Suppose there is a 1.6°F drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. If the temperature on

the ground is 58.3°F​, what will be the temperature when the plane reaches an altitude of 2,000 ft​?

Answer: 55.1°F

Step-by-step explanation:

We are informed that there is a 1.6°F drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky, if the plane reaches an altitude of 2,000ft, the drop in temperature will be:

= 1.6° × 2

= 3.2°F

If the temperature on the ground is 58.3°F​, then the temperature when the plane reaches an altitude of 2,000 ft will be:

= 58.3°F - 3.2°F

= 55.1°F

Determine whether this statement is true or false. if two lines have the same slope, their equations describe the same line.
maksim [4K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

When you say "slope", Im guessing your referring to the gradient (the steepness of the line).

If two lines have the same gradient their equations won't usually describe the same line because their 'y intercepts' will be different (the point in which the line crosses the y axis)

a boat travels 252 miles in 13 hours (with a constant speed) How much time will it take traveling 279 miles?
Ilya [14]

Answer: 14.4 h

The speed is : v=\frac{d}{t} =\frac{252}{13} =19.46 miles/h\\

The time it takes to travel 279 miles :

t'=\frac{d}{v} =\frac{279}{19.46} =14.4 hours

Using a directrix of y = −2 and a focus of (1, 6), what quadratic function is created? Question 3 options:
deff fn [24]

If your directrix is a "y=" line, that means that the parabola opens either upwards or downwards (as opposed to the left or the right). Because it is in the character of a parabola to "hug" the focus, our parabola opens upwards. The vertex of a parabola sits exactly halfway between the directrix and the focus. Since our directrix is at y = -2 and the focus is at (1, 6) AND the parabola opens upward, the vertex is going to sit on the main transversal, which is also the "line" the focus sits on. The focus is on the line x = 1, so the vertex will also have that x coordinate. Halfway between the y points of the directrix and the focus, -2 and 6, respectively, is the y value of 2. So the vertex sits at (1, 2). The formula for this type of parabola is (x-h)^2=4p(y-k) where h and k are the coordinates of the vertex and p is the DISTANCE that the focus is from the vertex. Our focus is 4 units from the vertex, so p = 4. Filling in our h, k, and p: (x-1)^2=4(4)(y-2). Simplifying a bit gives us (x-1)^2=16(y-2). We can begin to isolate the y by dividing both sides by 16 to get \frac{1}{16}(x-1)^2=y-2. Then we can add 2 to both sides to get the final equation f(x)=\frac{1}{16}(x-1)^2+2, choice 4 from above.
