Answer:

7.1 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for the fish to reach the water.

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 6.1 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

6.1 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.12 s

Next, find the velocity needed to travel 7.9 m in that time.

Given in the x direction:

Δx = 7.9 m

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.12 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

7.9 m = v₀ (1.12 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.12 s)²

v₀ = 7.1 m/s

The histogram below shows the number of downloads of a song over time.
Allisa [31]

Given data:

  • It is a graphical display where the data is grouped in to ranges
  • A diagram consists rectangles, whose area is proportional to frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.
  • It is an accurate representation of the distribution of numerical data.

<em>From Figure:</em>  

        Each box in the graph (small rectangle box) is assumed to be one download. So, in the graph the time between 8 p.m to 9 p.m, the number of downloads are 8.75 approximately (because the last box is incomplete, therefore 8 complete boxes and 9th is more than half).

<em>So, We conclude that the total number of downloads are approximately 9 in the time span of 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.</em>

Given a die, would it be more likely to get a single 6 in six rolls, at least two 6s in twelve rolls, or at least one-hundred 6s
vichka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In first case we are interested in one time 6 in six rolls

Thus probability = number of chances required/Total chances

= 1/6

Similarly in the second case probability = 2/12 = 1/6

In the same way in last case probability = 100/600 = 1/6

The probability is the same . Thus all the cases has equal chances
