Dalton built a linear model to show the height of a meteor falling to the Earth. The meteor starts at 100 km above the Earth's s

urface and falls at a rate of 20km per second. The x values represent the time in seconds and the y values represent the height of the meteor. What does the domain represent in context of the model?

Answer:

The domain represents the time of motion of the meteor as it falls from 100 km height above the Earth's surface at a speed of 20 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters from the question are;

The elevation of the meteor above the Earth's surface = 100 km

The rate at which the meteor falls = 20 km per second

The 'x' values represent the time in seconds and the 'y' values represent the meteor's height

Therefore, we have;

y = 100 - 20·x

The domain of a function is the set of inputs to the function

Therefore, the domain represent the time it takes the meteor to reach the given 100 km height above the Earth's surface

At the start x = 0 seconds

On the Earth's surface, y = 0, therefore;

0 = 100 - 20·x

x = 100/20 = 5

When the meteor just touches the Earth's surface x = 5 seconds

Therefore, the domain is 0 ≤ x ≤ 5.

P=44+66+88/2=198/2=99
With Heron formula:
S=root 99*(99-44)(99-66)(99-88)=root 99*55*33*11=root 1976535= 1405.8929.....=1405.9

Please create a word problem using the concept of probability. Please provide the answer to your word problem. *

In a game of rock paper scissors, what are the chances that someone playing against a person playing only paper would win?

As for the answer, if you were to make a chart to show rock, paper, and scissors, you'd be able to see that there's a 2/3 chance of winning by choosing rock. With scissors, there's also a 2/3 chance to win. Now with paper, there's only a 1/3 chance to win. Knowing that the other person will only play paper, the best answers would be to choose either rock or scissors.

(there are, of course, flaws with this concept, because the opponent could be lying about playing only paper. More or less, it's a good design to show probability.)

Two or zero expresses the possible number of positive real  solutions for the given polynomial equation.

Answer: Option D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given equation:

        x^{3}-4 x^{2}-7 x+28=0

First, we put hit and trial method to find out the one solution. So, if we put x=4 then the above expression will become zero.  We can also write the above expression as  

      (x-4) \times\left(x^{2}-7\right)=0

We know the formula, a^{2}-b^{2}=(a+b)(a-b), make use of this, we get

   (x-4) \times(x-\sqrt{7}) \times(x+\sqrt{7})=0

So, x=4, \sqrt{7},-\sqrt{7}

Hence, from the above expression, we have three values of x as x= 4, 2.64 and -2.64
