an airplane begins to descend for a landing. the elevation g (in feet) of the airplane is modeled by the function: g(t)= 4800-30

0t, where t is the time (in minutes) since the airplane began to descend. what is the y- intercept?

Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The y-intercept in this case is 4800

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line graph is ;

y = mx + c

with respect to the given equation in the question, the y-intercept in this case is 4,800

In this case the y-intercept represent the height from which the plane starts to descend

The top of a mountain is 2,450 feet above sea level a shipwreck was discover 310 feet below sea level what is the distance betwe
arlik [135]

Answer:

d=2,760\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the height of the top of a mountain above sea level

y ----> the deep of a shipwreck below the sea level

we know that

The sea level represent the height equal to zero

In this problem we have

x=2,450\ ft ---> is positive because is above sea level

y=-310\ ft ---> is negative because is below sea level

To find out the distance between the mountain top and the ship wreck, determine the absolute value of the difference between the two values

d=\left|x-y\right|

substitute the values

d=\left|2,450-(-310)\right|

d=\left|2,450+310\right|

d=\left|2,760\right|

d=2,760\ ft

Suppose a die is tossed 5 times. what is the probability of getting exactly 2 fours?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of obtaining a number that is four = ¹/₆

The probability of obtaining a non 4 number = 1 - ¹/₆ = ⁵/₆

The number of ways 2 fours can be arrange in five numbers = ⁵C₂ = 10 ways

If the die is tossed five times, the probability of the events is calculated as;

P = 10 x (¹/₆)² x (⁵/₆)³

P = 10 x (¹/₃₆) x  (¹²⁵/₂₁₆)

P = 10 x 0.02778 x 0.5787

P = 0.16

Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 fours is 0.16

If t varies 1/s and t=2 when s=60 find the relationship between t and s, b, find the value of t when s=90 c, find s when t=2,1/2
suter [353]

Answer:

t = k \frac{1}{s}  \\ 2 = k. \frac{1}{60} \\ k = 120 \\ k \:  \: is \: constant \: of \: variation \\ relationship \: is  \\ t =  \frac{120}{s} . \\ when \: s \:  = 90 \\ t =  \frac{120}{90}  \\ t =  \frac{4}{3}  \\ when \: t = 2 \frac{1}{2}  \\ s =  \frac{120}{2 \frac{1}{2} }  \\ s = 48

Find the minimum point for the function f(x) = |2x - 1| (0, ½) (½, 0) (0, -½) (-½, 0)
torisob [31]
Minimum point of an absolute value function is when f(x) = 0
0 = <span>|2x - 1|
2x</span> - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2

Minimum point is (1/2, 0)

How do you find the slope of a point
Hoochie [10]
A point doesn't have slope. Once you have TWO points, then the line between them has a slope. The slope is (how far the line rises from one point to the other) divided by (the level distance between them).
