Answer:

The ball will bounce back to 2.5 feet if it is dropped from a height of 3 3/4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of drop = 3 3/4 feet

\texttt{Height of drop = }3\frac{3}{4}feet=\frac{3\times 4+3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}feet

According to NBA standards, a basketball should bounce back 2/3 the distance from which it is dropped.

So the ball will bounce back to 2/3 of dropping height,

Here

          h=\frac{15}{4}feet\\\\\texttt{Height to bounce backed = }\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{15}{4}=\frac{30}{12}\\\\\texttt{Height to bounce backed = }\frac{5}{2}=2.5feet

The ball will bounce back to 2.5 feet if it is dropped from a height of 3 3/4 feet

3×4=12
2×4=8

8/12

4×3=12
3×3=9

3 9/12

3 9/12-8/12= 2 11/12

If I am not wrong then the answer is 2 11/12

Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample.
Furkat [3]

Answer:

A) When using the shell​ method, the axis of the cylindrical shells is parallel to the axis of revolution. True.

The Shell method is a technique used to find the volume of a solid of revolution. Here, we take thin shells with axis coinciding with the axis about which the region whose volume is to be found, is revolved.

B) If a region is revolved about the​ y-axis, then the shell method must be used. False.

This method can be used with any axis of rotation.

C) If a region is revolved about the​ x-axis, then in principle it is possible to use the​ disk/washer method and integrate with respect to x or the shell method and integrate with respect to y. True.

The washer method uses thin disks with infinite width but the shell method uses thin concentric shells with infinite width about the axis of revolution. So, the statement is true.

An airplane leaves an airport and flies due west 150 miles and then 170 miles in the direction S 49.17°W. How far is the plane f
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

299.99 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the plane traveled due west,

The total angle is 49.17 + 90

Represent that with θ

θ = 49.17 + 90

θ = 139.17.

Represent the sides as

A = 170

B = 150

C = unknown

Since, θ is opposite side C, side C can be calculated using cosine formula as;

C² = A² + B² - 2ABCosθ

Substitute values for A, B and θ

C² = 150² + 170² - 2 * 150 * 170 * Cos 139.17

C² = 22500 + 28900 - 51000 * Cos 139.17

C² = 51400 - 51000 (−0.7567)

C² = 51400 + 38,591.7

C² = 89,991.7

Take Square Root of both sides

C = 299.9861663477167

C = 299.99 miles (Approximated)

Hence, the distance between the plane and the airport is 299.99 miles
