The end of a hose was resting on the ground, pointing up an angle. Sal measured the path of the water coming out of the hose and found that it could be modeled using the equation f(x) = –0.3x2 + 2x, where f(x) is the height of the path of the water above the ground, in feet, and x is the horizontal distance of the path of the water from the end of the hose, in feet.

When the water was 4 feet from the end of the hose, what was its height above the ground?

Answers

find f(4)
f(4)=-0.3(4^2)+2(4)
f(4)=-0.3(16)+8
f(4)=-4.8+8
f(4)=3.2

3.2ft above the ground

Answer:

3.2 feet


Step-by-step explanation:

The equation  [tex]f(x)=-0.3x^{2}+2x[/tex]  shows the height of water [[tex]f(x)[/tex]] and horizontal distance [[tex]x[/tex]].

Given the horizontal distance is 4 feet, they want to know the height.


Simply put 4 in [tex]x[/tex] of the equation and solve for [tex]f(x)[/tex]. So,

[tex]f(x)=-0.3(4)^{2}+2(4)\\f(x)=3.2[/tex]

So, the height of the water was 3.2 feet above the ground.

What unit of measurement would Guatemalans typically use to measure the weight of flour?

Answers

In general, Guatemalans also use the metric system, but also some traditional units of measurement (that come from Spain) and influence from US English units. Among the Guatemalan units of measurement some are based on old Spanish units. The libra, arroba, quintal and garrafón units of weight and volume. Guatemalans use also measures like spoons and cups. Therefore, when they weigh the measure of flour, they are using either the ibra, arroba, quintal and garrafón units. Hope this helps.

can someone explain how to find two positive numbers such that their product is 192 and the sum of the first plus three times the second is a minimum?

Answers

Let the two numbers be y and x, then
xy = 192
y = 192/x
dy/dx = -192/x^-2 . . . (1)

Sum (S) = y + 3x
If the sum is minimum, then
dS/dx = dy/dx + 3 = 0
dy/dx = -3

From (1), -192/x^2 = -3
3x^2 = 192
x^2 = 192/3 = 64
x = sqrt(64) = 8
y = 192/8 = 24

The two positive numbers are 8 and 24.

sin(32)= 17/x
x= 17 / sin(32)
x= 32.08

approximately 32.1

Answer:

(A) 32.1

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that in ΔDEF, DE=17 and m∠F=32, thus

Using the trigonometry, we have

[tex]sinx=\frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}=\frac{DE}{DF}[/tex]

⇒[tex]sin32^{\circ}=\frac{17}{DF}[/tex]

⇒[tex]DF=\frac{17}{sin32^{\circ}}[/tex]

⇒[tex]DF=\frac{17}{0.529}[/tex]

⇒[tex]DF=32.1[/tex]

Therefore, the value of DF is 32.1.

Hence option A is correct.

What does x equal

8=3+x/-6

Answers

First, we need to isolate the x by removing the 3 from the x.

8=3+x/-6
8-3 = 3-3+x/-6
5 = x/-6.

Then you remove the -6 from the x and since it is being divided by x we multiply it
5 x -6 = x/-6x-6
-30 = x
So x = -30 
Step 1. Move the negative sign to the left

[tex]8=3- \frac{x}{6} [/tex]

Step 2. Subtract 3 from both sides

[tex]8-3=- \frac{x}{6} [/tex]

Step 3.  Simplify 8 - 3 to 5

[tex]5=- \frac{x}{6} [/tex]

Step 4. Multiply both sides by 6

[tex]5 * 6= -x[/tex]

Step 5. Simplify 5 * 6 to 30

[tex]30=-x[/tex]

Step 6. Multiply both sides by -1

[tex]-30=x[/tex]

Step 7. Switch sides

[tex]x=-30[/tex]

Done! :) Hope this helps!

