Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use equation

20000-16000=4000

20000:100=4000 :x

x20000=400000

x=400000/20000

x=20 %

Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After three hours, the velocity of the car is 51 km/h. After five hou
bija089 [108]
It's not obvious here, but you're being asked to find a linear equation for the velocity of the car, given two points on the line that represents this velocity.

Find the slope of the line segment that connects the points (3 hr, 51 km/hr) and (5 hr, 59 km/hr).  Graph this line.  Where does this line intersect the y-axis?  Find the y-value; it's your "y-intercept," b.

Now write the equation:  velocity = (slope of line)*t + b

The units of measurement of "slope of line" must be "km per hour squared," and those of the "y-intercept" must be "km per hour."

Part B:  Start with the y-intercept (calculated above).  Plot it on the vertical axis of your graph.  Now label the horizontal axis in hours:  {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.  Draw a vertical line through t=6 hours.  It will intercept both the horiz. axis and the sloping line representing the velocity as a function of time.  Show only the part of the graph that extends from t=0 hours to t=6 hours.

If x= 6 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic equation, which statement best describes the discriminant of the
maw [93]

Answer:

The discriminant is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0

The discriminant is equal to

D=(b^{2}-4ac)

If D=0 -----> The equation has only one real solution

If D>0 ----> The equation has two real solutions

If D<0 ----> The equation has complex solutions

In this problem

If the equation has only one intercept (x=6)

then

The equation has only one real solution

therefore

The discriminant is 0.

nadezda [96]

Answer:

$2.64

Step-by-step explanation:

9 coins are pennies (reply to my comment if you want to know how I got it)

19 coins are dimes (reply to my comment if you want to know how I got it)

9 (pennies) + 4 = 13 (nickels)

$1.90 (dimes) + $0.09 (pennies) + $0.65 (nickels) = $2.64
