Sheleah and her family are planning a trip from Los Angeles, California to Melbourne, Australia. While booking her family's plan

e tickets, she notices on the itinerary that the airline is offering a sixteen hour straight flight from Los Angeles to Melbourne on a Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental Jet. In an effort to learn more about the capabilities of the Jet, Sheleah does a little research and stumbles upon the following graph and facts about the Jet's gasoline consumption.
The Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental Jet can carry approximately 422,000 gallons of gasoline, making it possible for the jet to travel 14,430 kilometers before needing to refuel.

Use a linear model to predict the amount of gasoline that is present on the Jet after it has been in flight for 18 hours without stopping to refuel. In two or more complete sentences, explain your answer.

Answer:

26375

On the graph, it tells you how much fuel is left after 2 hours of the journey.

If we take 422,000 and subtract 369,250 from it we get 52,750. However, this is how much gas is used in 2 hours, so to find one hour we need to divide by 2, getting us 26,375.

Therefore, the Jet uses 26,375 gallons per hour during the 16 hour trip from Los Angeles, CA to Melbourne, Australia.

Through: (-3,0), perp. to y = 3x - 1
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given: </u>

line y=3x-1

point (-3,0)

<u>Write:</u> equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given and passes through the point (-3,0)

<u>Solution:</u>

The slope of the given line is m=3

If m_1 is the slope of perpendicular line, then

m\cdot m_1=-1\\ \\3m_1=-1\\ \\m_1=-\dfrac{1}{3}

So, the equation of the needed line is y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x+b.

Find b. This line passes through the point (-3,0), so its coordinates satisfy the equation:

0=-\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot (-3)+b\\ \\0=1+b\\ \\b=-1\\ \\y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-1

Find all the zeros of the function <br> g(x)=x^3-4x^2-x+22
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = x³ − 4x² − x + 22

This is a cubic equation, so it must have either 1 or 3 real roots.

Using rational root theorem, we can check if any of those real roots are rational.  Possible rational roots are ±1, ±2, ±11, and ±22.

g(-1) = 18

g(1) = 18

g(-2) = 0

g(2) = 12

g(-11) = 1782

g(11) = 858

g(-22) = -12540

g(22) = 8712

We know -2 is a root.  The other two roots are irrational.  To find them, we must find the other factor of g(x).  We can do this using long division, or we can factor using grouping.

g(x) = x³ − 4x² − 12x + 11x + 22

g(x) = x (x² − 4x − 12) + 11 (x + 2)

g(x) = x (x − 6) (x + 2) + 11 (x + 2)

g(x) = (x (x − 6) + 11) (x + 2)

g(x) = (x² − 6x + 11) (x + 2)

x² − 6x + 11 = 0

Quadratic formula:

x = [ 6 ± √(36 − 4(1)(11)) ] / 2

x = (6 ± 2i√8) / 2

x = 3 ± i√8

The three roots are x = -2, x = 3 − i√8, and x = 3 + i√8.

Can someone help me the 2nd problem I don’t understand it
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

So this means the bus B covered 390-120=270 miles when bus A has already reached 390 miles.

270 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So is A is going faster than B so A will reach the destination first.

When will A reach it's destination?

Let's find out.

To solve this problem, the following will come in handy:

Speed=distance/time or time*Speed=distance or time=distance/speed .

time=distance/speed

T_A=\frac{390}{S_A}

T_A=\frac{390}{65}

T_A=6

So it will take bus A 6 hours to cover the distance of 390 miles.

How much time would have it taken bus B to reach that same distance?

T_B=\frac{390}{45}

T_B=8.\overline{6}

So it would have taken bus B 8.\overline{6} hours to cover a distance of 390 miles.

So the time difference is 8.\overline{6}-6=2.\overline{6} hours.

It will take 2.\overline{6} more hours than bus A for bus B to complete a distance of 390 miles.

So bus B traveled 2.\overline{6} \cdot 45=120 miles (used the time*speed=distance) after bus A got to it's destination.

So this means the bus B covered 390-120=270 miles when bus A has already reached 390 miles.
