Given:
The height of a basketball is given by the function:
[tex]h(x)=-0.5x^2+3x+6[/tex]
where x is the horizontal distance from where it is thrown.
To find:
How far away from the basket should the player stand in order for the ball to go in the basket (10 feet high) on its way down.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]h(x)=-0.5x^2+3x+6[/tex]
Putting [tex]h(x)=10[/tex], we get
[tex]10=-0.5x^2+3x+6[/tex]
[tex]10+\dfrac{1}{2}x^2-3x-6=0[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}x^2-3x+4=0[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 2.
[tex]x^2-6x+8=0[/tex]
Splitting the middle term, we get
[tex]x^2-4x-2x+8=0[/tex]
[tex]x(x-4)-2(x-4)=0[/tex]
[tex](x-2)(x-4)=0[/tex]
[tex]x=2,4[/tex]
In the given function the leading coefficient is negative, so the given function represents a downward parabola. It means, first the function is increasing after that the function is decreasing.
So, the value of the function is 10 at [tex]x=2[/tex] (its way up) and at [tex]x=4[/tex] (its way down.
Therefore, the player should stand 4 units away from the basket in order for the ball to go in the basket (10 feet high) on its way down.

Triangle DEF is an isosceles, so AngleDEF Is-congruent-toAngleDFE. A horizontal line has points C, F, E, G. 2 lines extend from the line at points F and E to form an isosceles triangle with point D. Angle DEF measures 75°. What is the measure of angle CFD?
Answer:
[tex]\angle CFD =105^o[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\angle D FE = \angle DE F = 75^o[/tex]
See attachment
Required
Determine the measure of [tex]\angle CFD[/tex]
[tex]\angle CFD[/tex] and [tex]\angle DFE[/tex] are on a straight line.
So:
[tex]\angle CFD + \angle DFE = 180^o[/tex] --- angle on a straight line
Substitute known values
[tex]\angle CFD + 75^o = 180^o[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]\angle CFD =- 75^o + 180^o[/tex]
[tex]\angle CFD =105^o[/tex]

D.1.26
Answer:
2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The lower number will always be on the right side unless its negative numbers , So the lower number is 2.25 , Why it isn't 1.26 is because its much far from 2.26 and so cannot be counted . Thanks

The cars get miles to the gallon. After the car has traveled miles. 2 2/3 gallons of gas has been consummed
Answer:
80 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find attached the graph used in answering this question
On the graph, the distance travelled is on the vertical axis while the gallons consumed in on the horizontal axis
from the graph, the following can be deduced :
0 gallons is consumed when the car travels 0 mile
1 gallon is consumed when the car travels 30 miles
2 gallons is consumed when the car travels 60 miles
total mile travelled when the gallons consumed is : 2 2/3 x 30
8/3 x 30 = 80 miles
x>0, y>0, 2x+3y=8, smallest value of xy? pls help me
Answer:
where there is x in the equation we put 0
For y
=2(0)+3y=8
=0+3y=8 Group likely terms
=3y=8-0
=3y=8 Divide both sides by 3
=3y/3=8/3
Therefore y=2.6
For x
=2x+3y=8
=2x+3(0)=8
=2x+0=8 Group likely terms
=2x=8-0
=2x=8 Divide both sides by 2
=2x/2=8/2
Therefore x=4
The smallest numbers for x and y is 4 and 2.6 respectively
three forth of a number excceed its one third by 15, find the number
The required value of x is 36
Step-by-step explanation :
Let the required number be x.
Three fourth of number = (3/4)x
One third of number = (1/3) x
According to the question ;
3x/4 = x/3 + 15
→ 3x/4-x/3 = 15
→ 9x - 4x / 12 = 15
→ 5x = 15 x 12
⇒ x = 180 / 5
⇒ x = 36

Answer:
1.2x10^-1 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
0.12 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
just think - how long does it take you to travel for example 30 km, if you are going 60 km/h ?
you have to divide 30 by 60 and get 0.5 or 1/2. meaning it takes you (logically) 30 minutes or half an hour to do so.
it is the same principle for all these kinds of questions.
we only need to keep an eye on the dimension of what we are talking about. is it hours or seconds ? meters or kilometers ? and do in
we need here to focus on seconds and to calculate
3.6×10⁷ / 3×10⁸ = 3.6 / 3×10¹ = 1.2 / 10 = 0.12 seconds

