Doctors have two methods of calculating maximum heart rate. With the first method, maximum heart rate, y, in beats per minute is

y = 220 − x, where x is the person's age. Maximum heart rate with the second method is shown in the table.
Age, x 20 30 40 50 60
Heart rate (bpm), y 194 187 180 173 166


Which method gives the greater maximum heart rate for a 90−year-old?

Answer:

The second method gives the greater heart rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the second method, the age and heart rate(bpm) are in a linear relationship.

Therefore, the maximum heart rate for a 90-year-old person in the second method is = 194 - (194 - 187)7 = 145 bpm.

{Since, the maximum heart rate in the second method decreases in an A.P. having value at the age of 20 is 194 and it decreases by 7 bpm per 10 years}

Now, in the first method, the maximum heart rate for 90-year-old person is y = 220 - 90 = 130 bpm.

Therefore, the second method gives a greater heart rate. (Answer)

Answer:

<h2>The second method (table) gives the greater heart rate.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

y=220-x

Where x is age.

Now, for x=90, we have

y=220-90=130

The equation gives 130 bpm for a 90-year-old patient.

Now, if we observe the given table, we would find a pattern there. The heart rate decreases by 7 while ages decreases by 10, so

For 60 y/o we have 166 bpm.

For 70 y/o we have 159 bpm.

For 80 y/o we have 152 bpm.

For 90 y/o we have 145 bpm.

If we compare, the second method (table) gives the greater heart rate.

Solve x2+12x=-11 by completing the square . Which is the the solution set of the equation?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

{- 11, - 1 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the coefficient of the x² term is 1 , to complete the square

add (half the coefficient of the x-term )² to both sides

x² + 2(6)x + 36 = - 11 + 36 ← complete the square on the left side

(x + 6)² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides

\sqrt{(x+6)^2} = ± \sqrt{25}

x + 6 = ± 5 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

x = - 6 ± 5

x = - 6 + 5 = - 1 or x = - 6 - 5 = - 11

Find k given that these three points are collinear.<br> A(0, -2), B(2, 0), and C(5, k)
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

k = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are collinear the slope of AB = the slope of BC, so :-

(0- (-2)) / (2 - 0) = (k - 0) / (5 - 2)

2/2 = k/3

1 = k/3

k = 3.
