Doubles each times
so 4/37 times 2/1=8/37 which is the next term
Try this: Principal times (1+interest rate as a decimal fraction)^(number of yrs)
In this case, Principal = $28,000; interest rate = -0.25; # of years = 1
So Decrease in value = $28,000 (0.75)^1 = $21,000.
The answer will be narrow
Part 1:
For this case we must see in the graph the axis of symmetry of the given parabola.
We have then that the axis of symmetry is the vertical line t = 2.
Answer:
The height of the javelin above the ground is symmetric about the line t = 2 seconds:
Part 2:
For this case, we must see the time t for which the javelin reaches a height of 20 feet for the first time.
We then have that when evaluating t = 1, the function is h (1) = 20. To do this, just look at the graph.
Then, we must observe the moment when it returns to be 20 feet above the ground.
For this, observing the graph we see that:
h (3) = 20 feet
Therefore, a height of 20 feet is again reached in 3 seconds.
Answer:
The javelin is 20 feet above the ground for the first time at t = 1 second and again at t = 3 seconds
