Which of the following would illustrate a quadratic relation between the dependent and independent variables when graphed?

Kitty [74]

Answer: option A. a graph of the area of a circle vs. its radius r (A = πr²).

Explanation:

A quadratic relation between the dependent and independent variables shows the independent variable raised to the power of 2.

This is it is a polynomial with general form ax² + bx + c, whewre a, b, and c, named coeficients, are constants.

The function is y = ax² + bx + c, where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.

As stated in the question, the area of a circle is given by A = πr².

In this case, A is the dependent variable and r is the independent variable.

π is assumed as the coefficient of the quadratic term, and the other coefficients are assumed 0, since there are no either terms on r or constants.

The equation a = 1/b is an inverse relation, not a quadratic relation.

The relation of distance vs. time for a car moving at constant speed is a linear relation of the kind v = u + st.

The mass of water vs. the volume of water in a drinking glass is a direct relation, mass = density × volume

Therefore, the only quadratic relation is shown by a graph of the area of a circle vs. its radius r.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The datapoint 9.0 ppm is outlier at the 90% confidence level.

Explanation:

The old data has following values

mean=10.5 mm

standard deviation 0.2 mm

Now the mean of new values is calculated as following

$mean=\frac{10+10.4+10.2+10.8+10.1+10.5+10.1}{7}\\mean=10.3 ppm$

So the value as 9.0 ppm can be considered easily as outlier in this regard.

What is the mass of a bird if it has a potential energy of 147J when flying at a height of 30 m above the ground?

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

0.5kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential energy = 147J

Height = 30m

Unknown:

Mass of the bird = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. Now, the expression for finding the potential energy is given as;

P.E = mgH

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

H is the height

147 = m x 9.8 x 30

m = 0.5kg

A horizontal circular curve on a highway is designed for traffic moving at 60 km/h. If the radius of the curve is 150 m, and if

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The value of the correct angle of banking for the road is $\theta = 67.76$ °

Explanation:

Given data

Velocity (v) = 60 $\frac{m}{s}$

Radius = 150 m

The velocity of the car in this case is given by

$v = \sqrt{r g \tan \theta}$

$v^{2} = r g \tan \theta$

$\tan \theta = \frac{v^{2} }{rg}$

Put all the values in above formula we get

$\tan \theta = \frac{60^{2} }{(150)(9.81)}$

$\tan \theta =$ 2.446

$\theta = 67.76$ °

Therefore the value of the correct angle of banking for the road is $\theta = 67.76$ °
