Linda shoots an arrow at a target in an archery competition. The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation y= -0.02x to th

e power of 2 + 0.65+4 where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow. How far from Linda does the arrow hit the ground? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

37.8metres

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc of the arrow can be modeled by the equation:

y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4

Where x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda and y is the height (in meters) of the arrow.

The arrow hits the ground when its height (y) is zero.

Therefore, we determine the value(s) of x for which:

y=-0.02x²+0.65x+4=0

Using a calculator to solve the quadratic equation:

x=37.79 or -5.29

Since the distance cannot be a negative value, we ignore -5.29.

The distance from Linda when the arrow hits the ground is 37.8metres (to the nearest tenth)

Answer:

37.8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The arc trajectory of the arrow is modeled by:

                    y = -0.02x^2 + 0.65x + 4

Where, x is the horizontal distance (in meters) from Linda

            y is the height (in meters) of the arrow

Find:-

How far from Linda does the arrow hit the ground? Round to the nearest tenth.

Solution:-

- We are to determine the range of the projectile trajectory of the arrow. The maximum distance "x_max" occurs when the arrow hits the ground.

- Set the trajectory height of arrow from linda , y = 0:

                   0 = -0.02x^2 + 0.65x + 4

- Solve the quadratic equation:

                   x = -5.29 m , x = 37.8 m

- The negative distance x lies at the back of Linda and hence can be ignored. The maximum distance travelled by the arrow would be = 37.8 m

What is the probability that when we roll 5 fair 6-sided dice, at most 4 of them will show a 1?

If you're rolling 5 dice, and all dice have a 1 on them, then you still have a 4/5 chance that four of the five dice will show 1.

First, determine if the boundary line should be dotted or solid. In this case, it should be dotted because the symbol is less than not less than or equal to. This leaves you with options B or D. Now, to see if it should be shaded up or down, test it by substituting any point, let's say the origin (0,0), to see if that point is a solution to the equation. If it is, you shade that side of the graph, but if it's not, you shade the other side of the graph.

0 is less than (-3/4)(0) + 2

0 is less than 2.

Because 0 is actually less than 2, the statement is correct and you shade below the line

Answer: D

Please help on two math questions. I don’t understand how to do them.
Sidana [21]

When you represent intervals on the number line, you're including full dots, excluding empty dots, and you're considering numbers highlighted by the line.

In the first case, you've highlighted everything before -2 (full dot, thus included), and everything after 1 (empty dot, excluded). So, the set would be

x\leq -2 \lor\ x>1

or, in interval notation,

(-\infty,-2]\cup (1,\infty)

In the second case, you are looking for all numbers between -3 and 5. This interval is symmetric with respect to 1: you're considering all numbers that are at most 4 units away from 1, both to the left and to the right.

This means that the difference between your numbers at 1 must be at most 4, which is modelled by

|x-1|\leq 4

where the absolute values guarantees that you'll pick numbers to the left and to the right of 1.
