Answer:

%  change in stopping distance = 7.34 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The stooping distance is given by

T = 2.5 x + 0.5 x^{2}

We will approximate this distance  using the relation

f (x + dx) = f (x)+ f' (x)dx

dx = 26 - 25 = 1

T' =  2.5 + x

Therefore

f(x)+f'(x)dx = 2.5x+ 0.5x^{2} + 2.5 +x

This is the stopping distance at x = 25

Put x = 25 in above equation

2.5 × (25) + 0.5× 25^{2} + 2.5 + 25 = 402.5 ft

Stopping distance at x = 25

T(25) = 2.5 × (25) + 0.5 × 25^{2}

T(25) = 375 ft

Therefore approximate change in stopping distance = 402.5 - 375 = 27.5 ft

%  change in stopping distance = \frac{27.5}{375} × 100

%  change in stopping distance = 7.34 %

Answer:

£10,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = principal × rate × time

Principal = £6000

Rate = 7% = 0.07

Time = 10 years

Simple interest = principal × rate × time

= £6000 × 0.07 × 10

= £4,200

Total = simple interest + principal

= £4,200 + £6,000

= £10,200

He would have to pay back a total of £10,200 in 10 years

For the given quadratic equation convert into vertex form, find the vertex, and find the value for x = 6. Show your work.

Since we know x=6, replace all the x with 6 in the equation and then follow the PEMDAS rule. y= -2(6)^2 + 2(6) + 2 y= -2 (36) + 2 (6) + 2 y= -72 + 12 + 2 y= -60+2 y= -58

Answer:

Volume=Length×Width×Height

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangular prism is a 3D figure with 6 rectangular faces. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, multiply its 3 dimensions: length × width × height. The volume is expressed in cubic units.

EXAMPLE:

Lets say the HEIGHT is 2mm. Lets say the WIDTH is 1mm. Lets say the LENGTH is 10mm.

L×W×H

10×1×2=20mm

20 Cubic mm
