Scientists are studying the temperature on a distant planet. They find that the surface temperature at one location is 40° Celsi

us. They also find that the temperature decreases by 3° Celsius for each kilometer you go up from the surface.
Let T represent the temperature (in Celsius), and let H be the height above the surface (in kilometers). Write an equation relating T to H,

Answer:

T(h) = 20 - 3h

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that for every km you go up, the temp goes down 3°.

Let's say you go up 1km, then the temp should be 17°. We can easily represent it by the equation: T(h) = 20 - 3h

If we go up 1km: T(1) = 20 - 3*(1) = 20 - 3 = 17°

If we go up 2km: T(2) = 20 - 3*(2) = 20 - 6 = 14°

If we go up 3km: T(3) = 20 - 3*(3) = 20 - 9 = 11°

Graph a line with a slope of -3 that contains the points (4,-2)
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

  see below for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a graph on a grid, locate the point (4, -2) and use the slope to find another point. One such point will be 1 to the left and up 3*, at (3, 1). With two points, you can draw the line through them to complete the graph.

__

For a graphing tool that requires an equation, the point-slope form of the equation can be used:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . a line of slope m through point (h, k)

For the given slope and point, the equation of the line is ...

  y +2 = -3(x -4)

  y = -3x +10

_____

* The slope is "rise" over "run". The slope of -3 means that a <em>run</em> of +1 will result in a <em>rise</em> of -3. The given point is already below the x-axis, so we don't really want to find more points farther down. In order to go up on a line with negative slope, we must choose a point to the left of the given one.

What is the integral of a square root? Please explain.
IrinaK [193]
If y = xⁿ

∫y dx =  xⁿ⁺¹ / (n + 1)  +  C    Provided n ≠ -1.

y = √x

y = x^(0.5)

∫y dx  =  x^(0.5+1) / (0.5 + 1) =   x^(1.5)  / 1.5 = x^(1.5)  / (3/2)

∫y dx = (2/3) x^(1.5)  + C.

∫y dx = (2/3) x^(3/2)  + C.

∫y dx = (2/3)√x³  + C
