You are asked to find the team score, so it is convenient to let a variable represent that value. Let's call it "s", for "score". The problem statement tells you
.. Michaela scored s/5 . . . . . one fifth of the team's points
.. Aleah scored s/10 . . . . . . . one tenth o the team's points
These scores together are (s/5 +s/10) and that amount is 42 points.
.. s/5 +s/10 = 42
.. s(2/10 +1/10) = 42 . . . . . factor out s
.. s(3/10) = 42 . . . . . . . . . . form the sum of the numbers in parentheses
.. s = 42*10/3 = 140 . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of s

The team scored 140 points.

______
Michaela scored 140/5 = 28 points; Aleah scored 140/10 = 14 points.

Determine whether the data set is a population or a sample. Explain your reasoning. The salary of each teacher in a school. Choo
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

D. ​Population, because it is a collection of salaries for all teachers in the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

In research, population refers to a complete set of subjects that share a characteristic and that the researcher is interested in. On the other hand, a sample is a subset of a population and it's usually the one the researcher takes to make a study with.

In this example, we have "The salary of each teacher in a school" since we are taking ALL the teachers of this school, this would be a population. If we were working with the salary of only a portion of the teachers of said school, it would be a sample.

Thus, the right answer is  D. ​Population, because it is a collection of salaries for all teachers in the school.

A brick is thrown upward from the top of a building at an angle of 250 above the horizontal, and with an initial speed of 15 m/s
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

(a) 25.08 m

(b) 2.05 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the building be 'h'.

Given:

Angle of projection is, \theta=25°

Initial speed is, u=15\ m/s

Time of flight is, t=3.0\ s

(a)

Consider the vertical motion of the brick.

Vertical component of initial velocity is given as:

u_y=u\sin\theta\\\\u_y=15\sin(25)=6.34\ m/s

Vertical displacement of the brick is equal to the height of the building.

So, vertical displacement = -h (Negative sign implies downward motion)

Acceleration is due to gravity in the downward direction. So,

Acceleration is, g=-9.8\ m/s^2

Now, using the following equation of motion;

-h=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\-h=6.34(3)-\frac{9.8}{2}(3)^2\\\\-h=19.02-44.1\\\\-h=-25.08\\\\h=25.08\ m

Therefore, the building is 25.08 m tall.

(b)

Let the maximum height be 'H'.

At maximum height, the vertical component of velocity is 0 as the brick stops temporarily in the vertical direction.

So, v_y=0\ m/s

Now, using the following equation of motion, we have:

v_y^2=u_y^2+2gH\\\\0=(6.34)^2-2\times 9.8\times H\\\\19.6H=40.2\\\\H=\frac{40.2}{19.6}=2.05\ m

Therefore, the maximum height of the brick is 2.05 m.