Express x in terms of the other variables in the diagram below:

Answers

From the diagram below , x = t ( r - h ) / h

Further explanation

Firstly , let us learn about trigonometry in mathematics.

Suppose the ΔABC is a right triangle and ∠A is 90°.

sin ∠A = opposite / hypotenusecos ∠A = adjacent / hypotenusetan ∠A = opposite / adjacent

There are several trigonometric identities that need to be recalled, i.e.

[tex]cosec ~ A = \frac{1}{sin ~ A}[/tex]

[tex]sec ~ A = \frac{1}{cos ~ A}[/tex]

[tex]cot ~ A = \frac{1}{tan ~ A}[/tex]

[tex]tan ~ A = \frac{sin ~ A}{cos ~ A}[/tex]

Let us now tackle the problem!

Look at ΔADE in the attachment.

We will use the following formula to find relationship between variable t and h:

tan ∠A = opposite / adjacent

[tex]\tan \angle A = \frac{DE}{AD}[/tex]

[tex]\large {\boxed{ \tan \angle A = \frac{h}{t} } }[/tex] → Equation 1

Look at ΔABC in the attachment.

We will use the following formula to find relationship between variable r , t and x:

tan ∠A = opposite / adjacent

[tex]\tan \angle A = \frac{BC}{AB}[/tex]

[tex]\large {\boxed{ \tan \angle A = \frac{r}{x + t} } }[/tex] → Equation 2

Next we can substitute equation 1 to equation 2 :

[tex]\tan \angle A = \frac{r}{x+t}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{h}{t} = \frac{r}{x+t}[/tex]

[tex](x + t)h = r ~ t[/tex]

[tex](x + t) = \frac{(r ~ t)}{h}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{(r ~ t)}{h} - t[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{(r ~ t)}{h} - \frac{(h ~ t)}{h}[/tex]

Tommy has a pet monkey. Every day, his monkey eats 4 apples in the morning. The monkey also eats two bananas for every banana that Tommy eats.

Write an equation to describe this situation where x is the number of bananas Tommy eats and y is the total number of pieces of fruit the monkey eats.

Answers

Monkey to Tommy = 2:1
x = (y-4)/2
y = 2x + 4

For x, we must first work out the amount of bananas the monkey eats by subtracting the total amount of fruit by the amount of apples, giving us the amount of bananas - them dividing that number by 2 as the ratio is 2:1.

For y, we double x which is our amount of bananas that tommy eats as the ratio is 2:1 them add on the amount of apples which is 4.

Answer:

The required equation is : [tex]2x+4[/tex]

For spring break this year your family decided to visit Michigan, but it snows the first weekend you are there. You decide to make a snowman. If the bottom ball is 3 feet across, the middle ball is 2 feet across, and the top is 1 foot across, how much snow is needed to build the whole snowman? Round your answer to the nearest cubic foot.
A)
19 cubic feet of snow
B)
31 cubic feet of snow
C)
511 cubic feet of snow
D)
1022 cubic feet of snow ...?

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

To find the amount of snow needed to build the snowman, we need to calculate the volume of each ball and then add them together. The total volume is 18.84 cubic feet, rounded to 19 cubic feet.So,Option A.19 cubic feet of snow is correct.

Explanation:

To find how much snow is needed to build the whole snowman, we need to calculate the volume of each ball and then add them together. The volume of a sphere can be found using the formula V = (4/3) * pi * r³, where r is the radius of the sphere.

The bottom ball has a diameter of 3 feet, so the radius is 3/2 = 1.5 feet. The volume of the bottom ball is (4/3) * 3.14 * (1.5³) = 14.13 cubic feet.

The middle ball has a diameter of 2 feet, so the radius is 2/2 = 1 foot. The volume of the middle ball is (4/3) * 3.14 * (1³) = 4.19 cubic feet.

The top ball has a diameter of 1 foot, so the radius is 1/2 = 0.5 feet. The volume of the top ball is (4/3) * 3.14 * (0.5³) = 0.52 cubic feet.

