Answer:

speed of light movement when boat is 1 mile from light house is 0.029  miles/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

distance of boat from light house is 2 miles

rate of turning of light is 100 degree per minute

w = 100 degree/min

w = 100 \times \frac{\pi}{180} rad/min

w = 1.745 rad/min

w = 0.0290 rad/sec

speed of movement of light v = w\times r

v = 0.029 \times 1 = 0.029 mile/sec

thus speed of light movement when boat is 1 mile from light house is 0.029  miles/sec

A city water company charges homeowners based on how much water they use in thousands of gallons. The company progressively char
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

  • 1700: $50
  • 2000: $60
  • 7000: $90

Step-by-step explanation:

You can read the answers from the graph. Find the usage on the horizontal scale, and look at the vertical scale to find the corresponding charge.

__

<h3>1700 gallons</h3>

The value 1700 is between 1000 and 2000, so will be between 1 and 2 on the horizontal scale. The graph is flat in that region. The charge is $50.

__

<h3>2000 gallons</h3>

The graph has a jump at 2 on the horizontal scale. The solid dot tells you that the charge is $60.

__

<h3>7000 gallons</h3>

At 7 on the horizontal scale, the graph is increasing from 80 to 100. At 7000 gallons, the line passes through the grid intersection indicating the charge is $90.

Which relation does not represent a function? A) a vertical line B) y = 5 9 x - 3 C) a horizontal line D) {(1, 7), (3,7), (5, 7)
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

A) a vertical line does not represent a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a relation to be a function for each value of x there must be only one value of y. In other words a function is one in which each value in the domain set corresponds to only one value in the range set.

Let us check for this condition in the give choices:

A) a vertical line

A vertical line is given as x=a which meas it is parallel to y-axis and has infinite number of y values for a single x value.

So, its Not a function

B) y=\frac{5}{9}x-3

For the given equation, on plugging in some x value will give a single y value.

So, its a Function

C) a horizontal line

A horizontal line is given as y=a which meas it is parallel to x-axis and has infinite number of x values giving a single y value.

So, its a Function

D) {(1, 7), (3,7), (5, 7), (7,7)}

For the given set for different x valuesthere is only one y value.

So, its a Function
