It would be 50, remember PEMDAS, Parentheses “()”, Exponents, Multiplication or Division (whichever comes first), Addition or Subtraction (whichever comes first).

So you would multiply -9 by -5 to get positive 45. As the 45 is positive it would be 5+45=50

matrenka [14]

Answer:

3.803% Profit

Step-by-step explanation:

First let us calculate total sales, then calculate the total cost, and then divide the two.

Sale: 120*1.1=132 and 52*.9=46.8

Cost: 120 and 52

Profit equation:

$\frac{Net sales-COGS}{Net Sales} =Profit$

$\frac{(132+46.8)-(120+52)}{(132+46.8)}$

Simplify:

$\frac{6.8}{178.8} =.03803$ or 3.803% Profit

A grasshopper jumps straight up from the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 8 feet per second. After how many seconds w

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Problem 1 : After 0.25 s

Problem 2 : The squirrel doesn't reach the ground before the nut

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 1

This is a standard physics problem

The equation that defines the movement of the grasshopper given the initial velocity, and the acceleration is the following

Distance = Do + Vo*t + 0.5*a*t^2

Where

Do is the initial distance.

(Do = 0, because the grasshopper is on the ground and we choose the reference system there)

Vo is the initial velocity = 8 feet/sec

a is the acceleration that is exerted on the body (in this case a = g = -9.8 m/s^2 = - 32.174 feet per second per second.)

t is the time

We substitute in the equation, and solve for t (time)

Distance = Do + Vo*t + 0.5*a*t^2

(1 foot)= (0)+ (8 feet/s)*t + 0.5*(-32.174 feet/s^2)*t^2

Solving this equation, we get that

t = 0.25 s

Problem 2

This problem is similar to the previous one

We apply the same formula

D = Do + Vo*t + 0.5*a*t^2

But in this case, we are going in the opposite direction, and we have an initial distance.

Do = 27 feet

Vo is the initial velocity of the nut = -6 feet/s

D = 0 (Ground)

We substitute in the equation, and solve for t (time)

(0) = (27) + (-6 feet/s)*t + 0.5*(-32 feet/s^2)*t^2

t = 1.125 s < 2s

The nut reaches ground in 1.125 s, so the squirrel doesn't reach the ground before the nut

Area of semi circle: you know the radius is 5. 5^2 * pi = 25pi/2 = 12.5pi
For triangle: bh/2 = (10 * 10)/2 = 50
Add them together: 12.5pi + 50
12.5pi = 39.25
39.25 + 50 = 89.25
It’s closest to D

Tell whether the lines through the given points are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The Slope of Line 1 is -> $-\frac{2}{9}$

The Slope of Line 2 is -> $-\frac{9}{2}$

These two lines are - > Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of line one, you follow these steps:

First Coordinate 10 -> x1, 5 -> y1

Second Coordinate -8 -> x2, 9 -> y2

Then insert the assigned values into this equation: $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ -> $\frac{9-5}{-8-10}$ which equals $\frac{4}{-18}$ which simplifies to $-\frac{2}{9}$

Then do the same process to find the slop of line 2:

First Coord: 2 -> x1, -4 -> y1

Second Coord: 11 -> x2, -6 -> y2

Then insert the values into this equation: $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ -> $\frac{11-2}{-6-(-4)}$ which equals $\frac{9}{-2}$ .

We know the lines are perpendicular by:

a. Typing the equations of the lines into a graphing calculator and observing the graph

b. Looking at the slopes. By looking at the slopes, we see that the slope of line 1 is the reciprocal of line 2, and vice versa. Since reciprocal slopes indicate perpendicular lines, the lines 1 and 2 are perpendicular to each other.

Hope this helps!
