The number T of teams that have participated in a robot-building competition for high-school students over a recent period of time x(in years) can be modeled by T(x) = 17.155x^2 + 193.68x + 235.81, 0 ≤ x ≤ 6.

After how many years is the number of teams greater than 1000? Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Solving the quadratic equation, it is found that the number of teams is greater than 1000 after 3.1 years.

The number of teams after x years is given by:

[tex]T(x) = 17.155x^2 + 193.68x + 235.81[/tex]

Initially, there are T(0) = 236 teams. If will 1000 be when T(x) = 1000, thus:

[tex]17.155x^2 + 193.68x + 235.81 = 1000[/tex]

[tex]17.155x^2 + 193.68x - 764.19 = 0[/tex]

Which has coefficients [tex]a = 17.155, b = 193.68, c = -764.19[/tex], then:

[tex]\Delta = (193.68)^2 - 4(17.155)(-764.19) = 89950.66[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-193.68 + \sqrt{89950.66}}{2(17.155)} = 3.1[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-193.68 - \sqrt{89950.66}}{2(17.155)} = -14.3[/tex]  

We want the positive root, so the number of teams is greater than 1000 after 3.1 years.

explain how your know that 88is a solution to the equation 1/8 R = 11 complete the sentences
The word solution means to
88 is a solution to 1/8 R = 11 because

Answers

Answer:

In this equation R would equal 88 because it satisfies the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

You must solve for R by isolating the variable(which is R). To move the 1/8, multiply both sides by 8. You would do this because 8 is the reciprocal of 1/8. With R on it's own, to keep both sides equal multiply 11*8. That equals 88, which satisfies the equation, which is why 88 is the solution.

In the interval 0° < x < 360°, find the values of x for which sin x = 0.6691 Give your answer tot he nearest degree

Answers

Answer:

x are 42 and 138degees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression  sin x = 0.6691

sin x = 0.6691

Take the sin inverse of both sides

sin⁻¹(sin x) =  sin⁻¹(0.6691 )

x = sin⁻¹(0.6691 )

x = 41.99

x = 42 degrees (to the nearest degree)

Since sin theta is positive in the second quadrant;

x = 180 -theta

x = 180 - 42

x = 138degrees

Hence the value of x are 42 and 138degees

A deli is offering two specials. The roast beef special gives a profit of $2.30 per sandwich, and the turkey special gives a profit of $3.10 per sandwich. The roast beef special uses two slices of bread and three slices of cheese. The turkey special uses two slices of bread and four slices of cheese. The deli has 120 slices of bread and 160 slices of cheese available for the specials. The deli wants to maximize its profit selling specials. Let x represent the number of roast beef specials and y represent the number of turkey specials. What are the constraints for the problem?

Answers

Answer:

The constraints are as follows;

1) 2·x + 2·y ≤ 120

2) 3·x + 4·y ≤ 160

3) x = 2.30

4) y = 3.10

5) P = 2.3·x + 3.10

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a word problem, with the analysis as follows;

The profit from the roast beef special per sandwich = $2.30

The profit from the turkey special per sandwich = $3.10

The number of slices of bread in the roast beef special = Two slices

The number of slices of cheese in the roast beef special = Three slices

The number of slices of bread in the turkey special = Two slices

The number of slices of cheese in the turkey special = Four slices

The number of slices of bread the deli has  = 120 slices

The number of slices of cheese the deli has = 160 slices

Let 'x' and represent the number of roast beef special and 'y' represent the number of turkey special the deli makes, then we have the constraints as follows;

For the number of slices of bread used;

2·x + 2·y ≤ 120...(1)

For the number of slices of cheese used;

3·x + 4·y ≤ 160...(2)

x = 2.30

y = 3.10

The profit 'P' is given by the following equation

P = 2.3·x + 3.10.

And 2 units in each side corner which when combined would equal 2 whole units making it a total of 5. The rest of the shapes either hold more than 5 or less than 5 units. In the picture below, the top 3 shapes hold more than 5 units while the bottom two triangles hold less than 5.

Which of the statements about the graph is true? :((

Answers

Answer: D / none are true

Since it's proportional (it's a straight line), B and C are automatically wrong. A would seem true at first glance, BUT if you look closely at the graph, the slope of the graph is actually 2x.

Look at the beginning of the line. It starts at 18 (x = 0/y intercept) and at x = 1, you can see that y is at 16. The y value goes down by 2 every time x increases by 1. This means that the equation of the graph is -2x + 18 = y.

The graph is proportional and has an equation of y = -2x + 18. This means that A, B and C are incorrect.

Answer:

Your answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a straight line also known as proportional. The first impression, A appears to be accurate, but closer inspection reveals that the graph's slope is actually 2x. 18 (x = 0/y intercept) and ends at x = 1, where little y is at 16. Any time x expands by one, the y value falls by two. This says that the graph's equation is -2x + 18 = y.

The x-coordinate of the vertex of the function y=-x²+bx+3 is 10. Determine the y-coordinate of the vertex.

Answers

Answer:

103

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

y = -x² + bx + 3

The x-coordinate of a quadratic function y = ax² + bx + c is determined by:

x = -b/2a

The given function has:

x = 10, and a = -1

Find the value of b:

10 = -b / -2b = 20

The function is:

y = -x² + 20x + 3

The y-coordinate of the vertex is:

y = -(10²) + 20*10 + 3 = -100 + 200 + 3 = 103

Answer:

Solution given:

y = -x² + bx + 3

we have

The x-coordinate of a quadratic function y = ax² + bx + c is determined by:

x = [tex] \frac{ - b}{2a} [/tex]

we have

x = 10, and a = -1

Substituting value of a in -b/2a

we get

b = 20

now

The y-coordinate of the vertex is:

y = -(10²) +20*10+ 3 = -100 + 200 + 3 = 103 is your answer.
