Two ocean beaches are being affected by erosion. The table shows the width, in feet, of each beach at high tide measured where 1

995 is represented by year 0.
Year number Western Beach width (in feet) Dunes Beach width (in feet)
0 100 20
5 90 45
10 80 70
11 78 75
12 76 80
15 70 95
Describe the patterns shown by the erosion data measurements shown for each of the beaches in the table.
Between which years will the beaches have approximately the same width?
Assuming these rates remain constant, what can you do to get a better approximation of when the two beaches will have the same width?

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 4x + 8?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

(A) h(x) = 1/4x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: f(x)=4x+8

Rewrite with y: y=4x+8

Switch x and y: x=4y+8

Solve for y: x-8=4y

(x-8)/4=y

1/4x-2=y

y=1/4x-2

This means that h(x) = 1/4x -2 is the correct answer

Lily is cutting a piece of yarn into 3 (three) pieces. The 2nd piece is 3 times as long as the 1st piece, while the 3rd piece is
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The length of the first piece = 41 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the first piece = a

Let the length of the second piece = b

Let the length of the third piece = c

we are given the following:

b = 3a . . . . . (1)     (The 2nd piece is 3 times as long as the 1st piece)

c = 6 + a  . . . . (2)    (the 3rd piece is 6 centimeters longer than the 1st piece)

a + b + c = 211 . . . . . (3)    (  the yarn has a total length of 211 centimeters)

Next, let us eliminate two variables, and this can easily be done by substituting the values of b and c in equations 1 and 2 into equation 3. this is done as follows:

a + b + c = 211

a + (3a) + (6 + a) = 211       ( remember that   b = 3a; c = 6 + a)

a + 3a + 6 + a = 211

5a + 6 = 211

5a = 211 - 6 = 205

5a = 205

∴ a = 205 ÷ 5 = 41 cm

a = 41 cm

Therefore the length of the first piece (a) = 41 cm

now  finding b and c

substituting a into equation 1 and 2

b = 3a

b = 3 × 41 = 123

∴ b = 123 cm

c = 6 + a

c = 6 + 41 = 47

∴ c = 47 cm

X - 2y &lt; 2<br> graph the inequality
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

y > 1/2x - 1

First, draw the dashed line y = 1/2x - 1 (slope intercept ; y = mx + b).

Start at -1 on the y-axis, and continue going 2 units to the right, and 1 unit up for the right side of the graph.

Then starting at -1 on the y-axis, continue going 2 units to the left, and 1 unit down for the left side of the graph.

Explanation:

Convert standard form (Ax + By = C) by isolating y from the rest of the equation.

Ax + By = C → y = -Ax/B + C/B → y = mx + b.

Given a standard form equation in inequality form,

x - 2y < 2.

Set it to slope-intercept as an inequality to find the slope and y-intercept.

When negating (making opposite) a variable, you flip the inequality.

x - 2y < 2 → x - 2y - x < 2 - x → -2y < -x + 2 → 2y > x - 2 → <u>y > 1/2x - 1</u><u>.</u>

Write a polynomial function, p(x) with degree 3 that has p(7)=0
MArishka [77]

Answer:

p (x) = x^{3} - 21x^{2}+ 147x - 343

is the required polynomial with degree 3 and p ( 7 ) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p ( 7 ) = 0

To Find:

p ( x ) = ?

Solution:

Given p ( 7 ) = 0 that means substituting 7 in the polynomial function will get the value of the polynomial as 0.

Therefore zero's of the polynomial is seven i.e 7

Degree : Highest raise to power in the polynomial is the degree of the polynomial

We have the identity,

(a -b)^{3} = a^{3}-3a^{2}b +3ab^{2} - b^{3}

Take a = x

        b = 7

Substitute in the identity we get

(x -7)^{3} = x^{3}-3x^{2}(7) +3x(7)^{2} - 7^{3}\\(x -7)^{3} = x^{3}-21x^{2} +147x - 343

Which is the required Polynomial function in degree 3 and if we substitute 7 in the polynomial function will get the value of the polynomial function zero.

p ( 7 ) = 7³ - 21×7² + 147×7 - 7³

p ( 7 ) = 0

p (x) = x^{3} - 21x^{2}+ 147x - 343

A sofa is on sale for $703 which is 24% less than the regular price what is the regular price
Firdavs [7]

Hello!

We could write this as an equation below.

0.76x=703

We divide both sides by 0.76.

x=925

Therefore, the regular price is $925.

I hope this helps!
