Write a function for (0,4)(1,8)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Mark points (0, 2) and (8, -4) in the coordinate system.

Plot the line going through these points.

Read the coordinates of the intersection of the line (solution).

The solution of the system of linear equation is (4,-1) and this can be determined by using the arithmetic operations.

Given :

Equations  ---  y = x - 5   --- (1)

                       [tex]\rm y = -\dfrac{3}{4}x+2[/tex]    --- (2)

The system of linear equations can be determined by substituting the value of y in terms of x in another equation in order to determine the value of 'x' and by finding the value of 'x', the value of 'y' can also be determined.

Substitute the value of 'y' in equation (2) that is:

[tex]\rm x-5 = -\dfrac{3}{4}x+2[/tex]

Further, simplify the above equation.

[tex]4x - 20 = -3x +8[/tex]

7x = 28

x = 4

Now, substitute the value of 'x' in equation (1) that is:

y = 4 - 5

y = -1

So, the solution of the system of linear equation is (4,-1).

Answer:

a. The approximated salary cap in 2009 is $136.0 millions

b. The salary cap reached 65 million dollars in 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The quadratic model of the salary cap in million is

 y = 0.2313 x² + 2.600 x + 35.17

- The approximation of this cap in millions of dollars for the years

  1993-2013 where x = 0 represents 1993, x = 1 represents 1994,

  and so on

a. Lets calculate the approximated sports league salary cap in 2009

∵ x at 2009 = 2009 - 1993 = 16

∵ y = 0.2313 x² + 2.600 x + 35.17

∴ y = 0.2313 (16)² + 2.600 (16) + 35.17

∴ y = 135.98 ≅ 136.0 millions

* The approximated salary cap in 2009 is $136.0 millions

b. Lets calculate in what year did the salary cap reach 65 million dollars

∵ y = 65

∵ y = 0.2313 x² + 2.600 x + 35.17

∴ 65 = 0.2313 x² + 2.600 x + 35.17

- Subtract 65 from both sides

∴ 0.2313 x² + 2.600 x - 29.83 = 0

- Use the calculator to find the value of x by solving the quadratic

 equation

∴ x = 7.05 and x = -18.29 (we will reject this value)

∴ x ≅ 7 years

∴ The salary cap reached 65 million dollars in (1993 + 7) = 2000

* The salary cap reached 65 million dollars in 2000

Final answer:

To approximate the sports league salary cap in 2009, plug in 2009 for x in the given quadratic model equation. The salary cap in 2009 is approximately $942.9 million. If we set the salary cap to $65 million and solve for x using the quadratic model, we find that the cap reached $65 million in the year 2004.

Explanation:

To approximate the sports league salary cap in 2009, plug in 2009 for x in the quadratic model given. The equation becomes:

y = 0.2313(2009)^2 + 2.600(2009) + 35.17

Simplifying the equation gives:

y ≈ 942.85

Therefore, the approximate sports league salary cap in 2009 is $942.9 million (rounded to the nearest tenth).

To determine the year when the salary cap reached $65 million, set y = 65 in the quadratic model and solve for x:

65 = 0.2313x^2 + 2.600x + 35.17

By rearranging the equation and solving for x using the quadratic formula, we find that:

x ≈ 4.56

Rounding down to the nearest year, we can conclude that the salary cap reached $65 million in the year 2004.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the word problem is ( x - 5 ) × 2 = 26 and the value of the unknown number is 18.

Given that;

A number is decreased by five and then the result is multiplied by two.

The result is 26.

Let x represent the unknown know number.

Hence,

The equation is ( x - 5 ) × 2 = 26

We can go further and solve for the value of the unknown number.

( x - 5 ) × 2 = 26

2x - 10 = 26

2x = 26 + 10

2x = 36

3.1.3

Answer:

Part 1) The smallest x-intercept is x=-1

Part 2) The largest x-intercept is x=6

Part 3) The y-intercept is y=-6

Part 4) The vertex is the point (2.5,-12.25)

Part 5) The equation of the line of symmetry is x=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]f(x)=x^{2}-5x-6[/tex]

step 1

Find the x-intercepts

we know that

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of the function is equal to zero

so

equate the function to zero

[tex]x^{2}-5x-6=0[/tex]

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form [tex]ax^{2} +bx+c=0[/tex] is equal to

[tex]x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}[/tex]

in this problem we have

[tex]x^{2}-5x-6=0[/tex]

so

[tex]a=1\\b=-5\\c=-6[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]x=\frac{-(-5)(+/-)\sqrt{-5^{2}-4(1)(-6)}} {2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{5(+/-)\sqrt{49}} {2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{5(+/-)7} {2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{5(+)7} {2}=6[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{5(-)7} {2}=-1[/tex]

therefore

The x-intercepts are

x=-1 and x=6

The smallest x-intercept is x=-1

The largest x-intercept is x=6

step 2

Find the y-intercept

we know that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

so

For x=0

[tex]f(0)=(0)^{2}-5(0)-6[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=-6[/tex]

therefore

The y-intercept is y=-6

step 3

Find the vertex

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

[tex]f(x)=a(x-h)^{2}+k[/tex]

where

(h,k) is the vertex

Convert the function into vertex form

[tex]f(x)=x^{2}-5x-6[/tex]

