Answer:

Remember, for solve the quadratic equation

ax^2+bx+c=0

we use the quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

We have the equation 3x+8=9x^2 since a must be 9 then we pass the entire left side of the equation to the right side. We get the equation:

3x+8=9x^2\\8=9x^2-3x\\0=9x^2-3x-8

Then, observe that a=9 and b=-3

Kira exercises no less than 40 minutes per day. Use t to represent Kira's amount of exercise (in minutes per day).
VikaD [51]

Kira's time exercising every day can be represented as t  ≥ 40 because she exercises for 40 minutes or more.

<h3>How can this situation be represented?</h3>

This situation can be represented with an inequality. An inequality is an expression that is used to represent variables. This type of expression uses symbols such as >, < or ≥ to represent different variable values.

<h3>What inequality is represented in this situation?</h3>

  • The expression is: t ≥ 40

The inequality represented in this situation implies that Kira exercises is equal or more time than 40 minutes every day.

The table shows the height of a soccer ball that has been kicked from the ground over time. (For reference: h(t) = 144 – 16t2) T
natta225 [31]
The answer is:

The rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.


Here's how:

The rate of change of the function is defined and calculated as (refer to the statement beloew):

r = [change in height] / {change in time]


For the Table:

refer to the attached picture.

The table shows the calculations for the rate of change (r) for each interval given.


And for the Conclusion,

Refer to the table and notice that in the third ans fifth columns show that:

The rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.

The vertices of a triangle are A(1, –9), B(0, –3), C(–4, –5). Fine the length of each side. What type of triangle is triangle AB
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

AB = √37

BC = 2√5

AC = √41

Type: SCALENE TRIANGLE

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates

A(1, –9), B(0, –3), C(–4, –5)

We are to find the length of each sides first. Using the formula for calculating the distance between two points, we will have;

For A(1, –9) and B(0, –3)

AB = √(-3+9)²+(0-1)²

AB = √6²+(-1)²

AB = √36+1

AB = √37

For coordinates B(0, –3) and C(–4, –5)

BC = √(-5+3)²+(-4-0)²

BC= √(-2)²+(-4)²

BC = √4+16

BC = √20

BC = 2√5

For coordinates  A(1, –9), C(–4, –5)

AC = √(-5+9)²+(-4-1)²

AC= √(4)²+(-5)²

AC = √16+25

AC = √41

<em>Since the sides of the triangles are all different, hence the triangle is a SCALENE triangle</em>
