Let m represent the number of miles this guy runs in a day.
He runs every day, so the minimum number of miles has to be greater than 0.
According to the problem statement, the max number of miles is 3.5 miles or less.
Translate this into a (symbolic) inequality.
The proof is given below. Please go through it.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve Δ ABC ≅ Δ DBC
From Δ ABC and Δ DBC
AB = BD (given)
AC = CD (given)
BC is common side
By SSS condition Δ ABC ≅ Δ DBC ( proved)
To solve Δ EHF ≅ Δ GHF
Δ EHF and Δ GHF
EH = HG ( given)
∠ EFH = ∠ GFH ( each angle is 90°)
HF is common side
By RHS condition
Δ EHF ≅ Δ GHF
Answer:
The rocket hits the ground at a time of 11.59 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the rocket, after x seconds, is given by the following equation:

It hits the ground when
, so we have to find x for which
, which is a quadratic equation.
Finding the roots of a quadratic equation:
Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:
.
This polynomial has roots
such that
, given by the following formulas:



In this question:


So




Since time is a positive measure, the rocket hits the ground at a time of 11.59 seconds.
Y intercept slope - 5,0
X intercept slope - 0,-4
