Calculer la hauteur de chute de cette pierre 2000-12-16
Marcus pose la question :
Une pierre tombe au fond d'un puit, à 5 secondes on entend un son (de la pierre). Calculer la hauteur de chute de cette pierre en tenant compte de la vitesse du son = 340m.s-1

Il faut savoir que pour la chute libre v= g.t ; h = 1/2 g.t2 ; v = 2g.h

g intensité du champs de pesanteur = 10 ; h hauteur de chute.

Percentages 2019-03-30
Mari pose la question :
I am trying to find out what percentage of our worlds population does the youtuber Pewdiepie have for subscribers? So he has 91 million subscribers and there are roughly 7.53 Billion people in the world. So what percent of our worlds population does Pewdiepie have for subscribers? Am I asking this correctly? I am just curious for marketing reasons and how much of the worlds market share does Pewdiepie have for his youtube channel? I just do not know how to set up the problem to find the answer?

A kinky curve 2016-10-06
tammie pose la question :
Koch’s kinky curve is created by starting with a straight segment and replacing it with four segments, each 1/3 as long as the original segment. So, at the second stage the curve has three bends. At the next stage, each segment is replaced by four segments, and so on. How many bends does the curve have at the third stage?

Graphing piecewise functions 2014-03-29
Rayven pose la question :
Hi! I'm in eighth grade, taking ninth grade algebra 1. I'm confused as to how to graph piecewise functions. I know that you have already answered a question similar to this (I did my research first) but it didn't completely help me on my homework. I have to graph piecewise functions for the specified domains, and create a table for the absolute values. I know that two bars around a number means absolute value (two bars around -2 makes it +2) , but how do I graph and chart the absolute value for the following:

f(x)= |x+3 | for -5≤x≤3

And then graph and chart: (on a separate graph):

f(x)= {x if x≤0
{x+1 if x <0

thank you!

A taxi ride 2010-09-22
Jack pose la question :
A taxi ride costs you $2 for the first km and 10 cents for each tenth of a km thereafter. Sketch a graph of the total cost $C(x) for a ride of xkm, for 0 < x < 2. Hint: The graph is not smooth.

How will I start this question off? I tried the table of values method, and then graphed it, but it comes out as smooth,

An equation for a line with a changing slope 2009-03-21
Ben pose la question :
Is there anyway to write an equation for a line with a changing slope. e.g. A cell [hone company has a initial fee of 50$ paying for the first 100 minutes, the rate then increases to 10 cents per minute, then at 500 minutes the rate is 5 cents per minute.

If so please tell how.

A piecewise function for monthly salary 2009-02-03
Josh pose la question :
A sales rep for a drug company is paid on the following scale. His base salary is $1600 per month. He is also paid a commission of 2% of sales over $20,000. When his gross sales reach $30,000 he is then paid 4% on the amount above that until his sales reach $50,000 after which point his commission becomes 6%. His commission reaches 8% when his sales total goes over $100,000 for the month. Set up a piecewise function for the information above.

Piecewise functions 2006-03-21
Kris pose la question :
First Problem:
Southeast Electric charges .09 cents per kilowatt-hour for the first 200 kWh.The company charges .11 cents per kilowatt-hour for all electrical usage in excess of 200 kWh. How many kilowatt-hours were used if a monthly electric bill was $57.06? The answer I came up with is 360, is that right? and also how do I set it up in an equation form?

Second Problem:
A construction worker earned $17 per hour for the first 40 hr of work and $25.50 per hour for work in excess of 40 hr. One week she earned $896.75. How much overtime did she work? I came up with 8.5 hrs over-time worked. Again I don't know how to set up the equation to come up with the answer.

I need some pointers on how to figure out story problems! If you have any suggestions that would help me out I would be very grateful.

The square footage of an area in my backyard 2006-03-17
Kim pose la question :
I need to find out how to calculate the square footage of an area in my backyard that is in the shape of a "slice of pie".

I need to figure out how to calculate the square footage that is inside the area.

f(x) = x-4 if x<2 2004-09-21
Dani pose la question :
Hi, my name is Dani. I'm in tenth grade Algebra 2, and I'm learning about a lot of different kinds of functions, and I can't quite seem to understand how every part of the piecewise function works. I understand most of it, I think, but I've been looking at an example in my math book, and I'm not sure how they got the answer they did. The part I don't understand reads: "Graph f(x) = x-4 if x<2" and "Identify the domain and range." The picture in the book shows an open circle at (2,-2), with an arrow going down and to the left with the slope being one. How did they get the open circle to be at (2,-2), and why does the arrow point where it does?

2/3 vs 3/4 2002-01-02
Julia pose la question :
So, here's my question. Some of the problems they've had to do starts off with two fractions, and they have to tell whether the two fractions are:
  1. The first one is greater than the second one
  2. The first one is less than the second one, or
  3. They are equal.

One day my son had the problem of 2/3 vs 3/4. Without drawing out a pie chart, how in the world can a child "eyeball" a problem like this and tell what the correct answer is? I've also tried to teach about making common denominators, but that's going over his head at this point.

Sharing a donut 2001-09-06

You have invited 11 people over to your house one day, and your friends are hungry. You go into the kitchen and find out you only have 1 donut (with a hole in the middle). In order to feed 12 people (including you), you must cut the donut into 12 pieces with only using a straight knife and cutting 3 times. This is NOT a trick question.

A piecewise linear equation 2000-11-24
Jacky pose la question :
There is a light bulb and it is given that the light bulb cost $0.75 and the cost of operating it is $0.0081 per hour. From the information give, I came up with the linear equation: Let c be total cost and Let h be hours used. Therefore: c = 0.0081h + 0.75 represents the total cost of the light bulb and the electricity. However, the second part of the question added the fact that the light bulb will only last for 800 hours. If the light bulb is replaced as soon as it burns out exactly after every 800 hours, how can I write an equation that represents that? Is it possible? What would it look like on the graph.
