The path of a diver is modeled by the function f(x)=−9x2+9x+1, where f(x) is the height of the diver (in meters) above the water and x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from the end of the diving board.


a. What is the height of the diving board?


The diving board is

meter(s) high.


b. What is the maximum height of the diver?


The maximum height of the diver is

meter(s).


c. Describe where the diver is ascending and where the diver is descending. Round your answers to the nearest tenth, if necessary.


The diver is ascending from

meter(s) to

meter(s) and descending from

meter(s) until hitting the water after approximately

meter(s).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) the diving board is 1m high.

B) maximum height of the diver is 3.25 meter(s)

C)i)the diver is a ascending from 0 metres to 0.5 metres.

II) the diver descends from 0.5 metres to 1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are given the function;

f(x) = −9x² + 9x + 1

Now, the height of the diving board will be when x = 0 metres. This is because at x = 0, the driver didn't jump.

Thus;

f(0) = -9(0²) + 9(0) + 1

f(0) = 1 m

Thus, the diving board is 1m high.

B) From quadratic equations, we can say that in the given function, we have as follows;

a = -9

b = 9

c = 1

Now, a < 0

This means that the parabola opens down and it's vertex formula will be used and value of x plugged into the given function to get the maximum height.

Thus, vertex is;

x = -b/2a

x = -9/(2 × -9)

x = 1/2

x = 0.5 m

Thus;

Max height = -9(0.5²) + 9(0.5) + 1

Max height = 3.25 m

The maximum height of the diver is 3.25 meter(s)

C) Since the parabola opens down, the diver is ascending from 0 metres to 0.5 metres.

Similarly, the diver descends from 0.5 metres to 1 m

Answer 2

The path of the diver is an illustration of a quadratic function.

The height of the diving board is 1 meterThe maximum height of the diver is 3.25 mThe diver ascends from 0 meters to 0.5 meters

The function is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = -9x^2 + 9x + 1}[/tex]

(a) The height of the diving board.

This is represented by the constant term in the function.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Height = 1}[/tex]

Hence, the height of the diving board is 1 meter

(b) The maximum height of the diver

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = -9x^2 + 9x + 1}[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\mathbf{f'(x) = -18x + 9}[/tex]

Set to 0

[tex]\mathbf{-18x + 9 = 0}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{18x = 9}[/tex]

Divide through by 18

[tex]\mathbf{x = 0.5}[/tex]

Calculate f(0.5)

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = -9x^2 + 9x + 1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f(0.5) = -9(0.5)^2 + 9(0.5) +1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f(0.5) = 3.25}[/tex]

Hence, the maximum height of the diver is 3.25 m

(c) The depth, the diver ascends to

In (b), we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x = 0.5}[/tex]

This means that, the diver ascends from 0 meters to 0.5 meters

The given decimal number is 0.828228222822228222228...

We need to identify whether the given decimal number is rational or irrational.

What are rational numbers and irrational numbers?

Rational Numbers

The term ratio came from the word ratio which means the comparison of any two quantities and is represented in the simpler form of a fraction. A number is considered a rational number if it can be expressed in the form of a/b where both a (numerator) and b(denominator) are integers. The denominator of a rational number is a natural number(a non-zero number). Integers, fractions including mixed fractions, recurring decimals, finite decimals etc all come under the category of rational numbers.

Irrational Numbers

A number is considered an irrational number if it cannot be able to simply further to any fraction of a natural number and an integer. The decimal expansion of irrational numbers is neither finite nor recurring. Irrational numbers include surds and special numbers such as π. The most common form of an irrational number is pi (π). A surd is a non-perfect square or cube which cannot be simplified further to remove the square root or cube root.

Since the given decimal number is a nonterminating and non-repeating decimal it is irrational.

A number has a 6 in the tenths place. The number also has a digit whose value is 1/10 the value of the 6 in the tenths place. Which could be the expanded form of the number?

Answers

Answer:

The expanded form of the number is

= 6 × 1/10 + 6 × 1/100

= 6/10 + 6/100

= 0.6 + 0.06

The number is = 0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

A number has a 6 in the tenths place. The number also has a digit whose value is 1/10 the value of the 6 in the tenths place. Which could be the expanded form of the number?

We are told that a number has 6 in its tenth place

This means

6/10 = 0.6

The number also has a digit whose value is 1/10 the value of the 6 in the tenths place.

This means

= 6/10 × 1/10 = 6/100

0.6 × 1/10

= 0.06

Hence, the expanded form

= 6 × 1/10 + 6 × 1/100

= 6/10 + 6/100

= 0.6 + 0.06

= 0.66

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangle ABC given in the picture,

Since, ∠BAC and ∠BCA are equal in measure, opposite sides of these angles will be equal.

AB = BC

Therefore, ΔABC is an isosceles triangle.

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

AB² + BC² = AC²

AB² + AB² = AC² [Since, AB = BC]

2(AB)² = AC²

2(AB)² = (26)²

AB² = [tex]\frac{676}{2}=338[/tex]

AB = [tex]\sqrt{338}[/tex]

AB = [tex]\sqrt{169\times 2}[/tex]

     = [tex]13\sqrt{2}[/tex] units

Therefore, Option (A) will be the answer.

If it took eight men ten hours to build a wall, how long will it take four men?

Answers

Answer:

I want to say 20

Step-by-step explanation:

4 is half of 8, so double the time and its 20.........

Since it took 10 hours for 8 men to build a wall. If you had 4 men build a wall it would most likely take twice as long than if there were 8 men due to less people.

So it would take 20 hours for 4 men to build a wall.

Roxanne is going to build a rectangular prism out of 36 one- inch cubes. She wants the height of the rectangular prism to be 3 inches, and she wants the width to be shorter than the length. How many rectangular prisms with different dimensions can she build?

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Roxanne has 36 one inch cubes, the maximum volume of rectangular prism she can have is 36 in³ = 1 in × 1 in × 36 in.

Now, if Roxanne wants a rectangular prism with height 3 inches, this implies that the area of its base is 36 in³/3 in = 12 in².

We now find all the factors of 12 = 1 × 12, 2 × 6, 3 × 4.

So, we have 3 different areas of base of rectangular prism in which the width is shorter than its length the width being the smaller dimension.

So, the different rectangular prisms in which the volume = 36 in³ in which the width is shorter than its length and has a height of 3 in is

1 × 12 × 3, 2 × 6 × 3, 3 × 4 × 3.

So we have 3 different rectangular prisms
