In country​ A, the number of highway bridges for the years 2000 to 2005 can be modeled by the equation y=149(x+1.5)^2+489,505, w

here x=0 represents the year 2000. Assume that this trend continued and find the year in which there were 505,000 highway bridges in country A.

Given that the number of bridges has been modeled by the function:
<span>y=149(x+1.5)^2+489,505
To find the year in which, y=505000 we shall proceed as follows:
From:
</span>y=149(x+1.5)^2+489,505
substituting y=505000 we shall have:
505000=149(x+1.5)^2+489,505
simplifying the above we get:
0=149(x+1.5)^2-15495
expanding the above we get:
0=149x^2+447x+335.25-15495
simplifying
0=149x^2+447x-15159.8
solving the quadratic equation by quadratic formula we get:
x~8.69771 or x~-11.6977
hence we take positve number:
x~8.69771~8.7 years~9 years
thus the year in which the number will be 505000 will be:
2000+9=2009

A number sentence is shown below:
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Number sentence is simply a sentence, that uses numbers and arithmetic signs.

  • The context that can be created from the sentence is: <em>How many bits are there, in </em>32\frac 14 bytes
  • The verbal meaning of 32\frac 14 \div \frac 18 = 258 is:  <em>When </em>32\frac 14<em> is divided by </em>\frac 18<em>, the result is </em>258<em />

<em />

Given

32\frac 14 \div \frac 18 = 258

<u />

<u>(a) Context or story</u>

A context is as follows:

<em>There are 8 bits in a byte; How many bits are there, in </em>32\frac 14 bytes

<u />

<u>(b) As a multiplication</u>

32\frac 14 \div \frac 18 = 258

Change the <em>division to multiplication </em>as follows:

32\frac 14 \times \frac 81 = 258

<u />

<u>(c) Verbal explanation how the numbers are related</u>

When 32\frac 14 is divided by \frac 18, the result is 258

Triangle ABC has vertices A(-2, 3), B(0, 3), and C(-1,-1). Find the coordinates of the image after a reflection over the
motikmotik

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the triangle ABC has vertices A(-2,3), B(0,3) and C(-1,-1).

We need to determine the coordinates of the image after a reflection over the x - axis.

Let A'B'C' denote the coordinates of the triangle after a reflection over the x - axis.

<u>Coordinates of the point A':</u>

The general rule to reflect the coordinate across the x - axis is given by

(x,y)\rightarrow (x,-y)

Substituting the point A(-2,3), we get;

(-2,3)\rightarrow (-2,-3)

Thus, the coordinates of the point A' is (-2,-3)

<u>Coordinates of the point B':</u>

The general rule to reflect the coordinate across the x - axis is given by

(x,y)\rightarrow (x,-y)

Substituting the point B(0,3), we get;

(0,3)\rightarrow (0,-3)

Thus, the coordinates of the point B' is (0,-3)

<u>Coordinates of the point C':</u>

The general rule to reflect the coordinate across the x - axis is given by

(x,y)\rightarrow (x,-y)

Substituting the point C(-1,-1), we get;

(-1,-1)\rightarrow (-1,1)

Thus, the coordinates of the point C' is (-1,1)

Hence, the coordinates of the image after a reflection over the x - axis is A'(-2,-3), B(0,-3) and C(-1,1)
