The world’s fastest train travels about 162 mi/h. Estimate how far the train travels in 4.75 h.

When using estimation, we usually will round up or down depending.

162= rounds down to 160

4.75= rounds to 5

160*5= 800

It travels around 800 miles in 5 hours.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

770 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The world's fastest train travels about 162 miles per hour.

The speed of train = 162 miles/hour

Train travels in 4.75 hour = 162 × 4.75

= 769.5 miles ≈ 770 miles

The train travels almost 770 miles in 4.75 hours.

What does the degree of a polynomial expression tell you about its related polynomial function? Explain your thinking. Give an e

ludmilkaskok [199]

The graph of function like that may may never cross the x-axis,

so the function could have no real zeros.

If it does have zeros, they will come in pairs,

because "what goes up must come down" and vice versa.

Of course the function cannot have more zeros than its degree.

For example, a polynomial function of degree 6 could have 0, 2, 4, or 6 real zeros.

a missile is launched from the ground. its height, h(x), can be represented by a quadratic function in terms of time, x, in seco

fomenos

Answer:

The height of the missile in the air after 11 seconds is 330 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for the quadratic function f(x)= $ax^2 + bx + c$ , which is the function of the parabola model.

We are given two points.

(1, 130) and (2, 240)

Here the first coordinate represents the x (time) and the second coordinate represents h(x), which is height.

Now plug these two coordinates and find the two equations.

(1, 130), the equation is

130 = a.(1)^2 + b(1) + c, where "c" is the initial height. Which is equal to zero.

Therefore, we get

130 = a + b + 0

a + b = 130 -------(1)

Now let's form the second equation using the coordinate (2, 240)

240 = $a(2)^2 + b(2) + 0$

240 = 4a + 2b -------------(2)

Now let's solve the equations (1) and (2) and find the value of "a" and "b"

a + b = 130 can be written as a = 130 - b

Here we can use the substitution method.

Now plug in a = 130 - b in the second equation, we get

240 = 4(130 - b) + 2b

240 = 520 - 4b + 2b

240 = 520 - 2b

2b = 520 - 240

2b = 280

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

b = 140

Now plug in b = 140 in a = 130 -b and find the value of a

a = 130 - 140

a = -10

Now we got a = -10 and b = 140.

We plug in a = -10 and b = 140 in the general form, we gety

h(x) = $-10x^2 + 140x + c$

Where c is the initial height, which is equal to 0.

h(x) = $-10x^2 + 140x$

Now plug in x = 11 seconds and find the height.

h(11) = -10(11)^2 + 140 (11)

= -10 (121) + 1540

= - 1210 + 1540

h(11) = 330 feet,

Therefore, the height of the missile in the air after 11 seconds is 330 feet.
