A directed line segment on a gridded map shows the path of a hot air balloon from 1(0,0) to B(8,4). Each grid unit represents 1

mile. The balloon traveled at a constant speed of 20 miles per hour Point V divides line segment AB in the ratio 6 to 2.
a) What are the coordinates of point V? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary


b) Mary states that the distance from point A to point Vis 6 miles. What is Mary's mistake? What is the

correct distance? (Check)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There is  a point V with ration 6 to 2, therefore we must find the coordinates of point V and the distance from A to V

<u>According to the graph</u>

c^{2}=x^{2}+y^{2}\\c^{2}=8^{2}+4^{2}\\c=\sqrt{64+16}=8.9.4\\sin\alpha =\frac{4}{8.94}

α≅27°

V=2*8.94/6 (ratio 6:2)

V=2.98mile

sin27=\frac{y}{2.98}\\y=sin27*2.98=1.35\\cos27=\frac{x}{2.98}\\x=cos27*2.98=2.65

coordinates of V = (2,65;1.35)

Distance from A to V

d_{AV}=2.98 miles

finally

Mary's mistake is to take the 6 to 2 ratio as the distance traveled from the globe only in the x direction

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The mean phenotype code is 2.72

The median phenotype code is 2.52

The mode phenotype code is 2.

The midrange of the phenotype codes is 2.52

B Only the mode makes sense since the data is nominal.

How to find unknown side
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

C = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the last side of the triangle using the Pythagorean theorem.

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

You have a and b already, a = 6, b = 8

6^{2} +8^{2} =c^{2} \\\\

solve this to get

64 + 36 = \sqrt{100}

C = 10

Apply the same to the other 2 triangles. C is your longest side!

Find an approximate equation y=ab^x with the coordinates (0, 4) (3, 95)
bogdanovich [222]
We have y=ab^{x}

Plug in (0, 4):
4=ab^{0}⇒4=a
So we now have a

Plug in (3, 95):
95=4b^{3}
⇒b^{3}=\frac{95}{4}
⇒b=\sqrt[3]{\frac{95}{4}}
which is approximately 2.874

So we get
y=4(\sqrt[3]{\frac{95}{4}})^{x}
or, in decimal form,
y=4*2.874^{x}

Is the number of points scored during a basketball game a discrete random​ variable, a continuous random​ variable, or not a ran
monitta

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of points scored during a basketball game is a discrete random variable.

Discrete Random variable:

A discrete random variable is a variable whose value can be evaluated by counting. It is also referred as a countable and finite values. Examples of discrete random variable are as follows:

-The quantity of runs scored during a ball game  

- Number of hits a site gets during seven days  

- Number of lights that wear out in the following year in a stay with 13 bulbs  

- Number of pigeons in a city  

- Number of free-toss endeavors before the principal shot is missed
