Subtract the y-coordinates. This is the rise.
Subtract the x-coordinates in the same order. This is the run.
Slope = rise/run.

Subtract the y-coordinates: -6 - 15 = -21. rise = -21
Subtract the x-coordinates in the same order:5 - 2 = 3. run = 3

slope = rise/run = -21/3 = -7

Which is the graph of f(x)=√x?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Given function:

$f(x)=\sqrt{x}$

Replace f(x) for y:

$\implies y=\sqrt{x}$

Square both sides:

$\implies y^2=x$

This is a <u>sideways parabola</u> that opens to the <em>right</em>, with an axis of symmetry at y = 0. (Refer to attachment 1)

If we square root this again, we get:

$\implies \sqrt{y^2}=\sqrt{x}$

$\implies y=\pm\sqrt{x}$

So $y=\sqrt{x}$ is the part of the parabola in quadrant I → (x, y)

And $y=-\sqrt{x}$ is the part of the parabola in quadrant IV → (x, -y)

(Refer to attachment 2)

Therefore, the graph of the given function is <u>attachment 3</u>.

Colossus Added to six flags st. Louis in 1986, the Colossus is a giant Ferris wheel. Its diameter is 165 feet, it rotates at a r

NemiM [27]

Given:

D=165 feet and the frequency of the motion is 1.6 revolutions per minute.

Solution:

The radius is half of the diameter.

The radius of the wheel is 82.5 feet.

$T=\frac{1}{1.6} \text{ minutes}$

As we know: $\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

Substitute the value of T in the above formula.

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{\frac{1}{1.6}}\\\omega=3.2\pi$

If the center of the wheel is at the origin then for $t=0$ the rest position is $-a$ .

This can be written as:

$h(t)=-a\cos(\omega t)\\h(t)=-82.5cos(32.\pi t)$

The actual height of the rider from the ground is:

$h(t)=\text{ Initial height from bottom}+\text{ radius}-82.5\cos(3.2\pi t)\\h(t)=15+82.5-82.5\cos(3.2\pi t)\\h(t)=97.5-82.5\cos(3.2\pi t)$

The required equation is $h(t)=97.5-82.5\cos(3.2\pi t)$ .
