700a+1200r=1000000 (then plug in the a)
700(1000) +1200r=1000000 (simplify)
700000+1200r=1000000 (subtract 700000 from both sides)
1200r=300000 (divide by 1200 on both sides)
r=250
250 pounds
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Because this quadratic equation would have the curve-down form of:

where a and b are positive coefficient.
If we let the peak (250 ft) of the curve be at x = 0. Then


Also at the begins and ends, thats where y = 0, the 2 points are separated by 100 ft. So let the begin at -50 ft and the end at 50ft. We have



Therefore, the model quadratic equation of our path would be

Answer:
a) distance covered by hare d1 = 8t
b) distance covered by tortoise d2 = 5t + 550
c) ∆d = 550 - 3t
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Speed of hare u = 8m/s
Speed of tortoise v = 5 m/s
Initial distance of tortoise d0 = 550 m
a) using the equation of motion;
distance covered = speed × time + initial distance
d = vt + d0
For hare;
d0 = 0
Substituting the values;
d1 = 8t + 0
d1 = 8t
b)using the equation of motion;
distance covered = speed × time + initial distance
d2 = vt + d0
For tortoise;
d0 = 550m
Substituting the values;
d2 = 5t + 550
d2 = 5t + 550 m
c) the number of meters the tortoise is ahead of the hare.
∆d = distance covered by tortoise - distance covered by hare
∆d = d2 - d1
Substituting the values;
∆d = (5t + 550) - 8t
∆d = 550 - 3t
X = original amount of water
x - 8(6) = 132
x - 48 = 132
x = 132 + 48
x = 180...it originally contained 180 gallons
