Number decreased by 30% of itself is 28 
<span>x - .30x = 28 </span>
<span>.70x = 28 </span>
<span>x = 28/.70 = 40 </span>

<span>40 minus 30% of itself is 40 - 12 which does = 28.</span>

13. Find the vertex of f(x)=x2 -6x +8 .
Mekhanik [1.2K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a  (3,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that "completes the square" is the square of half the x-coefficient, (-6/2)^2 = 9. Rearranging the given function to include the square trinomial, we have ...

  f(x) = x^2 -6x +9 -1 . . . . . . . here, we have 8 = 9 - 1

  f(x) = (x -3)^2 -1 . . . . . . . . . . vertex form

Comparing this to the generic vertex form ...

  f(x) = (x -h)^2 +k . . . . . . . vertex at (h, k)

we see that h=3 and k=-1.

The vertex is (h, k) = (3, -1).

Harry Potter decides it’s too cold for him to stay in Hogwarts and wants to fly straight south. He is not sure where to point hi
GrogVix [38]

Harry Potter decides it’s too cold for him to stay in Hogwarts and wants to fly straight south, the heading he should have and the velocity of the broom with respect to the ground are mathematically given as

VR = 20, 699 m/s South

<h3>What is the heading he should have and the velocity of the broom with respect to the ground?</h3>

Divide horizontal and vertical components of Vs and Vw vectors

For Vs

Vs = Vs cos∅ [s] + Vs Sin∅ [w]

Vs = 18 Co58 [s] + 18 sin∅ [w]

For Vw

Vw = Vw Cos 55' [s] + Vw Sin 55 [E]

5.8333 x Cos 55 (s) + 5-8333 Sin 55 [E]

Vw = 3.3458 [s] + 4.7783 [E]

Resultant velocity VR = Vs + Vw

VR= 18 Coso (s) + 18 sine [w] +3.3458 (5) +42783 (E)

VR = (186030 +3.3458) [5] + (18sing - 4.7183)6]

(Harry Potter) flies south

18sin∅ - 4.7783 18=0

Hence

Sin∅ = 4.7783 18/18

∅ =sin{-1}(4.7783 18/18)

∅  = 15.3943

Harry Potter flies in the direction south to ∅ = $15.3943w]

Hence  velocity

VR = (18 cos∅   + 35452) s + 0

VR = (17.3541 +3-3458) s

VR = 20, 69999 m/s South
