The speed obtained is the y-component of the actual speed of the car. The y-component and actual speed are related by:
Vy = Vsin(∅)
100 = Vsin(45)
V = 141.4 km/h

What is an equation for the line perpendicular to y = 3x – 1 that passes through (-9, -2)?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

  • y = -1/3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, so the line is:</u>

  • y = -1/3x + b

<u>Finding the value of b, using the given point (-9, -2)</u>

  • -2 = -1/3*(-9) + b
  • -2 = 3 + b
  • b = -2 - 3
  • b = -5

<u>The line is</u>

  • y = -1/3x - 5

Your class is selling boxes of flower seeds as a fundraiser. The total profit p depends on the amount x that your class charges
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

$ 22.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Price charged for each box of seeds = x

Profit gained from from selling boxes of seeds = p

The equation of profit is modeled as

P(x) = 0.5x² + 36x - 179

As per given information if the fundraisers make a profit of  $379 then find the minimum price charged for each box of seed.

Now our above equation becomes

379 = -0.5x² + 36x - 179

Simplifying

379+179 = -0.5x² + 36x

558 = -0.5x² + 36x

0.5x² - 36x + 558 =0

multipying both sides of equation by 2

2(0.5x² - 36x + 558) = 2x0

x² - 72x +1116 = 0

Using quadratic formula we get the following factors

x= 49.4 or x= 22.60

As we can the smalles value is 22.6

So, they can charge 22.6 dollar for each bag of seeds in order to get profit of 379 dollars.

Stephanie can type around 70 words per minute. She has less than a week to type her final research paper. If the paper has to be
svetlana [45]
350*15 is 5250. That is the total words needed to reach her assignment paper goal. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour we would need to figure out how many words she can type per hour. 60*70 is 4200. Then we divide 5250 by 4200. We get 1.25. Soooo our final answer would be 1 hour and 15 minutes need to be set aside to type her assignment. I really hope this is correct it makes sense to me. If not i am truly sorry.

Don’t understand 23 and 24
enot [183]

Answer:

23.  16x² + 4x + 0.25

24.  16x² - 4x + 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions f(x) = 4x + 0.5 and g(x) = 4x - 0.5, questions 23 and 24 are asking you to square the entire function.  So, you will take the expression given in each function and square it:

(f(x))² = (4x + 0.5)(4x + 0.5) Using FOIL:

(4x*4x) + (4x*0.5) + (4x*0.5) + (0.5*0.5)

16x² + 2x + 2x + 0.25 = 16x² + 4x + 0.25

(g(x))² = (4x - 0.5)(4x - 0.5) Using FOIL:

(4x*4x) - (4x*0.5) - (4x*0.5) + (0.5*0.5)

16x² - 2x - 2x + 0.25 = 16x² - 4x + 0.25
