try this answer good luck

Answer:

Answer:<u>  1/2 </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Figure B is a scaled copy of Figure A.

We know that the scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding sides of two similar figures.

From , the graph we assume that that one point = one unit of length.

Then, the dimension of one side of figure A = 4 units and the  dimension of  corresponding side of Figure B = 2.

Then, the scale factor is given by:

k = 2/4 = 1/2

Hence, the  scale factor is <u>1/2</u>

The wind force f on a sail varies jointly as the area a of the sail and the square of the wind speed w.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

  122.5 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between force, wind speed, and area can be written ...

  f = ks²a

for some wind speed s and area a.

__

The constant of proportionality, k, can be found from the given data.

  64.8 = k(18²)(500) . . . force in pounds, area in square feet, speed in mph

  k = 64.8/(324×500) = 0.0004

__

Using the equation with the second set of data, we have ...

  f = 0.0004(35²)(250) = 122.5 . . . . pounds

The force on the 250 square foot sail would be 122.5 pounds.

Which piecewise function is shown in the graph?
mash [69]

Based on the characteristics of <em>linear</em> and <em>piecewise</em> functions, the <em>piecewise</em> function f(x) = \left \{ {{-0.5\cdot x +1, \,x < 0} \atop {2\cdot x - 2, \,x \ge 0}} \right. is shown in the graph attached herein. (Correct choice: A)

<h3>How to determine a piecewise function</h3>

In this question we have a graph formed by two different <em>linear</em> functions. <em>Linear</em> functions are polynomials with grade 1 and which are described by the following formula:

y = m · x + b     (1)

Where:

  • x - Independent variable.
  • y - Dependent variable.
  • m - Slope
  • b - Intercept

By direct observation and by applying (1) we have the following <em>piecewise</em> function:

f(x) = \left \{ {{-0.5\cdot x +1, \,x < 0} \atop {2\cdot x - 2, \,x \ge 0}} \right.

Based on the characteristics of <em>linear</em> and <em>piecewise</em> functions, the <em>piecewise</em> function f(x) = \left \{ {{-0.5\cdot x +1, \,x < 0} \atop {2\cdot x - 2, \,x \ge 0}} \right. is shown in the graph attached herein. (Correct choice: A)

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The equation of the quadratic graph is f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3 (second option)

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus: F=(3,1)=(xf, yf)→xf=3, yf=1

Directrix: y=5 (horizontal line), then the axis of the parabola is vertical, and the equation has the form:

f(x)=[1 / (4p)] (x-h)^2+k

where Vertex: V=(h,k)

The directix y=5 must intercept the axis of the parabola at the point (3,5), and the vertex is the midpoint between this point and the focus:

Vertex is the midpoint between (3,5) and (3,1):

h=(3+3)/2→h=6/2→h=3

k=(5+1)/2→k=6/2→k=3

Vertex: V=(h,k)→V=(3,3)

p=yf-k→p=1-3→p=-2

Replacing the values in the equation:

f(x)= [ 1 / (4(-2)) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)=[ 1 / (-8) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3

The Marked price of a jacket at a dealer's shop is 2400. The dealer allows a discount of 15% to the retailer. As the company's p
Andrej [43]

Answer:

2400

2640

360

Step-by-step explanation:

the retailer has to sell it for the same price as the dealer.

so, both mark it for 2400 sale price.

if a customer buys it at the retailer, the retailer makes the 15% discount he got from the dealer as profit.

2400 = 100%

1% = 2400/100 = 24

15% = 24×15 = 360

the retailer makes this profit no matter what other fees or taxes are added.

the final price is then including 10% VAT

2400 = 100%

10% = 24×10 = 240

final price = SP + VAT = 2400 + 240 = 2640
