In Panama City in January, high tide was at midnight. The water level at high tide was 9 feet and 1 foot at low tide. Assuming the next high tide is exactly 12 hours later and that the height of the water can be modeled by a cosine curve, find an equation for water level in January for Panama City as a function of time (t).,
Answers
Problems where sine or cosine functions are used to model periodic behavior are problems in scaling. You need to match the period and amplitude of your scaled cosine function to the period and amplitude of the phenomenon you are modeling.
Here, high tides are 12 hours apart, so we need to scale x by a factor that turns 12 hours into 2π. That might be x ⇒ 2πx/12 or (π/6)x.
The high tide is 9 ft, and the low tide is 1 ft, so we need to do vertical offset and scaling to make the peak of our transformed cosine function be 9 and its minimum be 1. That difference is 8, so has an amplitude of ±4 around a midline of (9+1)/2 = 5.
Then our tide model is
.. water level = 5 +4*cos((π/6)t)

John rolls a number cube twice. What is the probability that the sum of the 2 rolls is less than 7, given that the first roll is a 1?
one over six
one over three
one over two
five over six
Answers
There are 6 ways we can roll two dice and have the first number be a 1:
1, 1
1, 2
1, 3
1, 4
1, 5
1, 6
Out of these, 5 possibilities give us a sum less than 7:
1, 1
1, 2
1, 3
1, 4
1, 5
Thus we have 5/6.
Answer: The correct option is (d) five over six.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that John rolls a number cube twice. We are to find the probability that the sum of the 2 rolls is less than 8 given that he first roll is a 1.
The sample space of an event of rolling a cube is
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.
That is, n(S) = 6.
Now, let 'A' be the event that the sum of the two rolls is less than 7, then
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.
That is, n(A) = 5.
So, the probability of happening of event A is given by
[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{5}{6}.[/tex]
Thus, the required probability is five over six.
Option (d) is correct.

What are the zeros of the quadratic function f(x) = 8x2 – 16x – 15? x = –1 – and x = –1 + x = –1 – and x = –1 + x = 1 – and x = 1 + x = 1 – and x = 1 +
Answers
To find the zeros of the quadratic function [tex]\( f(x) = 8x^2 - 16x - 15 \)[/tex], you need to solve for [tex]\( x \) when \( f(x) = 0 \)[/tex].
So, you set \( f(x) \) equal to zero:
[tex]\[ 8x^2 - 16x - 15 = 0 \][/tex]
To solve this quadratic equation, you can use the quadratic formula:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{{-b \pm \sqrt{{b^2 - 4ac}}}}{{2a}} \]where \( a = 8 \), \( b = -16 \), and \( c = -15 \).[/tex]
Plugging these values into the quadratic formula:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{{-(-16) \pm \sqrt{{(-16)^2 - 4(8)(-15)}}}}{{2(8)}} \]\[ x = \frac{{16 \pm \sqrt{{256 + 480}}}}{{16}} \]\[ x = \frac{{16 \pm \sqrt{{736}}}}{{16}} \][/tex]
Now, you simplify the expression under the square root:
[tex]\[ \sqrt{736} = \sqrt{16 \times 46} = 4\sqrt{46} \][/tex]
So, the expression becomes:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{{16 \pm 4\sqrt{46}}}{{16}} \][/tex]
Now, you can simplify further:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{{4(4 \pm \sqrt{46})}}{{4 \times 4}} \]\[ x = \frac{{4 \pm \sqrt{46}}}{{4}} \][/tex]
This gives you two solutions:
[tex]\[ x = \frac{{4 + \sqrt{46}}}{{4}} \]\[ x = \frac{{4 - \sqrt{46}}}{{4}} \][/tex]
These are the zeros of the quadratic function [tex]\( f(x) = 8x^2 - 16x - 15 \).[/tex]

