A diver is currently at an elevation of -380 feet. Write an absolute value statement to express the diver's distance, in feet, from sea level. Then, interpret the result in this situation by explaining what this means for the diver.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The absolute value function:

f(x) = |x|

is defined as:

f(x) = x              if x ≥ 0

f(x) = -x             if x < 0.

Then, knowing that the elevation of the diver is -380 ft

We can write the absolute value of the distance as:

|-380ft| = -(-380ft) = 380ft

This means that the diver is at a distance of 380 ft from sea level. (And because we know that the sign is negative, we can conclude that he is 380ft below sea level).

PLZ HELP, DUE TONIGHT!! Find the values of a and b such that f(x) is continuous at x=

Answers

Answers:

a = 2 and b = -4

============================================================

Explanation:

Let's define the three helper functions

f(x) = ax^2 - bh(x) = 6j(x) = 5ax+b

which are drawn from the piecewise function. The g(x) function will change depending on what the input is.

If x < 1, then g(x) = f(x). If x = 1, then g(x) = h(x)If x > 1, then g(x) = j(x)

Since we want g(x) to be continuous at x = 1, this must mean the three functions f(x), h(x), j(x) must have the same output value when the input is x = 1.

Because h(x) = 6 is a constant function, the output is always 6 regardless of the input. Therefore, we want f(x) and j(x) to have 6 as their output when x = 1. Or else, the pieces won't connect.

Plug x = 1 into the f(x) function to get

f(x) = ax^2 - b

f(1) = a(1)^2 - b

f(1) = a - b

Set this equal to the desired output of 6 and we end up with the equation a-b = 6. Solving for 'a' leads to a = b+6.

------------

We'll use the same idea for j(x)

j(x) = 5ax + b

j(1) = 5a(1) + b

j(1) = 5a + b

5a+b = 6

5(b+6) + b = 6 ... plug in a = b+6; solve for b

5b+30+b = 6

6b+30 = 6

6b = 6-30

6b = -24

b = -24/6

b = -4

Which then leads to,

a = b+6

a = -4+6

a = 2

------------

Since a = 2 and b = -4, we go from this

[tex]g(x) = \begin{cases}ax^2-b, \ \ x < 1\\6, \ \ x = 1\\5ax+b, \ \ x > 1\end{cases}[/tex]

to this

[tex]g(x) = \begin{cases}2x^2+4, \ \ x < 1\\6, \ \ x = 1\\10x-4, \ \ x > 1\end{cases}[/tex]

Meaning

f(x) = 2x^2+4 and j(x) = 10x-4

You should find that plugging x = 1 into each of those two functions leads to 6 as the output.

The graph is shown below. Note the red graph f(x) is only drawn when x < 1. Similarly, j(x) is only drawn when x > 1. The orange point represents h(x) which only happens when x = 1. So as the name implies, the piecewise function g(x) is composed of pieces of the three functions f(x), h(x), j(x).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

its about 263.08!

Answer: about 263.08 sq meters (choice C)

====================================================

Explanation:

We'll use this formula

S = (x/360)*A

where,

S = area of pie slice, aka sectorx = central angle in degreesA = area of full circle

We'll plug in S = 85.5 and x = 117 to find solve for A.

S = (x/360)*A

85.5 = (117/360)*A

85.5*(360/117) = A

A = 85.5*(360/117)

A = 263.076923076923 which is approximate

A = 263.08 square meters (choice C)

------------

Side note: As the formula suggests, the x/360 portion is the fractional portion of the full area A. For example, if x = 180 degrees, then x/360 = 180/360 = 1/2, meaning we'll take half of the full circle area to get S.

Becky can wash 15 dishes in 5 minutes. How many dishes will she be able to wash in 8 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

24 is correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

its a 5:15 ratio, you are finding 8:x

8/5=1.6-> 1.6 x a5 = 24

Answer:

24 plates

Step-by-step explanation:

If she can wash 15 dishes in 5 minutes you just need to figure out how many dished she can washe in 1 minute. so you are gonna divide 15 by 5 and get 3 because 3 times 5 equals 15. so then that means she can wash 3 plates in 1 minute. so if she washed 15 in 5 in 6 minutes she can wash 18 and in 7 minutes she can wash 21 and in 8 minutes she can wash 24. Your just adding 3 to the 15 for every minute.

Use the given sequence to answer this following questions:
1, 6, 11, 16, 21, ...
1. Write a rule for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence. (Do not put any spaces between terms when writing the rule.)
2 find the tenth term.

Answers

Given:

The arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]1, 6, 11, 16, 21,...[/tex]

To find:

1. The rule for the nth term of the given arithmetic sequence.

2. The 10th term of the given arithmetic sequence.

Solution:

1. We have,

[tex]1, 6, 11, 16, 21,...[/tex]

Here, the first term is 1 and the common difference is:

[tex]d=a_2-a_1[/tex]

[tex]d=6-1[/tex]

[tex]d=5[/tex]

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

Where, a is the first term and d is the common difference.

Putting [tex]a=1,\ d=5[/tex], we get

[tex]a_n=1+(n-1)5[/tex]

[tex]a_n=1+5n-5[/tex]

[tex]a_n=5n-4[/tex]

Therefore, the nth term of the given sequence is [tex]a_n=5n-4[/tex].

2. We need to find the 10th term of the given arithmetic sequence.

From part 1 it is clear that the nth term of the given arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_n=5n-4[/tex]

Putting [tex]n=10[/tex], we get

[tex]a_{10}=5(10)-4[/tex]

[tex]a_{10}=50-4[/tex]

[tex]a_{10}=46[/tex]

Therefore, the 10th term of the given arithmetic sequence is 46.

2) x = 111°

3) x = 5

4) m∠3 = 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

1) All of the angles display ∠P, you will noticed this if you go from the first letter point and it goes to ∠P and to the last letter point with only including ∠P.

2) I already solved this one in a different post of yours. Subtract all known values from 180° to get your answer.

3) Use the same principle knowing that all sides of a triangle add up to 180°. Add all of the angles together, set the equation to 180 and solve for x.

4) By the Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem, If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then alternate exterior angles are congruent. Therfore, m∠6 ≡ m∠2, and we know m∠2. Solve by subtracting 108° from 180° because angles on the same line add up to 180°.
