A police officer investigating a car accident finds a skid mark of 115 ft in length.

How fast was the car going when the driver hit the brakes?
Round your answer to the nearest mile per hour.

mph

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed of car = 49 mph (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of skid marked = 115 ft

Formula for skid mark = S = √21d

Where d = Length of skid marked

Find:

Speed of car

Computation:

Speed of car = √21d

Speed of car = √21(115)

Speed of car = √2,415

Speed of car = 49.1426

Speed of car = 49 mph (Approx.)

A jet flew 2660 miles in 4.75 hours. What is the rate of speed in miles per hour? (The proportion would be 2660 : 4.75 ::X:1 Set the proportion in fractional form and proceed to find x.)​

Answers

Answer:

X = 560

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance / time

Distance = 2660 miles

Time taken = 4.75 hours

Writing the equation in terms of proportion :

Rate or speed = Distance : time

Speed = 2660 : 4.75

Reducing to lowest term ;

Divide both sides by 4.75

Hence, we have ;

Speed = 2660/4.75 : 4.75/4.75

Speed = 560 : 1

Comparing with the proportion in the question, X = 560

The length of another axis for the given ellipse will be around 25.6125 feet so none of the options will be correct.

What is an ellipse?

a regular oval form produced when a cone is cut by an oblique plane that does not intersect the base, or when a point moves in a plane so that the sum of its distances from two other points remains constant.

In another word, an ellipse is a curve that becomes by a point moving in such a way that the sum of its distances from two fixed points is a closed planar curve produced.

General equation of an ellipse

(x 2 / a 2 )+ (y2 / b 2 )= 1

Given that

the plot of land is 40 feet across one axis

so  2a = 40 feet

a = 20 feet

The foci are 16 feet from the center so

c = 16

Now we know that

c = √(b² - a²)  

c² = b² - a²

16² = b² - 20²

b = 25.6125  

So, the length of the minor axis will be around 25.6125 feet.

This question is solved using relative frequency concepts, finding the following two way frequency table, with the - separating the values:

0.4290 - 0.0540 - 0.4839

0.0581 - 0.4581 - 0.5161

0.4871 - 0.5121 - 1

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

Relative frequency:

The relative frequency of a to b is given by a divided by b.

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

Democratic:

Total of 150 + 160 = 310 voters.

Of the 150 Democrats, 133 voted for the Democrat and 150 - 133 = 17 voted for the Republican.

The frequencies are:

[tex]\frac{133}{310} = 0.4290, \frac{17}{310} = 0.0548[/tex]

Proportion of democratic voters is:

[tex]\frac{150}{310} = 0.4839[/tex]

Thus, the first line is: 0.4290 - 0.0540 - 0.4839

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

Republican:

Of the 160 Republicans, 142 voted for the Republican and 160 - 142 = 18 voted for the Democrat.

The frequencies are:

[tex]\frac{18}{310} = 0.0581, \frac{142}{310} = 0.4581[/tex]

The proportion of republican voters is:

Third line:

0.4290 + 0.0581 = 0.4871

0.0540 + 0.4581 = 0.5121

0.4839 + 0.5161 = 1

Answers

Answer: there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. Meters to centimeters multiply by 100. Centimeters to meters divide by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meters to centimeters multiply by 100

(10,000 m ) (100) = 1,000,000 cm.

(100 m) (100) = 10,000 cm.

Centimeters to meters divide by 100.

100 cm / 100 = 1 meter

In ∆ ABC,AD is the altitude from A to BC .Angle B is 48°,angle C is 52° and BC is 12,8 cm. Determine the length of AD

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7,6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines can be used to find the length AB.

  AB/sin(C) = BC/sin(A)

A = 180° -48° -52° = 80°

  AB = BC·sin(C)/sin(A) = 12,8·sin(52°)/sin(80°)

The sine function can be used to find AD from AB.

  AD/AB = sin(48°)

  AD = AB·sin(48°) = 12,8·sin(48°)sin(52°)/sin(80°)

  AD ≈ 7,61 cm

Answer:

  A: -1, 3/5

  B: (-1/5, -3 1/5)

  2: plot the given points and draw a curve through them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The x-intercepts are most easily found from a graph of the function. I like the Desmos graphing calculator for this purpose. The x-intercepts are -1 and 3/5.

You can also find the x-intercepts by factoring the function.

  f(x) = 5x^2 +5x -3x -3 = 5x(x +1) -3(x +1) = (5x -3)(x +1)

The x-intercepts are the values of x that make the factors zero:

  5x -3 = 0   ⇒   x = 3/5

  x +1 = 0   ⇒   x = -1

__

Part B

The vertex is on the axis of symmetry, which is the vertical line at the value of x halfway between the zeros. (-1 +3/5)/2 = (-2/5)/2 = -1/5

The value of f(x) there is ...

  f(-1/5) = (5(-1/5) +2)(-1/5) -3 = (-1 +2)(-1/5) -3 = -1/5 -3 = -3 1/5

The vertex is (-1/5, -3 1/5).

__

Part 2

The easiest step to take to graph the function is to type it into a graphing calculator (see attached).

If you're graphing this by hand, the three points given in parts A and B will be on the graph. The leading coefficient in the function is 3, so the x^2 parent function is vertically stretched by a factor of 3. This can make it a little more difficult to find points that lie on the graph.

Recognizing that the vertex form equation is ...

  f(x) = 3(x +1/5) -3 1/5

I might choose x-values that are -1/5 ± 1/2 to get y-values that are -3 1/5 + 3/4. And, x = -1/5 ± 1 ⇒ y = -3 1/5 +3.
