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

Answer:

Pretend the y-axis is a mirror

If the original shape is

P=4,-2

Z=5,-4

M=4,-4

The new image made by mirroring it will be

P’= -4,-2

Z’= -5,-4

M’= -4,-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sorry if this doesn’t make sense, just graph P’, Z’, and M’ for a mirrored image

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

30.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the percent that was US exports by dividing 6.2 by 20.6, then multiplying it by 100

(6.2/20.6) x 100

= approximately 30.1

So, approximately 30.1% of the trade was US exports

A ball of mass 0.4 kg flies through the air at low speed, so that air resistance is negligible. What is the net force acting on
arsen [322]

Answer:

-3.92 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mass of ball=0.4 kg

Acceleration due to gravity=-9.8m/s^2

Because the ball flies against to gravity

We have to find the net force acting on the ball while it is in motion.

We know that when there is no air resistance then the net  force acts on the ball is equal to weight of ball.

Net force,F =mg

Substitute the values then we get

F=0.4(-9.8)

F=-3.92N

Hence, the net force acting on the ball while it is on motion=-3.92 N

Simplify:<br> 2 11/12 + 5 1/2 + 3 3/8<br> Write you answer as a mixed number.
zysi [14]

Answer:

2\frac{11}{12} +5 \frac{1}{2} + 3\frac{3}{8} (write them out and convert them all into mixed fractions)

\frac{35}{12} + \frac{11}{2} + \frac{27}{8} (find the LCD aka least common denominator)

\frac{70}{24} + \frac{132}{24}  + \frac{81}{24} (add all numerators together)

\frac{283}{24}  (this is improper, so you need to convert back to mixed by dividing)

11\frac{19}{24} (this is your answer)
