An umbrella sprinkler is positioned on a ceiling at a point whose x- coordinate is 0. Negative values of a indicate distances, in meters, to the left of the position of the sprinkler, and positive values indicate distances to the right. The path of water from the sprinkler can be modeled by the quadratic function

w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 ) where w(x) is the height of the water, in meters, at position x.

Required:
Which equivalent expressions displays the height of the ceiling as a constant or coefficient?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1/4x² + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Path of sprinkler is modeled by the quadratic function :

w(x) = -1/4(x^2 -12 )

w(x) = height of the water, in meters, at position x

The height of ceiling as a constant or Coefficient = w(x)

Expanding w(x)

-1/4(x^2 -12 )

-1/4 * x² + 1/4 * 12

-1/4x² + 3

The height of ceiling is -1/4x² + 3

Q3a) How many lengths of string, each 53 cm
long can be cut from a ball containing 25
meters? (2 mks)

b) What length of string, in millimeters
remains? (2 mks)

Answers

Part (a)

1 meter = 100 cm

25 meters = 2500 cm .... multiply both sides by 25

Divide the 2500 cm over the 53 cm to get 2500/53 = 47.1698

Ignore the stuff after the decimal point. This means we can cut exactly 47 smaller bits of string, each 53 cm long

Answer: 47

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

Part (b)

We found that we can cut exactly 47 smaller bits of string, each 53 cm long. That takes up 47*53 = 2491 cm overall

The leftovers would be 2500 - 2491 = 9 cm which isn't longer than 53 cm

Convert 9 cm to mm by multiplying by 10 (because 1 cm = 10 mm).

9 cm = 90 mm

Answer: 90 mm

The sequence is defined recursively. Write the first four terms.

a 1 = -10; a n = n - a n - 1

Answers

Answer:

-10, 12, -9 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the recursive sequence

a1 = -10

an = n - an-1

a2  = 2 - a1

a2 = 2  - (-10)

a2 = 2+10

a2 = 12

a3 = 3 - a2

a3 = 3  - (12)

a3 = -9

a4  = 4 - a3

a4 = 4  - (-9)

a4 = 4+9

a4 = 13

Hence the first 4 terms are -10, 12, -9 and 13

B. 73%
C. 88%
D. 91%

Answers

Answer:

D. 91%

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Less than 15 minutes.

Event B: Less than 10 minutes.

We are given the following probability distribution:

[tex]f(T = t) = \frac{3}{5}(\frac{5}{t})^4, t \geq 5[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]f(T = t) = \frac{3*5^4}{5t^4} = \frac{375}{t^4}[/tex]

Probability of arriving in less than 15 minutes:

Integral of the distribution from 5 to 15. So

[tex]P(A) = \int_{5}^{15} = \frac{375}{t^4}[/tex]

Integral of [tex]\frac{1}{t^4} = t^{-4}[/tex] is [tex]\frac{t^{-3}}{-3} = -\frac{1}{3t^3}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\int \frac{375}{t^4} dt = -\frac{125}{t^3}[/tex]

Applying the limits, by the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus:

At [tex]t = 15[/tex], [tex]f(15) = -\frac{125}{15^3} = -\frac{1}{27}[/tex]

At [tex]t = 5[/tex], [tex]f(5) = -\frac{125}{5^3} = -1[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(A) = -\frac{1}{27} + 1 = -\frac{1}{27} + \frac{27}{27} = \frac{26}{27}[/tex]

Probability of arriving in less than 15 minutes and less than 10 minutes.

The intersection of these events is less than 10 minutes, so:

[tex]P(B) = \int_{5}^{10} = \frac{375}{t^4}[/tex]

We already have the integral, so just apply the limits:

At [tex]t = 10[/tex], [tex]f(10) = -\frac{125}{10^3} = -\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

At [tex]t = 5[/tex], [tex]f(5) = -\frac{125}{5^3} = -1[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(A \cap B) = -\frac{1}{8} + 1 = -\frac{1}{8} + \frac{8}{8} = \frac{7}{8}[/tex]

If given the train arrived in less than 15 minutes, what is the probability it arrived in less than 10 minutes?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{\frac{7}{8}}{\frac{26}{27}} = 0.9087[/tex]

Thus 90.87%, approximately 91%, and the correct answer is given by option D.

