At an ocean depth of 8 meters, a buoy bobs up and then down 5 meters from the ocean's depth. Sixteen seconds pass from the time
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

  See attached for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

We're going to plot sea level as y=0 and a depth of 8 meters as y=-8.

The problem statement tells you the initial point (x=0) is at normal ocean depth (y=-8), so the first point you put into your sine tool is ...

  (x, y) = (0, -8)

The buoy takes 16 seconds to go from a high point to a low point, so the time to the first high point is half that, or x=8 seconds. That high point is 5 meters above its average depth, so is at y=-3.

The second point you will put into your sine tool is ...

  (x, y) = (8, -3)

Write the equation of the line that
zlopas [31]

Answer:

y=-1/2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the slope of perpendicular line have negative reciprocal coefficients. In this case the coefficient is 2, The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2 and the negative of 1/2 is -1/2. So x will have a coefficient of -1/2.

Second, find the equation with a slope of -1/2 that passes through (-2,3). There are a few ways to do this. I like to plug the given x value into the expression -1/2x, so -1/2(-2) which equals positive 1 and for the line to pass through the point (-2,3) you need to add 2. So: y=-1/2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Tea = x
  • Coffee = x + 0.2

<u>Comparing the total cost, work out the value of x:</u>

  • 2x + x + 0.2 = 3.80
  • 3x = 3.60
  • x = 1.20
