Answer:

c. t = 18; the Chang family has been driving for 18 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

D(t) = 2,280 - 60t

Find t when D(t) = 1,200

D(t) = 2,280 - 60t

1200 = 2280 - 60t

Subtract 2280 from both sides of the equation

1200 - 2,280 = 2280 - 60t - 2,280

- 1080 = - 60t

Divide both sides by -60

- 1080 / -60 = - 60t / -60

18 = t

t = 18

This means the Chang family has been driving for 18 hours

c. t = 18; the Chang family has been driving for 18 hours

A 20­ft ladder is leaning against a house. The bottom of the ladder is 3 ft from the house. To the nearest tenth of a foot, abou
Tasya [4]

Answer:  19.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem formula to solve for how high the top of the ladder reach.  

The formula says  a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Where a and b are the two legs and  C is the hypotenuse.

In this situation, the hypotenuse will be length of the ladder , and either  a or b will be the length of the ladder from the building or the length of how long the ladder.

a will be 3 ,  and c will be 20. Input in the values  into the formula and solve for b.

3^2 + b^2 = 20^2

9 + b^2 = 400

-9              -9

 b^2 = 391  

    b = \sqrt{391}

  b  = 19.77371   round to the nearest tenth is ,  19.8

Help ASAP I don’t get it
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

  • positive
  • negative

Step-by-step explanation:

The thrust of the question is to make sure you understand that increasing the y-coordinate of a point will move the point upward, and decreasing it will move the point downward.

That is adding a positive value "k" to x^2 will move the point (x, x^2) to the point (x, x^2+k), which will be above the previous point by k units.

If k is subtracted, instead of added, then the point will be moved downward.

The blanks are supposed to be filled with <u> positive </u>, and <u> negative </u>.

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

The wording of the statement you're completing is a bit odd. If k is negative (-2, for example), this statement is saying the graph is translated down -2 units. It is not. It is translated down |-2| = 2 units. The direction of translation depends on the sign of k. The amount of translation depends on the magnitude of k.

If you thoroughly understand (x, y) coordinates and how they are plotted on a graph, it should be no mystery that changing the y-coordinate will change the vertical position of the graph.
