5Cstackrel%7Brise%7D%7B%20y_2-%20y_1%7D%7D%7B%5Cstackrel%7Brun%7D%7B%20x_2-%20x_1%7D%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B0-%28-3%29%7D%7B0-%28-2%29%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B0%2B3%7D%7B0%2B2%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7B%7Cc%7Cll%7D%20%5Ccline%7B1-1%7D%20%5Ctextit%7Bpoint-slope%20form%7D%5C%5C%20%5Ccline%7B1-1%7D%20%5C%5C%20y-y_1%3Dm%28x-x_1%29%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Ccline%7B1-1%7D%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cimplies%20y-%28-3%29%3D%5Ccfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%5Bx-%28-2%29%5D%5Cimplies%20y%2B3%3D%5Ccfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%28x%2B2%29%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20y%2B3%3D%5Ccfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7Dx%2B3%5Cimplies%20y%3D%5Ccfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7Dx)
There's missing information. What does f(x) approach as x approaches negative infinity and infinity?
Answer:
the answer is 14.7 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
i just guessed and i got it right the first try so..
The time of takeoff of this hovercraft would be 0 seconds, as if you were starting a timer. So, if you plug in 0 for x (unit for seconds) in your equation, it will look like this:
h(0) = -3(0 - 3)² + 108
Parenthesis first
h(0) = -3(-3)² + 108
Exponents next
h(0) = -3(9) + 108
Multiplication
h(0) = -27 + 108
Combine like terms
h(0) = 81: The height of the hovercraft at the time of takeoff is 81 meters!
Hope this helps :)
