Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (x − 7) = −2

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2 *2/3 (x − 7) = −2*3/2

x-7 = -3

Add 7 to each side

x-7+7 = -3+7

x=4

Write a quadratic function, in standard form, that fits the set of points. Solve it as a system of three equations. (-4, 9), (0,
Tresset [83]

Answer:

\boxed{y=2x^2+4x-7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the quadratic function be

y=ax^2+bx+c


We substitute (-4,9) into the equation to obtain;


9=a(-4)^2+b(-4)+c


\Rightarrow 9=16a-4b+c---(1)


We substitute (0,-7) to obtain;


-7=a(0)^2+b(0)^2+c


\Rightarrow c=-7---(2)


We finally substitute (1,-1) to obtain;


-1=a(1)^2+b(1)^2+c


\Rightarrow -1=a+b+c---(3)


We put equation (2) into equation (1) to get;


9=16a-4b-7


16a-4b=16


\Rightarrow 4a-b=4---(4)


\Rightarrow -1=a+b-7


\Rightarrow a+b=6---(5)


We add equation (4) and (5) to get;

4a+a=6+4



\Rightarrow 5a=10



\Rightarrow a=2


We put a=2 into equation (5) to get;


2+b=6


\Rightarrow b=6-2


\Rightarrow b=4


The reqiured quadratic function is

y=2x^2+4x-7

A post office charges 50k for a telegram of 15 words or less it charges an extra 3k for every word above 15 words find the cost
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

95k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

15 words or less = 50k

Every word above 15 = additional 3k

The cost of 30 words :

First 15 words = 50 k

Number of additional words = (30 - 15) = 15 words

Cost of every additional word = 3 k

Cost of 15 additional word = 15 * 3 = 45k

Total cost of 30 words :

50k + 45k = 95k

A rock is thrown into the air. The height of the rock is modeled by s(t) = −16tଶ + 64t + 80 feet for t ≥ 0 seconds. The rock hit
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

144 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Look on s(t) like quadratic function. We need to find maximum of the function using 1st diferetioal:

s(t)=-16t^2+64t+80

s’(t)=-32t+64

S’(t)=0 if t=2

For t>2, s’(t)<0

For t<2, s’(t)>0. So the maximum od function is in the point 2.

S(2)=-16*4+64*2+80=-64+128+80=144
