Answer:

<em>m=-1/2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in y=mx+b form. M is the slope. In this equation, -1/2 is m.

Therefore the slope is -1/2.

Evaluate - 6 – (-6) + 7 + (-4) + (-1).<br><br> What’s the answer please!!
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: - 6 - (-6) + 7 + ( - 4) + ( - 1)

= - 6 + 6 + 7 - 4 - 1

= 6 + 7 - 6 - 4 - 1

= (6 + 7) - (6 + 4 + 1)

= 13 - 11

= 2

Hence, the answer.

April shoots an arrow upward at a speed of 80 feet per second from a platform 25 feet high. The pathway of the
zaharov [31]

Answer:

The maximum height of the arrow is 125 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pathway of the arrow can be represented by the equation,

h = -16t^2 +80t + 25 .....(1)

Where h is height in in feet and t is time in seconds.

It is required to find the maximum height of the arrow. For maximum height, \dfrac{dh}{dt}=0.

So,

\dfrac{d(-16t^2 +80t + 25)}{dt}=0\\\\-32t+80=0\\\\t=\dfrac{80}{32}\\\\t=2.5\ s

Put t = 2.5 s in equation (1). So,

h = -16(2.5)^2 +80(2.5) + 25\\\\h=125\ \text{feet}

So, the maximum height of the arrow is 125 feet.

In the first equation in the system of equations, y represents the money collected from selling sweatshirts. In the second equat
NeTakaya

Answer:

The solution x = 229.89 ≅ 230 (since we cannot have a decimal number of sweatshirts)implies that, the money collected from selling sweatshirts equals the money used in producing sweatshirts when 230 sweatshirts have been sold or produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

In the first equation in the system of equations, y represents the money collected from selling sweatshirts. in the second equation, y represents the money spent to produce x sweatshirts with team logos on them for a professional sports league.

y=35x; y=-0.05(x-400)²+9,492

what does the solution of the system represent in this context?

Solution

The solution of the system is obtained when both equations are equal. That is y=35x = y=-0.05(x-400)²+9,492 .

So, 35x = -0.05(x-400)² + 9,492.

Expanding the right side, we have

    35x = -0.05(x² - 800x + 160000) + 9492

    35x = -0.05x² -800x × -0.05 + (-0.05) × 160000 + 9492

    35x = -0.05x² +40x - 8000 + 9492

    35x = -0.05x² +40x + 1492

Collecting all the terms to the left side, we have

0.05x² - 40x - 1492 + 35x = 0

0.05x² - 5x -1492 = 0

Using the quadratic formula,

x = \frac{-(-5) +/- \sqrt{(-5)^{2} - 4 X 0.05 X - 1492}  }{2X0.05}   = \frac{5 +/- \sqrt{25 + 298.4}  }{0.1} =  \frac{5 +/- \sqrt{323.4}  }{0.1}\\=  \frac{5 +/- 17.983 }{0.1}\\=  \frac{5 - 17.983 }{0.1}  or  \frac{5 + 17.983 }{0.1}\\= \frac{-12.983 }{0.1} or  \frac{22.983 }{0.1}\\= -129.83 or 229.83

We choose the positive answer x = 229.83. Since we cannot have a decimal number of sweatshirts, we approximate to the nearest whole number. So, x = 229.83 ≅ 230 sweatshirts.

The solution implies that the money collected from selling sweatshirts equals the money used in producing sweatshirts when 230 sweatshirts have been sold or produced.

We confirm that by plugging in x = 229.83 in both equations.

y = 35x = 35(229.83) = 8044.05 ≅ 8044.1

y=-0.05(x-400)²+9,492 = y=-0.05(229.83-400)²+9,492 = y=-0.05(-170.17)²+9,492 = y=-0.05(28,957.8289)+9,492 = -1447.8914 + 9492 = 8044.11 ≅ 8044.1
