Answer:

f(3) = 425

f(3) is the elevation of a mountain climber after 3 hours of climbing.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given a line that relates time to elevation. We are also given that the equation of the line is f(x) = 125x + 50. From looking at the graph given, we can see that x is the time, in hours, and y, or f(x), is the height, in feet. We are asked to find f(3) and interpret it's meaning.

To find f(3), we would have to find what f(x) is when x = 3. To do this, lets plug in 3 for x into the given equation:

f(3) = 125(3) + 50 = 425

So f(3) = 425. Now, we already know that x is the time in hours and y, or f(x), is the elevation in feet. We set x to 3 when solving for f(3). We have also found that f(3), or y when x = 3, is 425. So f(3), or 425, is the elevation after 3 hours.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

10 - d = -34 - 5d show the work

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

d = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

10 - d = -34 - 5d

10 (- d + d) = -34 (- 5d + d)

10 = -34 - 4d

10 + 34 = (-34 + 34) - 4d

44 = 4d

44/4 = 4d/4

d = 11

Find the mass and center of mass of the lamina that occupies the region D and has the given density function rho. D is the trian

Alla [95]

Answer: mass (m) = 4 kg

center of mass coordinate: (15.75,4.5)

Step-by-step explanation: As a surface, a lamina has 2 dimensions (x,y) and a density function.

The region D is shown in the attachment.

From the image of the triangle, lamina is limited at x-axis: 0≤x≤2

At y-axis, it is limited by the lines formed between (0,0) and (2,1) and (2,1) and (0.3):

Points (0,0) and (2,1):

y = $\frac{1-0}{2-0}(x-0)$

y = $\frac{x}{2}$

Points (2,1) and (0,3):

y = $\frac{3-1}{0-2}(x-0) + 3$

y = -x + 3

Now, find total mass, which is given by the formula:

$m = \int\limits^a_b {\int\limits^a_b {\rho(x,y)} \, dA }$

Calculating for the limits above:

$m = \int\limits^2_0 {\int\limits^a_\frac{x}{2} {2(x+y)} \, dy \, dx }$

where a = -x+3

$m = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {\int\limits^a_\frac{x}{2} {(xy+\frac{y^{2}}{2} )} \, dx }$

$m = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {(-x^{2}-\frac{x^{2}}{2}+3x )} \, dx }$

$m = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {(\frac{-3x^{2}}{2}+3x)} \, dx }$

$m = 2.(\frac{-3.2^{2}}{2}+3.2-0)$

m = 2(-4+6)

m = 4

Mass of the lamina that occupies region D is 4.

Center of mass is the point of gravity of an object if it is in an uniform gravitational field. For the lamina, or any other 2 dimensional object, center of mass is calculated by:

$M_{x} = \int\limits^a_b {\int\limits^a_b {y.\rho(x,y)} \, dA }$

$M_{y} = \int\limits^a_b {\int\limits^a_b {x.\rho(x,y)} \, dA }$

$M_{x}$ and $M_{y}$ are moments of the lamina about x-axis and y-axis, respectively.

Calculating moments:

For moment about x-axis:

$M_{x} = \int\limits^a_b {\int\limits^a_b {y.\rho(x,y)} \, dA }$

$M_{x} = \int\limits^2_0 {\int\limits^a_\frac{x}{2} {2.y.(x+y)} \, dy\, dx }$

$M_{x} = 2\int\limits^2_0 {\int\limits^a_\frac{x}{2} {y.x+y^{2}} \, dy\, dx }$

$M_{x} = 2\int\limits^2_0 { ({\frac{y^{2}x}{2}+\frac{y^{3}}{3})}\, dx }$

$M_{x} = 2\int\limits^2_0 { ({\frac{x(-x+3)^{2}}{2}+\frac{(-x+3)^{3}}{3} -\frac{x^{3}}{8}-\frac{x^{3}}{24} )}\, dx }$

$M_{x} = 2.(\frac{-9.x^{2}}{4}+9x)$

$M_{x} = 2.(\frac{-9.2^{2}}{4}+9.2)$

$M_{x} = 18$

Now to find the x-coordinate:

x = $\frac{M_{y}}{m}$

x = $\frac{63}{4}$

x = 15.75

For moment about the y-axis:

$M_{y} = \int\limits^2_0 {\int\limits^a_\frac{x}{2} {2x.(x+y))} \, dy\,dx }$

$M_{y} = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {\int\limits^a_\frac{x}{2} {x^{2}+yx} \, dy\,dx }$

$M_{y} = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {y.x^{2}+x.{\frac{y^{2}}{2} } } \,dx }$

$M_{y} = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {x^{2}.(-x+3)+\frac{x.(-x+3)^{2}}{2} - {\frac{x^{3}}{2}-\frac{x^{3}}{8} } } \,dx }$

$M_{y} = 2.\int\limits^2_0 {\frac{-9x^3}{8}+\frac{9x}{2} } \,dx }$

$M_{y} = 2.({\frac{-9x^4}{32}+9x^{2})$

$M_{y} = 2.({\frac{-9.2^4}{32}+9.2^{2}-0)$

$M{y} =$ 63

To find y-coordinate:

y = $\frac{M_{x}}{m}$

y = $\frac{18}{4}$

y = 4.5

Center mass coordinates for the lamina are (15.75,4.5)

Factor the polynomial.

Degger [83]

It is answer choice A because you have to take the the GCF of each number which is 2x. Then if you were to divide the numbers by 2x you would put those numbers in the brackets.
$2x( x^{2} +2x+4)$ because $2x^3/2 x = x^{2}$ and $4 x^{2} /2x = 2x$ and $8x/2x = 4$
