Linda shoots an arrow at a target in an archery competition. The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation y= -0.02x to th

e power of 2 + 0.65+4 where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow. How far from Linda does the arrow hit the ground? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

37.8metres

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation:

y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4

Where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow.

The arrow hits the ground when its height (y) is zero.

Therefore, we determine the value(s) of x for which:

y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4=0

Using a calculator to solve the quadratic equation:

x=37.79 or -5.29

Since the distance cannot be a negative value, we ignore -5.29.

The distance from Linda when the arrow hits the ground is 37.8metres (to the nearest tenth)

Answer:

37.8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The arc trajectory of the arrow is modeled by:

                    y = -0.02x^2 + 0.65x + 4

Where, x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda

            y is the height (in meters) of the arrow

Find:-

How far from Linda does the arrow hit the ground? Round to the nearest tenth.

Solution:-

- We are to determine the range of the projectile trajectory of the arrow. The maximum distance "x_max" occurs when the arrow hits the ground.

- Set the trajectory height of arrow from linda , y = 0:

                   0 = -0.02x^2 + 0.65x + 4

- Solve the quadratic equation:

                   x = -5.29 m , x = 37.8 m

- The negative distance x lies at the back of Linda and hence can be ignored. The maximum distance travelled by the arrow would be = 37.8 m

If EF=2x-12, FG= 3x-15, and EG=23, find values of x, EF, and FG
velikii [3]

we have that


*-------------------------*--------------------------------*

E                            F                                     G


EF=2x-12

FG= 3x-15

EG=23


we know that


EF + FG = EG


so

[2x - 12] + [3x - 15] = 23 simplify

5x - 27 = 23 add 27 to both sides

5x = 50 divide both sides by 5

x = 10

EF=2x-12-------> EF=2*10-12-------> EF=8

FG= 3x-15------> FG=3*10-15------> FG=15



therefore


the answer part a) is

the value of x is 10


the answer part b) is

the value of EF is 8


the answer part c) is

the value of FG is 15

Carter works in a department store selling clothing. He makes a guaranteed salary of $400 per week, but is paid a commision on t
pentagon [3]

Answer:

$837.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

He makes a guaranteed salary of $400 per week

Commision on top of his base salary equal to 25% of his total sales for the week

Required

His total salary when he made sales of 25%

Step two

let us solve for 25% of $1750 made

=25/100*$1750

=0.25*$1750

=$437.5

Hence his total payment for the week will be

=$400+$437.5

=$837.5

Also, if the sales is $x his pay would be

let y be his pay

y=0.25x+400
