Answer:

50th term is 164

Step-by-step explanation:

a(n) = 17 + 3(n - 1)

a(50) = 17 + 3(50-1)

a(50) = 17 + 3(49)

a(50) = 17 + 147

a(50) = 164

A long jumper lifts off 3 m after starting his run, and lands 6 m later. When he is 8 m from the start line, he is 5 cm above an

slega [8]

Answer:

The equation of the parabola that models the path of the long jumper through the air is $y = -x^{2}+12\cdot x -27$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we know that parabolas are second-order polynomials and every second-order polynomials, also known as quadratic functions, can be constructed by knowing three different points of the curve. The standard form of the parabola is:

$y = a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c$

Where:

$x$ - Horizontal distance from the start line, measured in meters.

$y$ - Height of the long jumper, measured in meters.

$a$ , $b$ , $c$ - Polynomial constants, measured in $\frac{1}{m}$ , dimensionless and meters, respectively.

If we know that $(x_{1},y_{1}) = (3\,m, 0\,m)$ , $(x_{2},y_{2}) = (8\,m, 0.05\,m)$ and $(x_{3}, y_{3}) = (9\,m, 0\,m)$ , this system of linear equations is presented below:

$9\cdot a + 3\cdot b + c = 0$ (Eq. 1)

$81\cdot a + 9\cdot b + c = 0$ (Eq. 2)

$64\cdot a + 8\cdot b + c = 0.05$ (Eq. 3)

The coefficients of the polynomial are, respectively:

$a = -\frac{1}{100}$ , $b = \frac{3}{25}$ , $c = -\frac{27}{100}$

The equation of the parabola that models the path of the long jumper through the air is $y' = -\frac{1}{100}\cdot x^{2}+\frac{3}{25}\cdot x -\frac{27}{100}$ .

But we need $y$ measured in centimeters, then, we use the following conversion:

$y = 100\cdot y'$

Then, we get that:

$y = -x^{2}+12\cdot x -27$

Where $x$ and $y$ are measured in meters and centimeters, respectively.

The equation of the parabola that models the path of the long jumper through the air is $y = -x^{2}+12\cdot x -27$ .

Hey! Can someone check my answers?

The greatest common factor is the biggest number taken from the values.

Q1. The answer is <span>A. 5y^6
</span>
$20 y^{9} +5 y^{6}= 4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}$
Since $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ , then $x^{9}= x^{3}* x^{6}$

Back to our expression:
$4*5 y^{9}+5 y^{6}=4*5 y^{3}*y^{6}+5 y^{6}=4 y^{3}*5y ^{6}+ 5y ^{6}*1=5 y^{6} (4y ^{3} +1)$
The greatest common factor is thus $5 y^{6}$

Q2. The answer is <span>D. 12xy^2
</span>
$12x y^{5}+60 x^{4} y^{2} -24 x^{3} y^{3}=12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}$
We will use the rule $x^{a}* x^{b} =x^{a+b}$ to factorise the exponents:
$12x y^{5}+5*12 x^{4} y^{2} -2*12 x^{3} y^{3}= \\ =12x*y^{2}*y^{3}+5*12*x* x^{3} *y^{2}-2*12x* x^{2} *y*y^{2}= \\ =12xy^{2}*y^{3}+12xy^{2}*5 x^{3} -12xy^{2}*2 x^{2} y= \\ =12xy^{2}(y^{3}+5 x^{3}-2 x^{2} y)$
The greatest common factor is thus $12xy^{2}$
