Across a horizontal distance of 25 feet, a roller coaster has a steep drop. The height of the roller coaster at the bottom of the drop is -150 feet, compared to its height at the top of the drop. What is the average amount that the roller coaster's height changes over each horizontal foot?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Hence, the average rate of change in vertical height is:

                               -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average amount that the roller coaster's height changes over each horizontal foot is basically the slope or the average rate of change of the height of the roller coaster to the horizontal distance.

i.e. it is the ratio of the vertical change i.e. the change in height of the roller coaster to the horizontal change.

Here the vertical change= -150 feet

and horizontal change = 25 feet

Hence,

Average rate of change is:

[tex]=\dfrac{-150}{25}\\\\=-6[/tex]

So, for every change in horizontal distance by 1 feet the vertical height drop by 6 feet.

Answer 2

Answer:

The average amount that the roller coaster's height changes over each horizontal foot is -6.

Further explanation:

The rate of linear function is known as the slope. And the slope can be defined as the ratio of vertical change (change in y) to the horizontal change (change in x).

Mathematically, we can write

[tex]\text{Slope}=\dfrac{\text{change in y}}{\text{change in x}}=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}[/tex]

If slope is negative then function is decreasing.If slope is positive then function is increasing.

Now, we have been given that  

Roller coaster has a steep drop at a horizontal distance of 25 feet.

Thus, [tex]\Delta x=25\text{ feet}[/tex]

The height of the roller coaster at the bottom of the drop is -150 feet.

Thus, [tex]\Delta y=-150\text{ feet}[/tex]

Using the above- mentioned formula, the average rate of change is given by

[tex]\text{Average rate of change }=\dfrac{-150}{25}[/tex]

On simplifying the fraction

[tex]\text{Average rate of change }=\dfrac{-6}{1}=-6[/tex]

It means for every 1 foot of horizontal distance, the roller coaster moves down by 6 feet.  

Please refer the attached graph to understand it better.

Therefore, we can conclude that the average amount that the roller coaster's height changes over each horizontal foot is -6.

For angles other than 1st-quadrant angles, it can sometimes be difficult to identify the relevant sides of the relevant triangle. If the angle were a 1st-quadrant angle, it would be clear that the side opposite the angle is the y-coordinate of the point on the terminal side. That remains the case for all angles.

Answers

Answer:

<1 = 100

<2 = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary

Supplementary angles add to 180 degrees

<1 + <2 = 180

The angles are in a ratio of 5 to 4

Multiply by x to get the measure of each angle

<1 = 5x  <2 = 4x

5x+4x = 180

Combine like terms

9x = 180

Divide by 9

9x/9 =180/9

A candy manufacturer has 130 pounds of chocolate-covered cherries and 170 pounds of chocolate-covered mints in stock. He decides to sell them in the form of two different mixtures. One mixture will contain half cherries and half mints by weight and will sell for $2.00 per pound. The other mixture will contain one-third cherries and two-thirds mints by weight and will sell for $1.25 per pound. How many pounds of each mixture should the candy manufacturer prepare in order to maximize his sales revenue?

Answers

Answer:

He should prepare 260 pounds of first mixture and 0 pounds of second mixture

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total quantity ( in pounds ) of cherries and mints in the first mixture and y be the total quantity in second mixture,

Since, first mixture will contain half cherries and half mints by weight,

That is, in first mixture,

Cherries = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Mints = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex],

While, second mixture will contain one-third cherries and two-thirds mints by weight,

That is, in second mixture,

Cherries = [tex]\frac{y}{3}[/tex]

Mints = [tex]\frac{2y}{3}[/tex]

According to the question,

The manufacturer has 130 pounds of chocolate-covered cherries and 170 pounds of chocolate-covered mints in stock,

That is,

[tex]\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{3} \leq 130[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2}+\frac{2y}{3}\leq 170[/tex]

Also, pounds can not be negative,

x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0,

Since, the first and second mixture must be sell at the rate of $2.00 per pound and $1.25 per pound respectively,

Hence, the total revenue,

Z = 2.00x + 1.25y

Which is the function that have to maximise,

By plotting the above inequalities,

Vertex of feasible regions are,

(0,255), (180, 120) and (260, 0),

Also, at (260, 0), Z is maximum,

Hence, he should prepare 260 pounds of first mixture and 0 pounds of second mixture in order to maximize his sales revenue.

