We are given the relation between the height (in feet) and the distance (in miles) as follows:
y = sqrt(1.5x + (x/5280)^2).
We want to know the height (x) that makes the distance (y) = 10 miles
So, we will simply substitute in the above equation with y = 10 and calculate x as follows:
10 = sqrt(1.5x + (x/5280)^2)
we will square both sides to get rid of the root:
100 = 1.5x + (x/5280)^2
1.5x + (x/5280)^2 - 100 = 0
(x-66.11475)(x+7986.1147) = zero
either x = 66.11475 feet (accepted solution)
or x = -7986.1147 feet (rejected solution as no height is in negative)

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
43.82 mph
266.67 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
S = √30fl
S = speed of car
f = drag Coefficient
l = Length of skid mark
If f = 0.8 ; l = 80 feets
s = √30fl
s = √(30*0.8*80)
s = √1920
s = 43.817
s = 43.82 mph
B.)
s = 80 mph
f = 0.8
s = √30fl
80 = √30*0.8*l
80 = √24l
Square both sides
80² = 24l
6400 = 24l
l = 6400/24
l = 266.67 feets
Answer:
y = -1/3x + 12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Greetings!
"<span>The difference of six times a number and 7 is -49"...
In number and variables, this would be:
</span>

<span>
Add
7 to both sides.
</span>

<span>Simplify.
</span>

Divide both sides by
6.

Simplify.

Hope this helps.
