a) You are told the function is quadratic, so you can write cost (c) in terms of speed (s) as
... c = k·s² + m·s + n
Filling in the given values gives three equations in k, m, and n.
Subtracting each equation from the one after gives
Subtracting the first of these equations from the second gives
Using the next previous equation, we can find m.
Then from the first equation
[tex]28=100\cdot 0.01+10\cdot (-1)+n\\\\n=37[tex]
There are a variety of other ways the equation can be found or the system of equations solved. Any way you do it, you should end with
... c = 0.01s² - s + 37
b) At 150 kph, the cost is predicted to be
... c = 0.01·150² -150 +37 = 112 . . . cents/km
c) The graph shows you need to maintain speed between 40 and 60 kph to keep cost at or below 13 cents/km.
d) The graph has a minimum at 12 cents per km. This model predicts it is not possible to spend only 10 cents per km.
We will get the areas of each one of the given triangles:
7) A = 12.69 mm²
8) A = 19.21 in²
9) A = 16.81 yd²
<h3>How to get the area of the given triangles?</h3>
7) First, we have an equilateral triangle, where all the sides measure 5.4mm
For an equilateral triangle of side length S, the area is:
In this case, S = 5.4 mm, replacing we get:
8) Now we have two equal sides and one different. The general area of a triangle of base B and height H is:
A = B*H/2.
In this case, the base measures 3.4 in.
To get the height, let's divide the triangle into two right triangles, such that one cathetus is 3.4in/2 = 1.7 in.
The hypotenuse measures 5.9 in
And the other cathetus is the height of the triangle.
Then, by using the Pythagorean theorem, we see that the height is:
Then the area of this triangle is:
9) Here the base measures 8.2 yds, and the height 4.1 yds, so the area is just:
