5. The price for
seedless oranges is $1.55 for the first
pound and $0.75 for each additional pound. Paul Paid $
5.35 to buy sour oranges.
How many pounds of seedless oranges did he buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5 1/15 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:

5.35 = 1.55 + 0.75x       [tex]\longmapsto\\[/tex]       Subtract 1.55 from both sides

3.8 = 0.75x            [tex]\longmapsto[/tex]         Divide both sides by 0.75

Suppose `h\left(t\right)=-5t^{2}+10t+3`is an expression giving the height of a diver above the water (in meters), t seconds after the diver leaves the springboard.



a. How high above the water is the springboard? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The height of the springboard above the water should be h(0) : Read, the height at t = 0

h(0) = -5(0) + 10(0) + 3

h(0) = 0 + 0 + 3

h(0) = 3

a) 3 meters

b)  The time it takes the diver to hit water should be, the positive 0 solution for t.  Remember, in a quadratic equation,  there are two values for t where a parabola crosses the horizontal axis, which in this case would be t.  Just by looking at the function, h(t) = -5t2 + 10t + 3 , one should be able to see that it cannot be factored easily, so it requires the Quadratic Formula to find the zeros ; x = -b ±√(b2-4ac)  / 2a

Substitute t for x, and use the coefficients for a, b, c:

t  =  (-10 ± √((102 - 4(-5)(3)))/2(-5)

t = (-10 ±√(100 + 60))/-10

t = (-10 ±√160)/-10) ; Now factor the 160 to simplify:

t = (-10 ±√(10*16))/-10

t = (-10 ±4√10)/-10 ; Factor out leading coefficient of -2 from the numerator:

t = -2(5 ± 2√10)/-10

t = (5 ± 2√10)/5

Using a calculator to find the zeros, and disregarding the negative zero (because t starts at 0):

t ≈ 2.265

b) approx. 2.265 seconds for diver to hit water.

c) To find this, set the function equal to 3 to find what other value for t would be equal to 3 (we know one is 0).

-5tt + 10t + 3 = 3

-5t2 + 10t = 0 ; factor out t

t(-5t + 10) = 0

We know t = 0:

We also know that -5t + 10 = 0

-5t = -10

t = 2

c) 2 seconds. This is the time that diver would equal height of t=0 which is where he started, and where he equals the height of the springboard.

d and e) The peak of the dive (parabola), is determined using the formula h = -b/2a (Derived from the Quadratic Formula) to find the y value (in this case, the h value, answering e) and then using that result in the function to find the x value (in this case, the t value answering d) of the point where the parabola (dive path) reaches a maximum(height), or minimum(in upward opening parabolas).

h = -10/2(-5)

h = -10/-10

h = 1

h(1) = -5(1)2 + 10(1) + 3

h(1) = -5 + 10 + 3

h(1) = 8

d) At t = 1 second, diver will have reached peak of dive.

e) At t = 1 second, diver will have reached a maximum height of 8 meters.

Factoring x2-6x+5

The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -6x its coefficient is -6 .
The last term, "the constant", is +5

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 5 = 5

Step-2 : Find two factors of 5 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -6 .

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving x2-6x+5 = 0 directly
Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1 Find the Vertex of y = x2-6x+5

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 3.0000

Plugging into the parabola formula 3.0000 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :
y = 1.0 * 3.00 * 3.00 - 6.0 * 3.00 + 5.0
or y = -4.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 3.00}
Vertex at {x,y} = { 3.00,-4.00}

Root 1 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}
Root 2 at {x,y} = { 5.00, 0.00}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the number of hamburgers. Then h+63 is the number of cheeseburgers, and the combined total is ...

  h +(h +63) = 813

  2h = 813 -63 = 750

  h = 750/2 = 375

375 hamburgers were sold on Saturday.

In a "sum and difference" problem like this, the smaller number is half the difference between the sum and the difference. h = (813 -63)/2 = 375. This generic solution applies to all "sum and difference" problems.

This is a combination question question it has to do with selection.

In order to group 2 men from 15 men, this can be expressed using the combination formula as shown;

15C2 = 15!/(15-2)!2!

15C2 = 15!/13!2!

15C2 = 15×14/2

15C2 = 105 ways

Similarly in order to group 2 women from 12 men, this can be expressed using the combination formula as shown;

12C2 = 12!/(12-2)!2!

12C2 = 12!/10!2!

Answer:

K) I, II, and III

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation in standard form, h = -at² + bt + c, where h is the height or the projectile of a baseball that changes over time, t.  In the given quadratic equation, c represents the constant term. Altering the constant term, c, affects the h-intercept, the maximum value of h, and the t-intercept of the quadratic equation.  

I. The h-intercept

The h-intercept is the value of the height, h, when t = 0. This means that setting t = 0 will leave you with the value of the constant term. In other words:

Set t = 0:

h = -at² + bt + c

h = -a(0)² + b(0) + c

h = -a(0) + 0 + c

h = 0 + c

h = c

Therefore, the value of the h-intercept is the value of c.

Hence, altering the value of c will also change the value of the h-intercept.

II. The maximum value of h

The maximum value of h occurs at the vertex, (t, h ). Changing the value of c affects the equation, especially the maximum value of h. To find the value of the t-coordinate of the vertex, use the following formula:

t = -b/2a

The value of the t-coordinate will then be substituted into the equation to find its corresponding h-coordinate. Thus, changing the value of c affects  the corresponding h-coordinate of the vertex because you'll have to add the constant term into the rest of the terms within the equation. Therefore, altering the value of c affects the maximum value of h.

III. The t-intercept

The t-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the t-axis, and is also the value of t when h = 0. The t-intercept is the zero or the solution to the given equation. To find the t-intercept, set h = 0, and solve for the value of t.  Solving for the value of t includes the addition of the constant term, c, with the rest of the terms in the equation.  Therefore, altering the value of c also affects the t-intercept.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option K: I, II, and III.
