The number of adults at an amusement park, measured in hundreds of people, is represented by the function a(w)=−0.4w^2+5w+9, whe

re w is the number of weeks since the amusement park opened for the season.
The number of children at the same amusement park, measured in hundreds of people, is represented by the function c(w)=−0.2w^2+9w+12, where w is the number of weeks since the amusement park opened for the season.

What function, f(w) , can be used to determine how many more children than adults are at the amusement park any week during the season?

Answer:

0.2w^2+4w+3

Step-by-step explanation:

a(w)=−0.4w^2+5w+9

c(w)=−0.2w^2+9w+12

We want to find the how many more children than adults

f(w) = c(w) - a(w)

    = −0.2w^2+9w+12 - ( −0.4w^2+5w+9)

Distribute the minus sign

= −0.2w^2+9w+12 +0.4w^2-5w-9

Combine like terms

 = 0.2w^2+4w+3

To be a triangle, any two of the side lengths added together must be greater than the third length.

9+15 > 9

9+9 > 15

Therefore, yes, the design can be made.

Answer:

2(4a + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

combined like terms: 4a + 6a - 3a and 5 + 3 - 6

when you combined these 2 terms, it's 8 a + 2

8 a + 2 = 2(4a + 1)

your choices:

2(8a + 1) = 16a + 2 ( not what we are looking for)

2(8a + 2) = 16a + 4 ( not what we are looking for)

2(4a + 1) = 8a + 2 ( the answer that we are looking for)

8a + 4 ( we are looking for 8a+ 2 not 8a + 4)

Therefore, 2(4a + 1) is the correct answer

For what value(s) of x does y = 0 for the function tan(x)?
mina [271]
So We Know That tan(x) Equals

\tan(x)  =  \frac{ \sin(x) }{ \cos(x) }
We Can Use Logic, We Know That Anything That Makes The Denominator 0, Will Not Work, So We Need To Know What Makes Sin(x) equal to 0 and Cos(x) equal to 1 or -1 BUT NOT 0

\sin(0)  = 0 \:  \cos(0)  = 1 \\  \sin(180) = 0  \:  \cos(180) =  - 1   \\ \sin(360)  = 0 \:  \cos(360)  = 1 \\  \sin( - 180)  = 0 \:  \cos( - 180)   =  - 1 \\ \sin( - 360)  = 0 \:   \cos( - 360)  = 1
\cos(90)  = 0 \\  \cos( - 90)  = 0 \\  \cos(270)  = 0 \\  \cos( - 270)  = 0
We Didn't Want Cosine To equal Zero Because Then We Get

\tan(x)  =  \frac{ \sin(x) }{ \cos(x) }  \\  \tan(x)  =  \frac{ \sin(90) }{ \cos(90) }  \\  \tan(x)  =  \frac{1}{0}  \\  \tan(x) = indeterminate

THE ANSWER IS C : -360°,-180°,0°,180°,360°