Final answer:

To maximize sales revenue, the candy manufacturer should prepare one-third cherries and two-thirds mints mixture.

Explanation:

To maximize sales revenue, the candy manufacturer should prepare a mixture that contains one-third cherries and two-thirds mints by weight. Let's assume that he prepares x pounds of this mixture. To calculate the amount of the other mixture, we subtract x from the total weight of the ingredients in stock. So, the amount of the other mixture will be (130 + 170) - x pounds. The candy manufacturer should prepare x pounds of the one-third cherries and two-thirds mints mixture and (130 + 170) - x pounds of the other mixture to maximize his sales revenue.

h = -16t² + 15t + 40

How long does it take for the ball to hit the ground (in seconds) rounded to the nearest hundredth?"

When the ball hits the ground, its height is 0:

0 = -16t² + 15t + 40

0 = 16t² − 15t − 40

Solve with quadratic formula:

t = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

t = [ 15 ± √(225 + 2560) ] / 32

t ≈ 2.12 or -1.18

t must be positive, so t = 2.12 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

A.)  Slope of function B = 2 * the slope of Function A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of Function A is 1  ( because of the x  ( = 1x) in the equation).

From the graph, the slope of Function B = 5 / 2.5 = 2.

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The equation of Function A is

[tex]f(x)=x-9[/tex]      .... (2)

From (1) and (2) we get

[tex]m=1[/tex]

It means slope of Function A is 1.

If a line passes through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex], then slope of the line is

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

From the given graph it is clear that the line passes through two points (0,-1) and (1,1).

[tex]m=\frac{1-(-1)}{1-0}=2[/tex]

The slope of Function B is 2.

We can say that

Slope of Function B = 2 x Slope of Function A

What is the quadratic function that is created with roots -10 and -4 and a vertex at (-7, -9)?

Answers

Answer:

In vertex form it's [tex]y=(x+7)^2-9[/tex]

In standard form it's [tex]y=x^2+14x+40[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the vertex form to solve for a in

[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

"a" is the number out front that dictates the steepness, or lack thereof, in a parabola.  That means that we need h and k (which we have in the vertex) and we need x and y (which we have in the form of one of the zeros).  Filling in using a vertex of (-7, -9) and a coordinate point (-7, 0):

[tex]0=a(-4-(-7))^2-9[/tex] simplifies a bit to

[tex]0=a(-4+7)^2-9[/tex] simplifies a bit more to

[tex]0=a(3)^2-9[/tex] and

[tex]0=a(9)-9[/tex] so

[tex]0=9a-9[/tex],

[tex]9=9a[/tex] and finally,

a = 1

Phew!  So there is the a value.  Now we can simply fill in the formula completely, using the vertex as our guide:

[tex]y=(x+7)^2-9[/tex]

In standard ofrm that is

[tex]y=x^2+14x+40[/tex]

We can check ourselves for accuracy by factoring that standard polynomial using whatever method of factoring you like for quadratics and get that the roots are in fact x = -10, -4

The only reason we needed the zeros is to use one of them as the x and y to solve for a.  

A shipping company must design a closed rectangular shipping crate with a square base. The volume is 3072ft3. The material for the top and sides costs $4 per square foot and the material for the bottom costs $2 per square foot. Find the dimensions of the crate that will minimize the total cost of material.

Answers

The dimensions that minimize the total cost of material for the shipping crate are:

- Length: 24 feet

- Width: 24 feet

- Height: 8 feet

To solve this problem, we can start by writing down the volume formula for a rectangular box with a square base:

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Given that the volume is 3072 ft³, we have:

3072 = L × W × H

We also know that the material for the top and sides costs $4 per square foot and the material for the bottom costs $2 per square foot. Let's denote the areas of the top, bottom, and sides as A_top, A_bottom, and A_sides, respectively.

