A diver jumps up and over from a cliff in order to avoid rocks and land in the deeper water. The path of the dive can be modeled

using the function f(x)=−16x2+2x+48, where f(x) is the height, in feet, of the diver at x time in seconds. What is the maximum height, in feet, the diver will reach? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary. Do not include units in your answer.

Answer:

48.06  to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -16x^2 + 2x + 48

To find the maximum height we convert to vertex form:

= -16(x^2 + 1/8x) + 48

= -16[x + 1/16)^2 - 1/256] + 48

= -16(x + 1.16)^2  + 16/256 + 48

= 48.0625.

Jamal works as an electrician’s apprentice. He rewired 4 electrical outlets in 1 1/2 hours. If he works at the same pace for 7.5
RSB [31]

This can be solve by first solving the proportionality constant

Number electic outlets rewired is directly proportional to time spent

4 = (1 ½)a

Let be the proportionality constant

A = 8/3

O = (8/3)(7.5)

o = 20 outlets will jamal rewired if he works for 7.5 hrs

The function f(x) = x2 + 22x + 58 is translated 4 units to the right and 16 units up. What is the vertex form of the new functio
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The new function is (x + 7)² - 47 ⇒ the 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets put the function f(x) in the vertex form at first and then make

 the translation

∵ The general form of the quadratic function is

  f(x) = ax² + bx + c

∵ The x-coordinate of the vertex of the function is -b/2a

∵ The y-coordinate of the vertex of the function is f(-b/2a)

- Lets find a , b from the function two find the vertex point

∵ f(x) = x² + 22x + 58

∴ a = 1 , b = 22 , c = 58

∵ x-coordinate of the vertex = -b/2a

∴ x-coordinate of the vertex = -22/2(1) = -11

∵ y-coordinate of the vertex = f(-11)

∴ f(-11) = (-11)² + 22(-11) + 58 = 121 - 242 + 58 = -63

∴ The vertex point is (-11 , -63)

- The vertex form of the quadratic function is f(x) = (x - h)² + k , where

  (h , k) are the coordinates of the vertex point

∵ The vertex point is (-11 , -63)

∴ h = -11 , k = -63

∴ f(x) = (x - -11)² + -63

∴ f(x) = (x + 11)² - 63

* lets revise the rules of the translation

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  

 by m units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - m)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  

 by m units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + m)

- If the function f(x) translated vertically up  

 by n units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) + n

- If the function f(x) translated vertically down  

 by n units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) – n

∵ f(x) will translate 4 units to the right

∴ m = 4

∵ f(x) ⇒ f(x - m)

∴ (x + 11)²  ⇒ (x + 11 - 4)² = (x + 7)²

∵f(x) will translate 16 units up

∴ -63 will add by 16

∴ n = 16

∴ f(x) ⇒ f(x) + n

∵ -63 + 16 = -47

∴ The new function is (x + 7)² - 47

a. For what values of x does f (x )equals 3 x plus 3 sine x have a horizontal tangent​ line? b. For what values of x does f (x )
laila [671]

Answer:

(a)Therefore the value of x=\pi

(b) Therefore the value of x =\frac{\pi}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Horizontal tangent line: The first order derivative of a function gives the slope of the tangent of the function. The slope of horizontal line is zero.If the slope of tangent line is zero then the tangent line is called horizontal tangent line.

(a)

Given function is,

f(x)= 3x+3sin x

Differential with respect to x

f'(x)=3+3cos x

For horizontal tangent line, f'(x)=0

3+ 3 cos x= 0

⇒3 cos x=-3

⇒cos x=-1

⇒x = 180° =\pi

Therefore the value of x=\pi

(b)

Given that, the slope is 3.

Then,f'(x)=3

3+ 3 cos x= 3

⇒3 cos x= 3-3

⇒cos x=0

⇒x = 90° =\frac{\pi}{2}

Therefore the value of x =\frac{\pi}{2}
