Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the x-intercept of an equation, you need to set the y value equal to 0:

-2x + 5(0) = -10

-2x =-10

x = 5

Answer:

The x-intercept is at the point (5,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 5y = -10

At the x intercept y = 0 so we substitute y = 0 into the given equation:

-2x + 5(0) = -10

-2x = -10

x = 5.

$\bf \textit{arc's length}\\\\
s=r\theta \qquad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad radians\\
------\\
r=5\\
\theta =\frac{4\pi }{7}
\end{cases}\implies s=5\cdot \cfrac{4\pi }{7}$

If your away-from-home food bill was $520 in November 2012, what was it in November 2013?

son4ous [18]

If it was the exact spending as the previous year it would be $520 but doubled would be $1,040. Since there is not enough information in the problem I can not say for certain.

The equation t^3=a^2 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun, A

ankoles [38]

Answer:

2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the relationship of interest by solving the given equation for A, the mean distance.

<h3>Solve for A</h3>

$T^3=A^2\\\\A=\sqrt{T^3}=T\sqrt{T}\qquad\text{take the square root}$

<h3>Substitute values</h3>

The mean distance of planet X is found in terms of its period to be ...

$D_x=T_x\sqrt{T_x}$

The mean distance of planet Y can be found using the given relation ...

$T_y=2T_x\\\\D_y=T_y\sqrt{T_y}=2T_x\sqrt{2T_x}=(2\sqrt{2})T_x\sqrt{T_x}\\\\D_y=2\sqrt{2}\cdot D_x$

The mean distance of planet Y is increased from that of planet X by the factor ...

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear model represents the height, f(x), of a water balloon thrown off the roof of a building over time, x, measured in seconds: A linear model with ordered pairs at 0, 60 and 2, 75 and 4, 75 and 6, 40 and 8, 20 and 10, 0 and 12, 0 and 14, 0. The x axis is labeled Time in seconds, and the y axis is labeled Height in feet. Part A: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height increasing? (2 points) Part B: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height staying the same? (2 points) Part C: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height decreasing the fastest? Use complete sentences to support your answer. (3 points) Part D: Use the constraints of the real-world situation to predict the height of the water balloon at 16 seconds.

Answer:

Part A:

Between 0 and 2 seconds, the height of the balloon increases from 60 feet to 75 feet at a rate of 7.5 ft/s

Part B:

Between 2 and 4 seconds, the height stays constant at 75 feet.

Part C:

Between 4 and 6 seconds, the height of the balloon decreases from 75 feet to 40 feet at a rate of -17.5 ft/s

Between 6 and 8 seconds, the height of the balloon decreases from 40 feet to 20 feet at a rate of -10 ft/s

Between 8 and 10 seconds, the height of the balloon decreases from 20 feet to 0 feet at a rate of -10 ft/s

Hence it fastest decreasing rate is -17.5 ft/s which is between 4 to 6 seconds.

Part D:

From 10 seconds, the balloon is at the ground (0 feet), it continues to remain at 0 feet even at 16 seconds.
