Answer:
a) It's a quadratic
b) f(x) = A(x-3)(x-7)
c) she is right
Step-by-step explanation:
(0-12)/(3-1) = -6
(-4-0)/(5-3) = -2
Since the slope is not constant, it can't be a linear.
Therefore a quadratic
Since the zeroes are 3 and 7,
Factors are (x - 3) and (x - 7)
f(x) = A(x - 3)(x - 7)
Use any one point besides the x-intercepts to find A
12 = A(1-3)(1-7)
12 = 12A
A = 1
f(x) = (x - 7)(x - 3)
f(x) = x² - 7x - 3x + 21
f(x) = x² - 10x + 21
She is right
The full answer would be x^2 + 8x + 16 + (54/(x-3)). Therefore, the remainder would be A. 54.
Hope this helps!
Taxi fare in Tampa costs a base fee of $4 plus an additional $0.85 for each mile traveled. 17 miles * . 85 = 14.45 + 4.00 = 18.45 would a person pay to take a taxi from work to home if the distance is 17 miles. This answer has been confirmed as correct and helpful.
Answer:
27.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a ratio that represents the problem:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
Substitute with the dimensions of the 34 foot pole and its 30 foot shadow.
34 : 30
Find the unit rate:
The unit rate is when one number in a ratio is 1.
Let's make the Shadow equal to one by dividing by 30 on both sides.
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
34 : 30
/30 /30
1.13 : 1
Now, let's multiply by 24 on both sides to find the height of the tree.
Multiply:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
1.13 : 1
x24 x24
27.2 : 24
Therefore, the tree is 27.2 feet tall.
