A radar gun was used to record the speed of a swimmer (in meters per second) during selected times in the first 2 seconds of a r

ace. Use a trapezoidal sum with 4 intervals to estimate the distance the swimmer covered during those 2 seconds. Give a 2 decimal place answer and include units.

Trapezoidal is involving averageing the heights
the 4 intervals are
[0,4] and [4,7.2] and [7.2,8.6] and [8.6,9]

the area of each trapezoid is (v(t1)+v(t2))/2 times width

for the first interval
the average between 0 and 0.4 is 0.2
the width is 4
4(0.2)=0.8

2nd
average between 0.4 and 1 is 0.7
width is 3.2
3.2 times 0.7=2.24

3rd
average betwen 1.0 and 1.5 is 1.25
width is 1.4
1.4 times 1.25=1.75

4th
average betwen 1.5 and 2 is 1.75
width is 0.4
0.4 times 1.74=0.7

add them all up
0.8+2.24+1.75+0.7=5.49

5.49
t=time
v(t)=speed
so the area under the curve is distance
covered 5.49 meters

Find a and b if the points p(6,0) and q(3,2) lie on the graph of ax + by =12
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

a= 2

b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p(x,y) = (6,0)

q(x,y) = (3,2)

ax + by = 12

Required

Find a and b

In p(x,y) = (6,0), x = 6 and y = 0.

This gives:

a*6 + b*0 = 12

6a = 12

Divide by 6

a= 2

In q(x,y) = (3,2). x = 3 and y = 2.

This gives:

a*3 + b*2 = 12

3a + 2b = 12

Substitute 2 for a

3*2 + 2b = 12

6 + 2b = 12

Collect Like Terms

2b = 12 - 6

2b = 6

Divide by 2

b = 3

Sam bought an electric iron as a price of 25 less than the original price if the original price of it is $2500 at what price did
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$2475  or $1875

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the question meant to say $25 less than the original price, it would be $2475 because $2500-$25= $2475

However, if the question meant to say that Sam bought the iron for 25% less than the original price, it would be $1875 because 2500*0.25= $625

$2500-$625= $1875

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

(1.5, 10.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint =  \bigg( \frac{10 + ( - 7)}{2},  \:  \:  \frac{14 + 7}{2}  \bigg) \\  \\  = \bigg( \frac{3}{2}, \:  \:  \frac{21}{2}  \bigg) \\  \\  = = ( 1.5,  \:  \:  10.5 )
