An icicle drips at a rate that can be represented by the function f(x) = −x2 + 11x − 18, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 10 and x is the number of

hours after the sun has risen. When f(x) is a negative number, the icicle is not dripping. Determine the values when the icicle starts and stops dripping.

Calculate f(x) for all numbers between 0 and 10:

f(0) = −0^2 + 11(0) − 18 = -18

f(1) = −1^2 + 11(1) − 18 = -8

f(2) = −2^2 + 11(2) − 18 = 0

f(3) = −3^2 + 11(3) − 18 = 6

f(4) = −4^2 + 11(4) − 18 = 10

f(5) = −5^2 + 11(5) − 18 = 12

f(6) = −6^2 + 11(6) − 18 = 12

f(7) = −7^2 + 11(7) − 18 = 10

f(8) = −8^2 + 11(8) − 18 = 6

f(9) = −9^2 + 11(9) − 18 = 0

f(10) = −10^2 + 11(10) − 18 = -8

When the value is negative it doesn't drip, so it starts and stops dripping when the values = 0

Which is f(2) and f(9), the values are 2 and 9.

Solve and check please i need help
viktelen [127]

Answer:

e = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

15 = e/0.5

You need to find what e equals. To do that, you need e all by itself. So to get e by itself in this equation, you need to multiply by 1/2 (same thing as 0.5). 15 x 0.5 is equal to 7.5.

To check your work, 7.5/0.5 is equal to 15.

So you know it's correct.

I hope this helps you :)
