A golfer hits a golf ball.
The function
d(t) = –2t2 + 7t + 4
most closely represents the height(h) of the golf ball in feet after t seconds. How
long is the golf ball in the air?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The golf ball was in the air for 4 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

[tex]ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0[/tex].

This polynomial has roots [tex]x_{1}, x_{2}[/tex] such that [tex]ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})[/tex], given by the following formulas:

[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta = b^{2} - 4ac[/tex]

In this question:

We have to find the amount of time it takes for the ball to hit the ground. We have that:

[tex]d(t) = -2t^2 + 7t + 4[/tex]

Which is a quadratic equation with [tex]a = -2, b = 7, c = 4[/tex].

How long is the golf ball in the air?

We have to find t for which [tex]d(t) = 0[/tex]

So

[tex]-2t^2 + 7t + 4 = 0[/tex]

[tex]\Delta = b^{2} - 4ac = (7)^2 - 4(-2)(4) = 81[/tex]

[tex]t_{1} = \frac{-7 + \sqrt{81}}{2*(-2)} = -0.5[/tex]

[tex]t_{2} = \frac{-7 - \sqrt{81}}{2*(-2)} = 4[/tex]

Time is a positive measure, so t = 4.

The golf ball was in the air for 4 seconds.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is x + 2y = 2. Fully simplify your answer. ​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for y to find the slope of the given line.

  x +2y = 2

  2y = -x +2 . . . . . subtract x

  y = -1/2x +1 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

The slope is the x-coefficient, -1/2.

Any perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of this:

  -1/(-1/2) = 2

A perpendicular line will have a slope of 2.

ANSWER ASAP!! Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. 3x+7y=1 and y=x-7

Answers

x=5

y = -2

(5,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+7y=1 and y=x-7

Substitute the second equation in for y in the first equation

3x+7( x-7)=1

Distribute

3x+ 7x - 49 = 1

Combine like terms

10x - 49 =1

Add 49 to each side

10x-49+49 = 1+49

10x = 50

Divide by 10

10x/10 = 50/10

x = 5

Now find y

y = x-7

y = 5-7

y = -2

A mouse is trapped in a maze. To
find his way out, he walks 15 m,
makes a 90° left turn, walks 8 m,
makes another 90° left turn, and
walks 10 m. What is the magnitude
of the resultant vector?

Answers

Answer: Approximately 9.43 meters

The more accurate version is 9.4339811320566 but that's not exact.

This is exact magnitude is sqrt(89)

=======================================================

Explanation:

Let's draw an xy grid for this. Place the starting point at (0,0) which I'll call point A. Now let's say the mouse goes east 15 meters. That would move it to (15,0) which is marked as point B. Refer to the diagram below.

From point B, we move to C which is at (15,8). So the mouse has gone 8 meters north. It might help to turn the page so that the east direction is facing completely north, and then look to the left and you'll see "north". In other words, each 90 degree left turn is a 90 degree counterclockwise turn.

After doing another 90 degree counterclockwise turn, the mouse will move 10 meters westward. It moves from C(15,8) to D(5,8). Point D is the final position of the mouse.

-----------------------

A(0,0) was the initial position and D(5,8) is the final position

The vector v is

v = <5,8>

This is because we basically are saying "the mouse ultimately moved 5 meters east and 8 meters north" when going from start to finish. We're ignoring the intermediate stops along the way.

------------------------

Recall that for any vector of the form

v = <a,b>

the magnitude of that vector is

|v| = sqrt(a^2+b^2)

this is the length of the vector based on the pythagorean theorem.

Applying this formula gets us

|v| = sqrt(5^2+8^2)

|v| = sqrt(89)

|v| = 9.43398 approximate

This represents the straight line distance from start to finish, where we ignore any intermediate stops. So this isn't the distance the mouse travels (since it goes from A to B, to C to D). Instead, it's the distance it would travel if it wanted to take the shortest path from A to D.