A_top = L × W

A_bottom = L × W

A_sides = 2 × (L × H + W × H)

The total cost, C, can be expressed as:

C = 4 × (A_top + A_bottom) + 2 × A_sides

C = 4 × (L × W + L × W) + 2 × 2 × (L × H + W × H)

C = 8LW + 4LH + 4WH

We can substitute the volume equation into the cost equation to eliminate one variable. Let's express L in terms of W and H from the volume equation:

L = 3072 ÷ (W × H)

Now substitute L into the cost equation:

C = 8(3072 ÷ (WH))W + 4(3072 ÷ (WH))H + 4WH

C = 24576 ÷ H + 12288 ÷ W + 4WH

To minimize C, we take the derivative with respect to W and H, set them equal to zero, and solve for W and H:

∂C/∂W = -12288/W² + 4H = 0

∂C/∂H = -24576/H² + 4W = 0

Solving these equations gives us W = 24 and H = 8, which leads to L = 3072 ÷ (24 × 8) = 16.

So, the dimensions that minimize the total cost of material are Length: 24 feet, Width: 24 feet, and Height: 8 feet.

Answer:

Choice A) [tex]F(x) = 3\sqrt{x + 1}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

What are the changes that would bring [tex]G(x)[/tex] to [tex]F(x)[/tex]?

Translate [tex]G(x)[/tex] to the left by [tex]1[/tex] unit, andStretch [tex]G(x)[/tex] vertically (by a factor greater than [tex]1[/tex].)

[tex]G(x) = \sqrt{x}[/tex]. The choices of [tex]F(x)[/tex] listed here are related to [tex]G(x)[/tex]:

Choice A) [tex]F(x) = 3\;G(x+1)[/tex];Choice B) [tex]F(x) = 3\;G(x-1)[/tex];Choice C) [tex]F(x) = -3\;G(x+1)[/tex];Choice D) [tex]F(x) = -3\;G(x-1)[/tex].

The expression in the braces (for example [tex]x[/tex] as in [tex]G(x)[/tex]) is the independent variable.

To shift a function on a cartesian plane to the left by [tex]a[/tex] units, add [tex]a[/tex] to its independent variable. Think about how [tex](x-a)[/tex], which is to the left of [tex]x[/tex], will yield the same function value.

Conversely, to shift a function on a cartesian plane to the right by [tex]a[/tex] units, subtract [tex]a[/tex] from its independent variable.

For example, [tex]G(x+1)[/tex] is [tex]1[/tex] unit to the left of [tex]G(x)[/tex]. Conversely, [tex]G(x-1)[/tex] is [tex]1[/tex] unit to the right of [tex]G(x)[/tex]. The new function is to the left of [tex]G(x)[/tex]. Meaning that [tex]F(x)[/tex] should should add [tex]1[/tex] to (rather than subtract [tex]1[/tex] from) the independent variable of [tex]G(x)[/tex]. That rules out choice B) and D).

Multiplying a function by a number that is greater than one will stretch its graph vertically. Multiplying a function by a number that is between zero and one will compress its graph vertically.Multiplying a function by a number that is between [tex]-1[/tex] and zero will flip its graph about the [tex]x[/tex]-axis. Doing so will also compress the graph vertically.Multiplying a function by a number that is less than [tex]-1[/tex] will flip its graph about the [tex]x[/tex]-axis. Doing so will also stretch the graph vertically.

The graph of [tex]G(x)[/tex] is stretched vertically. However, similarly to the graph of this graph [tex]G(x)[/tex], the graph of [tex]F(x)[/tex] increases as [tex]x[/tex] increases. In other words, the graph of [tex]G(x)[/tex] isn't flipped about the [tex]x[/tex]-axis. [tex]G(x)[/tex] should have been multiplied by a number that is greater than one. That rules out choice C) and D).

Overall, only choice A) meets the requirements.

Since the plot in the question also came with a couple of gridlines, see if the points [tex](x, y)[/tex]'s that are on the graph of [tex]F(x)[/tex] fit into the expression [tex]y = F(x) = 3\sqrt{x - 1}[/tex].

