Answer: - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -5x^2 - x + 20

To find f(3), we simply put x = 3 and then simplify

f(3) = - 5(3)^2 - 3 + 20

= -5(9) - 3 + 20

= -45 - 3 + 20

= -48 +20

= -28

f(3) = -28

F(x) = -5x^2 - x + 20;

f(3) = -5*3^2 - 3 + 20 = -5*9 - 3 + 20 = -45 - 3 + 20 = -28;

Charlie is standing 45 feet from the base of 100 foot tall tree. What is the angle of elevation from him to the kite stuck on to
galben [10]
Hey. Let me help you on this one.

In order for us to solve this problem easier, let's break it apart. We can also graph the triangle so we get visual of this problem.

I drew a quick graph for you to easier understand this question. As you can see, Charlie is standing below the tree 45 feet from it, and we need to find the unknown angle measure.

Let's form a SOHCAHTOA function which you have probably already learned in your Geometry course.

First of all let's identify our sides. The side opposite of the right triangle is a Hypotenuse, and the side that's 45 feet is adjacent, since it's adjacent to the unknown angle.

We know that we need to use Cos (Cosine) with negative power to it in order to solve this question, since we are looking for the unknown angle measure.

Let's form the function which Cos, Hypotenuse, and Adjacent side.

Cos^{-1} =45/100

Now, let's solve the left part of this function


Cos^{-1} =0.45

Awesome. You will need to use your calculator for this part. Find the value of 0.45 when negative Cosine is used on it.

Cos^{-1} =0.45
63.25631605

Awesome. Let's round this number to the closest tenth

63.3 is the rounded value we have discussed below.

Answer: 63.3 degrees is the unknown measure of the angle

At a bargain store, Tanya bought 4 items that each cost the same amount. Tony bought 5 items that each cost the same amount, but
Alex_Xolod [135]

If x is the amount that Tanya paid for each item, then Tony's items would be x-2.25. So:

3x=4(x-2.25)

3x=4x-9

x=9

x-2.25=6.75

Tanya spent $9 on each item; Tony spent $6.75 on each of his items. ☺☺☺☺

Does the graph represent a function?
fomenos

Hey there!

No, the graph is not a function because it has two of the same inputs, (7, -6) and (7, -7).

It also can't be a linear function because the graphs are not pointed to form a straight line.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!
