The stopping distance d of an automobile is directly proportional to the square of its speed s. On one road, a car requires 75 f

Anton [14]

Answer:

The car requires 192 feet to stop from a speed of 48 miles per hour on the same road

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct proportion means that two quantities increase or decrease in the same ratio

If y is directly proportional to x (y ∝ x) , then $\frac{y_{1}}{y_{2}}=\frac{x_{1}}{x_{2}}$ <em>OR</em> y = k x, where k is the constant of proportionality

∵ The stopping distance d of an automobile is directly

proportional to the square of its speed s

- That means d ∝ s²

∴ $\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=\frac{(s_{1})^{2}}{(s_{2})^{2}}$

∵ A car requires 75 feet to stop from a speed of 30 miles per hour

∴ d = 75 feet

∴ s = 30 miles/hour

- Change the mile to feet

∵ 1 mile = 5280 feet

∴ 30 miles/hour = 30 × 5280 = 158400 feet/hour

∵ The car require to stop from a speed of 48 miles per hour

on the same road

- Change the mile to feet

∴ 48 miles/hour = 48 × 5280 = 253440 feet/hour

∵ $\frac{d_{1}}{d_{2}}=\frac{(s_{1})^{2}}{(s_{2})^{2}}$

- Substitute the values of $d_{1}$ by 75 feet, $s_{1}$ by 158400 feet/hour

and $s_{2}$ by 253440 feet/hour

∴ $\frac{75}{d_{2}}=\frac{(158400)^{2}}{(253440)^{2}}$

∴ $\frac{75}{d_{2}}=\frac{25}{64}$

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 25 × $d_{2}$ = 75 × 64

- Divide both sides by 25

∴ $d_{2}$ = 192 feet

The car requires 192 feet to stop from a speed of 48 miles per hour on the same road

If (a+b)^2=54, and (a-b)^=46, then a^2+b^2=?

erastovalidia [21]

$(a+b)^2 =a^2 +b^2 + 2ab = 54~~~.....(i)\\\\(a-b)^2 = a^2 +b^2 -2ab = 46~~~.....(i)\\\\\\(i)+(ii):\\\\(a+b)^2 +(a-b)^2 = 54+46\\\\\implies a^2 +b^2 + 2ab + a^2 +b^2 - 2ab =100\\\\\implies 2a^2 +2b^2 =100\\\\ \\\implies 2(a^2 +b^2) =100\\\\\implies a^2 +b^2 = \dfrac{100}2 = 50$

The graph of the parent function y = x cubed is horizontally stretched by a factor of One-fifth and reflected over the y-axis. W

sasho [114]

Answer: OPTION D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Below are some transformations for a function f(x):

If $-f(x)$ , then the function is reflected over the x-axis.

If $f(-x)$ , then the function is reflected over the y-axis.

If $f(bx)$ and $b>1$ , then the function is horizontally compressed.

If $f(bx)$ and $0 < b$ , then the function is horizontally stretched.

In this case you know that the parent function is:

$y=x^3$

According to the information given in the exercise, the parent function IS horizontally stretched by a factor of $\frac{1}{5}$ and it is also reflected over the y-axis.
