Final answer:
Allyson and Adrian have a 30 ft long bungee cord that stretches to 90 ft. After 2 seconds, the slack in the cord will not be used up. The bungee cord first becomes tight after 3 seconds, when Allyson reaches the end of the cord and Adrian has stretched it completely. The bungee cord first touches the corner of the building when Adrian has traveled twice the height of the building.
Explanation:
Physics - Elasticity and Motion:
a) After 2 seconds, Allyson would have moved a total distance of 10 ft/sec × 2 sec = 20 ft. Adrian would have moved a total distance of 8 ft/sec × 2 sec = 16 ft. Since the cord is 30 ft long and stretches to 90 ft, after 2 seconds, the slack in the cord would not be used up.
b) To determine when the bungee cord first becomes tight, we need to find the time it takes for one person to reach the end of the cord and the other person to stretch the cord completely. Allyson will take 30 ft ÷ 10 ft/sec = 3 sec to reach the end, while Adrian will take 30 ft ÷ 8 ft/sec = 3.75 sec to stretch the cord completely. Therefore, the bungee cord first becomes tight after 3 seconds, when Allyson is at the end of the cord and Adrian has stretched it completely.
c) To determine when the bungee cord first touches the corner of the building, we can use similar triangles. The ratio of the stretched length of the cord to the original length is the same as the ratio of the horizontal displacement to the height of the building. Let's assume the height of the building is H. Then, (90 ft - 30 ft) ÷ 30 ft = x ÷ H, where x is the horizontal distance traveled by Adrian. Solving for H, we find H = (90 ft - 30 ft) ÷ 30 ft × x = 2x. Therefore, the bungee cord first touches the corner of the building when Adrian has traveled twice the height of the building.

Solve the equation for y ...?
b+c=10/a
solve for a ...?
To solve the equation b + c = 10/a for a, isolate a on one side of the equation by multiplying both sides by a, distribute a to both terms inside the parentheses, and then solve for a by dividing both sides by (b + c).
Explanation:To solve the equation b + c = 10/a for a, we need to isolate a on one side of the equation. We can start by multiplying both sides of the equation by a to get rid of the denominator:
a(b + c) = 10
Next, we can distribute a to both terms inside the parentheses:
ab + ac = 10
Finally, we can solve for a by dividing both sides of the equation by (b + c):
a = 10 / (b + c)
A child takes a nap averaging three hours and gets an average of 12 hours of sleep at night. Nap time and night time sleep can each vary by 30 mins. What are the possible time lengths for the child's nap and night time sleep? ...?
Final answer:
The possible time lengths for the child's nap are 2.5 to 3.5 hours, and for night time sleep are 11.5 to 12.5 hours, as each can vary by up to 30 minutes.
Explanation:
The question asks about the possible time lengths for a child's nap and night time sleep, given that each can vary by 30 minutes. The average nap time is three hours, so the possible nap lengths range from 2.5 hours (3 hours - 30 minutes) to 3.5 hours (3 hours + 30 minutes). Similarly, the average night time sleep is 12 hours, meaning the possible night time sleep lengths range from 11.5 hours (12 hours - 30 minutes) to 12.5 hours (12 hours + 30 minutes).
The child's nap can be from 2.5 to 3.5 hours and night sleep from 11.5 to 12.5 hours, totaling a possible sleep range of 14 to 16 hours per day.
Explanation:The child's nap time can vary by 30 minutes from the average of 3 hours, meaning the possible lengths for nap time range from 2.5 hours to 3.5 hours. Similarly, the night time sleep also has a variability of 30 minutes from the average of 12 hours, which gives a range of 11.5 hours to 12.5 hours for night time sleep. Therefore, the possible lengths for the child's total sleep time can range from a minimum of 14 hours (2.5 hours nap + 11.5 hours night) to a maximum of 16 hours (3.5 hours nap + 12.5 hours night).
ABC has vertices A(0,6) B(4,6) C(1,3). Sketch a graph of ABC and use it to find the orthocenter of ABC. Then list the steps you took to find the orthocenter including any necessary points or slopes you had to derive.
To find the orthocenter of triangle ABC with vertices A(0,6), B(4,6), and C(1,3), one must plot the triangle, calculate the slopes of its sides, find the slopes and equations of the altitudes, and determine their intersection point, which is the orthocenter.
The question involves finding the orthocenter of the triangle ABC with vertices A(0,6), B(4,6), C(1,3). To find the orthocenter, we have to identify the altitudes of the triangle and find their point of intersection. Here are the steps:
Plot the points A(0,6), B(4,6), C(1,3) on the Cartesian coordinate system and draw the triangle ABC.Find the slopes of the sides of triangle ABC: The slope of AB is 0 (horizontal line), the slope of BC and AC can be found using the formula [tex](y_2 - y1) / (x_2 - x1)[/tex].Determine the slopes of the altitudes: The slope of an altitude is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the side it is perpendicular to.Find the equations of the lines representing the altitudes by using the point-slope form of the equation of a line, which involves a point on the line (vertex of the triangle) and the slope you've just found.Calculate the point of intersection of any two altitudes. The intersection point is the orthocenter of the triangle.Upon completing these steps, the point of intersection is the orthocenter of the triangle ABC.

