Answer:
There are 650 cannonballs
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look closely in the picture, you can see that:
- 1st row has 1 ball
- 2nd row has 4 balls
- 3rd row has 9 balls
- 4th row has 16 balls
etc. etc.
We can see that the number of balls is the square of the row number. There are a total of 12 rows. So, rest of the rows has:
- 5th row has 25 balls
- 6th row has 36 balls
- 7th row has 49 balls
- 8th row has 64 balls
- 9th row has 81 balls
- 10th row has 100 balls
- 11th row has 121 balls
- 12th row has 144 balls
If we add up all those, we get total number of balls:
There are 650 cannonballs
Answer:
x = ±6
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2/4=9
Multiply by 4 on each side
x^2/4 *4=9*4
x^2 = 36
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(36)
x = ±6
Answer: 11) 1/3
12)1/4
13) Likely
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Other than using the plain special aspect of a 45-45-90 triangle where the legs are x, x, and x√2, you can solve for this.
Since the two legs have equal length, they are both x. Using the pythagorean theorem:
(x^2)+(x^2)=50 (Because 5 squared is 25 and √2 squared is 2, multiplying them gives you 50).
You can add (x^2) and (x^2) because they are the same terms (x squared).
Simplifying like so gives you:
2x^2=50
Dividing by two on both sides:
x^2=25
Taking the square root of both sides:
x=5
Assume the parabola is placed on a graph where the x-axis is the top of the dish.
The vertex is then at (0,-30) The x-intercepts or zeros are at (-30,0) and (30,0)
The equation of such parabola would be:
Plug in vertex to find value of 'a'
Now find the focus given that
Answer: the microphone should be placed 7.5 inches from vertex.
