Answer:

It takes 46 seconds for the plane to reach the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The height of the paper airplane above the ground is given by a function:

f(x) = -1.5x + 69

where f(x) is the height above the ground and x is the time in seconds.

a) The attached image shows the graph for the given equation.

As clear from the graph the unction has a y-intercept of 69 and x-intercept of 46.

b) We have to find the time taken by he plane to reach the ground.

The height of plane on ground is 0

Thus, we can write:

0 = -1.5x + 69\\1.5x = 69\\x = \displaystyle\frac{69}{1.5}\\\\x = 46

c) Thus, it takes 46 seconds for the plane to reach the ground from the top of the tall building to reach a height of 0.

C seems to make the most sense, logarithmic and exponential functions are not gradual, and a step function just wouldn't fit in my eyes.

Andy has 31 coins made up of quarters and half dollars, and their total value is $11.00. How many quarters does he have?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation has two unknowns - the total number of half dollars and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.

  • h+q=31 is an equation representing the total number of coins
  • 0.50h+0.25q=11 is an equation representing the total value in money based on the number of coin. 0.50 and 0.25 come from the value of a half dollar and quarter individually.

We write the first equation in terms of q by subtracting it across the equal sign to get h=31-q. We now substitute this for h in the second equation.

0.50(31-q)+0.25q=11

15.5-0.50q+0.25q=11

15.5-0.25q=11

After simplifying, we subtract 15.5 across and divide by the coefficient of q.

-0.25q=-4.5

q=4

We now know of the 31 coins that 4 are quarters.
