Find a and b if the point p(6,0) and Q(3,2) lie on the graph of ax+ by=12

Answers

Answer 1

to get the equation of any straight line we only need two points off of it, hmmm let's use P and Q here and then let's set the equation in standard form, that is

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

[tex](\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{0}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{3}-\underset{x_1}{6}}}\implies \cfrac{2}{-3}\implies -\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{0}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{2}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{6})[/tex]

[tex]\stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{3}}{3(y-0)~~ = ~~3\left( -\cfrac{2}{3}(x-6) \right)}\implies 3y=-2(x-6) \\\\\\ 3y=-2x+12 \implies \stackrel{a}{2} x+\stackrel{b}{3} y=12[/tex]

An object is thrown off a 256-foot-tall building, and the distance of the object from the ground is measured every second. The function that models the height, h, of the object after t seconds is h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 256. Determine the time when the object hits the ground

Answers

Answer:

The object hits the ground 8 seconds after launch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]h(t) =-16\cdot t^{2}+96\cdot t + 256[/tex], where [tex]h[/tex] is the height of the object above the ground, measured in feet, and [tex]t[/tex] is time, measured in seconds. We notice that given expression is a second-order polynomial and hence, there are two roots, one of them corresponding to the instant when the object hits the ground. If [tex]h(t) = 0[/tex], we get the following expression:

[tex]-16\cdot t^{2}+96\cdot t +256 = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Roots are found by applying the Quadratic Formula:

[tex]t_{1,2} = \frac{-96\pm\sqrt{96^{2}-4\cdot (-16)\cdot (256)}}{2\cdot (-16)}[/tex]

[tex]t_1 = 8\,s[/tex] or [tex]t_{2} = -2[/tex]

Only the first root offer a solution that is physically reasonable. Thus, the object hits the ground 8 seconds after launch.

An expert diver is looking for a particular species of fish along the coast line. He dives 25 feet below the surface of the ocean. Then he dives down 10 more feet. He swims back up 7 feet and down another 3 feet before he finds the species of fish he is looking for. What was the depth at which the diver finds the fish?

Answers

Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

Depth Changes:

1. down 25 feet

2. down 10 feet

3. up 7 feet

4. down 3 feet

If we form this into an equation, we get:

Answer:

B) Exactly one solution. (-3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8 - 7x = -4x + 1

combine like terms

5x - 7x + 8 = -4x + 1

-2x + 8 = -4x + 1

add 4x to both sides

-2x + 4x + 8 = -4x + 1 + 4x

2x + 8 = 1

subtract 8 from both sides

2x + 8 - 8 = 1 - 8

2x = -7

divide both sides by 2.

x = -3.5

3.5, clearly, is only one number.

Answers

Answer: C. Rickys rate was 0.25 more per hour" .

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan received $27 for 6 hours of work. Susan's rate we hour will be:

= $27/6

= $4.5

Ricky received $14.25 for 3 hours of work. Ricky's rate will be:

= $14.25/3

= $4.75

From the option given, the correct option is C "Rickys rate was 0.25 more per hour" .

This is because $4.75 - $4.5 = $0.25

only 7/12 attended Calvin Middle School

To get the number of students that missed Calvin Middle School = 1 -  number of students that attended Calvin Middle School

= 1 - 7/12 = (12-7) / 12

The local meteorologist claims that the temperature is going to steadily drop over the next 4 hours.

Explain how you got your answer in two or more complete sentences. plz answer with a real answer will give brainlyest

Answers

Answer:

-7°F/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total change is -28°F, and we know it took 4 hours, we just have to divide the total change by hours taken to get the change per hour.

So we do the following: [tex]\frac{-28F}{4} = -7F/h[/tex]

So the temperature changes (drops) by -7°F/hour.

A. The digit in the tens place moves to the hundredths place.
B. The digit in the tens place moves to the thousandths place.
C. The digit in the hundredths place moves to the tens place.
D. The digit in the hundredths place moves to the hundreds place

Answers

Answer: C. The digit in the hundredths place moves to the tens place.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 21.63,

place value of 2 = tens

Place value of 1 = ones

Place value of 6 = tenths

Place value of 3 = hundredths

21.63 × 10^3 = 21.63 × 1000 = 21630

From here , we can see that the digit in the hundredths place which is 3 has moved to the tens place.

Therefore, C is the answer.

Arbara signed up for dance lessons at Dance Unlimited. She was charged $55 per month for lessons and a one-time recital fee of $165. The equation represents the $495 total cost that Barbara paid to Dance Unlimited. 495 = 165 + 55m How many months, m, did Barbara receive dance lessons from Dance Unlimited?

Answers

Given:

Per month fee = $55

One-time recital fee = $165

The equation represents the $495 total cost that Barbara paid to Dance Unlimited.

[tex]495=165+55m[/tex]

To find:

We need to find the number of month Barbara receive dance lessons from Dance Unlimited.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]495=165+55m[/tex]

Here, m is number of months. We need to isolate m.

Subtract 165 from both sides.

[tex]495-165=55m[/tex]

[tex]330=55m[/tex]

Divide both sides by 55.

[tex]\dfrac{330}{55}=m[/tex]

[tex]6=m[/tex]

The value of m is 6. So, the required number of month Barbara receive dance lessons from Dance Unlimited is 6.

A culture of bacteria has an initial population of 12000 bacteria and doubles every 6 hours. Using the formula P_t = P_0\cdot 2^{\frac{t}{d}}P t ​ =P 0 ​ ⋅2 d t ​ , where P_tP t ​ is the population after t hours, P_0P 0 ​ is the initial population, t is the time in hours and d is the doubling time, what is the population of bacteria in the culture after 17 hours, to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer:

85,524 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the population of bacteria modelled by the equation where;

[tex]P_t = P_0\cdot 2^{\frac{t}{d}[/tex]

P0 is the initial population

t is the time in hours

d is the doubling time

If the culture of bacteria has an initial population of 12000 bacteria, this means that;

at t = 0, P0 = 12000

substitute into the modelled function

[tex]P_t = P_0\cdot 2^{\frac{t}{d}\\\\P_t = 12000\cdot 2^{\frac{0}{d}\\\\\\P_t =12000\cdot 2^{0}\\\\P_t = 12000[/tex]

If the population doubles every 6 hours

at t = 6, Pt = 24000

[tex]P_t = P_0\cdot 2^{\frac{t}{d}\\\\\\24000 = 12000\cdot 2^{\frac{6}{d}\\\\\\\\24000/12000 = 2^{\frac{6}{d}\\\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]2 = 2^{\frac{6}{d} }\\1 = 6/d\\d = 6\\[/tex]

Next is to get the population of bacteria in the culture after 17 hours

at t = 17, Pt = ?

[tex]P_t = P_0\cdot 2^{\frac{t}{d}\\\\P_t = 12000\cdot 2^{\frac{17}{6}\\\\\\\\P_t = 12000\cdot 2^{ 2.833 }\\P_t = 12000\cdot 2^{ 2.833 }\\P_t = 12000 * 7.127\\P_t = 85,524.3[/tex]

Hence the population of bacteria in the culture after 17 hours, to the nearest whole number is 85,524 bacteria

Answer:Pt 85526.2769 = 85526
