Malcom and his sister ran 3 races. Their distances are shown below.
Race Malcom's / Sister Distance
1. 10 yards 300 inches
2. 18 feet 180 inches
3. 120 inches 5 feet

Who can run the farthest? How do you know? Use the lines and space below to
prove your answer.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:    Malcom can run the furthest.

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

Explanation:

Race 1

Let's convert Malcom's distance to inches so we can compare his distance to his sister's.

1 yard = 3 feet

10 yards = 30 feet (multiply both sides by 10)

1 foot = 12 inches

30 feet = 360 inches (multiply both sides by 30)

In Malcom's first race, he ran 360 inches. He has run the furthest compared to his sister who ran 300 inches.

------------------------

Race 2

Convert Malcom's distance from feet to inches.

1 foot = 12 inches

18 feet = 216 inches (multiply both sides by 18)

Malcom runs 216 inches compared to his sister's distance of 180 inches. Malcom is the winner again.

------------------------

Race 3

120 inches = 120/12 = 10 feet

Divide by 12 to convert from inches to feet, or you could have these steps

12 inches = 1 ft

120 inches = 10 feet

after multiplying both sides by 10.

Malcom runs 10 feet compared to 5 feet which his sister runs.

In each race, Malcom has ran the furthest.

Answers

Answer:

0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

a 1 in the thousandths place is dropped in standard rounding to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

In 0.081, 0 is the tenth, 8 is the hundredth, and 1 is the thousandth. So as you want to approximate to the nearest hundredth, you have to look at the number behind 8 which is 1. And, 1 is less than 5, so you don't have to round up.

Who invent natural numbers???​

Answers

Answer:

  nobody

Step-by-step explanation:

Humans have made use of natural numbers as long as humans have been around. Counting numbers are wired into our consciousness, as they are for many living things.

Research has demonstrated some plants can count up to 5 (generally, carnivorous ones). Honeybees have long been known to be able to count to 4, and recent research shows they can count higher. Fish can count; birds can count; as can many other species.

For most, it takes concentration and/or training to count beyond 4. We are born with an understanding of 1, 2, 3, more.

Nobody "invented" natural numbers.

_____

Additional comment

Prey species survive by being able to count predators. Some predators take advantage of the limitations of number recognition by hunting in groups larger than can be readily counted.

A projectile is thrown upward so that its distance above the ground after t seconds is h = -156 + 510t. What is its maximum height?​

Answers

For the parabola:

h(t) = -at2 + bt, the maximum occurs at -b/2a

For h(t) = -16t2 + 576t that is -576/(-2)(-16), or -576/32, or 18.

The projectile is at its highest point at 18 seconds.

It is estimated that world reserves of oil currently stand at 2625
billion units. Oil is currently extracted at an annual rate of 45.5
billion units and this is set to increase by 2.6% a year. After how
many years will oil reserves run out

Answers

Answer:

  35.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The annual consumption (in billions of units) is described by the exponential function ...

  f(t) = 45.5·1.026^t

The accumulated consumption is described by the integral ...

  [tex]\displaystyle\int_0^t{f(x)}\,dx=45.5\int_0^t{1.026^x}\,dx=45.5\left(\dfrac{1.026^t-1}{\ln{1.026}}\right)[/tex]

We want to find t such that the value of this integral is 2625, the estimated oil reserves.

  2625 = 45.5/ln(1.026)·(1.026^t -1)

  2625·ln(1.026)/45.5 +1 = 1.026^t ≈ 1.480832 +1 = 1.026^t

Taking natural logs, we have ...

  ln(2.480832) = t·ln(1.026)

  t ≈ ln(2.480832)/ln(1.026) ≈ 35.398

After about 35.4 years, the oil reserves will run out.

Has a slope of -2/5 and goes through (-10,-1)​

Answers

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the point-slope form of a straight line equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-1)) = -2/5(x - -10)

y + 1 = -2/5(x + 10)

y  + 1 = -2/5x - 4

y = -2/5x - 5.

In standard form this is:

2x + 5y = -25.

x - y = -4
-5 + 6y = 22

The answer is (-2,2) but i just need to show the work for it so please help with that.

Answers

Answer:

(-2, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

  x - y = -4

-5x + 6y = 22    Multiply the first equation by 5:

5x - 5y = -20    Now  Add the last 2 equations:

y = 2.

Substitute y = 2 in the first equation:

x - 2 = -4

x = -4 + 2

x = -2.

Answer:

x=1/2, y=9/2. (1/2, 9/2).

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y=-4

-5+6y=22

--------------

y=x-(-4)

y=x+4

-5+6(x+4)=22

-5+6x+24=22

6x+24-5=22

6x+19=22

6x=22-19

My answer is 8, but I'm not completely sure, if I'm wrong could someone please explain how to find the length.

Answers

By knowing that S is bisected by the line shown, we will conclude that PD = 8

So here we know that PC = 8, we also can see that:

PCS is a right trianglePDS is a right triangle.

Notice that because the blue line bisects S, the angle at "S" on both of these right triangles is the same, and because both of these are right triangles, both must have a 90° angle.

Finally, if two angles are equal, then the 3 angles must be equal between these two triangles.

And notice that both of these triangles share one side, then:

Triangles we know for sure that triangles PCS and PDS have the same angles and one equal side.

This implies that the triangles are congruent, thus, the measures of the corresponding sides must be the same.

Then the length of the shorter side of both triangles must be the same, in triangle PCS the short leg measures 8 units, then in triangle PDS the short leg, PD, also must measure 8 units.

So you are correct.