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

[tex]f(x)+6=(x^{2}-5x)[/tex]

Complete the square, Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

[tex]f(x)+6+2.5^{2}=(x^{2}-5x+2.5^{2})[/tex]

[tex]f(x)+12.25=(x^{2}-5x+6.25)[/tex]

Rewrite as perfect squares

[tex]f(x)+12.25=(x-2.5)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=(x-2.5)^{2}-12.25[/tex]

The vertex is the point (2.5,-12.25)

step 4

Find the equation of the line of symmetry

we know that

In a vertical parabola the equation of the line of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

we have

vertex (2.5,-12.25)

The x-coordinate of the vertex is 2.5

therefore

The equation of the line of symmetry is x=2.5

6 = 1/27 a

Multiply each side by 27

6*27 = 1/27 a *27

162 = a

Answer:

a = 162.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/27 a + 3 = 9

1/27 a = 9 - 3 = 6

Multiply both sides by 27:

a = 6 * 27

a =  162.

Answer:

2313

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P(1+r)^t

where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate, and t is time.

Here, P = 1000, r = 0.15, and t = 6.

A = 1000(1.15)^6

A ≈ 2313

Step-by-step explanation:

Population after n days is given by

              [tex]P_n=P_0(1+r)^n[/tex]

Initial population, P₀ = 1000

Increase rate, r = 15 % = 0.15

Number of days, n = 6

Substituting

             [tex]P_n=P_0(1+r)^n\\\\P_6=1000(1+0.15)^6\\\\P_6=1000(1.15)^6\\\\P_6=1000\times 2.313\\\\P_6=2313[/tex]

Number of bacteria after 6 days = 2313

The simplified form of √100 is 10....

Step-by-step explanation:

recall in a linear equation expressed in the form

y = mx + b,

m represents the slope or the rate of change in the value of y for a unit change in the value of x

b represents the y-intercept (i.e the value of y when x = 0)

If you compare these definitions to what was given in the question, the rate of  change in snowfall is given as 1/2 inches per hour. This is equivalent to the m value in our general equation above. Hence we can say that the rate of change in snowfall is equal to the slope of the graph.

The question also states that before the snow even started to fall (i.e when x=0 hours), there was already 8 inches on the ground. This is equivalent to the value of b in our general equation above. Hence we can say that the y-intercept is representative of the 8 inches that was already on the ground when the snow started falling.

  x = {-8/3, 7/2}

Step-by-step explanation:

To use the zero product property, you need the equation in the form of a product that is equal to zero. We can get that by subtracting 56 and factoring the resulting equation.

  6x^2 -5x -56 = 0

  (3x +8)(2x -7) = 0

The zero product property tells us this product is zero only when the factors are zero:

  3x +8 = 0   ⇒   x = -8/3

  2x -7 = 0   ⇒   x = 7/2

The solution is x = {-8/3, 7/2}.

_____

Comment on factoring

Consider the product ...

  (ax +b)(cx +d) = (ac)x^2 +(ad +bc)x +(bd)

Now consider the product of first and last term coefficients compared to the coefficient of the middle term:

  acbd = (ad)(bc)  vs.  ad+bc

We see that the coefficient of the middle term is the sum of two of the factors of the first·last product. This means we want factors of 6·(-56) that have a sum of -5.

  6(-56) = -(2^4)(3)(7) . . . . has 20 divisors.

We're looking for factors that are nearly equal. The clue is given by simplifying the above factoring:

  = -(16)(21) = (16)(-21) . . . . the sum of these factors is -5, as we need.

Again considering the first-last product and the middle coefficient, we see that we can choose ...

  ad = -21, bc = 16; ac = 6, so a=3, c=2, and ...

  (a, b, c, d) = (3, 8, 2, -7)

These values give us the factors we used above.

Note this process gets easier with practice and familiarity with multiplication tables.

