A bucket that contains several inches of water is left outside on a rainy day. The height of the water in the bucket that day is

given by the function equation H = 4 + 0.5t, where H is the height of the water and t is the time in hours the bucket sits out in the rain.
What is the meaning of the vertical intercept in this equation?



A.


The bucket originally contained 0.5 in. of water.


B.


The bucket originally contained 4 in. of water.


C.


The bucket fills at a rate of 0.5 in./h.


D.

The verticall intercept is the value of H when t=0. It's 4 in this equation. It's that "several inches" of water that were in the bucket when the rain was ready to start.

First you can cross out A and D because those are the obvious wrong answers. the answer would be B because the vertical intercept is the y-intercept and 4 was added to the slope. if a number is added to the slope that number will be the vertical intercept.

andreev551 [17]
The possible digits are: 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. Let's mark the case when the locker code begins with a prime number as A and the case when <span>the locker code is an odd number as B. We have 5 different digits in total, 2 of which are prime (5 and 7).

First propability:
</span>P_A=\frac{2}{5}=40\%
<span>
By knowing that digits don't repeat we can say that code is an odd number in case it ends with 5, 7 or 9 (three of five digits).

Second probability:
</span>P_B=\frac{3}{5}=60\%

4x/5 - 3x/7 = 4x/7 + 5x/7 can anyone please help with explanation...​
kirill115 [55]

Answer: x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 35, the least common multiple of 5,7.

7×4x−5×3x=5×4x+5×5x

Multiply 7 and 4 to get 28.

28x−5×3x=5×4x+5×5x

Multiply −5 and 3 to get −15.

28x−15x=5×4x+5×5x

Combine 28x and −15x to get 13x.

13x=20x+25x

Combine 20x and 25x to get 45x.

13x=45x

Subtract 45x from both sides

13x−45x=0

Combine 13x and −45x to get −32x

−32x=0

Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since −32 is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.

X=0

Help.... and thanks
Archy [21]

Answer:

π

Step-by-step explanation:

The *period* of a function is the length it takes before it repeats. Usually, the period of the sine function is 2π; it takes a full rotation around the unit circle for it to repeat. When we replace the input x with -2x, this does a few things:

- Changes the rotation direction

- Makes the rotation go twice as fast

If we rotate around the unit circle twice as fast, it’ll take us half of 2π, or just π to complete a cycle.

Write an equation of the line passing through the points (3,8) and (-2,-22)
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

y=6x+8 or y=6x-22

Step-by-step explanation:

use the equation y=mx+b

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

to find the slope use the equation m = y2-y1 over x2-x1

-22 - 8 / -2 - 3 = -30 / -5 = 6

6 is your slope and for the y-intercept you can choose whichever y-intercept to put into the equation.
