Suppose the spinner lands on <em>a</em>. There's a 1/3 chance that it'll land on <em>a</em> the second time.
Suppose the spinner lands on <em>b</em>. There's a 1/3 chance that it'll land on <em>b</em> the second time.
Suppose the spinner lands on <em>c</em>. There's a 1/3 chance that it'll land on <em>c</em> the second time.
We've covered all possibilities for the first spin, and they're all equal, so their average is 1/3.
The probability that it'll land on the same letter twice is 33.3%.
Ok
y=-0.04x^2+8.3x+4.3
when the rocket reaches the ground (when height=0, ie when y=0), then the rocket will land, find the x coordinate
set y=0
0=-0.04x^2+8.3x+4.3
use quadratic formula
if you have ax^2+bx+c=0, then
x=

a=-0.04
b=8.3
c=4.3
x=

x=208.017 or -0.516785
xrepresents horizontal distance
you cannot have a negative horizontal distance unless you fired and theh wind blew it backwards
therefor x=280.017 is the answer
208.02 m
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Initial Amount=1
Decay Factor=0.99987
Decay Rate=0.013%
Step-by-step explanation:
If P = 0.99987ᵃ
I. Initial amount
The initial amount is when a=0
P = 0.99987⁰ = 1
The Pressure at Sea Level=1
II. Decay factor
This is like the decay constant. From the model, P = 0.99987ᵃ, the decay constant/factor is 0.99987.
III. Decay Rate = 1-0.99987 = 0.00013
Expressed in Percentage = 0.013%
