Ray and Kelsey have summer internships at an engineering firm. As part of their internship, they get to assist in the planning of a brand new roller coaster. For this assignment, you help Ray and Kelsey as they tackle the math behind some simple curves in the coaster's track.

Part A

The first part of Ray and Kelsey's roller coaster is a curved pattern that can be represented by a polynomial function.

Ray and Kelsey are working to graph a third-degree polynomial function that represents the first pattern in the coaster plan. Ray says the third-degree polynomial has 4 intercepts. Kelsey argues the function can have as many as 3 zeros only. Is there a way for the both of them to be correct? Explain your answer.

Kelsey has a list of possible functions. Pick one of the g(x) functions below and then describe to Kelsey the key features of g(x), including the end behavior, y-intercept, and zeros.
g(x) = x3 − x2 − 4x + 4
g(x) = x3 + 2x2 − 9x − 18
g(x) = x3 − 3x2 − 4x + 12
g(x) = x3 + 2x2 − 25x − 50
g(x) = 2x3 + 14x2 − 2x − 14

Create a graph of the polynomial function you selected from Question 2.

Part B

The second part of the new coaster is a parabola.

Ray needs help creating the second part of the coaster. Create a unique parabola in the pattern f(x) = ax2 + bx + c. Describe the direction of the parabola and determine the y-intercept and zeros.

The safety inspector notes that Ray also needs to plan for a vertical ladder through the center of the coaster's parabolic shape for access to the coaster to perform safety repairs. Find the vertex and the equation for the axis of symmetry of the parabola, showing your work, so Ray can include it in his coaster plan.

Create a graph of the polynomial function you created in Question 4.

Part C

Now that the curve pieces are determined, use those pieces as sections of a complete coaster. By hand or by using a drawing program, sketch a design of Ray and Kelsey's coaster that includes the shape of the g(x) and f(x) functions that you chose in the Parts A and B. You do not have to include the coordinate plane. You may arrange the functions in any order you choose, but label each section of the graph with the corresponding function for your instructor to view.

Part D

Create an ad campaign to promote Ray and Kelsey's roller coaster. It can be a 15-second advertisement for television or radio, an interview for a magazine or news report, or a song, poem, or slideshow presentation for a company. These are just examples; you are not limited to how you prepare your advertisement, so be creative. Make sure to include a script of what each of you will say if you are preparing an interview or a report. The purpose of this ad is to get everyone excited about the roller coaster.

Answer:

$175.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 100 centimeters in  meter and 1000 metres in a kilometer so we have 100,000 cm in a kilometer.

So the required cost

= 0.07 * 100,000 / 40

= 7000 / 40

= $175.

Answer:

Hello! :) The answer will be under “Explanation”

Step-by-step explanation:

As my answer I got $175

1km would equal to 100,000 cm

1m would be 100cm

That means 1 km = 100 000 cm

Now you have to divide.

100,000 divided by 40 equals to 2,500($0.07)

=$175

If we do the math correctly we can now see that the answer should be $175

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

B. 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Hope earns $45,000 per year in taxable income, she falls under the second tax bracket (income higher than $40,000) for long term capital gains = 15%.

Her total capital gain was $200 x (1 - 15%) = $170 in net after tax earnings

her return on investment = net after tax earnings / total investment = $170 / $4,250 = 0.04 = 4%

Answer: 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

-270

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the coefficient of the fourth term.

The coefficients according to pascal triangle for the expansion is 1 5 10 10 5 1

So the expansion looks as follows;

1[(-x)^5(-3)^0] + 5[(-x)^4(-3)^1)] + 10[(-x)^3(-3)^2) + 10[(-x)^2(-3)^3] + ...........

So the fourth term we are dealing with is

10[(-x)^2(-3)^3)]

So the value here is

10 * x^2 * -27

= -270 x^2

So the coefficient is -270

Answer:

(a)Grade =7.5% (No warning sign is needed)

(b)Rise =90 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{Slope = }\dfrac{Rise}{Run}[/tex]

(a)

Rise = 63 feet

Run (Horizontal distance) = 840 feet.

