x-first\ number\\x-9-second\ number\\\\x(x-9)=736\\x^2-9x-736=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\\Delta=(-9)^2-4\cdot(-736)\cdot1=81+2944=3025\\\\\sqrt\Delta=55\\\\x_1=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}\ \ x_1=\frac{9-55}{2*1}=\frac{-46}{2}=-23
\\\\ or \\
x_2=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}\ \ x_2=\frac{9+55}{2*1}=\frac{64}{2}=32\\\\x_1\ is\ negative\ number\ so\ it\ can't\ be\ one\ of\ them\\\\32-9=23\\\\Searched\ number\ are\ 32\ and\ 23

A golf player is trying to make a hole-in-one on the miniature golf green shown.

The path of the ball is an illustration of absolute equation.

The equation of the path is: y =- \frac{12}7|x- 4.8| + 6.4

The given parameters are:

(h,k) = (4.8,6.4) --- the vertex (i.e. the point where the ball hits the wall)

(x_1,y_1) = (2,1.6)

(x_2,y_2) = (7.6,1.6)

An absolute function is represented as:

y = a |x - h| + k

Substitute (h,k) = (4.8,6.4)

y = a |x - 4.8| + 6.4

Substitute (x_1,y_1) = (2,1.6) for x and y

1.6 = a|2 - 4.8| + 6.4

1.6 = a|- 2.8| + 6.4

Remove absolute bracket

1.6 = 2.8a + 6.4

Collect like terms

2.8a = -6.4+1.6

2.8a =- 4.8

Solve for a

a =-\frac{4.8}{2.8}

Simplify

a =-\frac{12}{7}

Substitute a =-\frac{12}{7} in y = a |x - 4.8| + 6.4

y =- \frac{12}7|x- 4.8| + 6.4

Hence, the equation of the path is: y =- \frac{12}7|x- 4.8| + 6.4

See attachment for graph that models the path

A town's population is declining at a rate of 4% a year. If the population is currently 23,840 people, what will the population
Lyrx [107]

Using the decay formula: Total = start value x (1 - rate)^time

Total = 23,840 x (1-0.04)^10

Total = 23,840 x (0.96)^10

Total = 15,849.61

Rounded to nearest whole number = 15,850

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

y+2-x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

(-3,-5)=(x1,y1)

(3,1)=(x2,y2)

Slope(m)=y2-y1/x2-x1

=1-(-5)/3-(-3)

=1+5/3+3

=6/6

=1

Mid point=(x1+x2/2 , y1+y2/2)

=(-3+3/2 , -5+1/2)

=(0/2 , -4/2)

=(0 , -2)

Now, (0,-2)=(x1,y1)

Equation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+2=1(x-0)

y+2=1x

y+2-x=0 is the required equation.

On a particular day, the wind added 4 miles per hour to Alfonso's rate when he was cycling with the wind and subtracted 4 miles
german
On a particular day, the wind added 4 miles per hour to Alfonso's rate when he was cycling with the wind and subtracted 4 miles per hour from his rate on his return trip. Alfonso found that in the same amount of time he could cycle 57 miles with the wind, he could go only 33 miles against the wind.What is his normal bicycling speed with no wind?
