A baseball player threw 82 strikes out of 103 pitches. what percentage of pitches were strikes?

1 answer:

3 0

We have been given that a baseball player threw 82 strikes out of 103 pitches. We are asked to find the percentage of pitches that were strikes.

To solve our given problem, we need to find strikes are what percent of pitches.

$\text{Percentage of pitches that were strikes}=\frac{82}{103}\times 100\%$

$\text{Percentage of pitches that were strikes}=0.7961165\times 100\%$

$\text{Percentage of pitches that were strikes}=79.61165\%$

$\text{Percentage of pitches that were strikes}\approx 79.6\%$

Therefore, approximately $79.6\%$ of pitches were strikes.

Find angle A using sin-1

ki77a [65]

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly, use the pythagoras theorem

Square root(8²-2²) = 7.75

Then, use sine

sine A= 7.75/8

Sine A=0.9688

A= (sine power of -1) x (0.9688)

A=75.63

For the system of equations that follows, use Gaussian elimination to obtain an equivalent system whose coefficient matrix is in

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 0 & 0& 46/41 &180/41\\0 & 1 & 0&1/41 &-5/41\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

System of equations given as

x₁ + 3x₂ + x₃ + x₄ = 3;

2x₁ - 2x₂ + x₃ + 2x₄ = 8;

x₁ - 5x₂ + x₄ = 5

Matrix form

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\2 & -2 & 1&2&8\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$ $\begin{Vmatrix}x_1\\x_2\\x_3\\x_4\end{Vmatrix}$

Generally the echelon reduction is mathematically applied as

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\2 & -2 & 1&2&8\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -2 times the 1st row to the 2nd row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & -8 & -1&0&2\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$

Multiply the 2nd row by -1/8

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & 1 & 1/8&0&-1/4\\0&1 & -5 & 1& 5\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -1 times the 2nd row to the 3rd row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & 1 & 1/8&0&-1/4\\0&0 & -41/8 & 1& 21/4\end{Vmatrix}$

Multiply the 3rd row by -8/41

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 1&1&3\\0 & 1 & 1/8&0&-1/4\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -1/8 times the 3rd row to the 2nd row

Add -1 times the 3rd row to the 1st row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 3 & 0&49/41&165/41\\0 & 1 & 0&1/41 &-5/41\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$

Add -3 times the 2nd row to the 1st row

$\begin{Vmatrix}1 & 0 & 0& 46/41 &180/41\\0 & 1 & 0&1/41 &-5/41\\0&0 & 1 & -8/41& -42/41\end{Vmatrix}$
