A diver dives from a 9-foot-high platform with an initial speed of 16 feet per second. The height, h, of the diver can be modeled by the equation ℎ = −162 − 16 + 9, where t represents time in seconds. How long will it be before the diver hits the water?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The diver will hit the water after 0.4 seconds.

This is an example of a quadratic equation. It is in the shape of an upside down parabola.

Our goal is to solve the following equation:  0 = -16x^2 - 16x + 9

To do this, we can use the quadratic formula. The variables are:
a = -16
b = -16
c = 9

It will be: 16 +/- The square root of (-16)^2 - 4(-16)9 all divided by 2(-16).

This will give a positive answer of 0.4 seconds.

Tennis balls are sold in tubes that hold 3 tennis balls each. A store stacks 2 rows of tennis ball tubes on its shelf. Each row has 7 tubes in it. How many tennis balls are there in all?

Answers

There are 42 tennis balls in all

There are a total of 42 tennis balls on the shelf.

To determine the total number of tennis balls on the shelf, we first need to find out how many tennis ball tubes are there. Each row has 7 tubes and there are 2 rows:

Number of tubes per row = 7

Number of rows = 2

Total number of tubes = 7 tubes/row × 2 rows = 14 tubes

Since each tube contains 3 tennis balls, we multiply the total number of tubes by the number of tennis balls per tube:

Number of tennis balls per tube = 3

Total number of tennis balls = 14 tubes × 3 tennis balls/tube = 42 tennis balls

Therefore, the store has a total of 42 tennis balls on the shelf.

The complete question is:

A plane is traveling due south. The wind is blowing 30° east of south at 50 miles/hour. If the plane's resultant speed due to the wind is 180 miles/hour, what is the plane's actual speed, rounded to the nearest integer?

120 miles/hour130 miles/hour135 miles/hour140 miles/hour

From the data given in the question:

Using Cosine Law:

c² = a² + b² - 2 ac cos C

180² = 50² + x² - (2×50)x  cos 150°

32400 - 2500 - x² = 86.6x

29,900 - x² = 86.6 x

x² + 86.6x - 29900 = 0

After solving the above quadratic equation:

x = 135 miles/hour

Thus, the plane's actual speed is 135 miles/hour if the plane is traveling due south. The wind is blowing 30° east of south at 50 miles/hour option (C) 135 miles/hour is correct.

The sides of a right triangle have a relationship as depicted below, where x is the length of the longer leg in inches.

The area of this triangle, A, is equal to the perimeter of this triangle.

Create a system of equations to model this situation. Determine if there are any solutions, and, if possible, whether or not they are viable.

How many total possible solutions are there to this system?

Of any possible solutions, how many are viable solutions for this situation?

Answers

The equation to represent the area of the triangle would be:
y = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

The equation to represent the perimeter of the triangle would be:
y = 3x - 6

The solutions to the system would be (12, 30) or (1, -3).  The only viable solution is (12, 30).

Explanation
The area of a triangle is found using the formula
A = 1/2bh

For our triangle, b = x and h = x-7, so we have:
A = 1/2(x)(x-7)
A = 1/2(x²-7x)
A = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

We will replace A with y, so we have:
y = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

The perimeter of a triangle is found by adding together all sides, so we have:
P = (x-7) + x + (x+1)

Combining like terms we get:
P = 3x - 6

We will replace P with y, so we have:
y = 3x - 6

Since both equations have y isolated on one side, it will be easy to use substitution to solve the system:

3x - 6 = 1/2(x²) - (7/2)x

It's easier to work with whole numbers, so we will multiply everything by 2:
6x - 12 = x² - 7x

We want all of the variables on one side, so we will subtract 6x:
6x - 12 - 6x = x² - 7x - 6x
-12 = x² - 13x

When solving quadratics, we want the equation equal to 0, so we will add 12:
-12+12 = x² - 13x + 12
0 = x² - 13x + 12

This is easy to factor, as there are factors of 12 that sum to -13; -12(-1) = 12 and -12+-1 = -13:
0 = (x-12)(x-1)

Using the zero product property, we know that either x-12=0 or x-1=0; therefore x=12 or x=1.

Putting these back into our equation for perimeter (the simplest one) we have:
y = 3(12)-6 = 36-6 = 30; (12, 30);
y = 3(1) - 6 = 3 - 6 = -3; (1, -3)

We cannot have a negative perimeter, so the only viable solution is (12, 30).

Answer:

two possible and one viable

Carmela randomly selected 65 stamps from a stamp collection. Eleven of these were commemorative stamps. What is the interval estimate for the proportion of commemorative stamps in the entire collection if the sampling method had a margin of error of ±0.025?

Answers

Since there is no mean, we need to first get the probability:
p = 11/ 65 = 0.1692
This will make it easier to compute for the interval estimate. Interval Estimate = probability ± margin of error
upper limit = 0.1692 + 0.025 = 0.1942

lower limit = 0.1692 - 0.025 = 0.1442
So the interval estimate is 0.1442 < x < 0.1942

When translating a figure using a combination of two translations, is the resulting figure congruent to the original figure?

Answers

it has to be the original figure but it  is in a different spot on the graph 
Final answer:

When translating a figure using two translations, the end result is a figure that is congruent to the original. This is due to the fact that translations move the shape without altering its size or orientation.

Explanation:

Yes, when translating a figure using a combination of two translations, the resulting figure is congruent to the original figure. When a figure is translated, it is moved without being turned or flipped, the size and shape remains the same, hence making it congruent. For example, consider a parallelogram. If two different vectors A and B are chosen to translate it, following the rules of vector summation, the figure moved, known as the resultant vector retains the dimensions and angles of the original parallelogram, albeit in a different location.

Explanation:
The equation of line in slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope
c is the y-intercept

We are given that the slope = -5. Therefore, the equation becomes:
y = -5x + c

Now, we need to get the value of c. To do so, we will substitute with the given point (3,-9) in the equation and solve for c as follows:
y = -5x + c
-9 = -5(3) + c
-9 = -15 + c
c = -9 + 15 = 6

Based on the above, equation of line is:
y = -5x + 6

Answers

The third and fourth methods described are more likely to yield unbiased results, whereas the first and second methods are prone to bias.

The manager of a sawmill wants to find out what percentage of the boards that the mill produced are defective. To determine this accurately, the manager must use unbiased sampling methods.

Biased Sampling Methods

On 1 day, an hour after the sawmill begins production, 30 boards in a row are selected and examined: This method is likely to be biased because it only considers boards produced during a specific timeframe, which might not represent the entire production cycle.

The manager sends an email to 20 customers who buy lumber from the mill, asking each how many of the boards they bought the past week were defective. Results from the first 5 customers to respond are tallied: This method is biased due to its reliance on customer self-reporting and the fact that only the first few respondents are considered, which might not be representative.

Possibly Unbiased Sampling Methods

The manager selects 20 boards at random each day for 5 days and examines them: This sampling method is likely to be unbiased as it involves random selection across multiple days, covering a broader production span.

Every 40th board produced over the course of 1 week is selected and examined: This method is less likely to be biased as it systematically covers the production over a week, though it might miss defects that occur in clusters shorter than 40 boards.

In summary, the third and fourth methods described are more likely to yield unbiased results, whereas the first and second methods are prone to bias.
