What is a Altitude?

2 answers:

7 0

Altitude, like elevation, is the distance above sea level. Areas are often considered "high-altitude" if they reach at least 2,400 meters (8,000 feet) into the atmosphere. ... This is called indicated altitude, and is measured by an instrument called an altimeter. As altitude rises, air pressure drops.

Answer:

the height of an object or point in relation to sea level or ground level.

Explanation:

height above sea level

Although the term altitude is commonly used to mean the height above sea level of a location, in geography the term elevation is often preferred for this usage. Vertical distance measurements in the "down" direction are commonly referred to as depth.

What values of a and b would make the equation shown have infinitely many solutions? 3x=ax+b

Wittaler [7]

Infinitely many solutions means that you have the same thing on both sides of the equation no matter what value of x you plug in, right?

We just need both sides to be 3x then, correct?

If a were equal to 3 and b were equal to 0, we'd have

3x = (3)x + 0

Which is essentially 3x = 3x

So that means a = 3 and b = 0 must work!
Let's say x = 5

3(5) = 3(5) + 0

15 = 15 + 0

15 = 15

That means that a = 3 and b = 0 is your final answer :)

Determine whether the rule represents an exponential function. Explain why or why not.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Parent Function: $f(x)= a(b^{x})$

If we write out the equation:

$y = 6(5)^{x}$

Whenever we have an exponent of <em>x</em>, it is a exponential function. The 5 is simply the base of the exponent and the 6 means we are vertically stretching the graph by a factor of 6.

The table represents some points on the graph of a linear function.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

B. $-\frac{9}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change of y with respect to x, can be calculated using any two of the pairs of values of the table, say, (-2, 12) and (0, 3).

Rate of change = $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Let,

$(-2, 12) = (x_1, y_1)$

$(0, 3) = (x_2, y_2)$

Plug in the values

Rate of change = $\frac{3 - 12}{0 - (-2)} = \frac{-9}{2} = -\frac{9}{2}$

PLS HELP! GIVING BRAINLIST!

Answer:

We conclude that (4, 2) is NOT a solution to the system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

$y = x - 2$

$y = 3x + 4$

Important Tip:

In order to determine whether (4, 2) is a solution to the system of equations or not, we need to solve the system of equations.

Let us solve the system of equations using the elimination method.

$\begin{bmatrix}y=x-2\\ y=3x+4\end{bmatrix}$

Arrange equation variables for elimination

$\begin{bmatrix}y-x=-2\\ y-3x=4\end{bmatrix}$

Subtract the equations

$y-3x=4$

$-$

$\underline{y-x=-2}$

$-2x=6$

Now, solve -2x = 6 for x

$-2x=6$

Divide both sides by -2

$\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{6}{-2}$

Simplify

$x=-3$

For y - x = -2 plug in x = -3

$y-\left(-3\right)=-2$

$y+3=-2$

Subtract 3 from both sides

$y+3-3=-2-3$

Simplify

$y=-5$

The solution to the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-3, -5)

Checking the graph

From the graph, it is also clear that (4, 2) is NOT a solution to the system of equations because (-3, -5) is the only solution as we have found earlier.

Therefore, we conclude that (4, 2) is NOT a solution to the system of equations.
