<h3>Answer: C) 26 complete rotations</h3>

===========================================

Explanation:

The diameter of the ball is 8.5 inches. So d = 8.5

The circumference of the circle with this diameter is

C = pi*d

C = pi*8.5

C = 8.5pi

C = 26.7035375555132 approximately.

This is the rough distance it travels in one revolution or one full rotation.

--------------

1 revolution = 26.7035375555132 inches

(1/26.7035375555132) revolution = 1 inch

1 inch = (1/26.7035375555132) revolution

1 inch = 0.03744822190398 revolution

There are 12 inches a foot, so,

1 inch = 0.03744822190398 revolution

12*1 inch = revolution

12 inches = 0.44937866284776 revolution

1 foot = 0.44937866284776 revolution

Now multiply both sides by 60

1 foot = 0.44937866284776 revolution

60*1 foot = 60*0.44937866284776 revolution

60 feet = 26.9627197708657 revolutions

Round down to the nearest whole number to get 26

We can't round to 27 even though we're really close to it. This is because we are looking for the number of whole revolutions the ball makes.

Therefore, 60 linear feet correspond to 26 full rotations of the ball. There's a bit leftover, but it's not enough to make another full rotation.

There are two coefficients in this equatin,why because we have two variables "x and y " . Therefore the coefficients are (+6 for variable x) and (+14 for variable y) and we have only one constant...why? because we can only have one constant in a given equation.

Two functions are graphed on the coordinate plane.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that, from the picture provided, the graphs intersect at points( 0, 4 ) and ( - 4, 4 ), respective to functions f( x ) and g( x ). These intersection points makes each function equivalent to one another, and hence -

Function f( x ) where x = - 4 / Function g( x ) where x = - 4,

f( - 4 ) = 4,\\g( - 4 ) = 4\\----------\\f ( - 4 ) = g ( - 4 )

Respectively function f( x ) where x = 0 / Function g( x ) where x = 0,

f( 0 ) = 4,\\g( 0 ) = 4\\----------\\f ( 0 ) = g ( 0 )

<u><em>Your solution should be option b, "  f(-4) = g(-4) and f(0) = g(0) "</em></u>

Write an equation of the ellipse with foci at (0,+12) and vertices at (0,+13)
nekit [7.7K]
 To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
 1. You have that the ellipse given as a vertical major axis (a=13), therefore, taking the ellipse with its center at the origin, you have the following equation:
 (y^2/a^2)+(x^2/b^2)=1
 2. You have the distance from the center of the ellipse to the focus:
 c=12, therefore, you can calculate the value of b, the minor radius:
 c^2=a^2-b^2
 b=√(13^3-12^2)
 b=5
 3. Therefore, the equation is:
 a^2=169
 b^2=25
 (y^2/169)+(x^2/25)=1
 The answer is: (y^2/169)+(x^2/25)=1

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

2 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 4/5÷1/3

Multiply 4/5 with the reciprocal of 1/3 as shown;

= 4/5 × 1/(1/3)

= 4/5 × 3/1

= 12/5

= 2 2/5

The quotient is 2 2/5
