Snow Dome Ski Resort has 65 inches of snow. It is currently snowing there at a rate of 1 inch per hour. Mt. Winterpark Ski Resor

t has 74 inches of snow. Currently it is snowing there at a rate of ½ inch per hour.
a) Write equations that show the amount of snow at each resort as a function of the number of hours of snow.

b) If the snow continues at this rate, when will Snow Dome have more snow than Mt. Winterpark? Show your solution process clearly.

Answer:

(a)

Snow Dome Ski: y = 65 + t

Mt. Winterpark: y = 74 + ½t

(b) Hours greater than 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Snow Dome Ski

Base Snow = 65in

Rate = 1 in per hour

Mt. Winterpark

Base Snow = 74 in

Rate = ½ in per hour

Solving (a): Equation for both

To determine the amount of snow (y) at time (t) for any of the two, we make use of:

y = Base Snow + Rate * t

For Snow Dome Ski:

y = 65 + 1 * t

y = 65 + t

For Mt. Winterpark

y = 74 + ½ * t

y = 74 + ½t

Solving (b): When snow dome will have more snow.

To solve this, we set the following inequality

Snow Dome Ski > Mt. Winterpark

This gives:

65 + t > 74 + ½t

Collect Like Terms

t - ½t > 74 - 65

½t > 9

Multiply both sides by 2

t > 18

This implies that the snow at Snow Dome Ski will be more than the snow at Mt. Winterpark after 18 hours.

After 18 hours means, hours greater than 18 which could be 19, 20, 21.....

The image of the point (-6, -2) under a translation is (-4,2). Find the coordinates of the image of the point (-3, 4) under the
QveST [7]

ANSWER

(-1, 8)

EXPLANATION

First we have to find the rule for this translation.

The image of the x-coordinate of the given point is 2 untis more than the point, so the rule for the horizontal translation is to add 2.

The image of the y-coordinate of the given point is 4 units more than the point, so the rule for the vertical translation is to add 4:

(x,y)\rightarrow(x+2,y+4)

Therefore, the image of point (-3, 4) under the same translation is:

(-3,4)\rightarrow(-3+2,4+4)=(-1,8)

The coordinate plane below represents a city. Points A through F are schools in the city.
astra-53 [7]
Part A:
<span>a system of inequalities that only contain points D and E in the overlapping shaded regions is
5y + 2x > 12
2y - x < 12

Part B:
To verify that points D and E are solutions to the system of inequalities, we plug in the coordinate points of points D and E into the system of ineaqualities.

Part C:
</span>To <span>identify the schools that Timothy is allowed to attend we plug in the coordinate values of the points to see which satisfies the inequality y < 3x - 3. Thus Timothy is allowed to attend schools C and F.</span>
