A race car driving under the caution flag at 80 feet per second begins to accelerate at a constant rate after the warning flag.

The distance traveled since the warning flag in feet is characterized by 30t 2 + 80t, where t is the time in seconds after the car starts accelerating again.How long does it take the car to travel 30 feet after it begins accelerating?

Answer: 1/3 sec or 0.333 sec


Step-by-step explanation:


d = 30*t^2 + 80*t = 30

putting into quadratic form, a*t^2 + b*t + c = 0

30*t^2 + 80*t - 30 = 0 where: a = 30 b = 80 c = -30

solve quadratic:

t = [-b + sqrt( b^2 - 4*a*c)]/2*a

substitute in values above

therefore, t = 1/3 sec or 0.333 sec

Jonah collects rainwater in a large barrel that weighs 30 pounds. When there are 10 gallons of water in the barrel, the total we
Serjik [45]
The first thing we are going to do for this case is define variables.
 We have then:
 x: number of gallons of water
 y: total weight
 We then have an equation of the form:
 y-yo = m (x - xo)

 Where,
 m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

 Substituting values:
 m = (196.8 - 113.4) / (20 - 10)

m = 8.34
 We choose an ordered pair:
 (xo, yo) = (10, 113.4)

 Substituting values:
 y-113.4 = 8.34 (x - 10)

 Rewriting:
 y = 8.34x - 83.4 + 113.4

y = 8.34x + 30
 Answer:
 
y = 8.34x + 30

Ellie's Bakery is having a grand opening sale. All pastries are being discounted by 25%. Let x represent the regular price of an
Sindrei [870]

a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry =  0.75 x

b)  The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let x be the regular price of the pastry in the bakery

Percentage of discount = 25%

Amount of discount  = 0.25 x

The expression to find the sale price of pastry = x - 0.25 x = 0.75 x

Step 2 :

Sale price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.03 = 0.75 x

<u>To find the regular price</u>

0.75x = 2.03

x = \frac{2.03}{0.75} = 2.70

Regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70

Step 3 :

Answer :

a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry =  0.75 x

b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
