In a basketball game, Noli scored 3 points by shooting the ball at a horizontal distance of 7 feet from the 10-feet-high hoop. Noli threw the ball 6 feet above the ground and the ball went twice as high as its initial horizontal distance from the hoop. What was the horizontal distance of the ball from Noli when it reached its maximum height?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The horizontal distance of the ball from Noli when it reached maximum height is approximately 4.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal distance from the hoop at which Noli threw the ball, y₀ = 7 feet

The height of the hoop = 10 feet

The height from which the ball was thrown = 6 feet

The height to which the ball is thrown = 2 × The initial horizontal distance from the hoop

∴ The height to which the ball is thrown, [tex]y_{max}[/tex] = 2 × 7 feet = 14 feet

The coordinates of points on the path of the ball are;

(0, 6), (7, 10), (x, 14)

The projectile in vertex form is y = a·(x - h)² + k

Where;

(h, k) = The x, and y-coordinate of the maximum height

The y-coordinate of the maximum height reached = k = 14 feet

The x-coordinate of the maximum height = h = The horizontal distance of the ball from Noli when it reached maximum height

At y = 6, x = 0, therefore, we get;

6 = a·(0 - h)² + 14 = a·h² + 14

6 = a·h² + 14

a = -8/h²

At y = 10, x = 7, we get;

10 = a·(7 - h)² + 14 = (-8/h²)·(7 - h)² + 14

10·h² = -8·(7 - h)² + 14·h²

-4·h² =  -8·(7 - h)²

4·h² - 8·(7 - h)² = 0

-4·h² + 112·h - 392 = 0

h = (-112 ± √(112² - 4 × (-4) × (-392)))/(2 × -4)

h ≈ 4.1, or h ≈ 23.9

We reject the value, h ≈ 23.9 feet given that the distance between the where the Noli threw the ball and the hoop = 7 feet

Therefore, the horizontal distance of the ball from Noli at which the ball reached its maximum height, h ≈ 4.1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 3%. Then (x -500) is the amount invested at 2%, and 4x is the amount invested at 4%. The total interest income is ...

  0.02(x -500) + 0.03x + 0.04(4x) = 179

  0.21x -10 = 179 . . . . . simplify

  0.21x = 189 . . . . . . . . add 10

  x = 900 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.21

  x -500 = 400

  4x = 3600

$400 is invested at 2%; $900 is invested at 3%, $3600 is invested at 4%.

I just need help with 4.2 and 4.3​

Answers

Problem 4.2

We're told that y = 2x is the equation of the tangent line through point Q.

Plug this into the equation of the circle (that was given at the very top of the page). Solve for x.

x^2 + y^2 - 18x - 6y + 45 = 0

x^2 + (2x)^2 - 18x - 6(2x) + 45 = 0 ... every "y" replaced with "2x"

x^2 + 4x^2 - 18x - 12x + 45 = 0

5x^2 - 30x + 45 = 0

5(x^2 - 6x + 9) = 0

5(x-3)^2 = 0

(x-3)^2 = 0

x-3 = 0

x = 3

This then means y = 2x = 2*3 = 6

The coordinates of point Q are (x,y) = (3,6)

----------

Answer:  (3,6)

===========================================================

Problem 4.3

We first need to find the location of point S. That will involve solving this system of equations

[tex]\begin{cases}x-2y+12=0\\y = 2x\end{cases}[/tex]

which represent the equations of lines SR and QS in that exact order.

Like before, we'll apply substitution to solve for x.

x-2y+12 = 0

x-2(2x)+12 = 0

x-4x+12 = 0

-3x+12 = 0

12 = 3x

12/3 = x

4 = x

x = 4

Which leads to y = 2x = 2*4 = 8

Point S is located at (4,8)

Point R is given to be located at (6,9)

Apply the distance formula for these two points to find the length of SR (aka the distance from S to R).

[tex]S = (x_1,y_1) = (4,8)\\\\R = (x_2,y_2) = (6,9)\\\\d = \text{Length of SR, aka distance from S to R}\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(4-6)^2 + (8-9)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-1)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{4 + 1}\\\\d = \sqrt{5}\\\\d \approx 2.236068\\\\[/tex]

The exact length is [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] and that approximates to roughly 2.236068 units.

----------

Answer:

Exact length = [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] units

Approximate length = 2.236068 units

37.15 pounds left

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the two pound values

1.3+1.75= 3.05

Subtract it from the total number of pounds in the bag

40.2-3.05

=37.15

So you would start by adding up the total amount he ate. So that would be

1.3 + 1.75 = 3.05

Then you have to subtract the amount he ate from the total amount.

40.2 - 3.05 = 37.15

So your answer would be 37.15 let me know if you don’t understand something, more than happy to help.

[tex]x+y=937[/tex]

[tex]x=937-y[/tex]  ...... ( 1 )

As the total sale amount is $1109, the equation would be to add up the ticket fee:

Put ( 1 ) into ( 2 ):

[tex]2(937-y)+0.75y=1,109[/tex]

[tex]1874-2y+0.75y=1,109[/tex]

A class of 40 students took a math test 18 of the students had a weighted average of 80. The other students had a weighted average of 70. What is the average score of the whole class? A) 74 B) 74.5 C) 76 D) 76.5​

Answers

Answer:  B) 74.5

==========================================================

Explanation:

Average = (sum of scores)/(number of scores)

We can turn that equation into symbolic form to say

A = S/n

We're told that "18 students had an average of 80" (paraphrased) which means,

A = S/n

80 = S/18

80*18 = S

S = 1440

Those 18 students' scores add up to 1440.

For the other group of 40-18 = 22 students, their scores add to

S = A*n

S = 70*22

S = 1540

Overall, everyone's scores add up to 1440+1540 = 2980

Divide this over the number of people in class (40) to get the final answer

2980/40 = 74.5

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

Here's an alternative way to compute the answer

(18/40)*80 + (22/40)*70 = 74.5

This works because 18/40 of the class got an average of 80 while the remaining 22/40 of the class got an average of 70.

The equation y = mx + b goes through the points (6,-2) and (-6,-8).
What is the value of m?
What is the value of b?

Answers

Answer:

m = 1/2

b = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line of the points (6,-2) and (-6,-8) is y = 1/2x — 5

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The value of m and b in the given equation is 0.5 and -5, respectively.

What is the equation of a line?

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of a line is given by,

y =mx + c

where,

x is the coordinate of the x-axis,

y is the coordinate of the y-axis,

m is the slope of the line, and

c is the y-intercept.

The given equation is the equation of a line, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line. Therefore, the value of m or the slope of the equation is,

m = [-8 - (-2)] / [-6 - 6] = -6/-12 = 0.5

Now, substitute the value of x, y, and m in the given equation, therefore, the value of b can be written as,

y = mx + b

-2 = 0.5(6) = b

-2 = 3 + b

b = -2 + -3

b = -5

Hence, the value of m and b in the given equation is 0.5 and -5, respectively.
