Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The ball have traveled 33 m when it hits the ground for the fourth time.

The correct option is D .

Given, that a ball falls from 12feet.

Analyzing the fall of ball every time.

Fall 1:

Ball dropped from height = 12 m .

Ball returns to half the distance from which it is dropped .

Rebound distance covered by ball = 6 m .

Fall 2:

Ball dropped from height = 6 m .

Ball returns to half the distance from which it is dropped .

Rebound distance covered by ball = 3 m .

Fall 3:

Ball dropped from height = 3 m .

Ball returns to half the distance from which it is dropped .

Rebound distance covered by ball = 1.5 m .

Fall 4:

Ball dropped from height = 1.5 m .

Ball returns to half the distance from which it is dropped .

Rebound distance covered by ball = 0.75 m .

Total distance covered when ball hits the ground for fourth time:

12 + 6 + 6 + 3  + 3 + 1.5 + 1.5

= 33 meters.

The correct option is D .

Daniel wants to have a 90 average in his math class at the end of the year. He is trying to determine what he needs to get on his final exam, which accounts for 10% of his grade, for this to work. Tests are weighted 50% of the grade, and he currently has a 85 for his test average; quizzes are weighted 15% of his grade, and he currently has a 95 quiz average; homework is weighted 15% of his grade and he currently has a 98 homework average; and projects are weighted 10% of his grade and he currently has a 92 project average.

HURRY Am I correct is it reduction or enlightenment will mark brainlest!
I picked reduction

Answer:To determine if the dashed triangle is a dilation image of the solid triangle with the center at the origin, and whether it is an enlargement or a reduction, we need to compare the corresponding side lengths of the triangles.

Given that the dashed triangle has vertices A'(-8, -12), B'(8, 12), and D'(-4, 16), let's calculate the side lengths of the solid triangle and the dashed triangle.

1. Solid triangle side lengths:

- Side AB: Distance between A(4, 6) and B(-4, -6)

AB = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

= sqrt((-4 - 4)^2 + (-6 - 6)^2)

= sqrt((-8)^2 + (-12)^2)

= sqrt(64 + 144)

= sqrt(208)

2. Dashed triangle side lengths:

- Side A'B': Distance between A'(-8, -12) and B'(8, 12)

A'B' = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

= sqrt((8 - (-8))^2 + (12 - (-12))^2)

= sqrt((16)^2 + (24)^2)

= sqrt(256 + 576)

= sqrt(832)

Comparing the side lengths, we have sqrt(832) for the dashed triangle and sqrt(208) for the solid triangle.

Since sqrt(832) is greater than sqrt(208), this means the dashed triangle is larger than the solid triangle.

Therefore, the dashed triangle is an enlargement.

The correct answer is "enlargement."

Search results for "A shipment of 18 cars, some weighing 3,000 pounds, and the others weighing 5,000 pounds each. Together the shipment has a total weight of 30 tons. (60,000 lbs). Find the number of each kind of car."

Answers

The best way to solve a problem like this is to set up two equations. First assign a variable to each thing you are trying to find. In this case, it's two different kinds of cars. Let's call the cars that weigh 3,000 pounds x, and the ones that weigh 5,000 y. The two equations you should write are:

 x+y=18 (because the problem tells you there were 18 cars in total)
3000x+5000y=60000 (because that is the total weight in the problem)

Next, you need to solve for one of the variables. I will solve for x first by subtracting y from both sides of the first equation.

x=18-y

Then you have to plug that into the other equation to get:

3000(18-y)+5000y=60000

Simplify and solve for y:

54000-3000y+5000y=60000
54000+2000y=60000
2000y=6000
y=3

Now that you know what y equals, you can put it into the equation we solved for x:

x=18-3
x=15

So there are 15 cars that weigh 3000 pounds and 3 that weigh 5000.

Suppose the population of a certain city is 5769 . It is expected to decrease to 4963 in 50 years. Find the percent decrease.

Answers

Answer:

≈ 13.98%

Step-by-step explanation:

As the total population is 5769 in the initial period, you must find the percentage that repesents 4963 that is the expected population.

4963/5769=0.8602

Then you multiply it by 100 to transform it into percentage

0.8602*100=86.02%

Then it's just necesary to subtract that from 100% and that numbers is the percentage of decrease

100% - 86.02% = 13.98%

Also you can say that is approximately  14%

If x and y were equal then you would do 21/7 and that is 3 so x=3 and y=3 so if you do the second one then 6+3=9. So the answer is 9
This answer is done through substitution. 
Use 2x+y = 0
y = -2x
Now, use this y value and substitute in the 1st equation
4x + 3 (-2x) = 21
4x + -6x = 21
-2x = 21
x = - 21/2
x= -10.5
Now, use this value into 1st equation again to find y
4(-10.5) + 3y = 21
-42 + 3y = 21
3y = 21 + 42
3y = 63
y=63/3
y=21
Use this and the value of X we got above to substitute in the 2nd equation.
2 (-10.5) + 21
=-21 + 21 = 0
The answer is zero.

If you want to keep the fraction and not use a decimal, you can do so from the previous steps. Still you will get the same answer.

The gas mileage for a certain model of car is known to have a standard deviation of 6 mi/gallon. A simple random sample of 64 cars of this model is chosen and found to have a mean gas mileage of 27.5 mi/gallon. Construct a 97.5% confidence interval for the mean gas mileage for this car model.

Answers

Answer: confidence interval = 27.5 +/- 1.68

= ( 25.82, 29.18)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of samples n = 64

Standard deviation r = 6mi/gallon

Mean x = 27.5mi/gallon

Confidence interval of 97.5%

Z' = t(0.0125) = 2.24

Confidence interval = x +/- Z'(r/√n)

= 27.5 +/- 2.24(6/√64)

= 27.5 +/- 1.68

= ( 25.82, 29.18)