[tex]\text{Slope = }\dfrac{63}{840}=0.075\\\\$Grade=Slope \times 100 = 0.075 \times 100 = 7.5\%[/tex]

A warning sign should not be posted since its grade is less than 8%.

(b)

Grade = 9%

Run (Horizontal distance) = 1000 feet.

Recall that:

Grade = Slope X 100

[tex]9 =\dfrac{Rise}{1000} \times 100\\\\9 =\dfrac{Rise}{10}\\\\$Rise = 9 \times 10 \\$Rise=90 feet[/tex]

The road rises 90 feet over a distance of 1000 feet.

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Try each ordered pair in the equation. Each ordered pair is of the form (x, y). Replace x and y in the equation by values of x and y, respectively, in each ordered pair. Whichever ordered pair makes the equation a true statement is the answer.

For example:

Try (2, 3):

2x + 3y = 10

2(2) + 3(3) = 10

4 + 9 = 10

13 = 10

Since 13 = 10 is a false statement, (2, 3) is not a solution.

Try (2, 2):

2x + 3y = 10

2(2) + 3(2) = 10

4 + 6 = 10

10 = 10

Since 10 = 10 is a true statement, (2, 2) is a solution.

C) the answer on edg is C.

Answer:

third option

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Here (h, k) = (4, - 1) and r = 10÷ 2 = 5, thus

(x - 4)² + (y - (- 1))² = 5², that is

(x - 4)² + (y + 1)² = 25 ← equation of circle

Answer:

y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal line has an equation of the form

y = b,

where b = y-intercept

The y-intercept is -7, so the equation is

y = -7

Answer:

Y=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

No matter what x equals, y has to be equal to negative 7. For example i chose 3 to by X, the equation would still be (3,-7).

Answer: y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A square's area can be done by using s^2, where s is y in this case.  Because there are 5 squares, the area of the figure is 5y^2.  Because the area is also 180cm, 5y^2=180.

Then divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get y^2 = 36.  Then square root both sides of the equation to get y = 6.

Answer: valu of a

Step-by-step explanation: I Did the test

Answer:

The value of A affects the answer.

The equation that has the steepest slope is y = -14x + 1

A slope is the ratio of the change in the y-coordinates to the change in the x-coordinates of a line segment.

Analysis:

A line is said to be the steepest if it has the highest absolute value of the gradient or slope.

From the equations, the coefficient of x in the equations is taken as the slope.  y = -14x+ 1 is the equation with the highest absolute value 14. The absolute value means ignoring the minus sign, since it indicates a negative slope.

Answer:

The 2 pink ones

explanation: I got this right

The two pink diagrams in the given figure are parallelograms.

A unique kind of parallelogram created with parallel lines is called a parallelogram.

A parallelogram can have whatever angle between its neighboring sides, but for it to be a parallelogram, it's opposite sides must be parallel. If a quadrilateral's opposite sides are parallel and congruent, it will be a parallelogram.

So a rectangle both with pairs of separate sides being parallel and equal is known as a parallelogram.

The word "parallelogram" is a translation of the Greek term "parallelogrammon," which means "confined by line segments." As a result, a quadrilateral that is surrounded by parallel lines is called a parallelogram.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

numbers to find perimeter = perimeter

Side + Side + 2 unknown sides = perimeter

12 + 7.8 + 2t = 50.2

19.8 + 2t = 50.2

19.8 + 2t = 50.2

-19.8        - 19.8

2t = 30.4

12 + 7.8 + t + t = 50.2

12 + 7.8 + (15.2) + (15.2) = 50.2

Hope this helped,

Kavitha

Answer:

t = 15.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's add the top and bottom numbers together.

7.8 + 12 = 19.8 mi

Next, we subtract that from 50.2 to get the combined value of both t's.

50.2 - 19.8 = 30.4 mi

Finally, we can divide 30.4 by 2 to get the value of t.