Answer:

f(x) =3 sqrt(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice two things about the graph, it has a shift to the left and is steeper

First the shift to the left

f(x) = g(x + C)  

C > 0 moves it left

C < 0 moves it right

g(x) is 0 at x=0   f(x) is 0 at  x=-1

We are moving it 1 unit to the left

This means our "c" is 1

f(x) = sqrt( x+1)

Now we need to deal with the graph getting steeper

f(x) = Cg(x)  

C > 1 stretches it in the y-direction

0 < C < 1 compresses it

Since it is getting taller, "c" must be greater than 1

Remember the - sign means it is a reflection across the x axis, which we do not have

f(x) =3 sqrt(x+1)

Answers

Explanation:

Step 1: find the mean of the data

Step 2: subtract the mean from every data value

Step 3: find the absolute values of the differences from Step 2

Step 4: find the mean of the absolute values from Step 3. This is the MAD.

_____

The mean and absolute value have their usual definitions.

The mean is the sum of a set of numbers, divided by the number of numbers in the set.

The absolute value is the numerical value of a number with its sign changed to positive, if it isn't already. For example, |-1| = 1 and |1| = 1. The vertical bars signify the absolute value of their contents.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only exception to that is that when you have a negative outside of the absolute value symbol, you will get a negative answer.

Ex: -|3| = -3

I need to mix brown paint using red, blue, and, yellow in the ratio of 2:1:3. If I need to mix 18 fluid ounces of paint, hwo much yellow paint will I need?

Answers

hihi! so the ratio 2:1:3 can be rewritten as 2/6 (red) 1/6 (blue) and 3/6 (yellow).

this is because you have 2 floz of red, 1 floz of blue, and 3 floz of yellow, which adds up to 6 floz of paint total in your ratio.

since you have 18 fl. oz. of paint, you multiply the ratio 3/6 by 18 to get 9 fl. oz. of yellow paint.

hope this helps!

There would be of 9 ounces yellow paint needed.

What is ratio?

Ratio basically compares quantities, that means it show value of one quantity with respect to other quantity.

If a and b are two values, their ratio will be a:b,

Given that,

The total quantity of fluid of paint= 18 ounces,

And the ratio of red, blue and yellow paint = 2:1:3

Let the multiplying factor in ratio is x,

So, total paint will be 6x,

According to given condition,

6x = 18 ounces,

x = 3 ounces

Since yellow paint is 3x,

So 3x = 9 ounces

9 ounces yellow paint is required,

What is the first step in simplifying the expression

Answers

Final answer:

The first step in simplifying a mathematical expression, especially those with parentheses, is to eliminate and simplify terms within the parentheses. This involves combining like terms or performing operations according to the order of operations. Subsequent steps may involve factoring and applying algebraic rules to further simplify.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the first step in simplifying a mathematical expression. To begin simplifying any expression, especially when involving parentheses, the first step typically involves eliminating terms within the parentheses wherever possible. This process often involves combining like terms or simplifying the algebraic expression by performing any operations inside the parentheses first, according to the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

After simplifying the expression inside the parentheses, you can then apply other algebraic techniques, such as factoring, combining like terms outside the parentheses, and explicit multiplication of terms across the parentheses if needed. Always remember to check the answer to see if it is reasonable and to ensure that no simplification step has been missed.

If the expression involves complex denominators or numerators, applying algebraic rules such as the power rule or the chain rule can further simplify the expression. In cases involving equations, isolating the variable on one side can help in solving for the unknown value.

Answer:

(7, 0); the time it takes to empty the water in the pool

Step-by-step explanation:

The following table shows the amount of water leaking from an inflatable pool as a function of time:

x (time in minutes)    f(x)

0                            35

1                            30

2                            25

3                            20

4                             15

f(x) represents the amount of water in the pool. x intercept is the point where f(x) is 0 .At x intercept the amount of water in the pool is 0.

WE need to find out the point where f(x) becomes 0

F(x) is decreasing by 5. LEts extend the table till we get f(x) becomes 0

Decrease f(x) by 5

x (time in minutes)    f(x)

3                            20

4                             15

5                                  15-5=10

6                                  10-5=5

7                                   5-5=0

When x=7, f(x)=0. (7,0) is the x intercept.

(7, 0); the time it takes to empty the water in the pool
