Answer: 0.000274 dragon fly per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert the 10 years into days:

10 × 365 = 3650 days.

This means that one dragon fly dies every 3650 days.

Now, to find how many that dies in a day:

1 ÷ 3650 = 0.000274, corrected to three significant figure.

Looks more like a probability question.

HELP ASAP Solve for x. Show or explain your work.

irinina [24]

Answer:

$x=4.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

From AAA, both triangles in this figure are similar. Therefore, we can set up the following proportion:

$\frac{x}{9}=\frac{x+3}{15}$ or $\frac{x}{9}=\frac{3}{6}$ .

Cross-multiplying, we get:

$6x=9(3),\\6x=27,\\x=\frac{27}{6}=\fbox{$4.5$}$ .

The function a(t)=t^(1/2)−t^(−1/2) m/s^2 represents the acceleration of a particle moving along a horizontal axis. At time t=0,

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

a(t)=t^(1/2)−t^(−1/2)

We integrate to find the velocity

v(t) = integral t^(1/2)−t^(−1/2) dt

= t ^ (1/2 +1) t ^ (-1/2 +1)

------------ - ----------------- + c where c is the constant of integration

3/2 1/2

v(t) = 2/3 t^ 3/2 - 2 t^ 1/2 +c

We find c by letting t=0 since we know the velocity is 4/3 when t=0

v(0) = 2/3 0^ 3/2 - 2 0^ 1/2 +c = 4/3

0+c =4/3

c = 4/3

v(t) = 2/3 t^ 3/2 - 2 t^ 1/2 +4/3

To find the position function we need to integrate the velocity

p(t) = integral 2/3 t^ 3/2 - 2 t^ 1/2 +4/3 dt

2/3 t ^ (3/2 +1) 2 t ^ (1/2 +1) 4/3t

------------ - ----------------- + ------------- + c

5/2 3/2 1

p(t) = 4/15 t^ 5/2 - 4/3t ^ 3/2 + 4/3t +c

We find c by letting t=0 since we know the position is -4/15 when t=0

p(0) = 4/15 0^ 5/2 - 4/3 0 ^ 3/2 + 4/3*0 +c = -4/15

0 +c = -4/15

c = -4/15

p(t) = 4/15 t^ 5/2 - 4/3t ^ 3/2 + 4/3t -4/15

Find the slope of the line on the graph.write your answer as a fraction or a whole number, not a mixed number

Leona [35]

Answer:

slope = $-\frac{1}{2}$ if it were in an

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph is a negative and will therefore have a negative slope. to find the slope, pick a point on the graph and find the $\frac{rise}{run}$ .

for instance, start with the point (0,1). Then go down 1 and left 2 to get to the next point on the graph (2,0). 1 is the "rise" and 2 is the "run" hence -1/2 being the slope.

you could also use the slope formula: $\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

point 1: (0,1) (x₁ ,y₁)

point 2: (2,0) (x₂ , y₂)

$\frac{0-1}{2-0} =-\frac{1}{2}$