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form [tex]y*x=k[/tex] or [tex]y=k/x[/tex]

Part 1) y varies inversely with x. If y = 3 and k (the constant of variation) = 33, what is x?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]y=3[/tex]

[tex]k=33[/tex]

substitute and solve for x

[tex]3*x=33[/tex]

Divide by 3 both sides

[tex]x=33/3[/tex]

[tex]x=11[/tex]

Part 2) y varies inversely with x. When y = 11, x = 5.2. What is the value of k, the constant of inverse variation?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]y=11[/tex]

[tex]x=5.2[/tex]

substitute and solve for k

[tex]11*5.2=k[/tex]

[tex]k=57.2[/tex]  

Part 3) y varies inversely with x, and k (the constant of variation) = 72. What is the value of y when x = 7.8?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]x=7.8[/tex]

[tex]k=72[/tex]

substitute and solve for y

[tex]y*7.8=72[/tex]

Divide by 7.8 both sides

[tex]y=72/7.8[/tex]

[tex]y=9.2[/tex]

Part 4) y varies inversely with x. If y = 8 and k (the constant of variation) = 19, what is x?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]y=8[/tex]

[tex]k=19[/tex]

substitute and solve for x

[tex]8*x=19[/tex]

Divide by 8 both sides

[tex]x=19/8[/tex]

[tex]x=2.375[/tex]

Part 5) y varies inversely with x, and k (the constant of variation) = 23. What is the value of y when x = 7?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]x=7[/tex]

[tex]k=23[/tex]

substitute and solve for y

[tex]y*7=23[/tex]

Divide by 7 both sides

[tex]y=23/7[/tex]

[tex]y=3.3[/tex]

Part 6) y varies inversely with x. When y = 6.7, x = 1. What is the value of k, the constant of inverse variation?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]y=6.7[/tex]

[tex]x=1[/tex]

substitute and solve for k

[tex]6.7*1=k[/tex]

[tex]k=6.7[/tex]

Part 7) y varies inversely with x. When y = 9.6, x = 12. What is the value of k, the constant of inverse variation?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]y=9.6[/tex]

[tex]x=12[/tex]

substitute and solve for k

[tex]9.6*12=k[/tex]

[tex]k=115.2[/tex]

Part 8) y varies inversely with x, and k (the constant of variation) = 5.6. What is the value of y when x = 4?

we have

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

[tex]x=4[/tex]

[tex]k=5.6[/tex]

substitute and solve for y

[tex]y*4=5.6[/tex]

Divide by 4 both sides

[tex]y=5.6/4[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, I hope this helps, I'm in high school LOL.

Use these, they help to figure this out:

a + b > c

b is the longest side, or hypotenuse. c would be the base.

We have to make sure that c is less than what a + b is.

Plug the numbers in:

2.7 + 4.8 > 8.6

4.8 plus 2.7 is 7.5 cm.

So, 7.5 > 8.6

Obviously, 7.5 is less than 8.6 so 7.5 > 8.6 does not work at all.

That tells you that no triangles can be formed. So, it's none.

Problem-solving is the act of defining a problem; figuring out the purpose of the trouble; identifying, prioritizing, and selecting alternatives for an answer; and imposing an answer.

Problem-solving starts with identifying the issue. As an example, a trainer may need to parent out a way to improve a scholar's overall performance on a writing talent test. To do that, the instructor will overview the writing exams looking for regions for improvement.

Hope This Helped :}

Neither of the given numbers (325,25 and 1.58) have a thousands place. This would typically be represented by the digit to the left of the hundreds place.

The student has asked about the thousands place in a pair of numbers. Looking at the numbers provided (325,25 and 1.58), neither of these numbers actually have a thousand place digit. In a number, the thousands place digit is the digit to the left of the hundreds place. For example, in the number 6528, which is from an arithmetic operation given in the reference information (6527.23 + 2 = 6528.23), the 6 represents 6 thousands, or 6000.

Answer:

f(x) = -5x + 250

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets  explain how to solve the problem

- In week 10 the manufacturer fixed 200 cars

- In week 15, the manufacturer fixed 175 cars

- the reduction in the number of cars each week is linear

- The form of the linear equation is y = mx + c, where m is the slope of

 the line which represent the equation and c is the y-intercept

- The slope of the line m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

  where (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are two points on the line

* Lets solve the problem

- Assume that the weeks' number is x and the cars' number is y

∴ (10 , 200) and (15 , 175) are two points on the line which represent

  the linear equation between the cars' numbers and the weeks

  numbers

∵ Point (x1 , y1) is (10 , 200) and point (x2 , y2) is (15 , 175)

∴ x1 = 10 , x2 = 15 and y1 = 200 and y2 = 175

- Use the rule of the slope above to find m

∴ [tex]m=\frac{175-200}{15-10}=\frac{-25}{5}=-5[/tex]

- Substitute the value of x in the form of the linear equation above

∴ y = -5x + c

- To find c substitute x and y by one the coordinates of one of the

  two points

∵ x = 10 when y = 200

∴ 200 = -5(10) + c

∴ 200 = -50 + c

- Add 50 to both sides

∴ 250 = c

- Substitute the value of c by 250

∴ y = -5x + 250, where the number of cars seen each week is y and

  x is the number of the week

∵ f(x) = y

∴ f(x) = -5x + 250

Answer:

B f(x) = −5x + 250
