The function that models the total amount, in dollars, that the sponsor will donate to the charity when the person walks m miles is F(d) = 7 + 0.25m.

Mathematically, a function is an expression involving two or more variables (independent and dependent) showing that a mathematical relationship exists between the expressions.

Functions use the equation symbol to show that the expressions are equal when the variables are substituted with integers.

Every function has a domain (input variable) and a range (output variable) or codomain.

Constant donation = $7

Variable donation per mile = $0.25

Function, F(d) = 7 + 0.25m

where d = the total amount donated

m = the total miles the person walks

Thus, the total donation made by the sponsor is represented by the function, F(d) = 7 + 0.25m.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \sf - 18p = p^2+81 [/tex]

Moving all the expression to the Left side of the equation,

[tex] \sf -18p + p^2 - 81 = 0 [/tex]

To find the discriminant of the above equation we can simply use the Quadratic formula.

The discriminant formula of a quadratic equation[tex] \sf ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \: is \: (d = b^2 - 4ac )[/tex]

Where d represents the discriminant

a, b and c are the coefficient of the above equation,

p^2, here coefficient of p² is a = 1

-18p, here coefficient of p is b = -18

81, here the number is constant so coefficient is c = 81.

So simply by substituting the value of a, b and c in the above discriminant formula we get,

[tex] \sf d = b^2 - 4ac [/tex]

[tex] \sf d = (-18)^2 - (4 \times 1 \times 81) [/tex]

[tex] \sf d = 324 - 324[/tex]

[tex] \sf d = 0 [/tex]

Therefore, The discriminant of 18p = p² + 81 is 0.

Answer:

0 (zero)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the discriminant of the quadratic equation -18p = p² + 81, we first need to rewrite the equation in standard form, which is of the form ax² + bx + c = 0.

[tex]\begin{aligned}-18p&=p^2+81\\p^2+81&=-18p\\p^2+81+18p&=-18p+18p\\p^2 + 18p + 81 &= 0\end{aligned}[/tex]

Compare the coefficients of the rewritten quadratic equation with the standard form:

The discriminant of a quadratic equation in the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is given by the formula:

[tex]\boxed{\textsf{Discriminant} = b^2 - 4ac}[/tex]

Substitute the values of a, b, and c into the formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\textsf{Discriminant} &= (18)^2 - 4(1)(81)\\&=324-4(81)\\&=324-324\\&=0\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the discriminant of the given quadratic equation is zero.

The total length of the road ditch is 1/2 mile and the measurement in square feet of the road ditch is 42,240 square feet.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

You built a driveway ½ mile long to your new house. You have an 8-foot-wide road ditch on both sides of the road.

a) Now, the length of the ditch will be equal to the length of the driveway.

Length of ditch = 1/2 mile

b) Measurement of the road ditch in square feet:

Area of rectangle = length*width

Converting length into feet:

1 mile = 5280 feet

1/2 mile= 2640 feet

Area of ditch =(2640)*8

Area of ditch =21,120 square feet

Now, ditch is on both sides:

So, total area of ditch = 2*21,120

Total area of ditch = 42,240 square feet

Hence, the total length of the road ditch is 1/2 mile and the measurement in square feet of the road ditch is 42,240 square feet.

Answer: The required vertices after reflection are A'(2, -3), B'(5, -5), C'(7, -3) and D'(5, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the figure ABCD is reflected across the X-axis.

We are to find the co-ordinates of A, B, C and D after reflection.

From the figure, we note that the co-ordinates of the vertices of ABCD are

A(2, 3), B(5, 5), C(7, 3) and D(5, 2).

After reflection from X-axis, the y co-ordinate of each vertex will change its sign (y → -y).

Therefore,  the vertices of ABCD after reflection are

A(2, 3)  ⇒ A'(2, -3),

B(5, 5)  ⇒  B'(5, -5),

C(7, 3)  ⇒  C'(7, -3),

D(5, 2)  ⇒ D'(5, -2).

Thus, the required vertices after reflection are A'(2, -3), B'(5, -5), C'(7, -3) and D'(5, -2).

