A car travels along a straight road for 30 seconds starting at time t = 0. Its acceleration in ft/sec2 is given by the linear gr

aph below for the time interval [0, 30]. At t = 0, the velocity of the car is 0 and its position is 10. What is the total distance the car travels in this 30 second interval? Your must show your work but you may use your calculator to evaluate. Give 3 decimal places in your answer and include units.
I think I need to find the velocity equation then take the absolute value of the integral from 0 to 30, but I'm not sure how to find the velocity equation.

From an acceleration-time graph, you can work out the area under the graph to find the velocity. There are two triangles on the graph as shown below. The total area of the triangles are

\frac{(10)(10)}{2}+ \frac{(20)(20)}{2}=250 ft/sec^{2}

Hence, the distance is 250×30=7500 ft

A firm’s marketing manager believes that total sales for next year will follow the normal distribution, with a mean of $3.2 mill
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The sales level that has only a 3% chance of being exceeded next year is $3.67 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

In millions of dollars,

\mu = 3.2, \sigma = 0.25

Determine the sales level that has only a 3% chance of being exceeded next year.

This is the 100 - 3 = 97th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.97. So X when Z = 1.88.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.88 = \frac{X - 3.2}{0.25}

X - 3.2 = 0.25*1.88

X = 3.67

The sales level that has only a 3% chance of being exceeded next year is $3.67 million.

What number goes in the box in the followng sequence 5 11 23 ? 95 191​
Alina [70]

Answer:

47

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that should go after 23 is 47.

The pattern seems to be (n * 2) + 1, where n is the value of the previous number.

We start with the number 5:

5

(5 * 2) + 1  = 11

11

(11 * 2) + 1 = 23

23

(23 * 2) + 1 = 47

47

... and so on

The pattern should continue as follows.

Hope this helps!

How do you solve the equation 2cos^2 - cosx = 0 for all solutions?
exis [7]

Answer:

<em>π/2 and π/3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 2cos²x - cosx = 0, to find the solution to the equation, we will follow the following step.

let P = cosx

The equation becomes 2P²-P = 0

P(2P-1) = 0

P = 0 and 2P-1 = 0

P= 0 and P = 1/2

Since P = cosx

cosx = 0 and cos(x) =  1/2

If cos(x) = 0

x = cos⁻¹0

x = 90⁰

x = π/2

If cos(x) = 1/2

x = cos⁻¹1/2

x = 60⁰

x = π/3

<em>Hence the solutions to the equation are π/2 and π/3.</em>
