Answer:

equate f(x) to zero to find the time t

-16t² +13.4t +120 = 0

Using the quadratic formula

t = -b ± √b² - 4ac/2a

a = -16t b = 13.4 c = 120

t = -13.4±√(13.4)² - 4(-16)(120)/-32

= -13.4 ± √ 7859.56/-32

t = - 2.35 or t = 3.19

Since time is positive

t = 3.19s

Hope this helps.

Answer:

-16t² + 13.4t + 120

= ( t-3.189)(t+2.352)

t = 3.189s or t = -2.352s (ignore)

ignore -2.352s because time cannot be in negative form

Which statement can be proved true using the given theorem?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

BF = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

18/12 = 1.5 * 6 = 9

Since DE and BF are parallel and DB and EF are parallel, they comprise a parallelogram. This means that DB = EF

DB = EF = 9

24/1.5 = 16

DE = 16

BF = 16

Devin has $30 on his bus card. Every time he rides a bus, $1.20 is deducted from the value on his card. The amount if money he h
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

y = -1.2x + 30

x = 22

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Initially, Devin has $30.  Then every time he rides the bus, $1.20 is taken away:  y = 30 - 1.2x

Therefore, in slope-intercept form:  y = -1.2x + 30

If he has $3.60 on his card, then y = 3.60, so substitute this into the above equation and solve for x:

                                                  3.60 = -1.2x + 30

subtract 30 from both sides:  -26.4 = -1.2x

divide both sides by -1.2:             22 = x

Therefore Devin has ridden the bus 22 times if he has $3.60 on his card.

<u>Part B</u>

Rebecca:  y = -1.4x + 33

To determine how many rides on the bus Devin and Rebecca would need to take to have the same amount of value of their bus card, simply equate the equations and solve for x:

                                          Rebecca = Devin

                                                       y = y

                                         -1.4x + 33 = 30 - 1.2x

subtract 33 from both sides:   -1.4x = -3 - 1.2x

Add 1.2x to both sides:           -0.2x = -3

Divide both sides by -0.2:             x = 15

Therefore, Devin and Rebecca would both have to take 15 rides on the bus to have the same amount of value of their bus card.

Answer:

  11) C: (a, 4), (b, 3), (c, 2), (d, 1); V: (a, c), (b, d), (4, 2), (3, 1);

     AI: (c, 4), (d, 3); AE: (a, 2), (b, 1); SI: (c, 3), (d, 4); SE: (a, 1), (b, 2)

  12) : C: (a, y), (b, x), (c, w), (d, z); V:(a, c), (b, d), (w, y), (x, z);

     AI: (b, z), (c, y); AE: (a, w), (d, x); SI: (b, y), (c, z); SE: (a, x), (d, w)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a vocabulary question. It is intended to see if you understand the meaning of the names given to the different angle pairs in this geometry.

All of the pairs of angles filling the first 4 blanks (corresponding, vertical, alt. int., alt. ext.) are congruent pairs of angles. The pairs of angles filling the last two blanks (same-side ...) are supplementary angles (total 180°).

__

<em>Corresponding</em> angles lie in the same direction from the point of intersection. For example, the upper-left angles are corresponding.

<em>Vertical</em> angles are formed from opposite rays.

<em>Alternate</em> refers to angles on opposite sides of the transversal. (<em>Same-side </em>refers to angles on the same side of the transversal. Same-side angles are also called <em>consecutive</em> angles.)

<em>Interior</em> refers to angles that are between the parallel lines. <em>Exterior</em> refers to angles outside the parallel lines.

__

The figures are a bit fuzzy. We assume the angle designations are (CW around the intersection point from upper left, left group first) ...

  Figure 11) {a, b, c, d}, {4, 3, 2, 1}

  Figure 12) {d, c, b, a}, {z, w, x, y}

If this is not correct, you will need to make appropriate substitutions in the pairs given below.

__

11) Corresponding: (a, 4), (b, 3), (c, 2), (d, 1)

  Vertical: (a, c), (b, d), (4, 2), (3, 1)

  Alternate Interior: (c, 4), (d, 3)

  Alternate Exterior: (a, 2), (b, 1)

  Same-side Interior: (c, 3), (d, 4)

  Same-side Exterior: (a, 1), (b, 2)

__

12) Corresponding: (a, y), (b, x), (c, w), (d, z)

  Vertical: (a, c), (b, d), (w, y), (x, z)

  Alternate Interior: (b, z), (c, y)

  Alternate Exterior: (a, w), (d, x)

  Same-side Interior: (b, y), (c, z)

  Same-side Exterior: (a, x), (d, w)

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The vocabulary is used to cite various theorems supporting claims regarding angle relationships. In practice, when the lines are parallel, all obtuse angles related to a transversal are congruent, all acute angles are congruent, and the acute angles are supplementary to the obtuse angles. (If the angles are 90°, neither acute nor obtuse, then they are all congruent.)

Square lMNO is shown in the diagram below what are the coordinates of the midpoint of a diagonal LN
sashaice [31]

Answer:

The coordinates of the midpoint of LN are (-2\frac{1}{2},4\frac{1}{2})

answer (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the midpoint of a line

- The coordinates of the midpoint of a line whose endpoints are (x1 , y1)

 and (x2 , y2) are x=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},y=\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}

∵ LMNO is a square

∵ The coordinates of point L are (-6 , 1)

∵ The coordinates of point N are (1 , 8)

- Let the coordinates of point L are (x1 , y1) , the coordinates of point

 N are (x2 , y2) and the coordinates of the midpoint of LN are (x , y)

∴ x1 = -6 , x2 = 1 and y1 = 1 , y2 = 8

- Use the rule of the midpoint above to find the midpoint (x , y)

∵ x=\frac{-6+1}{2}=\frac{-5}{2}=-2\frac{1}{2}

∵ y=\frac{1+8}{2}=\frac{9}{4}=4\frac{1}{2}

∴ The coordinates of the midpoint are (-2\frac{1}{2},4\frac{1}{2})

* The coordinates of the midpoint of LN are (-2\frac{1}{2},4\frac{1}{2})
