a ball is dropped from a height of 512 inches onto a level floor. after the fourth bounce it is still 2 inches off the ground. presuming that the height the ball bounces is always the same fraction of the height reached on the previous bounce. what is that fraction? A) 1/4 B) 3/7 C) 5/9 D)4/7 E)3/5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that before the 1st bounce, the height of the ball is 512 inches.

Say the fraction is x.

Then, after the first bounce, the height of the ball is 512 * x = 512x.

After the second bounce, the height is now x * 512x = 512x².

By similar reasoning, the height after the third bounce is 512x³ and after the fourth bounce, it is [tex]512x^4[/tex].

We also know that after the fourth bounce, the height is 2 inches. So, set 2 equal to [tex]512x^4[/tex]:

2 = [tex]512x^4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 512:

[tex]x^4=2/512[/tex][tex]x^4=2/512=1/256[/tex]

Take the fourth root of both sides:

[tex]x=\sqrt[4]{1/256} =1/4[/tex]

Hence, the answer is A.

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is exponential decay so we  have , where x = the fraction:

512(x)^4 = 2

x^4 = 1/256

x= 1 / (256)^0.25

= 1/4

Find the fourth roots of 16(cos 200° + i sin 200°).

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find roots of an equation, we use this formula:

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{n}}=r^{\frac{1}{n}}(cos(\frac{\theta}{n}+\frac{2k\pi}{n} )+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{\theta}{n}+\frac{2k\pi}{n})),[/tex] where k = 0, 1, 2, 3... (n = root; equal to n - 1; dependent on the amount of roots needed - 0 is included).

In this case, n = 4.

Therefore, we adjust the polar equation we are given and modify it to be solved for the roots.

Part 2: Solving for root #1

To solve for root #1, make k = 0 and substitute all values into the equation. On the second step, convert the measure in degrees to the measure in radians by multiplying the degrees measurement by [tex]\frac{\pi}{180}[/tex] and simplify.

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=16^{\frac{1}{4}}(cos(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(0)\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(0)\pi}{4}))[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{\pi}{4}))[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}} = 2(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{\pi}{4}))[/tex]

Root #1:

[tex]\large\boxed{z^\frac{1}{4}=2(cos(\frac{19\pi}{36}))+\mathfrack{i}(sin(\frac{19\pi}{38}))}[/tex]

Part 3: Solving for root #2

To solve for root #2, follow the same simplifying steps above but change k  to k = 1.

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=16^{\frac{1}{4}}(cos(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(1)\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(1)\pi}{4}))[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{2\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{2\pi}{4}))\\[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{\pi}{2}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{\pi}{2}))\\[/tex]

Root #2:

[tex]\large\boxed{z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{7\pi}{9}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{7\pi}{9}))}[/tex]

Part 4: Solving for root #3

To solve for root #3, follow the same simplifying steps above but change k to k = 2.

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=16^{\frac{1}{4}}(cos(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(2)\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(2)\pi}{4}))[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{4\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{4\pi}{4}))\\[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\pi))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\pi))\\[/tex]

Root #3:

[tex]\large\boxed{z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{23\pi}{18}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{23\pi}{18}))}[/tex]

Part 4: Solving for root #4

To solve for root #4, follow the same simplifying steps above but change k to k = 3.

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=16^{\frac{1}{4}}(cos(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(3)\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{200}{4}+\frac{2(3)\pi}{4}))[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{6\pi}{4}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{6\pi}{4}))\\[/tex]

[tex]z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{3\pi}{2}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{5\pi}{18}+\frac{3\pi}{2}))\\[/tex]

Root #4:

[tex]\large\boxed{z^{\frac{1}{4}}=2(cos(\frac{16\pi}{9}))+\mathfrak{i}(sin(\frac{16\pi}{19}))}[/tex]

The fourth roots of 16(cos 200° + i(sin 200°) are listed above.

Jerry walked a dog from 6:40 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. one day. If he was paid at the rate of $6 per hour, how much did he cam that day?

Answers

Answer: 5$

Explanation:

1hr = 6$ but 1hr = 60min
Or 60min = 6$

If he walk the dog for 50min:

60/50 = 6/x
X = (6 x 50)/60
X = 300/60
X = 5$

X is the amount he was paid for walking the dog for 50 min.

Which of the following units is incommensurable with kilograms

Answers

Answer:

All units of measurement that are not based on or do not measure mass or weight and volume are incommensurable with kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

A measure unit is said to be incommensurable with another if it does not have the same measurement basis with the other measure unit.  For example, a measure in time cannot be measured in kilograms because time is measured in hours, minutes, seconds, days, etc.  But, if a measurement base can be applied to two or more measurement units, then the measurement units are commensurable with the measurement base.

What is the value of x to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!!!

Let's workout with this figure.

BC is a chord, O is the centre and OA is the perpendicular bisector.

AB = 1/2 of BC (according to circle's theorem)

so, A B = 1/2 × 25.6

Therefore, the measure of AB is 12.8.

now, let's have a small work with triangle AOB.

as it is a Right angled triangle, taking angle B as refrence angle we get,

p=x

b=12.8

h= OB = 16 (it is also a radius.)

now,

by Pythagoras relation we get,

[tex]p = \sqrt{ {h}^{2} - {b}^{2} } [/tex]

or, x = root 16^2- 12.8 ^2

by simplification, we get;

the measure of x is 9.6.

Therefore, the value of x is 9.6.

This is an example of a qualitative variable. We don't have any numeric data attached to color. They're simply names or labels. In contrast, a quantitative variable is something like a person's height since a number is attached here (more specifically its a continuous quantitative variable).

Explain how changes in the dimensions of a cube dimensions affect the volume of a cube. Be specific, explaining how much the volume will change with each increase of 1 unit on the side lengths.

Answers

Answer:

when each side length of a cube increases by 1 unit, the volume increases by 3x² + 3x + 1 (units)³

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial length of the sides of the cube = x unit

when the length of the cube = x ;  volume of the cube = length × breadth × height = x × x × x = x³ (unit)³

when the length increased by 1 unit,

new length = (x + 1) unit

New volume = (x + 1) × (x + 1) × (x + 1)

multiplying the first two brackets

New volume = (x² + 2x + 1 ) (x + 1)

espanding the brackets

New volume = x³ + 2x² + x + x² + 2x + 1

New volume = x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1 (unit)³

Change in volume:

(New volume) - (old volume)

(x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1) - (x³)

x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1 - x³

collecting like terms:

(x³ - x³) + 3x² + 3x + 1

0 + 3x² + 3x + 1

change in volume = 3x² + 3x + 1

Therefore, when each side length of a cube increases by 1 unit, the volume increases by 3x² + 3x + 1 (units)³
