Jacob is training for a marathon. His plan is to run the same distance for 3 days a week, then increase that distance by the sam

e amount each week of training. During week 6, Jacob runs 14 miles per day, which is 1.5 miles more per day than he ran during week 5. Which equation represents the daily running distance, in miles, as a function of time, t, in weeks?
a.f(t) = 0.5t + 7
b.f(t) = 0.5t + 11
c.f(t) = 1.5t + 5
d.f(t) = 1.5t + 12.5

Given:
Week 6 = 14 miles
Week 5 = 1.5 miles less than week 6.

1.5 miles is the common difference.

Week 6 = 14 miles
Week 5 = 12.5 miles
Week 4 = 11 miles
Week 3 = 9.5 miles
Week 2 = 8 miles
Week 1 = 6.5 miles

f(t) = first term + common difference(t-1)
f(t) = 6.5 miles + 1.5 miles (t-1)

f(1) = 6.5 + 1.5(1-1)
f(1) = 6.5 miles

f(2) = 6.5 + 1.5(2-1)
f(2) = 6.5 + 1.5
f(2) = 8 miles

An Adult ticket at an amusement park costs $24.95 and a child's ticket costs $15.95. A group of 10 people paid $186.50 to enter
leva [86]

Answer:

There were 3 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Derive the first expression

a+c=10...equation 1

where;

a=number of adults

c=number of children

And total number of people=10

Step 2: Derive the second expression;

Total cost of tickets=(price per child ticket×number of children)+(price per adult ticket×number of adults)

where;

Total cost of tickets=$186.50

price per child ticket=$15.95

price per adult ticket=$24.95

number of children=c

number of adults=a

replacing;

(15.95×c)+(24.95×a)=186.5

24.95 a+15.95 c=186.5....equation 2

Step 3: Combine equation 1 and 2 and solve simultaneously

24.95 a+15.95 c=186.5

-

24.95(a+c=10)

(24.95 a-24.95 a)+(15.95 c-24.95 c)=186.5-(24.95×10)

-9 c=-63

c=-63/-9

c=7

replace the value for c in equation 1

a+c=10

a+7=10

a=10-7

a=3

There were 3 adults

PLS HELP, 50 POINTS!!!
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Part A: From 0 to 2 seconds, the height of the water balloon increases from 60 to 75 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is increasing during the interval [0,2]

Part B: From 2 to 4 seconds, the height of the water balloon stays the same at 75 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is the same during the interval [2,4] From 10 to 12 seconds, the height of the water balloon stays the same at 0 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is the same during the interval [10,12] From 12 to 14 seconds, the height of the water balloon stays the same at 0 feet, therefore the water balloon's height is the same during the interval [12,14] 

Part C: The interval, [4,6] of the domain is when the water ballon's height decreases the fastest. The interval [4,6] decreases by 35 feet. The two other intervals that decrease are [6,8] and [8,10] which both have the same slope. They decrease by 20 feet. Therefore, this helps us conclude that the interval [4,6] decreases the fastest because 35 feet is a more significant decrease than 20 feet. 

Part D: I predict that the height of the water balloon at 16 seconds is 0 feet. This is because at 10-14 seconds, the water balloon's height is 0 feet. In read-world situations, if the water balloon is on the ground which is 0 feet, it stays on the ground due to gravity. 

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps! I also do not know if it is all correct but I did research and everything so hopefully it is correct! Good luck!
