Answer:

Bus = 16 Tourists and Taxi = 4 Tourists

Total = 20 Tourists

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

  • Given, 80% of the tourists in a group took a bus and 20% took a taxi. Thus the Ratio of Tourists Travel by Bus toTaxi is 4x:1x.
  • The bus fare per person is 40% less than the taxi fare per person. And Also Given that the bus fare per person is $3 Thus, The Taxi fare per person would be $5.

All together they paid $68 for the tour transportation.

  • 4x × 3 + x × 5 = 68
  • 12x × 5x = 68
  • 17x =68
  • x=4

And, the Ratio of Tourists Travels by Bus toTaxi is 4x:1x . So,the Tourists Travel by Bus to Taxi is 16 and 4 Respectively . Total = 20 Tourists are in the Group.

If f(x)= x*2 +3 and g(x) = 4x + 1, what is f(g(2))?
enot [183]

Answer:

f(g(2))=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

f(x)= x*2 +3

g(x) = 4x + 1

Step two

Let us find g(2) first then we proceed to find f(g(2))

g(2)=4(2) +1

g(2)=8+1

g(2)=9

Since g(2)=9

f(g(2))=x*2 +3

f(g(2))=9*2 +3

f(g(2))=81+3

f(g(2))=84

for a quadratic equation function that models the height above ground of a projectile, how do you determine the maximum height,
kolbaska11 [484]

Problem

For a quadratic equation function that models the height above ground of a projectile, how do you determine the maximum height, y, and time, x , when the projectile reaches the ground

Solution

We know that the x coordinate of a quadratic function is given by:

Vx= -b/2a

And the y coordinate correspond to the maximum value of y.

Then the best options are C and D but the best option is:

D) The maximum height is a y coordinate of the vertex of the quadratic function, which occurs when x = -b/2a

The projectile reaches the ground when the height is zero. The time when this occurs is the x-intercept of the zero of the function that is farthest to the right.​
