Number of feet in a mile multiplied by the percentage (7/11) equals number of feet in the 7/11 portion of a mile.
=5280 * 7/11
=(5280*7)/11
=36,960/11
=3,360 feet in 7/11 mile
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
5.3 s
Step-by-step explanation:
a) since the height is defined by a function, we can find the turning point of the quadratic , which is where the ball will have the highest point. The turning point is where the gradient is equal to zero so we differentiate first
Answer:
10x + 12 and 6x² + 11x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as
P = 2l + 2w ( l is length and w is width )
= 2(2x - 1) + 2(3x + 7) ← distribute parenthesis
= 4x - 2 + 6x + 14 ← collect like terms
= 10x + 12
--------------------------------------------------
The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as
A = lw
= (2x - 1)(3x + 7) ← expand using FOIL
= 6x² + 14x - 3x - 7 ← collect like terms
= 6x² + 11x - 7
E^2x -2e^x -8=0 => e<span>^(2x) -2e^x -8=0
Temporarily replace e^x with y.
Then (y)^2 - 2y - 8 = 0. Factors are (y-4) and (y+2).
Roots are y = 4 and y= -2.
Now remembering that we temporarily replaced e^x with y, we let
y=4 = e^x. We need to solve for x. Taking the natural log of both sides, we get:
ln 4 = x (answer)
We have to discard the other root (y= -2), because we cannot take the ln of a negative number.

What a delightful little problem ! (Partly because I could see
right away how to do it, and had the answer in a few minutes,
after a lot of impressive-looking algebra on my scratch-paper.)
Three consecutive integers are . . . x, x+1, and x+2
The smallest two are . . . x and x+1
Their product is . . . . . x(x+1)
5 times the largest one is . . . 5(x+2)
5 less than that is . . . . . . 5(x+2)-5
Now, the conditions of the problem say that <u>x (x + 1) = 5 (x+2) - 5</u>
THAT's the equation we have to solve, to find 'x' .
Eliminate parentheses: x² + x = 5x + 10 - 5
Combine like terms: x² + x = 5x + 5
Subtract 5x from each side: x² - 4x = 5
Subtract 5 from each side: <u>x² - 4x - 5 = 0</u>
You could solve that by factoring it, or use the quadratic equation.
Factored, it says that (x + 1) (x - 5) = 0
From which <em>x = -1</em>
and <em>x = +5</em>
We only want the positive results, so our three consecutive integers are
5, 6, and 7 .
To answer the question, the smallest one is <em><u>5 </u></em>.
<u>Check</u>:
5 x 6 ? = ? (7 x 5) - 5
30 ? = ? (35) - 5
30 = 30
yay !