A rocket is launched from the top of a 76-foot cliff with an initial velocity of 135 ft/s. a. Substitute the values into the vertical motion formula h = –16t2 + vt + c. Let h = 0. b. Use the quadratic formula to find out how long the rocket will take to hit the ground after it is launched. Round to the nearest tenth of a second.
A. 0 = –16t2 + 135t + 76; 0.5 s
B. 0 = –16t2 + 76t + 135; 9 s
C. 0 = –16t2 + 76t + 135; 0.5 s
D. 0 = –16t2 + 135t + 76; 9 s
Answer:
The answer is 2.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given initial velocity=135 ft/s
& cliff=76 foot
Given quadratic equation
⇒ (let h=0 it is given)
⇒
⇒
⇒ t=8.96≈9 s (the other root is negative)
Hence, rocket will take 9 s to hit the ground after launched.
Answer: Choice D
0 = 16t^2 + 135t + 76; 9 s
==============================================
Explanation:
The equation we start with is
[tex]h = -16t^2 + vt + c\\\\[/tex]
where v is the starting or initial velocity, and c is the starting height.
We're told that v = 135 and c = 76
We let h = 0 to indicate when the object hits the ground, aka the height is 0 ft.
That means the equation updates to [tex]0 = -16t^2 + 135t + 76\\\\[/tex]
Based on that alone, the answer is between A or D
-------------------
We'll use the quadratic formula to solve for t
We have
a = -16b = 135c = 76So,
[tex]t = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\\\\t = \frac{-135 \pm \sqrt{135^2 - 4(-16)(76)}}{2(-16)}\\\\t = \frac{-135 \pm \sqrt{23,089}}{-32}\\\\t \approx \frac{-135 \pm 151.9506}{-32}\\\\t \approx \frac{-135 + 151.9506}{-32} \ \text{ or } \ t \approx \frac{-135 - 151.9506}{-32}\\\\t \approx \frac{16.9506}{-32} \ \text{ or } \ t \approx \frac{-286.9506}{-32}\\\\t \approx -0.52971 \ \text{ or } \ t \approx 8.96721\\\\[/tex]
We ignore the negative t value because a negative time duration makes no sense.
The only practical solution here is roughly 8.96721 which rounds to 9.0 or simply 9 when we round to the nearest tenth (one decimal place).
In short, the object will hit the ground at the 9 second mark roughly. Or put another way: the object is in the air for about 9 seconds.
From this, we can see that the final answer is choice D.

2. 8x = 32 subtract 1 from each side
3. x = 4 Divide both sides by 8
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+4x+1=33
Combine like (similar) terms:

The diagram above shows a plan for a park. ABCD is a rectangle.
APB and DQC are semicircles centred at X and Y.
Given AB = 7 cm and AC = 25 cm.
Calculate the perimeter of the park in cm.
Answer:
Perimeter of the park = 70 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the park = perimeter of the 2 semicircles + 2(length of the rectangle)
Perimeter = 2πr + 2(BC)
✔️Perimeter of the 2 semicircles = 2πr
Where,
radius (r) = ½(AB) = ½(7)
r = 3.5 cm
Perimeter = 2*π*3.5 = 7*π
Perimeter of the two semicircles = 21.9911486 ≈ 22 cm
✔️Find BC using Pythagorean theorem:
Thus,
BC = √(AC² - AB²)
AC = 25
AB = 7
BC = √(25² - 7²) = √576
BC = 24
✔️Perimeter of the park = perimeter of the 2 semicircles + 2(length of the rectangle)
Perimeter of the park = 22 + 2(24)
= 22 + 48
= 70 cm

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 9 cm and the other leg measures 2 cm. Find the measure of the hypotenuse. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
Approximately 9.2
Step-by-step explanation:
For right triangle, if you know 2 sides, you can find the third using pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. 'a' and 'b' are the lengths of the legs, while 'c' is the hypotenuse. You can plug in what you know into this formula:
9^2 + 2^2 = c^2
81+4 = c^2
c = √85, or approximately 9.2

What is the measure of each intercepted arc for each inscribed angle of a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The inscribed angles are made up of the remote interior angles of this hexagon, of which each of them measures 120 degrees. That means that if this is measure of the inscribed angle, the arc this angle intercepts is twice the degree measure of the inscribed angle. The arcs then will all measure 240 degrees.