Working alone mona can paint a room in 4 hours. lisa can paint the exact same room in 3 hours. how long should it take to paint the room if they work together?
To find out how long it would take Mona and Lisa to paint the room together, we need to calculate their combined work rate. Mona can paint the room in 4 hours, so her work rate is 1/4 of the room per hour. Lisa can paint the room in 3 hours, so her work rate is 1/3 of the room per hour. Their combined work rate is 7/12 of the room per hour. Therefore, it would take them approximately 1 hour and 43 minutes to paint the room together.
Explanation:To find out how long it would take Mona and Lisa to paint the room together, we need to calculate their combined work rate. Mona can paint the room in 4 hours, so her work rate is 1/4 of the room per hour. Lisa can paint the room in 3 hours, so her work rate is 1/3 of the room per hour. To calculate their combined work rate, we add their individual work rates: 1/4 + 1/3 = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12 of the room per hour. Since they are working together, we can use their combined work rate to determine how long it would take to paint the entire room. The formula to calculate time is: Time = Work / Rate. In this case, the work is the entire room, which is 1, and the rate is 7/12 of the room per hour. Therefore, the time to paint the room when they work together is: Time = 1 / (7/12) = 12/7 hours, or approximately 1 hour and 43 minutes.

the table below represents the total number of laps jessica swam in the pool this summer.
week 1 18 laps week 2 28 laps week 3 38 laps week 4 48 laps
if the linear function representing the number of laps jessica swam each week is f(w)=10w+8. what does the 10 represent in this function?
In the function f(w) 10w+8, the number 10 represents the number of laps Jessica increased her swim by each week.
To find out what the coefficient 10 represents in the linear function f(w) = 10w + 8, we need to understand the structure of the function.
In this function:
- w represents the week of the summer.
- f(w) represents the number of laps Jessica swam in week w.
- The coefficient 10 is multiplied by w, indicating a relationship.
Since the linear function represents the number of laps Jessica swam each week, the coefficient 10 represents the number of laps Jessica increased her swim by each week.
So, the correct answer is: C. The number of laps Jessica increased her swim by each week

Which equation, when graphed, has x-intercepts at (−1, 0) and (−5, 0) and a y-intercept at (0, −30)?
f(x) = −6(x + 1)(x + 5)
f(x) = −6(x − 1)(x − 5)
f(x) = −5(x + 1)(x + 5)
f(x) = −5(x − 1)(x − 5)
Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation has x intecepts at -1 and -5.
Hence function would be of the form
a(x+1)(x+5) for some real a.
To find a, let us use y intercept
When x =0 we have y =a(1)(5)
y intercept is given as -30
i.e. 5a = -30
a=-6
So
f(x) = -6(x+1)(x+5)
Option A is the right answer.
why is a circle not a polygon
Let's first go over the definition of a polygon.
A polygon a figure formed by coplanar segments. The segments are called sides.
A circle is not considered a polygon because it's formed by a curve rather than line segments.
