A swimmer swam the 50-meter freestyle in a time of 21 seconds. What was his speed to the nearest tenth of a meter per second?

In two or more complete sentences, compare the number of x-intercepts in the graph of f(x) =x2 to the number of x-intercepts in

Natalija [7]

Important: Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation:

"f(x) =x^2 to the number of x-intercepts in the graph of g(x) = x^2 +2."

Notes: the graph of f(x) = x^2 is a vertical parabola that opens up. It has its vertex at (0,0). This is the only point at which f(x)=x^2 has a horiz. intercept.

g(x) = x^2 + 2 has a graph that looks the same as that of f(x) = x^2, EXCEPT that the whole graph is moved 2 units UP. This new graph never touches or intersects the x-axis. Therefore, g(x) has NO horiz. intercepts (no x-int.).

Two bicyclists are 7/8 of the way through a mile long tunnel when a train approaches the closer end at 40 mph. The riders take o

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

the cyclists rode at 35 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the cyclists stopped, and accelerated instantaneously at the same speed than before but in opposite direction , then

distance= speed*time

since the cyclists and the train reaches the end of the tunnel at the same time and denoting L as the length of the tunnel :

time = distance covered by cyclists / speed of cyclists = distance covered by train / speed of the train

thus denoting v as the speed of the cyclists :

7/8*L / v = L / 40 mph

v = 7/8 * 40 mph = 35 mph

v= 35 mph

thus the cyclists rode at 35 mph

Which graph represents a function with direct variation? A coordinate plane with a line passing through (negative 4, 0) and (0,

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

A line passing through the points (-1,-4),(0,0) and (1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

Verify each case

Part 1) A line passing through the points (-4,0) and (0,-2)

This line not represent a direct variation, because the line not passes through the origin.

Part 2) A line passing through the points (-5,4) and (0,3)

This line not represent a direct variation, because the line not passes through the origin.

Part 3) A line passing through the points (-4,-6) and (0,3)

This line not represent a direct variation, because the line not passes through the origin.

Part 4) A line passing through the points (-1,-4),(0,0) and (1,4)

The line passes through the origin

Find out the value of k

$k=y/x$

For the point (-1,-4)

substitute

$k=-4/-1$

$k=4$

For the point (1,4)

substitute

$k=4/1$

$k=4$

The linear equation is

$y=4x$

This line represent a direct variation

Leo is constructing a tangent line from point Q to circle P. What is his next step? circle P and point Q on the outside of circl

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Construct a circle from point R with the radius RP

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a tangent, the following steps are required

1) A line is drawn connecting the point to the center of the circle to which the tangent is to be drawn

2) The perpendicular bisector of the line constructed to get the mid point of the line

3) From the midpoint of the line found in the step above the compass is adjusted to reach the center of the given circle and a circular arc is drawn across the circumference of the given circle

4) The point of intersection of the arcs and the circumference of the given circle are the tangent points

Therefore, the correct option is to construct a circle from point R with the radius RP.
