A basketball shot is taken from a horizontal distance of 5m from the hoop. The height of the ball can be modelled by the relatio

n h= -7.3t^2 + 8.25t +2.1, where h is the height in meters, and t is the time in seconds, since the ball was released

This is the concept of application of quadratic expressions. Given that the height of the ball is modeled by the equation;
h=-7.3t^2+8.25t+2.1+5
The time taken for the ball to hit the ground will be given as falls;
-7.3t^2+8.25t+7.1=0
to solve for t we use the quadratic formula;
t=[-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/(2a)
a=-7.3, b=8.25, c=2.1
t=[-8.25+/-sqrt[8.25^2+4*7.3*7.1]/(-2*7.3)
t= -0.572
or
t=1.702
since there is not negative time we take the time taken for the ball to hit the ground will be: t=1.702 sec

Can someone help me with this ​
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

  b, e

Step-by-step explanation:

a, b) ordinarily, we claim the variable on the vertical axis is a function of the variable on the horizontal axis. By that claim, <em>temperature is a function of time</em>.

If the graph passed the horizontal line test (a horizontal line intersects in one place), then we could also say time is a function of temperature. The graph does not pass that test, so we cannot make that claim.

c) The graph has negative slope between 4:00 and 5:00. Temperature is decreasing in that interval, not increasing.

d) The graph has two intervals in which it is horizontal: 5:00-9:00 and 11:00-12:00. In those intervals it is neither increasing nor decreasing.

e) The graph shows a minimum in the interval 11:00-12:00. <em>The lowest temperature first occurs at 11:00</em>.

What is the answer for the problem?
TEA [102]

Answer:

A: I assume that the equation 4x+2 has a greater rate of change.

B: The function F has a greater y intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trend in the table is multiply the x by 3 then add 6.

Your equation would be y = 3x+6 for the table.

Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set. Round to the nearest tenth. 15, 13, 9, 9, 7, 1, 11, 10, 13, 1, 13 mean = 8.5, m
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Mean = 9.3

Median = 10

Mode = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the mean, you would have to add up all of the numbers (102), then divide how many numbers you have with the numbers added up (9.3). To get the median, you would have to put all of the numbers that you have, in order, from least to greatest and cross off each number, one from each side before getting to the number in the middle (unless if you have an even number; works better with odd numbers, which is easier). To get the mode, you would need to find out which number appears the most, and, if there is more than one, you can put the numbers down. Hope this helps.
