The drop that riders experience on Dr. Doom’s Free Fall can be modeled by the quadratic function, h(t) = −9.8t2−5t + 39
where h is height in meters and t is time in seconds.

Determine the actual solution to the questions below. Use the previous question to assist you.

(a) What is the starting height of the riders?

The starting height of the riders is meters.

(b) According to the function, when will the height of the riders equal 0? Round to the nearest tenths place. *hint: find the solution(s).

The height of the riders will equal 0 at seconds.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 39 meters

b) t = 1.8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

To find the starting height of the riders, we just need to use the value of t = 0 in the equation of h(t):

h(0) = -9.8*0^2 - 5*0 + 39

h(0) = 39 meters

b)

To find when the height will be equal 0, we just need to use the value of h(t) = 0 and then find the value of t:

0 = -9.8*t^2 - 5*t + 39

Delta = b^2 - 4ac = 25 + 4*39*9.8 = 1553.8

sqrt(Delta) = 39.418

t1 = (5 + 39.418)/(-2*9.8) = -2.2662 s (A negative value for the time is not suitable for the problem)

t2 = (5 - 39.418)/(-2*9.8) = 1.756 s

Rounding to nearest tenth, we have t = 1.8 s

Sue invested $1,000 at an interest rate of 4% compounded semiannually. How much money

would she have in 3 years?

Answers

Answer:

She would have $1,126.16 in 3 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

[tex]A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this question:

Invested 1000, which means that [tex]P = 1000[/tex].

Interest of 4%, so [tex]r = 0.04[/tex]

Semianually is twice a year, so [tex]n = 2[/tex]

How much money would she have in 3 years?

This is A(3).

[tex]A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A(3) = 1000(1 + \frac{0.04}{2})^{6} = 1,126.16[/tex]

She would have $1,126.16 in 3 years.

If you are given a paper which has lines which are the length of a needle apart, and then you repeated drop that needle onto the paper, the probability that the needle with cut the line is:

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

[tex]\frac{1}{\pi }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have that

[tex]Probability = \frac{Number \, of \, required\, outcomes}{Number \, of \, possible\ outcomes} = \frac{Dimension \, of \, the \, line}{Size \, of \, the \ needle} = \frac{l \times D}{\pi \times D \times l } = \frac{1}{\pi }[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the needle will cut the line = 1/π.

A circle is shown. 4 radii are drawn. Chords are drawn to connect the radii points on the circle to form 2 triangles. The triangles have base lengths of 6 centimeters and the other 2 sides have lengths of 5 centimeters. The distance between the base of the triangle to the outline of the circle is 1 centimeter. Everything around the triangles is shaded. What is the area of the shaded region? (25π – 48) cm2 (25π – 30) cm2 (25π – 24) cm2 (25π – 12) cm2

Answers

Answer:

Area of Shaded Region = (25π - 24) cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment

From the attached, the following observations are made;

Radius, r = 5cm

Base of triangles = 6cm.

Required

Area of shaded region.

If the distance between the base of the triangle to the outline of the circle is 1cm then the height of the triangle is 1cm less than the radius

Height = 5cm - 1cm

Height = 4cm

To calculate the area of the shaded region, we first calculate the area of the circle.

Area = πr²

Substitute 5 for r

Area = π * 5²

Area = π * 25

Area = 25π cm²

Then we calculate the area of both triangles

Area of 1 triangle is calculated as follows.

Area = ½ * base * height

Substitute 4 for height and 6 for base.

Area = ½ * 4 * 6

Area = 2 * 6

Area = 12cm²

Since both triangles are equal.

Area of two triangles = 2 * Area of 1 triangle

Area = 2 * 12cm²

Area = 24cm²

Having calculated the area of the circle and that of both triangles.

Area of shaded region = Area of Circle - Area of Triangles

Area of Shaded Region = 25π cm² - 24 cm²

Area of Shaded Region = (25π - 24) cm²

The mean absolute deviation of the data is 30.

Given data:

To find the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the given data, we need to follow these steps:

Calculate the mean (average) of the data set.

Find the absolute difference between each data point and the mean.

Calculate the mean of these absolute differences.

