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:

Gọi AH là đường cao kẻ từ A đến BC

Xét tam giác AHC vuông tại H

Suy ra AH = HC. cotA= 9.cot35° = 12,9

Xét tam giác AHB vuông tại H

Suy ra BH = AH.tanA = 12,9.tan61°=23,37

Ta có BC= HC+ HB= 9+23,27 =32,27

Diện tích tam giác ABC = 1/2 × AH ×BC= 1/2 ×12,9×32,27=208,1415

sammy [17]

The equation which is equivalent to the equation as given in the task content is; 6x -8y = 36.

<h3>Which equation is equivalent to the equation as given in the task content?</h3>

According to the task content, it follows that the equation which is given in the task content is;

3x -4y = 18.

Hence, upon multiplication of the whole equation by 2; the resulting equation from the multiplication is;

6x -8y = 36

Ultimately, the equivalent equation is; 6x -8y = 36.
