In May, Jim’s lunch account has a balance of $58.19. If lunch costs $2.74 per day, how many days will Jim be able to buy lunch b

efore his account runs out of money?

Answer:

<u>21 days.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, divide the cost of lunch from the initial amount in his account. Therefore:

58.19 = 2.74x ('x' being the number of days)

Divide both sides by 2.74:

$\frac{58.19}{2.74} = \frac{2.74x}{2.74}$

x ≈21.24, or 21 days.

***Since you use whole numbers when counting days, round down to determine the amount of days he can buy lunch. Thus, he can buy lunch for <u>21 days.</u>

Help!!!! If you wanted to model movements with both of the robot's arms in the air, what function

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

f(x)=x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

if you wanted have a function where both of the robot's arms are in the air the function could be x to the power of any even number such f(x)=x^2, f(x)=x^4, f(x)=x^6, or even f(x)=x^10. And you could still do the same transformations with these equations.

Find the standard equation of a sphere that has diameter with the end points given below. (3,-2,4) (7,12,4)

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The standard equation of the sphere is $(x-5)^{2} + (y-5)^{2} + (z-4)^{2} = 53$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the end point are (3,-2,4) and (7,12,4)

Since we know the end points of the diameter, we can determine the center (midpoint of the two end points) of the sphere.

The midpoint can be calculated thus

Midpoint = $(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2} }{2}, \frac{z_{1} + z_{2} }{2})$

Let the first endpoint be represented as $(x_{1}, y_{1}, z_{1})$ and the second endpoint be $(x_{2}, y_{2}, z_{2})$ .

Hence,

Midpoint = $(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2} }{2}, \frac{z_{1} + z_{2} }{2})$

Midpoint = $(\frac{3 + 7 }{2}, \frac{-2+12 }{2}, \frac{4 + 4 }{2})$

Midpoint = $(\frac{10 }{2}, \frac{10}{2}, \frac{8 }{2})\\$

Midpoint = $(5, 5, 4)$

This is the center of the sphere.

Now, we will determine the distance (diameter) of the sphere

The distance is given by

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2} - y_{1})^{2} + (z_{2}- z_{1})^{2} }$

$d = \sqrt{(7 - 3)^{2} +(12 - -2)^{2} + (4- 4)^{2}$

$d = \sqrt{(4)^{2} +(14)^{2} + (0)^{2}$

$d = \sqrt{16 +196 + 0$

$d =\sqrt{212}$

$d = 2\sqrt{53}$

This is the diameter

To find the radius, r

From $Radius = \frac{Diameter}{2}$

$Radius = \frac{2\sqrt{53} }{2}$

∴ $Radius = \sqrt{53}$

r = $\sqrt{53}$

Now, we can write the standard equation of the sphere since we know the center and the radius

Center of the sphere is $(5, 5, 4)$

Radius of the sphere is $\sqrt{53}$

The equation of a sphere of radius r and center $(h,k,l)$ is given by

$(x-h)^{2} + (y-k)^{2} + (z-l)^{2} = r^{2}$

Hence, the equation of the sphere of radius $\sqrt{53}$ and center $(5, 5, 4)$ is

$(x-5)^{2} + (y-5)^{2} + (z-4)^{2} = \sqrt{(53} )^{2}$

$(x-5)^{2} + (y-5)^{2} + (z-4)^{2} = 53$

This is the standard equation of the sphere

A golfball is hit from the ground with an initial velocity of 200 ft/sec. The horizontal distance that the golfball will travel,

algol13

Answer:

The golfball launched with an initial velocity of 200ft/s will travel the maximum possible distance which is 1250 ft when it is hit at an angle of $\pi/4$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula from the maximum distance of a projectile with initial height h=0, is:

$d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2\theta)}{g}$

Where $v_i$ is the initial velocity.

In the closed interval method, the first step is to find the values of the function in the critical points in the interval which is $[0, \pi/2]$ . The critical points of the function are those who make $d'(\theta)=0$ :

$d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2\sin(2\theta)}{g}\\d'(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2\cos(2\theta)}{g}*(2)\\d'(\theta)=\frac{2v_i^2\cos(2\theta)}{g}$

$d'(\theta)=0\\\frac{2v_i^2\cos(2\theta)}{g}=0\\\cos(2\theta)=0\\2\theta=\pi/2,3\pi/2,5\pi/2,...\\\theta=\pi/4,3\pi/4,5\pi/4,...$

The critical value inside the interval is $\pi/4$ .

$d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2(\pi/4))}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{v_i^2sin(\pi/2)}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{v_i^2(1)}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{(200)^2}{32}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{40000}{32}\\d(\pi/4)=1250ft$

The second step is to find the values of the function at the endpoints of the interval:

$d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\theta=0\\d(0)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2(0))}{g}\\d(0)=\frac{v_i^2(0)}{g}=0ft\\\theta=\pi/2\\d(\pi/2)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2(\pi/2))}{g}\\d(\pi/2)=\frac{v_i^2sin(\pi)}{g}\\d(\pi/2)=\frac{v_i^2(0)}{g}=0ft$

The biggest value of f is gived by $\pi/4$ , therefore $\pi/4$ is the absolute maximum.

In the context of the problem, the golfball launched with an initial velocity of 200ft/s will travel the maximum possible distance which is 1250 ft when it is hit at an angle of $\pi/4$ .

The $199.99 game console Amy purchased was on sale for 10% off. How much did Amy pay?

Sonja [21]

Answer:

$179.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Take total cost and multiply by the percent in decimal form

$199.99*0.10

=$19.99

Subtract the 10% from the original sum

$199.99-$19.99

=$179.99
