To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac and j+k=b
The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...
2k^2-5k-18=0
2k^2+4k-9k-18=0
2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0
(2k-9)(k+2)=0
so k=-2 and 9/2
k=(-2, 4.5)
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The linear model represents the height, f(x), of a water balloon thrown off the roof of a building over time, x, measured in seconds: A linear model with ordered pairs at 0, 60 and 2, 75 and 4, 75 and 6, 40 and 8, 20 and 10, 0 and 12, 0 and 14, 0. The x axis is labeled Time in seconds, and the y axis is labeled Height in feet. Part A: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height increasing? (2 points) Part B: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height staying the same? (2 points) Part C: During what interval(s) of the domain is the water balloon's height decreasing the fastest? Use complete sentences to support your answer. (3 points) Part D: Use the constraints of the real-world situation to predict the height of the water balloon at 16 seconds.
Answer:
Part A:
Between 0 and 2 seconds, the height of the balloon increases from 60 feet to 75 feet at a rate of 7.5 ft/s
Part B:
Between 2 and 4 seconds, the height stays constant at 75 feet.
Part C:
Between 4 and 6 seconds, the height of the balloon decreases from 75 feet to 40 feet at a rate of -17.5 ft/s
Between 6 and 8 seconds, the height of the balloon decreases from 40 feet to 20 feet at a rate of -10 ft/s
Between 8 and 10 seconds, the height of the balloon decreases from 20 feet to 0 feet at a rate of -10 ft/s
Hence it fastest decreasing rate is -17.5 ft/s which is between 4 to 6 seconds.
Part D:
From 10 seconds, the balloon is at the ground (0 feet), it continues to remain at 0 feet even at 16 seconds.
Answer:
y=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope: 9-9/-2-15=0
Therefore, y=0x+b
Plug values in: 9=0(-2)+b
0+b=9
b=9
Therefore, equation is y=9
Answer:
Associative
Step-by-step explanation:
The associative property of addition states that you can add numbers however they are grouped inside parentheses.
It doesn't matter where you put the parentheses. You will always get the same answer.
For example,
