Mathematics

Viefleur [7K]2 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

A flagpole is 53 feet tall. Most of the time, this will be a vertical side of the triangle.

The flagpole and the ground are perpendicular to each other so they should form the legs of the triangles, this the triangle will be a right angle.

The rope will be the hypotenuse, the side opposite of the right angle.

If f(x) is an exponential function where f(4) =17 and f (12.5) = 31, then find the value of f(18.5), to the nearest hundredth.
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Solution: f(18.5)=31.47

Step by step solution:
I started by making an equation in slope intercept form- I found the slope, 28/17, with the points (4, 17) and (12.5, 31). Then I found the y intercept, 1, with the point (4, 17). So the equation is y=28/17x+1. Then I just plugged 18.5 where the x is and solved for y

28/17(18.5)+1=y
28/17(37/2)+1=y
1036/34+1= y
30.47+1=y
y=31.47

Keep in mind that 1036/34 is not exactly 30.47 but that 30.47 was rounded to the nearest hundredth

Hope this helps :)

INT1 4.1.1 Line of Best Fit (classwork)
Lorico [155]

Answer:

a. 2401.06

b. 37.54%

c. 56.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

hopefully this is right

*note: I think you forgot to convert 4-2 back into yards.

a. Robbie's field of view to the North end includes parts not on the football field. so to find the area of the football field he can see, we need to find:

total area of what Robbie sees - area of non football field Robbie sees

what you shaded represents the total of what Robbie sees. it's a triangle. area of a triangle is 1/2(b)(h) where h is distance away and b is width of view.

total area = 1/2(170)(30.92) = 2628.56 yd

area of non football field (pipe to South end)

= 1/2(50)(9.1) = 227.5

so 2628.56 - 227.5 = 2401.06

b. area found in part a / total area of football field

2401.06 / (120*53.3) = .3754

.3754 * 100 = 37.54%

c. the chance of Robbie seeing the touchdown depends on how much of the (North) endzone he can see.

area of north endzone is

10 * 53.3 = 533.

area Robbie sees in endzone is

2628.56 - 2328.48 = 300.08

(found by total area Robbie sees - area of non endzone Robbie sees)

300.08 / 533 = 0.563

= 56.3%

Can u tell me which one is the median in here??
ki77a [65]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the median, you select the middle number. So first, we must put the numbers in order

-23, -20, -16, -<u>1,</u> -1, 10, 10

The middle number is -1. (there are 3 numbers either side)

The distance from the school to the library is 12 miles. The distance from the school to the park is 75% of this distance.
strojnjashka [21]
75% of 12 can be represented with the equation 75/100=x/12

Then to solve
75(12)= 100x
900 = 100x
9=x

So the distance from the school to the park is 9 miles.
