Answer:

First set = 60 minutes

Second set = 66 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of third set = 71.28 minutes ;

Third set was 8% longer than second set ;

Length of second set = x

Third set = (100% + 8%) = 108% of second set

71.28 = 1.08 * x

71.28 = 1.08x

x = 71.28 / 1.08

x = 66

Hence, second set = 66 minutes

Second set was 10% longer than the first

(100 + 10)% of first set = second set

110% of first set = second set

Let first set = y

1.1 * y = 66

1.1y = 66

y = 66 / 1.1

y = 60

Hence, first set = 60 minutes

First set = 60 minutes

Second set = 66 minutes

A track-and-field athlete releases a javelin. The height of the javelin as a function of time is shown on the graph below. Use t

Georgia [21]

Part 1:

For this case we must see in the graph the axis of symmetry of the given parabola.
We have then that the axis of symmetry is the vertical line t = 2.
Answer:
The height of the javelin above the ground is symmetric about the line t = 2 seconds:

Part 2:

For this case, we must see the time t for which the javelin reaches a height of 20 feet for the first time.
We then have that when evaluating t = 1, the function is h (1) = 20. To do this, just look at the graph.
Then, we must observe the moment when it returns to be 20 feet above the ground.
For this, observing the graph we see that:
h (3) = 20 feet
Therefore, a height of 20 feet is again reached in 3 seconds.
Answer:
The javelin is 20 feet above the ground for the first time at t = 1 second and again at t = 3 seconds

Solve y=x^2 + 7 for x

crimeas [40]

Hello! To solve for x means to isolate x:

y = x^2 + 7
y - 7 = x^2
sqrt(y - 7) = x

Answer:
x = sqrt(y - 7)

Hope this helps!
