  1. A function that models the data is given by this quadratic equation, y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572.
  2. The number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak is equal to 11 students.

<h3>What is a scatter plot?</h3>

A scatter plot can be defined as a type of graph which is used for the graphical representation of the values of two (2) variables, with the resulting points showing any association (correlation) between the data set.

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function can be defined as a mathematical expression (equation) that can be used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph.

In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c = 0

By critically observing the graph (see attachment) which models the data in the given table, we can infer and logically deduce that the quadratic function is given by:

y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572

For the number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak, we have:

y = -0.4908(10)² + 5.8845(10) + 1.3572

y = -0.4908(100) + 58.845 + 1.3572

y = -49.08 + 58.845 + 1.3572

Number of students, y = 11.12 ≈ 11 students.

The angle looking up at the sun is 70°. A flagpole casts a shadow of 15 ft. Draw a diagram and find the height of the flagpole
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The length of the flagpole be 41.2 ft .

Option (A) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The angle looking up at the sun is 70°.

A flagpole casts a shadow of 15 ft .

Now by using the trignometric identity .

tan \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

\ theta = 70^{\circ}

tan\ 70^{\circ} = \frac{AB}{BC}

BC = 15 ft

tan 70° = 2.75 (Approx)

2.75 = \frac{AB}{15}

AB = 2.75 × 15

     = 41.2 ft

Therefore the length of the flagpole be 41.2 ft .

Option (A) is correct .

For each triangle, find the missing side length to the nearest tenth. :
Lana71 [14]
We can use trigonometry.  The cosine of 15 will be the side adjacent to the 15-degree side (the one we are looking for) divided by 20, the hypotenuse.  As cos(15) is about .966, we get 19.32 as the side we are looking for.
