A hot air balloon leaves the ground and ascends at a rate of 5 feet per minute for 4 minutes.

Then descends at a rate of 2 feet per minute for 7 minutes. How far above the ground is the

balloon now?

Answers

Answer 1

When the balloon is on the ground, it is at point 0. It starts to go up at 5 f/m for a time of 4 minutes. So we will multiply 5 by 4 to get 20. At this point, the balloon is 20 feet off the ground. However, we now know that the balloon descends at 2 f/m at a time of 7 minutes. So we must multiply 2 by 7 to get 14. So we know it was at 20, and then it went down by 14.

20 - 14 = 6 feet

This means that the balloon is now 6 feet above the ground.

I hope I've helped! :)

2x = 8 is an equation.

We have,

Based on the given graph, point S represents the number of books and their cost using the subscription that charges per book (Option A).

This is because point S is located below line B, which represents the total cost of the subscription with a variable cost per book, and above line A, which represents the total cost of the subscription with a fixed annual fee.

Therefore,

Point S represents a combination of a certain number of books borrowed and the corresponding total cost of the subscription using the variable cost per book option.

If the price of a particular chocolate bar is increased by 40%, and it used to be $2, what is the new price after the increase?

Answers

Answer:

6$

Step-by-step explanation:

2+4=6

20%+40%=60%

The new price after the increase is $2.8 .

What is percent increase?

Percentage increase is the difference between the final value and the initial value, expressed in the form of a percentage. In other words, it is the difference between the final value and the initial value which is divided by the initial value and then multiplied by 100.

According to the question

The price of chocolate bar = $2

The price of a particular chocolate bar is increased by 40%,

i.e

The percent increase in the price of chocolate bar = 40%

Now,

increase prize :

= [tex]2*\frac{40}{100}[/tex]

= $0.8  

The new price after the increase

= $2.8

Hence, the new price after the increase is $2.8 .

Four points are P(0,4), Q(0,3), R(2,0), S(0,5). Which three of them are collinear?​

Answers

Answer: P, Q and S

In other words, everything but point R.

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

Explanation:

The term "collinear" means "points that fall on the same straight line". Any two points are always guaranteed to be collinear; however the same can't be said for any 3 random points.

In this case, points P, Q and S are all on the vertical y axis which is why they are collinear.

The graph is shown below.

Determine the corresponding general form of each of the following vertex form

1. y = (x– 1)2

A. y = x2+ x + 1
B. y = x2 – 2x – 1
C. y = x2 – 2x + 1

2. y = (x + 4)2– 5

A. y = x2+ 8x – 11
B. y = x2+ 8x – 21
C. y = x2+ 8x + 21

3. y = -(x + 9)2– 10

A. y = -x2– 18x + 91
B. y = -x2– 18x – 91
C. y = -x2– 18x – 71

4. y = 3(x + 2)2– 18

A. y = 3x2+ 12x – 6
B. y = 3x2+ 12x + 6
C. y = 3x2+ 12x – 14

5. y = -2(x + 1)2– 16

A. y = -2x2– 4x – 18
B. y = -2x2– 4x – 2
C. y = -2x2– 4x – 14

6. y = 5(x + 5)2

A. y = 5x2+ 50x + 125
B. y = 5x2+ 50x + 25
C. y = 5x2+ 25x + 125

7. y =1/2(x + 8)2– 8

A. y = 1/2x2 + 8x + 24
B. y= 1/2x + 8x – 40
C. y = 1/2x2 + 16x + 24

8. y = (x + 3/2)2 + 3/4

A. y = x2+ 3x + 2
B. y = x2 + 6/4x + 12/16
C. y = x2 + 3x + 3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a + b)² =a² + 2ab + b²

(a -b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

1) y = (x -1)²

 y= x² -  2*x*1 + 1

y = x² - 2x + 1    

Ans: C

2)y = (x +4)² + 5

y = x² +2*x*4 + 4² + 5

  = x² + 8x + 16 + 5

y = x² + 8x + 21

C

3) y = -(x + 9)²- 10

y = - [x² + 18x + 81] - 10

= -x² - 18x - 81 - 10

y =-x² - 18x - 91

B

4) y = 3(x + 2)² - 18

y =3 [x² + 4x + 4] - 18

y =  3x² + 12x  + 12 - 18

y =3x²  + 12x - 6

A

5) y = -2(x + 1)² - 16

       = -2[x² + 2x + 1] -16

       = -2x² - 4x - 2 - 16

     y = -2x² - 4x -  18

A

6) y = 5(x + 5)²

        =5[x²+ 10x + 25]

y = 5x² +50x + 125

A

7)y = (1/2)(x + 8)² - 8

  y = (1/2) (x² + 16x + 64) - 8

[tex]y = \dfrac{1}{2}*x^{2}+ \dfrac{1}{2}*16x + \dfrac{1}{2}*64 -8\\\\\\y =\dfrac{1}{2}x^{2}+8x +32 - 8\\\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{2}x^{2} +8x + 24[/tex]

A

8) y = (x + 3/2)² + 3/4

[tex]y = x^{2} +2*x*\dfrac{3}{2}+\dfrac{9}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\y=x^{2}+3x+\dfrac{12}{4}\\\\\\y=x^{2}+3x + 3[/tex]

C

9) y = 2[x² + 16x + 64] - 5x

y = 2x² + 32x + 64 - 5x

y =2x² + 27x + 6