The total volume of the snowman is 14.13 + 4.19 + 0.52 = 18.84 cubic feet. Therefore, the answer is 19 cubic feet of snow.

In the week before and the week after a holiday there were 10,000 total deaths and 4968 of them occurred in the week before the holiday.

a) construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of deaths in the week before the holiday to the total death in the week before and the week after the holiday

b) based on the result does there appear to be any indication that people can temporarily postpone their death to survive the holiday

Answers

Final answer:

The confidence interval is calculated based on the given values and can help determine if deaths are temporarily postponed during holidays.

Explanation:

To construct a confidence interval estimate of the proportion of deaths in the week before the holiday to the total deaths in the week before and after the holiday, we can use the formula:

p ± z √(p(1- p/ n)

where p is the sample proportion, z is the z-score, and n is the sample size.

In this case, the sample proportion is p = 4968/10000 = 0.4968.

The z-score corresponding to a 90% confidence interval is approximately 1.645. The sample size is n = 10000.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

0.4968 ± 1.645 √((0.4968 * 0.5032) / 10000)

Calculating this expression gives us the confidence interval estimate.

Based on the result, we can assess whether there is an indication that people can temporarily postpone their death to survive the holiday. If the lower limit of the confidence interval is significantly lower than the proportion of deaths in the week after the holiday, it suggests that there is a decrease in deaths in the week before the holiday. However, if the lower limit is close to or higher than the proportion of deaths in the week after the holiday, it indicates that there is no evidence of a significant decrease in deaths before the holiday.

Solve the problem. Susan purchased some municipal bonds yielding 7% annually and some certificates of deposit yielding 9% annually. If Susan's investment amounts to $19,000 and the annual income is $1590, how much money is invested in bonds and how much is invested in certificates of deposit? a. $13,500 in bonds; $5500 in certificates of deposit b. $5500 in bonds; $13,500 in certificates of deposit c. $13,000 in bonds; $6000 in certificates of deposit d. $6000 in bonds; $13,000 in certificates of deposit
...?

Answers

Final answer:

Susan invested $6,000 in municipal bonds and $13,000 in certificates of deposit. For the bond investment scenario, given the increase in market interest rate to 9%, you would pay less than $10,000 for the bond. The calculation shows you would be willing to pay approximately $9,724.77.

Explanation:

To solve Susan's investment problem, we can set up a system of equations using the information provided in the problem. Let x be the amount invested in municipal bonds and y be the amount invested in certificates of deposit (CDs). We can then set up the following equations:

x + y = $19,000 (Total investment amount)

0.07x + 0.09y = $1,590 (Total annual income from investments)

Now, we solve the system of equations. Multiplying the second equation by 100 to get rid of decimals:

7x + 9y = 159,000

Next, we can multiply the first equation by 7 to help us eliminate one variable:

7x + 7y = 133,000

Subtracting the modified first equation from the second equation:

9y - 7y = 159,000 - 133,000

2y = 26,000

y = $13,000

Using y = $13,000 in the first equation:

x + 13,000 = 19,000

x = $6,000

Therefore, Susan invested $6,000 in municipal bonds and $13,000 in certificates of deposit.

Regarding the bond investment scenario:

a. Since the market interest rate has risen to 9%, higher than the bond's 6% interest rate, you would expect to pay less than $10,000 for the bond.

b. To calculate the price you would be willing to pay, you need to find the present value of the expected payment from the bond one year from now:

The expected payment is $10,000 (the face value) plus $600 (the final interest payment), which totals $10,600.

Using the market interest rate of 9%, the present value (PV) formula is:

PV = Payment / (1 + market interest rate)

PV = $10,600 / (1 + 0.09)

PV = $10,600 / 1.09

PV ≈ $9,724.77

Therefore, you would be willing to pay approximately $9,724.77 for the bond.
