Cassidy's diving platform is 6 ft above the water. One of her dives can
be modelled by the equation d = x2 - 7x + 6, where d is her position
relative to the surface of the water and x is her horizontal distance from
the platform. Both distances are measured in feet. How deep did Cassidy
go before coming back up to the surface?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Before coming back up to the surface the maximum depth, Cassidy went was 6.25 ft. below the water surface

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of Cassidy's diving platform above the water = 6 ft.

The equation that models her dive is d = x² - 7·x + 6

Where;

d = Her vertical position or distance from the water surface

x = Here horizontal distance from the platform

At Cassidy's maximum depth, we have;

dd/dx = d(x² - 7·x + 6)/dx = 2·x - 7 = 0

x = 7/2 = 3.5

∴ At Cassidy's maximum depth, x = 3.5 ft.

The maximum depth, [tex]d_{max}[/tex] = d(3.5) = 3.5² - 7 × 3.5 + 6 = -6.25

The maximum depth, Cassidy went before coming back up to the surface = [tex]d_{max}[/tex] = -6.25 ft = 6.25 ft. below the surface of the water.

Concept: Sequences & Series

The hint here is to try to find the common factor, you asked us to solve 1 so see the solution below.

1,-3,9, -27 : We see a common base of 3 hence we can find that the series representation is [tex]( - 3) ^{n-1} [/tex]

Next we can find the next 3 terms by just plugging in the values

We want the 6th, 7th, and 8th term

So we plug 6 in for n and 7 in for n and 8 in for n

So we get the 6th term=-243

The 7th term= 729

The 8th term= -2187

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 1 , -3 , 9 , -27 , 81 ,...........

It is Geometric sequence

ratio = 2 term ÷ first term = -3 ÷ 1 = -3

1st term = 1

2nd term = 1 * -3 = -3

3rd term = -3 *(-3) = 9

4th term = 9 *(-3) = - 27

6th term = 81 *(-3) = -243

7th  term = -243 *(-3) =  729

8th term = 729 *(-3) = -2187

Next 3 terms:  - 243 , 729 , - 2187,....

4)

Next 3 terms are : 3/32 , 7/128 , 1/32

Sean mixes coconut oil with several other ingredients to make homemade toothpaste for his dog Rocky. He uses 1/2 cup of coconut oil to make 2/3 cup of toothpaste. How much coconut oil does Sean use per cup of toothpaste?

Answers

Answer:

3/4 cup of coconut

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] cup of coconut for [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] cup of toothpaste

Required

Determine how much oil for a cup of toothpaste

Represent Coconut with C and Toothpaste with T;

So,

When

[tex]C = \frac{1}{2}\ \ T = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

We're to solve for

C when T = 1

This can be represented as:

[tex]\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex] --- 1/2 to 2/3

[tex]C = 1[/tex]

Cross Multiply:

[tex]C * \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{2} * 1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{3}C = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Solve for C

[tex]C = \frac{1}{2}/\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]C = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]C = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

This means Sean needs 3/4 cup of coconut oil

Gary's pay is $15 per hour. He receives a 6% pay raise.

Answers

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Gary's pay is $15 per hour. He receives a 6% pay raise.

Which method can Gary use to correctly calculate his new hourly pay rate?

Choose Yes or No for each method.

Answer:

Multiply 15 by 0.06 and add the result to 15 is the correct method

Step-by-step explanation:

Now when you are told to obtain the percentage, it simply means to multiply the given percentage by the number.

Here is what i mean;

6% of 15 simply means

6/100 * 15

Or

0.06 * 15 = 0.9

Since his basic pay of $15 was increased by this percentage, we have to add $0.9 so we have;

15 + 0.9 = $ 15.9

Thomas can process a pile of paperwork in 4 hours less time than Frank. Together they can process the pile in 2.1 hours. How long would it take Frank to do the job alone?

Answers

Answer:

F = 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken by Frank to work alone be F.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation;

Thomas alone takes (F - 4) hours.

Combine time = 2.1 hours

Their individual work rate expressed in piles per hour are;

Frank = 1/F

Thomas = 1/(F - 4)

Combined rate = 1/F + 1/(F - 4)

Simplifying the equation, we have;

Combined rate = (F - 4 + F)/F(F - 4)

Combined rate = (2F - 4)/F(F - 4)

Combined rate = (2F - 4)/(F²- 4F)

Now to find the time taken when they work together is;

(2F - 4)/(F²- 4F) = 1/2.1

Cross-multiplying, we have;

2.1*(2F - 4) = F² - 4F

4.2F - 8.4 = F² - 4F

Rearranging the equation, we have;

F² - 4.2F - 4F + 8.4 = 0

F² - 8.2F + 8.4 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation by factorization;

Factors = -7 and -1.2

F² - 7F - 1.2F + 8.4 = 0

F(F - 7) - 1.2(F - 7) = 0

(F - 7)(F - 1.2) = 0

Therefore, F = 7 or 1.2 hours

The time taken by Frank alone would be 7 hours.

What is the approximate circumference of the circle shown below

Answers

Answer: A) 46.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 2 π r or Circumference = π d

In this case, they give us the diameter = 14.8 cm. Therefore the radius = 14.8/2 = 7.4 cm.

π ≈ 3.14.

We can use either equation above, but because the diameter was given, we will use c = πd for simplicity.

C = π d

= (3.14)(14.8)

= 46.47 cm, which rounds to 46.5 cm