Answer:

b)  f(x) = -16x² + 8x + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

When a ball is thrown, its path of motion can be modelled as a parabola that opens downwards.

The graph of a quadratic equation f(x) = ax² + bx + c is a parabola.

Therefore,  f(x) = -16x² + 8x + 30  could potentially model the time (in seconds) it takes a ball tossed from a window to touch the ground, as its graph is a parabola that opens downwards.

If this function was used to model the scenario, the height of the window above the ground would be the y-intercept (30 feet), and the time when the ball touched the ground would be the positive x-intercept (approx 1.64 s).

Answer:

3/2 month

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation and solve: Sandy has $60 and saves $10 a month. Randy has $45 and saves $20 per month. After how many months will they have the same amount of money?

When x = months:

Sandy: 10x + 60

Randy: 20x + 45

You are looking for x when:

Sandy = Randy

10x + 60 = 20x + 45

subtract 45 from both sides:

10x + 60 - 45 = 20x + 45 - 45

10x + 15 = 20x

subtract 10x from both sides:

10x + 15 - 10x = 20x - 10x

15 = 10x

divide both sides by 10:

15/10 = 10x/10

x = 15/10

reduce:

x = 3/2

It will take 3/2 months of Sandy and Randy to have the same amount of money.

[3/2 month also equals 1.5 months, depending on the format of the answer you need]

A function that is negative over its entire domain can be having its values of x and y negative i.e. it can be (-3,-4). Yes, the graph has an X-intercept.

A line's x-intercept and y-intercept are the points at which the x- and y-axes, respectively, are crossed. We find it easier to graph linear equations when we consider intercepts.

X-intercept illustration:

Where a line on a graph crosses the x-axis is known as the x-intercept. At that time, the y coordinate's value is zero. For instance, the x-intercept would be where the equation y = x + 5 crosses the x-axis at the location (-5, 0).

Calculate the x-intercept:

We set y = 0 and solve the equation for x to determine the x-intercept. This is due to the fact that the line crosses the x-axis at y=0. If an equation is not in the form y = mx + b, we can still solve for the intercepts by substituting 0 where necessary and then solving for the final variable.

An illustration of y-intercept:

This is an illustration of a y-intercept. Think about the line y = x + 3. The point where this graph crosses the y-axis is (0,3). Therefore, the y-intercept of the line y = x+ 3 is (0,3).

If we can locate the x-intercept of a linear function, finding the zero should be simple. The x-coordinate of the x-intercept is zero.

The x-intercept can be positive or negative.

Summary:

The location on the graph where our line crosses the x-axis is known as the x-intercept.

Positive numbers are to the right of the origin and negative numbers are to the left of the origin on the x-axis.

The location on the graph where our line crosses the y-axis is known as the y-intercept.

Answer:

t - 10 = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the tortoise was 61 years old 10 years ago. Let's suppose that t is the tortoise's current age. We can then write the equation t - 10 = 61

so t = 71.

Each set of prices should be matched with the correct percentage of increase or decrease as follows:

Mathematically, percentage increase can be calculated by using this formula:

Percentage increase = [original price - new price]/new price × 100

At original price: $63.00 and new price: $56.07, we have:

Percentage decrease = [63.00 - 56.07]/56.07 × 100

Percentage decrease = 6.93/56.07 × 100

Percentage decrease = 0.124 × 100

Percentage decrease = 12.4%.

At original price: $98.00 and new price: $108.78, we have:

Percentage increase = [108.78 - 98.00]/98.00 × 100

Percentage increase = 10.78/98.00 × 100

Percentage increase = 0.11 × 100

Percentage increase = 11%.

At original price: $37.50 and new price: $34.50, we have:

Percentage decrease = [37.50 - 34.50]/34.50 × 100

Percentage decrease = 3/34.50 × 100

Percentage decrease = 0.087 × 100

Percentage decrease = 8.7%.

At original price: $12.25 and new price: $13.23, we have:

Percentage increase = [13.23 - 12.25]/12.25 × 100

Percentage increase = 0.98/12.25 × 100

Percentage increase = 0.08 × 100
