Linda goes water-skiing one sunny afternoon. After skiing for 15 min, she signals to the driver of the boat to take her back to
trasher [3.6K]
60 = a * (-30)^2
a = 1/15
So y = (1/15)x^2


abc)
The derivative of this function is 2x/15. This is the slope of a tangent at that point.
If Linda lets go at some point along the parabola with coordinates (t, t^2 / 15), then she will travel along a line that was TANGENT to the parabola at that point.
Since that line has slope 2t/15, we can determine equation of line using point-slope formula:
y = m(x-x0) + y0
y = 2t/15 * (x - t) + (1/15)t^2
Plug in the x-coordinate "t" that was given for any point.


d)
We are looking for some x-coordinate "t" of a point on the parabola that holds the tangent line that passes through the dock at point (30, 30).
So, use our equation for a general tangent picked at point (t, t^2 / 15):
y = 2t/15 * (x - t) + (1/15)t^2
And plug in the condition that it must satisfy x=30, y=30.
30 = 2t/15 * (30 - t) + (1/15)t^2
t = 30 ± 2√15 = 8.79 or 51.21
The larger solution does in fact work for a tangent that passes through the dock, but it's not important for us because she would have to travel in reverse to get to the dock from that point.
So the only solution is she needs to let go x = 8.79 m east and y = 5.15 m north of the vertex.

The banquet offers beef and chicken meals. Chicken costs $5 and the beef costs $7. There will be 250 people at the banquet. If t
BaLLatris [955]

Answer

125 of each meal are ordered

Step-by-step explanation:

You first multiply 7 x 125, which will get you 875

Next, you multiply 5 x 125 and get 625

Add that together and you get 1500

What is the product (9t-4)(-9-4)
Scrat [10]

Answer:

-81t^2 +16

Step-by-step explanation:

(9t-4)(-9t-4)

FOIL

first: -9t*9t = -81t^2

outer : -4*9t = -36t

inner : -4 *-9t = 46t

last = -4*-4 = 16

Add them together

-81t^2 -36t+36t+16

-81t^2 +16
