we know the blue and white paints are on a 1.5 : 5 ratio, thus, if we have a total of 16.25 gallons of paint to be split along that ratio, we can simply divide 16.25 by (1.5+5) and distribute accordingly.
A. 48 is the answer because 8x6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the marshmallow (in feet) is represented by the equation h=−16t2+8t+48,
where t is the time (in seconds) after he throws the marshmallow.
The equation is a quadratic equation. When the marshmallow hits the ground, its height from the ground will be zero. Therefore
−16t^2+8t+48 = 0
- 2t^2 + t + 6 = 0
Multiplying through by the negative sign. It becomes
2t^2 - t - 6 = 0
2t^2 + 3t - 4t - 6 = 0
t(2t + 3) - 2(2t + 3) = 0
(t - 2)(2t + 3) = 0
t - 2 = 0 or 2t + 3 = 0
t = 2 or t = - 3/2
The time cannot be negative
So it will take 2 seconds to hit the ground
To find the slope you use the equation:
m = (y₂-y₁) ÷ (x₂-x₁)
You plug in the two points into this equation to find m (m is the slope)
m = (1 - 0) ÷ (0 - 2)
m = 1 ÷ (-2)
m = - 1/2
Next you use this equation:
y = mx + b
Because you know m you plug it in.
y = -1/2x + b
Now you need to find b. To do so you plug in either of the points into this equation(you come out with the same answer for b)
y = -1/2x + b
1 = -1/2(0) + b
1 = b
Finally you plug in b and you get your new equation.
y = -1/2x + 1
