Answer:

f(x)=-0.5x+40

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find the linear function. We know that the constant rate of change is -0.5° Celsius per minute. Also, after 60 minutes the temperature was 10° Celsius. So, we have a one point and the slope of the linear function, let's use the point-slope formula

y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )\\y-10=-0.5(x-60)\\y=-0.5x+30+10\\y=-0.5x+40

Where the y-intercept is at (0, 40).

Now, we have two points to graph the relation between minutes and Celsius degrees.

Therefore, the room's temperature as a function of time is

f(x)=-0.5x+40

Its graph is attached.

Graph the following equations in 4 different colors
marissa [1.9K]

The given equations are linear functions and represent straight lines.

The first equation F(x) = 2x , represent a straight line passing through the origin.

Now, we plot the rest equation using the transformation of the graph.

  • If we add a constant 'a' in the function then it gets shifted upward by 'a' units.
  • If we subtract a constant 'a' in the function then it gets shifted downward by 'a' units.

Using these properties, the second graph gets shifted upward by 6 units. Hence, it passes through (0,6)

Third graph will shift downward by 3 units. Hence, it passes through the point (0,-3)

Fourth graph will shift downward by 5 units. Hence, it passes through the point (0,-5)

The graph of these functions are shown in the same xy-plane in the attached file.

A waste management company is designing a rectangular construction dumpster that will be twice as long as it is wide and must ho
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The dimensions that minimize the surface are:

Wide: 1.65 yd

Long: 3.30 yd

Height: 2.20 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a rectangular base, that its twice as long as it is wide.

It must hold 12 yd^3 of debris.

We have to minimize the surface area, subjet to the restriction of volume (12 yd^3).

The surface is equal to:

S=2(w*h+w*2w+2wh)=2(3wh+2w^2)

The volume restriction is:

V=w*2w*h=2w^2h=12\\\\h=\frac{6}{w^2}

If we replace h in the surface equation, we have:

S=2(3wh+2w^2)=6w(\frac{6}{w^2})+4w^2=36w^{-1}+4w^2

To optimize, we derive and equal to zero:

dS/dw=36(-1)w^{-2} + 8w=0\\\\36w^{-2}=8w\\\\w^3=36/8=4.5\\\\w=\sqrt[3]{4.5} =1.65

Then, the height h is:

h=6/w^2=6/(1.65^2)=6/2.7225=2.2

The dimensions that minimize the surface are:

Wide: 1.65 yd

Long: 3.30 yd

Height: 2.20 yd

Pablo and Nadia are playing a game on a coordinate grid. Pablo puts a playing piece at point (-2, 3) and Nadia puts a playing pi
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The distance between the two playing pieces is of 6.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have two points:

A = (x_{1}, y_{1})

B = (x_{2}, y_{2})

The distance between these points is:

D = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}

Distance between:

A(-2,3) and B(3,-1)

D = \sqrt{(3 - (-2))^{2} + (-1 - 3)^{2}} = \sqrt{41} = 6.4

The distance between the two playing pieces is of 6.4 units.
