Answer:

$480

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 7x + 8x + 10x =1200

25x=1200

x=48, where x is the amount needed to multiply

2) The greatest amount of share is the roommate paying 10 (in the ratio)

Using the x from Step 1 multiply 10 with 48

48 x 10

=480

Answer: $480

By "y = −9x2 − 2x" I assume you meant  <span>y = −9x^2 − 2x (the "^" symbol represents exponentiation).

Let's find the first derivative of y with respect to x:  dy/dx = -18x - 2.  This is equivalent to the slope of the tangent line to the (parabolic) curve.  Now let this derivative (slope) = 0 and solve for the critical value:  -18x - 2 = 0, or
-18x = 2.  Solving for x,   x = -2/18,    or    x = -1/9.

When x = -1/9, y = -9(-1/9)^2 - 2(-1/9).  This simplifies to y = -9/9 + 2/9, or 
y = -7/9.

The only point at which the tangent to the curve is horiz. is (-1/9,-7/9).</span>

Answer: Approximately 72.69 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Antenna height = h

sin(42.3)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} =\frac{h}{108} \\\\108*sin(42.3)=h\\\\h=72.685

Rapper DaBaby drove at a speed of 45 mph in front of Coosa High School on his way home from North Carolina. What was his speed i
NeTakaya
To find the answer, set up an equation:
\frac{45 \: miles}{1 \: hour}  \times  \frac{1000 \: meters}{1 \: mile}  \times  \frac{1 \: hour}{3600 \: seconds}  =
Using this set up we can cross out the units that are on opposite sides of the proportion such as miles and hours, leaving us with the desired units of meters and seconds. Then calculate m/s by multiplying 45 by 1000 meters and then dividing that value by 3600 seconds.

The resulting answer is 45mph = 12.5 m/s
