Last season Steven missed 24% of the free throws in his basketball games. In the two first games this season he got to shoot 25 free throws. If his missed free throw percentage holds from last season, about how many free throws did Steven miss during these two games?

Answers

Given:

Last season Steven missed 24% of the free throws in his basketball games.

Free throws in the first two games of this season = 25

His missed free throw percentage holds from last season.

To find:

The number of throws Steven miss during these two games.

Solution:

His missed free throw percentage for this season = His missed free throw percentage of last season = 24%

Free throws in the first two games of this season = 25

So, the number of throws Steven miss during these two games is

[tex]24\%\text{ of }25=\dfrac{24}{100}\times 25[/tex]

[tex]24\%\text{ of }25=\dfrac{24}{4}[/tex]

[tex]24\%\text{ of }25=6[/tex]

Therefore, Steven miss 6 free throws during these two games.

The town of Sickville, with a population of 2603 is exposed to the Blue Moon Virus, against which there is no immunity. The number of people infected when the virus is detected is 95. Suppose the number of infections grows logistically, with k=0.59

Answers

Using the logistic equation, it is found that the number of people infected after t days is given by:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{2603}{1 + 26.4e^{-0.59t}}[/tex]

What is the logistic equation?

It is given by:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{K}{1 + Ae^{-kt}}[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{K - P(0)}{P(0)}[/tex]

In which:

K is the carrying capacity.P(0) is the initial amount.k is the rate.

In this problem, the parameters are as follows: K = 2603, P(0) = 95, k = 0.59.

Hence:

[tex]A = \frac{K - P(0)}{P(0)} = \frac{2603 - 95}{95} = 26.4[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(t) = \frac{K}{1 + Ae^{-kt}}[/tex]

[tex]P(t) = \frac{2603}{1 + 26.4e^{-0.59t}}[/tex]

Write an explicit formula for a_na n ​ , the n^{\text{th}}n th term of the sequence 6, 12, 18, '

Answers

Here , we need to find a formula for nth term of the sequence 6 , 12 , 18 , .....

Now , here if you notice carefully ,then you can notice that 12 - 6 = 6 and 18 - 12 = 6 , So the given sequence is an AP ( Arithmetic Progression ) with common difference being 6 , first term being 6 , so now as we know that :

[tex]{\boxed{\bf{a_{n}=a+(n-1)d}}}[/tex]

Where , [tex]\bf a_n[/tex] is nth term of AP , [tex]\bf a[/tex] being first term while [tex]\bf d[/tex] is the common difference . So , now putting the values in above formula ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf a_{n}=6+(n-1)6}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf a_{n}=6+6n-6}[/tex]

Cancelling 6 will yield :

[tex]{:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{a_{n}=6n}}}[/tex]

Henceforth , nth term of the sequence is 6n

Find the Area of the figure below, composed of a rectangle and a semicircle. The radius of the circle is shown. Round to the nearest tenths place.

Answers

By dividing the figure in a rectangle and a circle, we will see that the area of the composited figure is equal to 149.25 square units.

How to find the area of the image?

The area will be the area of the rectangle plus the area of the semicircle.

We can see that the width of the rectangle is equal to the diameter of the semicircle, and the radius of the semicircle is 5 units, so its diameter is:

2*5 = 10 units.

Then the rectangle measures 11 units by 10 units, then its area is:

A = 10*11 = 110 square units.

In another hand, for a semicircle of radius R the area is:

A = 0.5*3.14*R^2

In this case we have R = 5, replacing that we get:

A = 0.5*3.14*5^2 = 39.25 square units.

Adding these two we get:

Area = 110 square units + 39.25 square units = 149.25 square units.

There are 300 kids who go to school 5/8 are intermediate 1/3 are junior the rest are primary

(from my call to teach grade 7 math fractions,decimals,percentages

Answers

Answer:

188 kids in intermediate, 100 juniors, and 13 children that attend primary school.

Step-by-step explanation:

K there are 300 kids.

5/8 are intermediate, so 5/8 * 300 = 187.5, you can't have half a kid, so we can round to 188 kids are intermediates.

1/3 are juniors, so 1/3 * 300 = 100 are juniors.

The rest are primary:

(1)-(5/8 + 1/3)= 1/24

Thus, 1/24 are primary students, so 1/24 * 300 = 12.5 and again we will round up to 13 children in primary classes.

Step 1 of 2: Using the standard form ax2+bx+c=0 of the given quadratic equation, factor the left hand side of the equation into two linear factors.

Answers

Answer:

(x-6)(x-4) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 5 from both sides to make the equation equal to 0. You will get the equation x2-10x+24=0. Now think of two numbers that multiply to get 24 but add to get -10. These numbers are -6 and -4. The factors of x2 are x and x which multiply to get x2.  Now put two linear factors into parathesis to get (x-6)(x-4) = 0.
