Answer:

Option D: y-intercept is the volume of water in the tank before the faucet is turned on.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the volume of water in a tank is modeled by the function:

y = 1.15x³ – 0.1x² + 2

where:

x is the number of minutes after the faucet filling the tank is turned on

Now, the y-intercept is usually at the point where x = 0.

Thus, if x = 0 minutes, it means the faucet filling the tank is not yet turned on since x is the number of minutes after the faucet is turned on.

Thus, y-intercept is the volume of water in the tank before the faucet is turned on.

A 26' Long painting is how many yards Long
Alenkinab [10]
In one foot, there are 0.33 yards.
Therefore, you need to multiply 26 by 0.33
20x0.33= 6.6
6x0.33= 1.98 yards.
6.6+1.98= 8.58
Therefore, in a 26' long painting, there are 8.58 yards
Hope this helps :)

Prove that:<br><br>cos20°cos40°cos80°=1/8​
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the double angle identity for sine

sin2x = 2sinxcosx

Consider left side

cos20°cos40°cos80°

= \frac{1}{2sin20} (2sin20°cos20°)cos40°cos80°

= \frac{1}{4sin20} (2sin40°cos40°)cos80°

= \frac{1}{4sin20} (sin80°cos80° )

= \frac{1}{8sin20} (2sin80°cos80° )

= \frac{1}{8sin20} . sin160°

= \frac{1}{8sin20} . sin(180 - 20)°

= \frac{1}{8sin20} . sin20°

= \frac{1}{8} = right side , thus proven

The Cunninghams are moving across the country. Mr. Cunningham leaves 3 hours before Mrs. Cunningham. If he averages 40mph and sh
svp [43]
Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

now, if say, by the time they meet, Mr Cunningham has travelled "d" miles, that means Mrs Cunningham must also had travelled "d" miles as well.

However, he left 3 hours earlier, so by the time he travelled "d" miles, and took say "t" hours, for her it took 3 hour less, because she started driving 3 hours later, so, she's been on the road 3 hours less than Mr Cunningham, so by the time they meet, Mrs Cunningham has travelled then "t - 3" hours.

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\&#10;&------&------&------\\&#10;\textit{Mr Cunningham}&d&40&t\\&#10;\textit{Mrs Cunningham}&d&80&t-3&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;\boxed{d}=40t\\&#10;d=80(t-3)\\&#10;----------\\&#10;\boxed{40t}=80(t-3)&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{40t}{80}=t-3\implies \cfrac{t}{2}=t-3\implies t=2t-6\implies 6=2t-t&#10;\\\\\\&#10;6=t

In Exercise sketch the graph of the function.<br> f(x) = ex + 3
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

f(x) = e^x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following function in the question:

f(x) = e^x + 3

We have to graph this function.

Properties of given function are:

  • e is a constant and have a value of e = 2.718281828....
  • The function does not pass through origin
  • At x = 0, f(x) = 4
  • The domain for the given function is all real numbers.
  • The range of the given function is (3, \infty)

The attached image shows the graph for given function.
