This is the quadratic function:
h(x)=ax²+bx+c
We have two points:
(1,58)
(2,112)
Now, we calculate this quadratic funtion.
we assume that h(0)=0
Therefore:
a(0)²+b(0)+c=0
c=0
(1,58)
a(1)²+b(1)=58
a+b=58 (1)
(2,112)
a(2)²+b(2)=112
4a+2b=112
2a+b=56 (1)
With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:
a+b=58
2a+b=56
we can solve this system of equations by reduction method.
-(a+b=58)
2a+b=56
---------------------
a=-2
-2(a+b=58)
2a+b=56
-------------------
-b=-60 ⇒ b=60
The function is:
h(x)=ax²+bx+c
h(x)=-2x²+60x
Now find the height, in feet, of the rock after 10 seconds in the air.
h(10)=-2(10)²+60(10)
h(10)=-200+600=400
Answer: 400 ft.
Answer:
Statements 2 and 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first statement is impossible since you cannot have half a person. The last statement is also incorrect, because it would imply that the total number of students in the class is -29. The second statement is correct, if you assume that x and y represent either the number of male or female students. The third statement is possible, and the numbers add up to 29. Finally, the fourth statement is impossible because it would imply that the class had negative male students. Hope this helps!
5:6
The fraction 85/102 goes to 5/6 so it is 5:6 or 5/6...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2s + 2.97, if he buys 2 sandwiches and a large drink then
2 represent the coefficients of s which is the number of sandwiches he bought
s represent a variable since it a function of the coefficient; s represent the price of sandwich
2.97 represent the price of large drink and also a constant since it has no letter added to
