Write a function that could be used to calculate the altitude of a plane arriving at JFK
International airport which was cruising at an altitude of 30,000 before it began its descent at a rate of 3,200 feet per minute. How many minutes would it be before the plane landed. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The plane landed after 9.4 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Function Modeling

The initial altitude of a plane arriving at JFK International Airport is 30,000 ft.

It then began its descent at a rate of 3,200 feet per minute.

Let's call t the number of minutes since the descent started. If each minute the plane descends 3,200 feet, then after t minutes it descends 3,200t.

This must be subtracted from the initial altitude, thus the altitude H is written as:

H = 30,000 - 3,200t

When the plane landed, its altitude was H=0, thus:

0 = 30,000 - 3,200t

Adding 3,200t:

3,200t = 30,000

Dividing by 3,200:

t = 30,000/3,200

t = 9.375 minutes

Rounding to the nearest tenth:

The plane landed after 9.4 minutes.

What in mathematics is a linear equation?

There are only one or two variables in a linear equation. No variable can be multiplied by a number larger than one or used as the denominator of a fraction in a linear equation. All of the points fall on the same line when you identify the values that together make a linear equation true and plot those values on a coordinate grid.

Find the average rate of change of

Answers

The approximate rate of change of the function is 224.95

Rate of change of function

The rate of change of the given function is expressed according to the equation below;

f'(x) = f(b)- f(a)/b-a

Given the interval [-4, 3]

a = -4

b = 3

f(a) = 9(-4)⁴ + 7/(-4)²

f(-4) = 2304+ 7/16

f(-4) = 2304.4375

f(b) = 9(3)⁴ + 7/(3)²

f(3) = 729 + 7/9

f(3) = 729.7778

Substitute to have:

f'(x) = 729.7778-2304.4375/3+4

f'(x) = 1574.65/7

f'(x) = 224.95

Hence the approximate rate of change of the function is 224.95

Answers

The statement that best describes the expression p-1(x) is (c) the amount for x grams

How to complete the statements?

The equation of the function is given as

P(n) = 0.2n + 5.3

(a) which statement best describes (p^-1) (x)?

The function is given as

P(n) = 0.2n + 5.3

This means that the inverse of the function is represented as p-1(n)

Hence, the statement that best describes the expression p-1(x) is (c) the amount for x grams

(b) The function p^-1 (x)

We have

P(n) = 0.2n + 5.3

Rewrite as

y= 0.2x + 5.3

Swap x and y

x = 0.2y + 5.3

Make y the subject

y = 5x - 26.5

Express as inverse function

p^-1(x) = 5x - 26.5

(c) The value of p^-1 (6.6)

We have

p^-1(x) = 5x - 26.5

This gives

p^-1(6.6) = 5 x 6.6 - 26.5

Answers

The least cost per unit of peanut butter is $0.095 for 20 ounces for ​$1.90 therefore option (B) will be correct.

What is the arithmetic operator?

Arithmetic operators are four basic mathematical operations in which summation, subtraction, division, and multiplication involve.,

Division = divide any two numbers or variable called division.

Given the four options of jars;

1) 16 ounces for ​$1.70

Cost per ounces = 1.70/16 = $0.10625

2) 20 ounces for ​$1.90

Cost per ounces = 1.90/20 = $0.095

3) 26 ounces for ​$3.33

Cost per ounce = 3.33/26 = $0.128

The least cost per ounce is $0.095 for 20 ounces for ​$1.90.

3x+4 < 4 pls some one help me pls it’s my last problem for my homework

Answers

Answer:

x < 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given this inequality:

3x + 4 < 4

And we want to solve it.

Solving inequalities is very similar to solving equations. We want to isolate the variable (in this case, x) on one side, while leaving the numbers on the other side.

To start, we can subtract 4 from both sides.

3x + 4 < 4

    -4     -4

__________________

3x < 0

Now, we have the numbers on one side and the variable on the other, but we aren't done yet, as we want to solve for the value of x, or 1x, not the value of 3x.

So, we'll need to divide both sides by 3.

a godown had a stock of cloth of Rs.160000. Due to a fire a part of the merchandise, wroth Rs. 20000, was completely destroyed. find the loss percent?

Answers

The loss percentage of cloth is 12.5%.

Stock of cloth = Rs. 1,60,000

worth of destroyed cloth = Rs. 20,000

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. It is denoted by the symbol %.

Percentage = Value/ Total value × 100%

Loss percentage = Loss/Total value × 100%

So, the loss percentage of cloth = 20,000/1,60,000 ×100%

                                                   = 0.125 × 100%

Answers

No student took both calculus and physics out of the 30 students.

Given that, total number of students are 30. Out of which 18 took calculus and 12 took physics. Then, we have to calculate how many took both calculus and physics. So, by using venn diagram we have,

Total number of students = 30

Students who took calculus = P(A) = 18

Students who took physics = P(B) = 12

Students who took both calculus and physics = P(A∩B) = x

Students who took only physics = P(B)-x = (12-x)

Students who took only calculus = P(A)-x = (18-x)

From venn diagram, we get

(18-x)+x+(12-x) = 30

18-x+x+12-x = 30

⇒ x = 0

∴ P(A∩B) = 0

Therefore, No student took both physics and calculus.

Slope form is y=mx+b

m is the slope, and b is the y intercept. If the line must pass through (0,0) then the y intercept would be zero.

This give you y=mx+0

Now to find the slope you need a perpendicular line to the previous line. This would mean you have to swap 1/4 which is the previous lines slope.

1/4 is a positive so make it a negative, -1/4

What is APR?

Suppose there is initial amount as P.

Taking how much percent of P is C, we get:

[tex]APR = \dfrac{C}{P} \times 100[/tex]

WE have been given that Jenna bought a new car for $37,000 and paid a 10% down payment and financed the remaining balance for 72 months with an APR of 6.5%

Assuming that she makes monthly payments, to determine the total interest Jenna pays over the life of the loan.

The cost = $37,000

Time = 72 months

APR = 6.5%

Then;

Interest = (37,000 x 6.5 x 2) /100

= $4810

Percentage of interest paid = (4810/37,000 ) x 100

A men’s traditional haircut at the Barbara spot cost $20 and a shave cost $25 there is an 8.25% state sales tax what is the total price that Cheyenne must pay if she gets his haircut and beard shaved and he tips the barber 25%

Answers

The total price that Cheyenne must pay if he gets his haircut and beard shaved $60.89

A sales tax is one that applies to the purchase of goods and services for consumers and to the sale of goods and services for businesses. It's a type of consumption tax, meaning it taxes people for spending money.

The formula for calculating the sales tax on a good or service is: selling price x sales tax rate, and when calculating the total cost of a purchase, the formula is:

total sale amount = selling price + sales tax.

Given that

spot cost = $20

shave cost =  $25

state sales tax = 8.25%

tips = 25%.

find out  the total price that Cheyenne pay.

total selling price = spot + shave cost

total selling price = $20 + $25

total selling price = $45

we know that

sales tax = selling price x sales tax rate

sales tax = $45 x 8.25%

sales tax = $45 x 8.25 / 100

sales tax = $3.7125.

Cost with sales tax = $45 + $3.7125

Cost with sales tax = $48.7125

Tip is calculated on total bill

Tip Total: $ 12.18

Total (Bill + Tip): $ 60.89

hence , total amount of $ 60.89 is that Cheyenne must pay if he gets his haircut and beard shaved with the bill and tip.