30.4 ÷ 2 = 15.2 mi

To check our answer, we can add all the sides up to see if they equal to 50.2. 15.2 + 15.2 = 30.4

30.4 + 12 + 7.8 = 50.2

Answer:

12.56 [tex]cm^2[/tex] is the error in area of circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Radius of the circle, r = 10 cm

Error in measurement of radius, [tex]\triangle r[/tex] = 0.2 cm

To find:

The error in area of circle = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the percentage error in measurement of radius:

[tex]\dfrac{\triangle r}{r}\times 100 = \dfrac{0.2}{10}\times 100 = 2\%[/tex]

Now, we know that Area of a circle is given as:

[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{\triangle A}{A} \times 100 = 2 \times \dfrac{\triangle r}{r} \times 100\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\triangle A}{A} = 4\%[/tex]

Area according to r = 10

[tex]A = 3.14\times 10^2 = 314 cm^2[/tex]

Now, error in area = 4% of 314 [tex]cm^2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{4}{100} \times 314 = 12.56 cm^2[/tex]

So, the answer is:

12.56 [tex]cm^2[/tex] is the error in area of circle.

Answer: n = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the problem goes thus:

When a number, n is added to 1/5 n of itself, the outcome obtained is 24.

Mathematically,

n + 1/5 of n = 24

n + (1/5n) = 24

1n + 1/5n = 24

(5n + 1n) / 5 = 24

6n / 5 = 24

6n = 24 × 5

6n = 120

n = 120 / 6

n = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The solution is the triplet: (a, b, c) = (-3, 0, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the second equation, and solving for "a":

a - b = -3

a = b - 3

Now replace this expression for a in the third equation:

2 a + b = -6

2 (b - 3) +b = -6

2 b - 6 +b = -6

3 b = -6 +6

3 b = 0

b = 0

So if b = 0 then a = 0 - 3 = -3

now we can replace a= -3, and b = 0  in the first equation and solve for c:

2 a - b + c = -6

2 ( -3) - 0 + c = -6

-6+ c = -6

c = -6 + 6

c = 0

Our solution is a = -3, b= 0 , and c = 0 which can be expressed as (-3, 0, 0)

Answer: c, b, a, d

Answer:

59/130

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

First let x represent the first number.

Let 2x represent the second number.

Let 2x-16 represent the third number.

x + 2x + 2x-16 = 84

5x -16 = 84

5x = 84 + 16

5x = 100

Divide both sides of the equation by 5 so that x can stand alone.

[tex]\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{100}{5}[/tex]

x = 20

∴ First number = x = 20

Second number = 2x = 40

Third number = 2x - 16 = 24

Answer:

(0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of g(t)= -(t-1)^2+5 is an inverted parabola with vertex at (1, 5).

Making a table of t and g values would be helpful here:

 t      g(t) = -(t - 1)^2 + 5

------ -----

  2     4

  0     4

 -1      1

  1      5

We're looking for an interval on which the average rate of change is zero.

Note that this is the case on the interval (2, 4); g(0) = g(2) = 4, so the change in g is 4 - 4, or zero (0).

The average rate of change of [tex]g(t)=-(t-1)^2+5[/tex] is 0 in interval [tex]-1\leq t\leq 3[/tex].

Given,

[tex]g(t)=-(t-1)^2+5\\[/tex].

We have to find the interval in which [tex]g(t)=-(t-1)^2+5\\[/tex] have an average rate of change of zero.

We know that, the function [tex]f(x)[/tex] will have average range of 0 when [tex]f(b)=f(a)[/tex].

Now we calculate g(1), g(2),g(3) and g(-1),

[tex]g(1)=-(1-1)^2+5\\g(1)=5[/tex]

[tex]g(2)=-(2-1)^2+5\\g(2)=-1+5\\g(2)=4[/tex]

[tex]g(3)=-(3-1)^2+5\\g(3)=-4+5\\g(3)=1[/tex]

[tex]g(-1)=-(-1-1)^2+5\\g(-1)=-4+5\\g(-1)=1[/tex]

Since,

[tex]g(3)=g(-1)=1[/tex]  so the function [tex]g(t)=-(t-1)^2+5\\[/tex] has an average rate of zero at [tex]-1\leq t\leq 3[/tex].
