Answer:

20 disparos

Step-by-step explanation:

Primera etapa es de determinar cuantos tiros de Camilo acertaron al blanco.

Sabemos que en su última práctica, obtuvo 99 puntos con una mezcla de 5, 8 y 10 puntos.  Eso puedo se exprimir así:

5x + 8y + 10x = 99

Sabemos también que el obtuvo tantos tiros de 8 puntos que de 10 puntos, entonces

y = z

Podemos mezclar las 2 ecuaciones y substituir y por z:

5x + 8y + 10y = 99

5x +18y = 99

Una ecuación, dos variables... no es fácil... pero son números pequeños y se puede intentar soluciones.  Entonces, cuantas veces podemos multiplicar 5 y 18 para obtener 99?

El más simple es de hacer la tabla de multiplicación de 18 y ver cual número nos deja con un multiple de 5.

18 x 1 = 18 (99 - 18 = 81, no un multiple e 5)

18 x 2 = 36 (99 - 36 = 63, no un multiple de 5)

18 x 3 = 54 (99 - 54 = 45, SI, un multiple de 5)

18 x 4 = 72 (99 - 72 = 27, no un multiple de 5)

18 x 5 = 90 (99 - 90 = 9, no un multiple de 5)

Entonces, sabemos que y = 3 y z = 3

5x + 18 (3) = 99

5x + 54 = 99

5x = 45

x = 9

El tiró 9 veces por 5 puntos, 3 veces por 8 puntos y 3 veces pour 10 puntos.

En total tiró 15 veces.

Si acertó 75% (3/4) de las veces, cuantos tiros total?

\frac{15}{3/4} = \frac{15 * 4}{3} = 20

Camilo tiró 20 veces en total.

Please see the figure. We'll first work out half the area of the rounded triangle, half the unshaded part, then double it, then subtract it from the big square.

Half the area is the circular sector PTQ (with center P, arc TQ) minus the right triangle PUT.

A/2 = area(sector PTQ) - area(triangle PUT)

The triangle is half of equilateral triangle PQT, so a 30/60/90 right triangle so we know the sides are in ratio 1:√3:2 so

TU = (7/2)√3

area(PUT) = (1/2) (7/2)(7/2)√3 = (49/8)√3

area(sector PTQ) = (angle TQP / 360°) πr^2

We know angle TQP is 60° because TQP is equilateral.  r=7.

area(sector PTQ) = (60°/360°) π (7²) = 49π/6

Putting it together,

A/2 = area(sector PTQ) - area(triangle PUT)

A = 2(49π/6 -  (49/8)√3)

A = 49(π/3 - √3/4) square cm

I hate ruining a nice exact answer with an approximation, but they seem to be asking.

A ≈ 30.095057615914535

Check:

I'm not sure how to check it.  I'd estimate it's about 25% bigger than equilateral triangle PQT with area (√3/4)7² ≈ 21.2, so around 27. 30 seems reasonable.

Now the real area we seek is the big square PQRS minus A, so

area = 7² - 30.095057615914535 = 18.904942384086 sq cm

They want square meters for some reason; we scale by (1/100)²

Answer: 0.00189 square meters

The price p, in dollars, of a specific ca that is x year old is modeled by the function p(x)=22,255(0.91)^x
uysha [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The price p, in dollars, of a specific car that is x year old is modeled by the function p(x)=22,255(0.91)^x

a) to determine the cost of a 2 year old car, we will substitute 2 for x in the given function. Therefore

p(2)=22,255(0.91)^2

p(2)=22,255 × 0.8281 = $18673.655

Approximately $18674

b) to determine the cost of a 7 year old car, we will substitute 7 for x in the given function. Therefore

p(7)=22,255(0.91)^7

p(2)=22,255 × 0.51676101936 = 11500.51648579693

Approximately $11501

c) 0.91 indicates exponential decay rate. It is a fixed percentage by which the value of the car decreases every year. It is determined by (1 - rate of decay)

The formula equals 16t squared is used to approximate the distance​ s, in​ feet, that an object falls freely from rest in t seco
Brut [27]
The equation is actually h(t)=-16t^2+1437.  Free fall is always -16t^2 as the position function.  We are looking for how long it takes the object to hit the ground.  In other words, the height of an object is 0 when it is laying on the ground, so how long (t) did it take to get there? We will then set that position equal to 0 and solve for t.  0=-16t^2+1437.  If we subtract 1437 from both sides and divide by -16, we have t^2=89.8125.  Taking the square root of both sides gives us, rounded to the nearest tenth, t = 9.5 or t=-9.5.  The 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, so -9.5 is out.  That means that it took just about 9.5 seconds for the object to fall to the ground from a height of 1437 feet when pulled on by the force of gravity.