The difference of two numbers is 44 1/2 . If the smaller of the two numbers increases 7 times then the difference will be 10 3/14 . Find the numbers.
The numbers are: ___ ,___ or ____,___
Answers
To find these answer you have to write the following two equations.
x - y = 44 and 1/2
7y - x = 10 and 3/14
Then, you can use the substitution method to solve them. Change the first equation to: x = 44 + y. Substitute that into the second equation and solve for y. Once you have that, plug it back into the first equation and solve for x.
The smaller number is 11 and the larger number is [tex]55 \frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Let's denote the two numbers as x and y, where x is the smaller number. We're given that [tex]y - x = 44 \frac{1}{2}[/tex] and [tex]7x - y = 10 \frac{3}{14}[/tex].
To solve this system of equations, we can use substitution or elimination. Let's use elimination:
1. Multiply the second equation by 2 to clear fractions: [tex]14x - 2y = 20 \frac{6}{14}[/tex].
2. Add the modified second equation to the first equation:
[tex](y - x) + (14x - 2y) = 44 \frac{1}{2} + 20 \frac{6}{14}[/tex]
[tex]13x - y = 64 \frac{11}{14}[/tex]
Now, we have a simpler equation: [tex]13x - y = 64 \frac{11}{14}[/tex].
3. Add this equation to the original second equation to find x:
[tex]7x - y + 13x - y = 10 \frac{3}{14} + 64 \frac{11}{14}[/tex]
[tex]20x - 2y = 75[/tex]
4. Now, we can solve this equation along with the first equation to find x and y.
After solving, we get x = 11 and [tex]y = 55 \frac{1}{2}[/tex].
The smaller number is 11 and the larger number is [tex]55 \frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Thus, the numbers are [tex]{11 \text{ and } 55 \frac{1}{2}}[/tex].

Find the value of x, if you know the hypotenuse is 10 and 1 of the sides is 5. X is the other side.
Answers
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]
Solve for b (c is the hypotenuse and it doesn't matter which side is a or b):
[tex]b = \sqrt{c^2-a^2} = \sqrt{10^2-5^2} = \sqrt{100-25} = \sqrt{75} [/tex]
We can simplify this:
[tex] \sqrt{75} = \sqrt{25*3} = 5 \sqrt{3} [/tex]
So, your answer is, b = [tex]5 \sqrt{3} [/tex]
For questions like these, where you are given the hypotenuse & one side of a triangle, then we can very simply use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x.
Pythagorean Theorem : a² + b² = c²
Where :
a = side length
b = another side length
c = hypotenuse
Since we are given 10 as the hypotenuse and 5 as a side length, we can very simply plug these into the Pythagorean theorem.
a² + b² = c²
We'll plug 10 into 'c' and 5 into 'a.'
(5²) + b² = (10²)
Simplify.
25 + b² = 100
Now, subtract 25 from both sides.
b² = 100 - 25
Simplify.
b² = 75
Now, find the square root of b² and 75.
[tex] \sqrt{b^2} = \sqrt{75} [/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]b = 5 \sqrt{3} [/tex]
Therefore, our final side length is : [tex]5 \sqrt{3} [/tex]

Find the measure of each angle please?
Answers
The measure of angle x is 60 degrees so the measure of angles 2x is 120 degrees.
Since both interior angles are supplementary to congruent angles, they are congruent.
Let z be the measure of each upper interior angle.
2x + z = 180
z = 180 - 2x
Each upper interior angle measures 180 - 2x.
The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180.
180 - 2x + 180 - 2x + x = 180
-3x + 360 = 180
-3x = -180
x = 60
One interior angle measures x, so it measures 60 deg.
The other two interior angles measure 180 - 2x = 180 - 2(60) = 180 - 120 = 60
Answer: all interior angle measure 60 deg.
The exterior angles shown measure 120 deg each.

Now know how much it would be after the discount we'll have to find out how much it would be per puppy treat.
Step2 dividing the # of treats and the price after discount
The discount price 7.14 / The amount of treats per bag 42 = $0.17 per treat
So it would be $0.17 for each treat.
Hope this helps!
Andrew's price per puppy treat, after using a $2.80 coupon on a $9.94 bag that contains 42 treats, will be $0.17.
Andrew has a coupon that will reduce the price of puppy treats. Without the coupon, one bag of treats costs $9.94 and contains 42 treats. To find the price per treat after using the $2.80 coupon, we first subtract the coupon value from the original price of the bag. This gives us the discounted price of the bag:
Discounted Price = Original Price - Coupon Value = $9.94 - $2.80 = $7.14
Next, we find the price per treat by dividing the discounted price of the bag by the number of treats in the bag:
Price per Treat = Discounted Price ÷ Number of Treats = $7.14 ÷ 42 = $0.17 (rounded to two decimal places)
After using the coupon, the price per puppy treat will be $0.17.