Given data set: 60, 105, 80, 125, 140, 95, 65, 170

Step 1:

Calculate the mean

Mean = (60 + 105 + 80 + 125 + 140 + 95 + 65 + 170) / 8

Mean = 840 / 8

Mean = 105

Step 2:

Find the absolute difference between each data point and the mean

|60 - 105| = 45

|105 - 105| = 0

|80 - 105| = 25

|125 - 105| = 20

|140 - 105| = 35

|95 - 105| = 10

|65 - 105| = 40

|170 - 105| = 65

Step 3:

Calculate the mean of the absolute differences

MAD = (45 + 0 + 25 + 20 + 35 + 10 + 40 + 65) / 8

MAD = 240 / 8

MAD = 30

The mean absolute deviation of the given data set is 30.

Interpretation:

The mean absolute deviation represents the average amount by which each data point deviates from the mean. In this case, the MAD of 30 indicates that, on average, the data points in the set deviate from the mean by approximately 30 units.

Mr. Stewart used a gallon of vinegar to make 15 different color egg dipping containers. He used the same amount of vinegar in each container. How much vinegar in gallons was used in each egg dye container?

Answers

Answer:

0.067 gallons ( to 2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note that since the same amount of vinegar was used in each container, it means that the 1 gallon of vinegar was divided equally to the 15 containers, hence the amount of vinegar used in each dye container is calculated as follows:

total volume of vinegar = 1

number of egg dye containers = 15

if equal volume of vinegar was used in each container:

volume of vinegar in each egg dye container = 1 ÷ 15 = 0.067 gallons ( to 2 decimal places)

Trapezoid EFGH is inscribed in a circle, with [tex]EF \parallel GH[/tex]. If arc GH is 70 degrees, arc EH is x^2 - 2x degrees, and arc FG is 56 - 3x degrees, where x > 0, find arc EPF, in degrees.

Answers

Answer:

Arc EPF is 240°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quadrilateral, EFGH is a trapezoid and EF is parallel to GH, we have;

∠HGF + ∠GFE = 180°

∠GHE + ∠GFE = 180°

∠HGF + ∠HEF = 180°

∴∠HEF = ∠GFE

In ΔHEF and ΔGFE

∠EHF = ∠EGF (Angles subtending the same segment)

With side EF common to both triangles and ∠HEF = ∠GFE , we have;

ΔHEF ≅ ΔGFE (Angle Angle Side rule)

Hence, side FG = EH

For cyclic trapezoid side FG = EH

The base angles subtended by GH = 70

Arc EH = x² - 2·x

Arc FG = 56 - 3·x

Therefore;

70 + x² - 2·x + 56 - 3·x + arc EPF = 360 .............(1)

Also since the equation of a circle is (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r², where the center of the circle is (h, k), then as EF is a displacement of say z from GH, then arc EH = FG which gives;

x² - 2·x = 56 - 3·x

x² - 2·x - 56 + 3·x = 0

x² + x - 56 = 0

(x - 7)(x + 8) = 0

Therefore, since x > 0 we have x = 7

Plugging in the value of x into the equation (1), we have

70 + 7² - 2·7 + 56 - 3·7 + arc EPF = 360 .............(1)

70 + 70 + arc EPF = 360

arc EPF = 360 - 140 = 240°.

And the 68% confidence interval is given by (91.1186, 97.2814)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that mean time that visitors stay at a museum is given by:

[tex] \bar X = 94.2 [/tex]

The standard deviation is given by:

[tex] s= 15.5[/tex]

And the standard error is given by:

[tex] SE = \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} =3.1 [/tex]

And we want to interval captures 68% of the means for random samples of 25 scores and for this case the critical value can be founded like this using the normal standard distribution or excel:

[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= \pm 0.994[/tex]

We can find the interval like this:

[tex] \bar X \pm ME[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] 94.2 -0.994*3.1 = 91.1186[/tex]

[tex] 94.2 +0.994*3.1 = 97.2814[/tex]

You start a chain email and send it to 3 friends. The process continues and each of your friends forward the email to 3 other people. What is an expression for the nth term an?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}=3^{n}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start solving this problem by making a list of the number of chain emails that are sent on each round:

Round one:

[tex]a_{1}=3[/tex]

which represents the three friends you send the mail to.

Round two:

[tex]a_{2}=3*3=9[/tex]

since each of your friends sends the mail to another three friends, then we multiply the original 3 friends by 3 to get a total of 9.

Round three:

[tex]a_{3}=3*3*3=9*3=27[/tex]

on the next round we multiply the previous 9 persons by 3 mails each giving us a total of 27 persons receiving the mail. A patter starts showing here. Notice that for each round we need to take the previous round number an multiply it by 3. When we have a number being multiplied by itself n times, we rewrite it as a power, so the expression for the nth term will be:

[tex]a_{n}=3^{n}[/tex]

which is our final answer.