Insurance companies need to maintain a certain amount in reserved funds in order to pay anticipated claims. The average monthly claim amount for the last 60 months for company A was $7,500,000 and the (sample) standard deviation was $1,200,000.
(a) Find a 95% upper confidence bound on the average monthly claim amount.
(b) The regulations on the reserves will be strengthened in the near future. According to the new regulations, insurance companies that do not have sufficient amount in reserve will be subject to a significant penalty. Company A wants to adjust the target reserve amount accordingly, by computing a new upper bound on the average monthly claim amount. Should the company recalculate an upper confidence bound with a higher or a lower level of confidence? Briefly explain why. Then compute a 99.95% upper confidence bound on the average monthly claim amount.

Answers

Answer:

a ) Upper bound of CI  is 7803483.87

b) The new upper bound is  8039767.74

Step-by-step explanation:

From sample data:

sample size    n  =  60

sample mean  x = 7500000

Sample standard deviation   s  =  1200000

a) Confidence Interval 95 %  then  significance level  α = 5 % o  α = 0.05

α/2 = 0.025     z(c) from z-table is  z(c) = 1.96

CI  95 % =  (   x  ±  z(c) * s/√n

CI  95 % =  (  7500000  ±  1.96 * 1200000/√60

CI  95 % =  (  7500000  ±  303483.87 )

CI  95 % =  ( 7196516.13  ;  7803483.87)

Then upper bound of CI  is 7803483.87

b) The company has to decrease the significance level equivalent to widen the confidence interval.

If CI now is   99.95 %    significance level is α = 0.0005 and

α/2 = 0.00025     z(c) for that α/2    is from z-table  z(c) ≈ 3.486

CI 99.95 %  = ( x ±  z(c)*s/√n

CI 99.95 %  =  7500000 ±  3.486*1200000/ √60

CI 99.95 %  =  (7500000 ±539767.74)

CI 99.95 %  = ( 6960232.26 ; 8039767.74)

The new upper bound is  8039767.74

The area of a triangle is 2/5 square feet. What is the base of the triangle if the height is 6/5 feet?
24/25 feet
25/24 feet
2/3 feet
3/2 feet​

Answers

Answer:

2/3 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the area of a triangle is  A = (B x H)/2. Or, area is equal to base times height, all divided by two. In your case, we don't know the base. If we substitute in values, we get 2/5 = (B x 6/5)/2.

Next, we have to multiply both sides by two, to cancel the "/2." That results in 4/5 = B x 6/5. Then, to isolate the variable, we have to divide both sides by 6/5. 4/5 ÷ 6/5 is 4/5 x 5/6. The fives cancel out, and we are left with 4/6.

Finally, we simplify! 4/6 simplifies to 2/3.

If the measure of angle 2 Is (4x+10)degrees and the measure of angle 3 is (3x-5)degrees, what is the measure of angle 2 in degrees?

Answers

Answer:

110°

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+10 + (3x-5) = 180

7x + 5 = 180

7x = 175

x = 25

∠2 = 4(25) + 10 = 110

The measure of angle 2 in degrees, when both lines are perpendicular, is approximately 58.56 degrees.

To find the measure of angle 2 when the lines are perpendicular, we can set up an equation. Since the angles are formed by perpendicular lines, we know that the sum of angle 2 and angle 3 will be equal to 90 degrees. Mathematically, we can write this as:

(4x + 10) + (3x - 5) = 90

Now, let's solve the equation to find the value of x. First, combine like terms:

4x + 3x + 10 - 5 = 90

7x + 5 = 90

Next, isolate x by subtracting 5 from both sides:

7x = 85

Finally, divide by 7 to solve for x:

x = 85 / 7 ≈ 12.14

Now that we have the value of x, we can find the measure of angle 2 by substituting x back into its expression:

Angle 2 = 4x + 10

Angle 2 = 4(12.14) + 10

Angle 2 ≈ 48.56 + 10

Angle 2 ≈ 58.56 degrees