Mark Brainliest please

Answer :

The probability of selecting a red car off the lot is 0.231.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of white cars = 25
Number of blue cars = 15
Number of red cars = 21
Number of black cars = 30
We need to find the probability of selecting a red car off the lot.
Solution:
First we will find the Total number of cars in the lot.
Now we can say that;
Total number of cars in the lot is equal to sum of Number of white cars and Number of blue cars and Number of red cars and Number of black cars.
framing in equation form we get;
Total number of cars in the lot =
Now to find the probability of selecting a red car off the lot we will divide Number of red cars by Total number of cars in the lot.
framing in equation form we get;
P(red) =
Rounding to three decimals we get;
P(red) = 0.231
Hence The probability of selecting a red car off the lot is 0.231.

Answer:

g(-1 )=-1 and g(2)+g(1)=7

Step-by-step explanation:

If g(x) = x^3+x^2-x-2 find g(-1)

if we find g(-1)

we substitute all the x's in the function with -1

-1^3+-1^2-(-1)-2

-1^3 = -1

-1^2 = 1

-1+1+1-2

(two minuses make a plus)

-1+1 = 0

0+1 = 1

1-2 = -1

if x=-1, g(-1) is -1

g(2)+g(1)

substitute the x's in the function with 2 and 1 and add your results

2^3+2^2-2-2

2^3 = 8, 2^2 = 4

8+4-2-2

8+4= 12, 12-2 = 10, 10-2 = 8

g(2)=8

g(1) now

1^3 + 1^2-1-2

1^3=1, 1^2 = 1

1+1-1-2

1+1 = 2, 2-1 = 1, 1-2 = -1

g(3) = -1

g(2) (which equals 8) + g(3) (which equals -1) =

8+(-1) = 7

g(2)+g(3)=7

They are the coordinates of the diameter.

Using this we can find the centre of the circle.

Find the centre of the circle.

Centre of the circle is the mid- point of (6, 0) and ( 6, -6)

      [tex]Centre = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})[/tex]

Find the radius of the circle.

[tex]Radius = \frac{Diameter }{2}[/tex]

Diameter is the distance between the points (6 , 0) and ( 6, - 6)

[tex]Diameter = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2+ (y_2 - y_1)^2\\}[/tex]

               [tex]=\sqrt{(6-6)^2 + (-6 -0)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{0 + 36} \\\\= 6[/tex]

Answer:

X = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle BEC = 43 degrees

You find X by setting up the equation 137 = 3x+41

Solve for x

You find angle BEC by subtracting 137 from 180, finding the acute angle that brings the obtuse angle up to 180 degrees (a flat line)

Answer:

x = 32 degree and angle BEC = 43 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 41 = 137 degree (being vertically opposite angles)

3x = 137 - 41

x = 96/3

x = 32

angle BEC be y

137 + y =180 degree (being linear pair)

y = 180 - 137

y = 43 degree

therefore angle BEC = 43 degree

Answers

Answer: Choice D

9, 30, 93, 282, 849

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

Explanation:

The notation [tex]a_1 = 9[/tex] tells us that the first term is 9

The notation [tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3[/tex] says that we multiply the (n-1)st term by 3, then add on 3 to get the nth term [tex]a_n[/tex]

So if we wanted the second term for instance, then we'd say

[tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(a_{2-1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(a_{1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(9)+3\\\\a_2 = 27+3\\\\a_2 = 30\\\\[/tex]

If we want the third term, then,

[tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(a_{3-1})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(a_{2})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(30)+3\\\\a_3 = 90+3\\\\a_3 = 93\\\\[/tex]

and so on.

The terms so far are: 9, 30, 93

You should find the fourth and fifth terms are 282 and 849 respectively if you keep this pattern going.

Therefore, the answer is choice D

Solve the equation ln(x - 3) + ln(x + 1) = ln(x + 7)

x = 5, or x = ???

Answers

Answer:

x = 5 or x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of logarithms

log x + log y = log (xy)

log x = log y ⇒ x = y

Given

ln(x- 3) + ln(x + 1) = ln(x + 7) , then

ln (x - 3)(x + 1) = ln (x + 7) , so

(x - 3)(x + 1) = x + 7 ← expand left side using FOIL

x² - 2x - 3 = x + 7 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )

x² - 3x - 10 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
