Since the rate of descent is a constant this is a linear equation and can be expressed as:
h=vt+b, where h=feet, v=slope or rate, b=y-intercept (y value when x=0 which is the initial height)
h=-2t+b, using the point (3,67) we can solve for b, or the initial height
67=-2(3)+b
67=-6+b
73=b so the initial height was 73 ft and the height equation is then:
h(t)=67-2t so when t=8 you have:
h(8)=67-2(8)
h(8)=67-16
h(8)=51 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression
According to the law of logarithm;
loga + log b = log(ab) and log a - log b = log(a/b)
The given expression becomes;
Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can simplify ratios to one to find the answer
4 pounds is about 2 kilograms
2 pounds is about 1 kilogram
1 pound is about half a kilogram
9 pounds x 0.5 = 4.5
Answer:
y=10x+50
Explanation:
The line starts at point (0,50) which is the y intercept (how much he gets paid to visit house).The line crosses points (10,150) and (20,250) and the slope of these points are 100/10 which when simplified equals 10x which is how much money he gets paid by the hour(x=hours) so y=10x plus the y intercept y=10x+50
