9514 1404 393

Answer:

  92.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of Megan's scores is ...

  94 +81 +87 +93 = 355

so her current average is 355/4 = 88.75

The score (s) Megan needs for a 90 average is ...

  (2/3)(88.75) +(1/3)s = 90

  2(88.75) +s = 270 . . . . . . . . multiply by 3

  s = 270 -177.5 = 92.5

Megan needs a score of 92.5 on her final to have an overall average of 90.

The florida manatee population is 3,000 and is decreasing by 11% each year. Write a function for this situation.
True [87]

Answer:

P=3000(0.89)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

It was given that, florida manatee population is 3,000 and is decreasing by 11% each year.

We want to write a function for this situation.

Since the population is decreasing annually, it is modelled by:

P=P_0(1-r\%)^t

We substitute the give initial population and rate of decrease to get:

P=3000(1-0.11)^t

This simplifies to:

P=3000(0.89)^t

A tree struck by lightning broke at a point 12 feet above the ground. What was the height of the tree to the nearest tenth of a
algol13

Answer:

52.8 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram :

The height of tree woulb be :

Height above the ground (at breakpoint) + hypotenus

Hypotenus, h cab be obtained using Pythagoras rule :

h² = opp² + adj²

h² = 39² + 12²

h² = 1665

h = sqrt(1665)

h = 40.804 feets

Height of tree to the nearest tenth ;

40.804 feets + 12 feets

= 52.804 feets

= 52.8 feets

Which ordered pair is the vertex of y=|x+5|-1
nataly862011 [7]

We can tell that this absolute value function opens up, so the vertex will be at the x value where the output is the lowest. The lowest you can make |x+5| go is 0, because everything else will be a positive number is greater. The one x value that does that is -5. Plug in -5, and you will get |-5+5|-1=-1. So, the ordered pair for the vertex will be (-5,-1)

I need help for these! (if you could show the steps it'll help alot:) )
PolarNik [594]

The attached picture is a summary of all the six transformations you'd do.

Any change outside the f(x) notation impacts y-values of points on the graph.

Any changes inside the f(x) notation impacts x-values of points on the graph.

The trick is that the inside changes are usually the opposite of what you'd expect to have happen.

7. y=f(x)+8

This is an outside change.  You're adding 8 to all the y-values of points on the graph.  This will shift your entire graph up 8 units.

8. y=f(x+6)

This is an inside change.  Because it says "+6", you want to think, "Ah!  That means I'll actually subtract 6 from the x-value of every point on the graph." This graph is shifted 6 units to the left.

9. y=-f(x)

Inside change, impacts y-values.  Every y-value will be given the opposite signs.  Negatives become positive and positives become negative.  This will flip your graph over the x-axis.

10. y = f(-x) + 5

Give this one a shot on your own first in a comment and I'll let you know how you did.  

11. y = - 3 f(x-3)

There are three things happening.  A negative on the outside, multiplying by 3 on the outside, and subtracting 3 inside.  What will each of those do individually?  Take a shot on this one and let me know what you think.

12. y = 1/2 f( 1/2 x )

Again, three changes.  Try this one and let me know what you think.  Remember multiplying by 1/2 inside really means you'll do the opposite of multiplying by 1/2.
