A swimming pool already contains
a small amount of water when you start filling it at a
constant rate. The pool contains 45 gallons of water after
5 minutes and 120 gallons after 30 minutes. Find the
average rate of change and use it to write a linear model
that relates the amount of water in the pool to the time.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Rate of change = 3 gallons/minute

Starting volume = 30 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph of the pool's water level would be useful.  The slope of the line would represent the rate of change for filling the pool.  It will also help us determine the amount of water that was in the pool to start.  Although it is tempting to say the rate of fill is 45gallons/5 minutes, or 9 gallons/minute, it is not correct.  The pool already started with an unknown volume of water.  The rate of change after 5 minutes, however, can be used.  The problem states it is being added at a constant rate.  Let's find an equation for a line, in the format of y=mx+b, where m is the slope (rate of change) and b is the y-intercept.

We'll let y represent the volume of water in the pool, and x will be the time in minutes.  The y-intercept will give us the amount of water in the pool at the start (x = 0).

The slope can be determined between the two given points:

(5,45) and (30,120):

Slope = Rise/Run [The change in y divided by the change in x].

Rise = (120 - 45) = 75

Run = (30-5) = 25

Slope = 75/25 or 3

The line, so far, becomes y=3x + b

The slope of 3 has units of gallons/minute.  It is the rate at which the pool is being filled.

We can find b, the starting volume of water, by using one of the two points in the equation and solving for b:

y=3x + b   [I'll use (5,45)]

45 = 3*(5) + b

b = 30 gallons

The pool had 30 gallons to start (at x = 0(minutes))

See the graph of the line, attached.

Why is it helpful to use the rational zero theorem in finding the zeros of polynomial function? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The rational roots theorem is a very useful theorem. It tells you that given a polynomial function with integer or whole number coefficients, a list of possible solutions can be found by listing the factors of the constant, or last term, over the factors of the coefficient of the leading term.

Hope that helps.

Answer:

Finding the Zeros of Polynomial Functions The Rational Zero Theorem helps us to narrow down the list of possible rational zeros for a polynomial function. Once we have done this, we can use synthetic division repeatedly to determine all of the zeros of a polynomial function. Given a polynomial functionuse synthetic division to find its zeros.

x - y = 1

Solve for x and y?​

Answers

Answer:

y=2

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

make x - y = 1 into x= y + 1

put that wherever x is in the other equation

so y + 1 + 2y =7. then combine like terms into 3y =6. then divide 6 by 3 so you get y = 2

then substitute 2 into the y in the equation x - y = 1 and you get x = 3

METHOD OF ELIMINATION:

Given pair of linear equations are:

x+2y= 7 – – – Eqn(i)

On comparing with a1x+b1y+c1 = 0

a1 = 1, b1 = 2, c1 = -7

x-y = 1 – – – Eqn(ii)

On comparing with a2x+b2y+c2 = 0

a2 = 1, b2 = -1 , c2 = -1

a1/a2 = 1/1 = 1

b1/b2 = 2/-1 = -2

c1/c2 = -7/-1 = 7

We have,

a1/a2 ≠ b1/b2 ≠ c1/c2

So, Given pair of linear equations in two variables have a unique solution.

Now,

On Subtracting eqn(ii) from eqn(i) then

x+2y = 7

x-y = 1

Answer: Therefore , the value of x and y with be (3,2) respectively.

Answers

From figure we have , ∠GFH = 80°  and ∠HGF = 60° , ∠GFH = 40° and ∠GFE = x°

Now,

In ∆HGF

Since Sum of the angles of a triangle is 180° :  

∠GFH + ∠HGF + ∠GFH = 180°

80° + 60° + 40° = 180°

14° + 40° = 180°

54° = 180° ………..(1)

∠GFH + ∠GFE = 180° [Linear pair]

80° + x° = 180°

x° = 180°-80°

x° = 100°

Hence the value of ∠x is 100°

Step-by-step explanation: (My way) If 20 questions equal 80%, then do 20/2 which equals 10. 10 is 40% because 20 was 80%, which was split in half. Now you do 10/2 which is 5. 10 was 40% so 40% got split into 20%. So then you have 5=20%, 10=40%. Now we multiply 10x2 which equals 20. 20=80% so now add 20+5 which is 25. 25 is 100%.

Solve: x²+5x-6 = 0
Answer please​

Answers

Given that:

x² + 5x - 6 = 0

Here we see that,

→ Product of coefficient of x² and constant term = 1 × 6 = 6

→Difference of the constant term and the coefficient of x² = 6 - 1 = 5

Now the given equation can be written as,

⇛x² + 6x - 1x - 6 = 0

(Here we simply applied the correc sign and splitted the middle term in two terms)

Now let's take the common terms

⇛x(x + 6) - 1(x + 6) = 0

On grouping we get,

⇛(x - 1)(x + 6) = 0

Here either (x - 1) = 0 or (x + 6) = 0 since the product is zero so anyóne of the terms should be zero.

⇛(x - 1) = 0 or (x + 6) = 0

⇛x - 1 = 0 or x + 6 = 0

⇛x = 1 or x = -6

8-kg lead brick falls from a height of 1.6 m.
(a) Find its momentum as it reaches the ground.
Ikg-m/s
(b) What Impulse is needed to bring the brick to rest?
N-s
(c) The brick falls onto a carpet, 2.0 cm thick. Assuming the force stopping it is constant, find the average force the carpet exerts on the brick
N
(d) If the brick falls onto a 6,0 cm foam rubber pad, what constant force is needed to bring it to rest?

Answers

The magnitude of the impulse needed to bring the brick to rest is given by the initial momentum of the brick.

The correct responses are;

(a) 44.8 kg·m/s(b) 44.8 N·s(c) 6,278.4 N(d) 2,092.8 N

Reasons:

The velocity of the brick as it reaches the ground is given by the formula;

v² = 2·g·h

v = √(2·g·h)

Where;

h = The height of the brick, h = 1.6 m

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Therefore;

v ≈ √(2 × 9.81 m/s² × 1.6 m) ≈ 5.6 m/s

(a) Momentum = Mass × Velocity

The momentum of the brick = 5.6 m/s × 8 kg = 44.8 kg·m/s

(b) Impulse = Force × Δt = Mass × Δv

Mass × Δv = 8 kg × (5.6 m/s - 0) = 44.8 kg·m/s = 44.8 N·s

Therefore, the impulse = 44.8 N·s

(c) The distance over which the carpet stops the brick = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m

Initial energy in the brick, E = m·g·h

Which gives;

E = 8 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 1.6 m = 125.568 J

Energy = Force × Distance

[tex]\displaystyle Force \ carpet \ exerts \ on \ brick, \ F = \frac{125.568 \, J}{0.02 \, m} = \mathbf{ 6,278.4 \, N}[/tex]

The average force the carpet exerts, F = 6,278.4 N

(d) If the brick falls on a foam which is 6.0 cm (thickness), we have;

Distance = 6.0 cm = 0.06 m

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle Force, \, F = \frac{125.568 \, J}{0.06 \, m} = \mathbf{2,092.8 \, N}[/tex]

The constant force needed to bring the brick to rest is, F ≈ 2,092.8 N
