When the car is moving, it has Kinetic Energy. As soon as the car entercount with the spring, its Kinetic Energy will transfer to Elastic Potential Energy. 

<span>KE = EPE </span>
<span>1/2mv^2 = 1/2kx^2 </span>

<span>change the speed into m/s </span>
<span>50 km/hr = 13.9 m/s </span>

<span>1/2(1200)(13.9)^2 = 1/2k(2.2)^2 </span>

<span>now you do the math to solve for k.
k= 115926/2.42
K= 47903.30</span>

What is the value of discontinuity of x^2+8x+4/x^2-x-6? Choices:
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

First of all, let's check the denominator.

x^2-x-6 \ \ \text{ *** How to factorise it ...? ***}\\\\\text{*** The product of the roots is -6=-2*3 and their sum is 1 ***}\\\\x^2-x-6=x^2-3x+2x-6=x(x-3)+2(x-3)=(x+2)(x-3)

Now, let's see the numerator.

x^2+8x+4 \ \text{ *** -2 is not a zero as ***}\\\\(-2)^2+8*(-2)+4=4-16+8=-4\\\\\text{*** 3 is not a zero as ***}\\\\3^2+8*3+4=9+24+4=37\\

So we cannot factorise the numerator with (x+2) or (x-3)

Then, -2 and 3 are the the discontinuities of the expression.

There is only -2 in the list, this is the correct answer.

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

What is the vertex of y=-6(2.5-x)(x-5.5)?
Alex787 [66]
Hello : 

<span> y=-6(2.5-x)(x-5.5) = -6(2.5x -13.75 -x² +5.5x)
y = -6(-x²+8x -13.75)
 y = 6x²-48x+82.5
note : 
if f(x) = ax²+bx +c   the vertex is the point : ( -b/2a ; f(-b/2a))
a=6  b=-48 c = 82.5 .......calculate
-b/2a = -(-48)/2(6)= 4
f(4) =6(4)²-48(4)+82.5 =96 - 192 +82.5 = -13.5</span>
