Answer:

  1. 13 ft
  2. (a) 1 second; (b) t = 0, t = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>1. </h3>

Let w represent the length of the wire. Then the height of attachment is (w-1). The Pythagorean theorem tells us a relevant relation is ...

  5² +(w -1)² = w²

  w² -2w +26 = w² . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  26 = 2w . . . . . . . . . . . . add 2w

  13 = w . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The length of the wire is 13 feet.

__

<h3>2. </h3>

(a) When h = 0, the equation is ...

  0 = -16t^2 +8t +8

Dividing by -8 puts this into standard form:

  2t^2 -t -1 = 0

Factoring, we get ...

  (2t +1)(t -1) = 0

The positive value of t that makes a factor zero is t = 1.

It will take 1 second for the gymnast to reach the ground.

__

(b) When h = 8, the equation is ...

  8 = -16t^2 +8t +8

Subtract 8 and divide by 8 to get ...

  0 = -2t^2 +t

  0 = t(1 -2t) . . . . factor out t

Values of t that make the factors zero are ...

  t = 0

  t = 1/2

The gymnast will be 8 feet above the ground at the start of the dismount, and 1/2 second later.

Oceanside Bike Rental Shop charges $16 plus $6 an hour for renting a bike. Melanie paid $64 to rent a bike. How many hours did s
Elanso [62]

Answer:

This is a linear equation.

y = mx+b

y is the total cost.

The slope m is the rate: that's 9 dollars per hour.

x is the number of hours.

b is the initial value: that's 16 dollars.

y = 9x+16

The problem states that the cost was 79 dollars.

Substitute that for y and solve for x.

79 = 9x+16

63 = 9x

x = 7 hours
