Mathematics
1 answer:
riadik2000 [5.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

y = -0.2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a linear function, calculate the rate of change of the gallon of water leaving the tank and the starting level.

The function will describe the number of gallons over time or (time, gallons).

This means the function has data points (1, 7.8) and (9, 6.2).

Use the rate of change or slope formula to calculate it.

m = \frac{7.8 - 6.2}{1 - 9} =\frac{1.6}{-8} = -0.2

This means that for the formula y = mx+b then m = -0.2.

This also means that after losing 0.2 gallons the first hour it was at 7.8. So the starting value is 8 gallons.

The equation is y = -0.2 x + 8.

Jordan was asked to convert 345,000,000 to scientific notation. His response was 34.5*10^7. His teacher told him he was incorrec
mel-nik [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

The scientific notation of any number is given by :

N=a\times 10^b

a is any real no and b is any integer

The scientific notation of 345,000,000 should be 3.45\times 10^8 but Jorden wrote 34.5×10⁷. He is incorrect. He should have shifted decimal before 4 such that power of 10 becomes 8.

A small resort is situated on an island that lies exactly 3 miles from P, the nearest point to the island along a perfectly stra
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The distance from the  shoreline from P the pipe from the island will reach land in order to minimize the total construction cost is 0 m, or the pipe should be routed to the point P

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that, cost to lay pipe in water = 2.3 × cost to lay pipe on land

Distance of the small resort on the island from point p on the shoreline = 3 miles

Location of the closest source of fresh water is 10 miles along the shoreline from p

∴ The small resort, the point p and the closest source of the fresh water on the shoreline together form a right triangle with sides

Height = 3 miles

Base = 10 miles and

Hypotenuse = \sqrt{3^2 + 10 ^2} = \sqrt{109} =  10.44 \, m

To find the cost of laying the pipeline by the various route, we multiply the water routes by 2.3 and the land routes by 1 and we get

Costs:

Height =  Water route = 2.3 × 3 miles = 6.9

Base = Land route = 1 × 10 miles = 10

Hypotenuse = Water route = 2.3 × 10.44 miles = 24.012

Therefore, the two routes are either

10 miles to point p and 3 miles across the water to the resort with a cost = 10 + 6.9 = 16.9 or

Directly to the small resort through 10.44 miles across the water with cost = 24.012

Therefore, to minimize cost, the pipe should come from the resort to P from there to the fresh water source.

That is the distance from the  shoreline from P the pipe from the island will reach land in order to minimize the total construction cost = 0 m.

Find the area please
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:

\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2} bh

In this case, the base is <em>x</em> and the height is <em>y</em>. Hence:

\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2} xy

We can write the following ratios:

\displaystyle \sin \alpha = \frac{x}{12} \text{ and } \cos \alpha = \frac{y}{12}

Solve for <em>x</em> and <em>y</em>:

\displaystyle x = 12\sin \alpha \text{ and } y = 12\cos \alpha

Substitute:

\displaystyle A = \frac{1}{2}\left(12\sin \alpha\right)\left(12\cos \alpha\right)

And simplify. Hence:

\displaystyle A = 72\sin \alpha \cos\alpha

In conclusion, our answer is D.

wel

Answer:

x=2 or x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^4 - 5x^3 + 7x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0

Step 1=Factor left side of equation.

(x-2) (x-3) (x^2 + 1) = 0

Step 2=Set factors equal to 0.

x-2 = 0 or x-3 = 0 or x^2 + 1 = 0.

Answer:x=2 or x=3
