Julie is tracking the growth of a plant for a science project. The height of the plant on the 2nd day she measured was 8 inches

and on the 7th day it was 20.5 inches. Assume the relationship is linear

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship is linear, so the plant grows the same amount each day.

The height on the 2nd day was 8 inches:

h₂ = 8

The height on the 7th day was 20.5 inches:

h₇ = h₂ + (7-2)d = 8 + 5d = 20.5

d = 2.5

The plant grows 2.5 inches each day.

Eben, an alien from the planet Tellurango, kicks a football from field level. The equation for the football’s height in meters,
Luden [163]

<span>The maxima of a differential equation can be obtained by getting the 1st derivate dx/dy and equating it to 0.</span>

<span>Given the equation h = - 2 t^2 + 12 t       , taking the 1st derivative result in:</span>

dh = - 4 t dt + 12 dt

<span>dh / dt = 0 = - 4 t + 12   calculating for t:</span>

t = -12 / - 4

t = 3 s

Therefore the maximum height obtained is calculated by plugging in the value of t in the given equation.

h = -2 (3)^2 + 12 (3)

h = 18 m

This problem can also be solved graphically by plotting t (x-axis) against h (y-axis). Then assigning values to t and calculate for h and plot it in the graph to see the point in which the peak is obtained. Therefore the answer to this is:

<span>The ball reaches a maximum height of 18 meters. The maximum of h(t) can be found both graphically or algebraically, and lies at (3,18). The x-coordinate, 3, is the time in seconds it takes the ball to reach maximum height, and the y-coordinate, 18, is the max height in meters.</span>

Select interior, exterior, or on the circle (x - 5) 2 + (y + 3) 2 = 25 for the following point. (2, 3)
lozanna [386]
Standard equation of a circle: <em>(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²</em> where <em>(h, k)</em> is the center and <em>r </em>is the radius. In the case of our equation here, <em>(x-5)² + (y+3)² = 25</em>, we can conclude that our circle has a center at (5, -3) and a radius of 5 units.

We can use the distance formula with the center (5, -3) and our point (2, 3) to see how far away they are...if the distance between them is less than the radius of the circle, it is on the interior. If it's equal, it's on the circle. If it's greater, it's on the exterior.

Distance = \sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}

Distance = \sqrt{(-3-3)^2+(5-2)^2}

Distance = \sqrt{(-6)^2+3^2}

Distance = \sqrt{36+9}

Distance = \sqrt{45}\approx6.7082

6.7082>5,\ so\ (2,3)\ is\ on\ the\ \boxed{exterior}
