Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
23-3= 4x or 20
that means 4x is equal to 20
20 divided by 4 is 5
so x is equal to 5
1. To find the vertex of a parabolla whose equation is written in the standard form, you must apply the following proccedure:
2. You have:
y=-0.18x²+4.4x-12
a=-0.18
b=4.4
3. You must apply the following formula:
<span>
x=-b/2a
x=-4.4/2(-0.18)
x=-4.4/-0.36
x=12.22
4. When you susbtitute x=12.22 into the equation </span>y=-0.18x²+4.4x-12, you obtain:
y=-0.18x²+4.4x-12
y=-0.18(12.22)²<span>+4.4(12.22)-12
</span> y=14.88 feet
5. The answer is: The maximum height of the tunnel is <span>14.88 feet</span>
Base x Height / 2 = Area of triangle.
Answer:
It takes at least 7 months for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter than the original weight.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use exponential decay formula:
A = P (1-r)t
A = amount decreased to
P = original amount
r = rate of decrease
t = time
6 ≥ 12 (1-0.10)t divide both sides by 12
0.5 ≥ (0.9)t take log of both sides
log (0.5) ≥ log (0.9)t power rule of logs lets the exponent t drop to front of log to become a factor
log (0.5) ≥ t log(0.9) divide both sides by log(0.9) which is negative so reverse the inequality sign
log (0.5) / log (0.9) ≤ t use calculator
6.57 ≤ t
It takes at least 7 months for the cat to be at least 6 kg lighter that original weight.
check:
12 (0.9)7≈ 5.73
12 (0.9)6 ≈ 6.37
