A railroad crew can lay 7 miles of track each day. They need to lay 203 miles of track. The length, L (in miles), that is left t

o lay after d days is given by the
following function.
L(d) = 203 - 7d​
(How many days will it take the crew to lay all the track?)
(How many miles of track does the crew have left to lay after 18 days?)

Answer:

It will take 29 days to lay the track

After 18 days the crew still has 77 miles of track left to lay

Step-by-step explanation:

203÷7

=29 days

L= 203 - 7(18)

L= 203 - 126

L= 77

A basketball shot is taken from a horizontal distance of 5m from the hoop. The height of the ball can be modelled by the relatio
olasank [31]
This is the concept of application of quadratic expressions. Given that the height of the ball is modeled by the equation;
h=-7.3t^2+8.25t+2.1+5
The time taken for the ball to hit the ground will be given as falls;
-7.3t^2+8.25t+7.1=0
to solve for t we use the quadratic formula;
t=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/(2a)
a=-7.3, b=8.25, c=2.1
t=[-8.25+/-sqrt[8.25^2+4*7.3*7.1]/(-2*7.3)
t= -0.572
or
t=1.702
since there is not negative time we take the time taken for the ball to hit the ground will be: t=1.702 sec

irina [24]

Answer:

77

Step-by-step explanation:

$2790 is shares equally between 3 committees. each committee would get - $2790 / 3 = $930

If a shirt costs $12 and the Sports Committee gets $930, the committee would get $930 / $12 = 77.5

The committee cannot get half a shirt, so the greatest number of shirt that can be purchased is 77

The standard diameter of a golf ball is 42.67 mm. A golf ball factory does quality control on the balls it manufactures. Golf ba
Inga [223]
Standard diameter of golf ball = 42.67 mm


Maximum discrepancy accepted = 0.002 mm.


There are several ways to express that situation.


Calling x the diameter of any ball, these are the main two ways, one using the function absolute value and other without uisng it.


1)  Without using the function absolute value:

42.67 mm - 0.02mm ≤ x ≤ 42.67 mm + 0.002 mm

     42.65 mm ≤ x ≤ 42.69


2) Using the function absolute value


Subtract 42.67 mm on the three parts of the relation of above:

    - 0.02 mm ≤ x - 42.67 mm ≤  0.02

     | x - 42.67mm| ≤ 0.02 mm
