Maggie makes a scale drawing of a deck. The scale for the actual deck to the scale drawing is 7 ft
to 1 in. The dimensions of the deck are 28 ft by 17.5 ft. What are the dimensions of the deck in the
drawing? Show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The width is 2.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ratio is 7 ft to 1 in

Now we will have 17.5 to x in

x * 7 = 17.5 * 1

7x = 17.5

x = 17.5/7

x = 2.5 inches

what are the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial?

Answers

Answer:

leading coefficient: 2degree: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...

  6, 0, 7, 1

The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:

  2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4

The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

In the EXPLORE online library, the ratio of the number of novels to that of dictionaries is 2:3 and the total number of novels is 624. If Joe buys more novels and the ratio becomes 7:3, then how many novels have been bought in total?

Answers

Using a system of equations, it is found that 1530 more novels have been bought in total.

For the system, we have that:

x is the number of novels.y is the number of dictionaries.

The ratio of the number of novels to that of dictionaries is 2:3, hence:

[tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]3x = 2y[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{3x}{2}[/tex]

Total number of novels is 624, hence:

[tex]x = 624[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2} \times 624 = 936[/tex]

Buys z more novels, and the ratio becomes [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex], hence:

[tex]\frac{624 + z}{923} = \frac{7}{3}[/tex]

[tex]1872 + 3z = 6461[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{6461 - 1872}{3}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1530[/tex]

1530 more novels have been bought in total.

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.

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 813 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Saturday. There were 63 more cheeseburger sold than burgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Saturday?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  375 hamburgers

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.

Additional comment

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.

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

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 :

Root plot for : y = x2-6x+5
Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 3.00}
Vertex at {x,y} = { 3.00,-4.00}
x -Intercepts (Roots) :
Root 1 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}
Root 2 at {x,y} = { 5.00, 0.00}

Answers

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.
