Answer:

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-2=-9+7x

Subtract 7x from both sides.

x-2=-9

Add 2 to both sides.

x=-7

dale is driving to Miami. suppose that the distance (in miles) is a linear function of his total driving time (in minutes). dale
nexus9112 [7]
Considering there is a function (relationship) and that it is linear, the distance will change proportionally to time constantly. In other words, we are taking the speed to be constant throughout the journey.
If we let:
t = time (min's) driving
d = distance (miles) from destination
Then we can represent the above information as:
t = 40: d = 59
t = 52: d = 50
If we think of this as a graph, we can think of the x-axis representing time and the y-axis representing the distance to the destination. Being linear, the function will be a line, i.e. it will have a constant gradient. If you were plot the two points inferred from the information and connect the two dots, you will get a declining line (one with a negative gradient) representing the inversely proportional relationship or equally, the negative correlation between the time driving and the distance to the destination. The equation of this line will be the linear function that relates time and the distance to the destination. To find this linear function, we do as follows:

Find the gradient (m) of the line:
m = Δy/Δx
In this case, the x-values are t-values and our y-values are d-values, so:
Δy = Δd
= 50 - 59
= -9
Δx = Δt
= 52 - 40
= 12
m = -9/12 = -3/4
Note: m is equivalent to speed with units: d/t

Use formula to find function and rearrange to give it in the desired format:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
d - 50 = -3/4(t - 52)
4d - 200 = -3t + 156
4d + 3t - 356 = 0

Let t = 70 to find d at the time:
4d + 3(70) - 356 = 0
4d + 210 - 356 = 0
4d - 146 = 0
4d = 146
d = 73/2 = 36.5 miles

So after 70 min's of driving, Dale will be 36.5 miles from his destination.

1. The equation y=x^2-9x+20 models the roller coasters path over time. The variable y represents height (in feet) above or below
azamat

Answer:

1) the factored form is  y= ( x-5 ) ( x+4 )

2) the vertex is (4.5, -0.25)

3) the y intercept is when x equals 0 so it is at (0,20)

4) it opens upward and the vertex is (4.5, -0.25) the x intercepts are (4,0) and (5,0) and the y intercept is  (0,20)

5)

a. it dips  between 4 seconds and 5 seconds so the x intercepts are (4,0) and (5,0)

b. it is taken at the vertex aka the lowest point so the height is -0.25

A boundary stripe 6 in. wide is painted around a rectangle whose dimensions are 120 ft by 230 ft. Use differentials to approxima
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

350 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Width of strip=6 in

Dimension of rectangle=20 ft\times 230 ft

We know that

Area  of rectangle ,A=xy

Differentiate

dA=\frac{\partial A}{\partial x}x+\frac{\partial A}{\partial y}y

We have \frac{\partial A}{\partial x}=y=230 ft

\frac{\partial A}{\partial y}=x=120

dx=\frac{12}{12}=1 ft

1 ft=12 in

Because 6 in added in both side of breadth

dy=\frac{12}{12}=1 ft

Because 6 in added on both sides of length of rectangle

Substitute the values

dA=230\times 1+120\times 1=350 ft^2

Hence, the number of square feet of paint in the strip=350 square feet

suppose Tomas buys a total of 30 baseball and football cards in week 5 . how many of each would he have to buy to keep the same
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

  • 18 baseball cards
  • 12 football cards

Step-by-step explanation:

The only relationship shown in the table is in week 1, where the ratio of baseball to football cards is ...

  baseball : football = 9 : 6

In week 1, the total of these numbers is 15. You want the total in week 5 to be 30, double the total in week 1. So, Thomas needs to purchase double the numbers he purchased in week 1:

  • 18 baseball cards
  • 12 football cards

_____

<em>Comment on the attachment</em>

This table came from another question you posted, a question with no content other than the table. The blue numbers are blanks in the original table that have been filled in so as to keep the same 3:2 proportion in each week. They appear to have no bearing on this question.
