If f(x)=(x+1)(x-2)(x-3) represent a student's displacement from school, what changes would g(x)=-0.5(x-9)(x-12)(x-13)+6 entail?

Answer:

<em>c) Going half the distance, going in the opposite direction, starting 10 minutes later and starting 6 miles further.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Function Modeling</u>

Let's take a look at both functions provided by the problem:

f(x)=(x+1)(x-2)(x-3)

g(x)=-0.5(x-9)(x-12)(x-13)+6

We are told that f(x) represents a student's displacement from school. We notice the following changes in g(x) with respect to f(x)

  • All the expressions in parentheses represent a displacement of -10 units in x. If x is time, then in g(x), the time is 10 minutes later than in f(x)
  • The factor that multiplies the three parentheses is 1 in f(x) and -0.5 in g(x). If that factor is the speed, then in g(x) the speed is half the speed in f(x) and in the opposite direction. The distance will be half of the distance of f because the student moves slower.
  • g(x) has an offset of +6, meaning the object is initially 6 miles further.

The option that collects all the conditions observed in both functions is:

c) Going half the distance, going in the opposite direction, starting 10 minutes later and starting 6 miles further

Noemi strings together x green beads at $0.75 each with 3 blue beads at $0.30 each. She makes a bracelet that averages $0.60 per
labwork [276]

Given that Noemi makes a bracelet that averages $0.60 per bead, we need to write an equation that models this average bead cost. This can be found by taking the total cost of the beads and dividing it by the number of beads used.

1. The total cost of the beads may be found by multiplying the price of each type of bead by the number used, and then adding these values together. Thus:

Total Cost = 0.75x + 3*0.3

= 0.75x + 0.9

2. Total number of beads = x + 3

3. Thus, the average cost is:

(0.75x + 0.9)/(x + 3)

4. Using the value of the average cost per bead given to us ($0.60), we can now write up the full equation:

0.6 = (0.75x + 0.9)/(x + 3)

Given (x – 7)^2 = 36, select the values of x. x = 13 x = 1 x = –29 x = 42
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

We know the square root of 36 is 6.

As a result, the total value inside the bracket should give us 6.

Thus, 13 - 7 does gives us 6.

So, x = 13

Or

(x – 7)^2 = 36,

Square root both sides to get rid of the square symbol

Now:

(x - 7) = 6

+7 both sides

x= 13

Hope this helps!

Las dos cifras de un número suman 11 . Si las cifras se invierten de orden se invierten de orden , se obtiene otro número que ex
Alik [6]

Answer:

El número es el 47

Step-by-step explanation: Con los dígitos de los siguientes números se obtiene que su suma es 11

47        4  +  7  =  11

38         3  +  8 =  11

29         2   + 9  = 11

Si se cambia el orden de los dígitos:

47       se convierte en    74        74 - 47  =  27

38                  "    "             83        83 - 38 =  45

29                  "    "             92        92 - 29 = 63

Entonces el número solicitado es el 47
