Answer:

(0.118, 4.882)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a motorist drives for m hours at 120km/hr, then the Distance of the motorist is expressed as;

​Distance = Speed * time

​da = 120m

If he drives n hours at 18km/hr;

db = 18 * n

db = 18n

Speed of the motorist altogether is expressed as;

Speed =78km/5hrs

Speed = 15.6km/hr

SInce the total distnce is 78km

120m + 18n = 78 ....1 ..... * 1

If total time is 5hrs

m + n = 5....2 ...*18

Solve simultaneously

120m + 18n = 78

18m + 18n = 90

Subtract

120m - 18m = 78-90

102m = -12

m = 0.118 hrs

m =

Since m + n = 5

n = 5 - m

= 5 - 12/102

n = 4.882

Hence (m,n) is (0.118, 4.882)

All Parent functions have both x- intercepts and y-intercepts EXCEPT. I. Linear II. Absolute Value III.Quadratic IV. Cubic V.Squ
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Reciprocal, Exponential and Logarithmic.

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept is the value of x where y value is 0.

y intercept is the value of y where x value is 0.

Let us have a look at the possibility for <em>each parent function </em>as given.

I. Linear

y =x

When x = 0, y = 0 and

When y = 0, x = 0

Therefore, both x and y intercept exist.

II. Absolute value

y =|x|

When x = 0, y = 0 and

When y = 0, x = 0

Therefore, both x and y intercept exist.

III. Quadratic

y =x^{2}

When x = 0, y = 0 and

When y = 0, x = 0

Therefore, both x and y intercept exist.

IV. Cubic

y =x^3

When x = 0, y = 0 and

When y = 0, x = 0

Therefore, both x and y intercept exist.

V. Square root

y =\sqrt x

When x = 0, y = 0 and

When y = 0, x = 0

Therefore, both x and y intercept exist.

VI. Cube root

y =\sqrt[3]x

When x = 0, y = 0 and

When y = 0, x = 0

Therefore, both x and y intercept exist.

VII. Reciprocal

y =\dfrac{1}x

When x = 0, y \rightarrow \infty

Therefore, both x and y intercept do not exist.

VIII. Exponential

y =b^x

where b is any base:

When x = 0, y =1 therefore y intercept exists.

When we put y = 0, which is not possible

Therefore, both x and y intercept do not exist.

IX. Logarithmic

y =logx

When x = 0, y \rightarrow not defined

Therefore, both x and y intercept do not exist.

SashulF [63]
Answer: B

Explanation:

The line go down one and turn right 5

So slope = -1/5x

And the y intercept is at -4

So B is the correct answer

Find the volume of the pyramid
Vilka [71]

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The volume of the right-triangular pyramid is 1.008 m³.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

The volume of a right-triangle pyramid is one-third of the product of its base area and its height. Therefore, the volume is,

Volume = (1/3) × 0.5 × 1.4 × 1.8 × 2.4

             = 1.008 m³

Hence, the volume of the right-triangular pyramid is 1.008 m³.
