Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4.8x + C

53.8 = 4.8(4) + C

53.8 = 19.2 + C

C = 34.6

Look at the graph below and answer the following.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Part 1) The graph has three (3) x-intercepts and has one (1) y-intercept

Part 2) The y-value of the minimum point is -3

Part 3) f(4)=3

Part 4) f(0)=3

Part 5) f(5)=1.5

Part 6) x=-6

Part 7) The horizontal line y=-1 intersects the graph three times

Part 8) The value of the function for f(6) is equal to zero

Part 9) The function is increasing on the interval (-6,-2) and (8,11) and the function is decreasing on the interval (2,8)

Part 10) The function is positive on the interval (-3,6) and (10,11) and is negative on the interval (-6,-3) and (6,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the number of x-intercepts and y-intercepts of the graph

we know that

The<u> x-intercepts</u> are the values of x when the value of y (the function) is equal to zero

Look at the graph

The graph has 3 x-intercepts

The x-intercepts are the points (-3,0), (6,0) and (10,0)

The<u> y-intercepts</u> are the values of y when the value of x is equal to zero

Look at the graph

The graph has 1 y-intercept

The y-intercept is the point (0,3)

Part 2) The y value of the minimum point on the graph is?

we know that

Look at the picture

The minimum point is (-6,-3)

therefore

The y-value of the minimum point is -3

Part 3) f(4) is equal to?

we know that

f(4) is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to 4

Look at the graph

For x=4

The value of the function is equal to y=3

therefore

f(4)=3

Part 4) f(0) is equal to?

we know that

f(0) is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to 0

Look at the graph

For x=0

The value of the function is equal to y=3

therefore

f(0)=3

Part 5) f(5) is equal to?

we know that

f(5) is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to 5

Look at the graph

For x=5

The value of the function is about y=1.5 (see the attached figure)

therefore

f(5)=1.5

Part 6) The value of x when f(x)= -3 is?

Look at the graph

we have the point (-6,-3)

when the value of f(x)=-3

the value of x is equal to x=-6

Part 7) The horizontal line y = -1 intersects the graph _____ times?

Look at the graph

The horizontal line y=-1 intersects the graph three times (see the attached figure)

Part 8) f(6) is positive or negative?

Look at the graph

we have the point (6,0)

For x=6

The value of the function is equal to zero

Part 9) Is the graph increasing or decreasing on the interval -6?

Look at the graph

The function is increasing on the interval (-6,-2) and (8,11) and the function is decreasing on the interval (2,8)

Part 10) Is the graph positive or negative on the interval 6

Look at the graph

The function is positive (f(x) > 0) on the interval (-3,6) and (10,11) and is negative (f(x) < 0) on the interval (-6,-3) and (6,10)

A mail carrier can deliver mail to 36 houses in 30 minutes. Mark wants to determine how many houses the carrier can deliver mail

sergey [27]

Answer:

Mark’s method is correct, because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rule out the options given one by one.

Option 1: Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute. The carrier can only deliver to a whole number of houses.

This is not true, because 1.2 is a rate, it just means that the carrier can finish 1 house in a minute, and also have time to get started delivering to the second house. The total number of houses has to be a whole number, but the rate doesn't.

Option 2: Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes. The carrier can only deliver mail for a whole number of minutes.

This option is also incorrect. Delivering mail for 7.5 minutes just means 7 minutes and 30 seconds, which is definitely possible.

Option 3: Mark’s method is correct, because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.

This option is correct. 1.2 is the rate of which the carrier delivers mail.

Option 4: Mark’s method is correct, because it is possible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes; 7.5 represents the unit rate of 7.5 minutes per house.

This option is also incorrect. Although it is possible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes, it is not the unit rate, it is the total amount of time it would take.

Solve the equation for x

KengaRu [80]

You can do this 2 ways, one is knowing the special right triangles called triplets. An example of a triplet would be 3-4-5 where the largest value is the hypotenuse. In this example, the other 2 sides are 3 and 4 and the missing side is the hypotenuse, so using the knowledge of triplets, we can find that the hypotenuse is 5.

algebraically, we can use the Pythagorean theorem; a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the opposite and adjacent and where c is the hypotenuse. We can then substitute in the values to get : 3^2 + 4^2 = c^2. When simplified, we get 9+16=c^2. Simplify further, and get 25=c^2. Now we Square root both sides to solve for C. Finally, we get C=5. Your missing side is 5.
