Amir throws a stone off of a bridge into a river. The stone's height (in meters above the water) ttt seconds after Amir throws i
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

1) The vertex form of  h(t) = -5\cdot t^{2}+20\cdot t +160 is h -180 = -5\cdot (t-2)^{2}, 2) The stone reaches its maximum height 2 seconds after being thrown.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given that height of the stone is represented by a second-order polynomial, which depicts a parabola as graph. The best approach to determine the instant when stone reaches its highest is by vertex form, whose form is:

h-k = C\cdot (t-r)^{2}

Where:

r, k - Instant and maximum height of the stone, measured in seconds and meters.

C - Vertex constant, which must be negative as there is an absolute maximum, measured in meters per square second.

Let be h(t) = -5\cdot t^{2}+20\cdot t +160, which is transformed into vertex form:

i) h = -5\cdot t^{2}+20\cdot t +160 Given

ii) h = -5\cdot (t^{2}-4\cdot t -32) Distributive property/(-a)\cdot b = -a\cdot b

iii) h = -5\cdot [(t^{2}-4\cdot t +4)+(-36)] Existence of additive inverse/Definitions of addition and subtraction

iv) h = (-5)\cdot (t-2)^{2}+180 Distributive property/(-a)\cdot (-b) = a\cdot b/Perfect square binomial

v) h -180 = -5\cdot (t-2)^{2} Compatibility with addition/Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property/Definition of subtraction/Result

The vertex form of  h(t) = -5\cdot t^{2}+20\cdot t +160 is h -180 = -5\cdot (t-2)^{2}.

2) The time can be extracted from previous results, which indicates that stone reaches its maximum height 2 seconds after being thrown.

Find the sum (3.2+4x)+(18.25+6x)=
tatiyna

Answer:    -2.145

Step-by-step explanation:

(3.2+4x)+(18.25+6x)=

Simplifying

(3.2 + 4x) + (18.25 + 6x) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (3.2 + 4x)

3.2 + 4x + (18.25 + 6x) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (18.25 + 6x)

3.2 + 4x + 18.25 + 6x = 0

Reorder the terms:

3.2 + 18.25 + 4x + 6x = 0

Combine like terms: 3.2 + 18.25 = 21.45

21.45 + 4x + 6x = 0

Combine like terms: 4x + 6x = 10x

21.45 + 10x = 0

Solving

21.45 + 10x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-21.45' to each side of the equation.

21.45 + -21.45 + 10x = 0 + -21.45

Combine like terms: 21.45 + -21.45 = 0

0 + 10x = 0 + -21.45

10x = 0 + -21.45

Combine like terms: 0 + -21.45 = -21.45

10x = -21.45

Divide each side by '10'.

x = -2.145

Simplifying

x = -2.145

PLEASE HELP ME The cost of gasoline is $2.35 per gallon. The price per gallon increased an average of 4% per day over the period
baherus [9]

Answer:

  (b)  0 ≤ t ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate domain is the set of values of the independent variable (t) for which the function reasonably makes sense. We are told the model is of <em>prices over a week</em>, and that t represents the number of days since the beginning of the week.

It seems reasonable that the model is intended to apply to a period between t=0 (the beginning of the week) and t=7 (the end of the week). Thus the appropriate domain is ...

Simplify. Consider all cases. |x+7|, if x &gt; , if x = , if x &lt;
TEA [102]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 cases we need to consider:

1. x > -7

2. x = -7

3. x < -7

<u>Case 1: x > -7</u>

If x is greater than -7, then we know that any number x + 7 will be a positive number. This is because -7 is the smallest negative number possible that will produce a non-positive number; any number greater than -7 will give a positive number in x + 7. So, the simplified expression of |x + 7| is just x + 7.

<u>Case 2: x = -7</u>

If x = -7, we know that -7 + 7 = 0, so |x + 7| when x = -7 is simply 0.

<u>Case 3: x < -7</u>

If x is less than -7, then from the argument in Case 1, we know that all numbers x + 7 will be negative. This means that when simplifying the absolute value expression, we have to switch the two terms. So, the simplified expression of |x + 7| when x < -7 is 7 + x. (Note that this isn't the same as x + 7 because here, x is <em>always </em>a negative number)

Hope this helps!
