Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The x- intercepts of a parabola are (0,-6) and (0,4).

The parabola crosses the y- axis at -120.

Lucas said that an equation for the parabola is [tex]y=5x^2+10x-120[/tex] and that the coordinates of the vertex are (-1, -125).

To find:

Whether Lucas is correct or not.

Solution:

The x- intercepts of a parabola are (0,-6) and (0,4). It means (x+6) and (x-4) are the factors of the equation of the parabola.

[tex]y=a(x+6)(x-4)[/tex]             ...(i)

The parabola crosses the y- axis at -120. It means the equation of the parabola must be true for (0,-120).

[tex]-120=a(0+6)(0-4)[/tex]

[tex]-120=a(6)(-4)[/tex]

[tex]-120=-24a[/tex]

Divide both sides by -24.

[tex]\dfrac{-120}{-24}=a[/tex]

[tex]5=a[/tex]

Substituting [tex]a=5[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]y=5(x+6)(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y=5(x^2+6x-4x-24)[/tex]

[tex]y=5(x^2+2x-24)[/tex]

[tex]y=5x^2+10x-120[/tex]

So, the equation of the parabola is [tex]y=5x^2+10x-120[/tex].

The vertex of a parabola [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is:

[tex]Vertex=\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},f(-\dfrac{b}{2a})\right)[/tex]

In the equation of the parabola, [tex]a=5,b=10,c=-120[/tex].

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{10}{2(5)}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{10}{10}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-1[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-1[/tex] in the equation of the parabola, we get

[tex]y=5(-1)^2+10(-1)-120[/tex]

[tex]y=5-10-120[/tex]

[tex]y=-125[/tex]

So, the vertex of the parabola is at point (-1,-125).

Therefore, Lucas is correct.

Which equation matches the graph shown?

On the graph we can see a parabola that opens downwards, so it has a negative leading coefficient.

We also can see that the vertex of the parabola is on the point (3, -5)

Then the equation of the parabola is something like:

y + 5 = a*(x - 3)^2

Where a is a negative real number.

The only option of this form is option B, so we conclude that option B:

For the first questions, since the arc is 240°, the area of the sector and circumference will be 240/360 or 2/3 of the total of the circles'. Therefore 125.6 x 3/2 is the circumference, which is 188.4. When we divide this by 6.28, we get 30

Now, since the area is pi r^2 where we know that r=30, we get 900pi as the area of the whole thing, however since the sector is 2/3 of the whole circle, 2/3 x 900pi = 600pi

Answers

Answer:

The speed of balloon is 0.16 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

BC = 300 m

AD = x

AB = y

time, t = 3 min = 3 x 60 = 180 s

By the triangle, ADC,

[tex]tan 15 = \frac{AD}{BC}\\\\0.27 \times 300 = x \\\\x = 80.4 m[/tex]

By the triangle, BDC

[tex]tan 20 = \frac{BD}{BC}\\\\0.36 \times 300 = x + y \\\\x + y = 109.2 m[/tex]

So, y = 109.2 - 80.4 = 28.8 m

Speed of balloon = 28.8/180 = 0.16 m/s

Answer:

The correct answer is - A.(112.86, 127.14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

mean = $120

sd = $17.50

n = 40

Solution:

Confidence interval for a populationcan be express as mean +/- margin of error (E)

degree of freedom = n-1 = 40-1 = 39

confidence level (C) = 99% = 0.01

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 = 99%

 by margin of error E = t×sd/√n = 2.58*17.50/√40

= 2.58*2.76

= 7.138 or 7.14

then the lower limit of mean = mean - E = 120 - 7.14 = $112.86

Answers

Answer:

1350m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance ran by Denise, Farah and Elaine be D, F and E meters respectively.

From the given information,

D= ⅔(E +F) -----(1)

E= ½(D +F) -----(2)

Let's get rid of the fraction so the equations are much easier to work with.

From (1):

3D= 2(E +F) (Multiply both sides by 3)

3D= 2E +2F -----(3) (Expand)

From (2):

2E= D +F -----(4)

Substitute (4) into (3):

3D= D +F +2F

3D -D= 3F

2D= 3F

Given that Farah ran 360m, F= 360.

2D= 3(360)

2D= 1080

D= 1080 ÷2

D= 540

2E= D +F

2E= 540 +360

2E= 900

E= 900 ÷2

E= 450

Total distance the 3 girls ran

= D +F +E

= 540 +360 +450

= 1350m

Alternatively, you could start by substituting F= 360 to equations (1) and (2).

Find the ordered pair $(s,t)$ that satisfies the system
\begin{align*}

3t - 6s &= 9.
\end{align*}

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\left(\dfrac{8}{7} , \ \dfrac{17}{35} \right)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is presented as follows;

[tex]\dfrac{s}{2} + 5 \cdot t = 3[/tex]

3·t - 6·s = 9

Making t the subject of both equations, gives;

In the first equation; t = (3 - s/2)/5

In the second equation; t = (9 + 6·s)/3

Equating both values of t to find the the values that satisfies both equations, gives;

(3 - s/2)/5 = (9 + 6·s)/3

3 × (3 - s/2) = 5 × (9 + 6·s)

9 - (3/2)·s = 45 + 30·s

45 - 9 = (30 + (3/2))·s

36 = (63/2)·s

s = 36/(63/2) = 8/7

t = (3 - s/2)/5

∴ t = (3 - (8/7)/2)/5 = 17/35

Therefore, the ordered pair is (8/7, 17/35)

Graph Inequalities

From the given graph, the curve with the shaded dot shows less than or equal to because the dot indicates that the maximum input value of x is at that point.

Secondly, the curve without a shaded dot shows that the input function of x is only greater than 3.

Looking at the options, option A is right and we will prove it thus;

for y = x³ - 3

At x = 2, we see that;

y = 2³ - 3

y = 5

This corresponds with the given equation

therefore come up with two equations
