8x² - 4 = 28
8x² = 28 + 4
8x² = 32
x² = 32/8
x² = 4

A)
well, we know the elevator's rate is -20 f/s, ok, so every second, is dropping 20 feet, therefore, "y" is "distance from the ground floor", so when y = 0, meaning the distance to the ground floor is 0, so you ARE at the ground floor then.
and "x" is how many seconds you've been in the elevator.
now, she got in the elevator for 6 seconds, so, the elevator went down by 20 * 6, or 120 feet down, reason why the slope is negative, when she stopped, she was 350 feet away from the ground floor still though.
if the elevator went down 120 feet, and she's still 350 feet from the ground floor, that means she boarded the elevator at 120 + 350 feet, or 470 feet.
b)
Answer:
y= -2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
You have use to slope intercept and formula to get the answer.
Answer:
$.65 (sixty five cents)
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so if it leaks out a pint every hour, and a gallon is 8 pints, it will take 8 hours to leak out 1 gallon. Since there are 24 hours in a day, it would leak out 3 gallons every day. Now, assuming the month we are talking about is 31 days, then we multiply 31 with 3, giving us 93 gallons in a month.
Do you need help with the third too?
