In 1906 Kennelly developed a simple formula for predicting an upper limit on the fastest time that humans could ever run distanc

es from 100 yards to 10 miles. His formula is given by t equals . 0588 s Superscript 1.125 where s is the distance in meters and t is the time to run that distance in seconds. a. Find​ Kennelly's estimate for the fastest a human could possibly run 1606 meters. tequals nothing seconds ​(Round to the nearest thousandth as​ needed.) b. Find StartFraction dt Over ds EndFraction when sequals20 and interpret your answer. StartFraction dt Over ds EndFraction almost equals nothing ​sec/m ​(Round to the nearest thousandth as​ needed.) When the distance is 20 ​meters, this rate gives the number of seconds per meter ▼ by which the fastest possible time is increasing. by which the fastest possible time is decreasing. that the fastest human could possibly run.

Answer / Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Given t = 0.0588s ¹.¹²⁵

where s is the distance and t is the time to run that distance.

The second portion asks us to find the derivative of the equation when our s value is equal to 20 and interpret.

(2) First, we try to convert the unit from miles to meters

Therefore, 1 mile = 1609 meters

Then,

         t = 0.0588 ( 1609 ) ¹.¹²⁵

             =238 . 09

This gives us the instantaneous rate of change of seconds between every 20 meters ran.

The last portion asks us to compare this estimate to current world records. And have they been surpassed?

As of today, the fastest official record for a standard mile is held by a man from Morocco named Hichan El Guerrouj. The time was recorded at 3.43 minutes in Rome, Italy on July 7th, 1999.

Now, keep in mind that this is almost a full minute slower than the estimated time. However, how do these projections hold up against Usain Bolt, the man that is considered the fastest man in the world ?

Although, Usain Bolt does run long distances, he holds records in nearly every sprinting event that he has ever competed in.

Hence, Kennelly's estimate for the fastest mile is 238.09

(3) Now, noting that since dt / ds = 0.0588 ( 1.25 ) s  ⁰.¹²⁵

Then,

           dt / ds I 100 = 0.0588 (1.25) (20)  ⁰.¹²⁵

                              = 0.1176

The exponential function y= a(b)^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10). Which of the following is closest to the value o
Yuki888 [10]

If the exponential function y=ab^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

The given exponential equation is:

y=ab^x

The function passes through the points (3, 25) and (8, 10)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 25 into the function y=ab^x

25=ab^3............................(1)

Substitute x = 8 and y = 10 into the function y=ab^x

10=ab^8.............................(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

\frac{10}{25}=\frac{ab^8}{ab^3}  \\\\0.4=b^5\\\\b=0.4^\frac{1}{5} \\\\b=0.4^{0.2}\\\\b=0.833

Therefore, if the exponential function y=ab^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

Coleman uses his graphing calculator to find all of the solutions to the equation shown below.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. x = -1.38 and 0.82

Please find attached the combined function chart

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is x³ + 3 = -x⁴ + 4

Plotting the equation using Excel, we have;

f(x) = x³ + 3, h(x) = -x⁴ + 4

x                                             f(x)                                       h(x)

-1.4                                         0.256                                   0.1584

-1.39                                       0.314381                              0.26699

-1.38                                       0.371928                             0.373261

-1.37                                       0.428647                             0.477246

-1.36                                       0.484544                             0.57898

Which shows an intersection at the point around -1.38

x                                          f(x)                                     h(x)

0.77                                    3.456533                         3.64847

0.78                                    3.474552                         3.629849

0.79                                    3.493039                          3.610499

0.8                                         3.512                                3.5904

0.81                                      3.531441                           3.569533

0.82                                       3.551368                          3.547878

0.83                                       3.571787                            3.525417

Which shows the intersection point around 0.82

Therefore, the correct option is x = -1.38 and 0.82

From the graphing calculator the intersection point is given as

x = -1.3802775691 and 0.81917251339.

Sean is helping his dad build a tiled walkway in their backyard. The walkway will be 69 feet long and 2 feet wide. The local har
Flura [38]
First we should figure out how many times 2 goes into 69,(because each tile is 2 feet long) and I am going to do that by dividing 69 by 2. I got 34.5, so we can just say 35 to make it easier. So we now know we need 35 tiles, but they come in boxes of 6, so we will need to divide 35 by 6. It didn't make a full number (it was 5.833) but we need a full number of tiles so we will round up.

Our final number of how many boxes of tiles is 6.
