If you need the geometry and trigonometry I'll post those. Instead I found an answer at this link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMAT6450/Class%20Projects/Scarpelli/Scarpelli_MathematicsBaseballActivity.....
The distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet and from home plate to second base is <span>127.28 feet.
Pitcher's Mound to 2nd base = </span><span>
<span>
<span>
66.78</span> </span>f</span>eet
Given those distances, we KNOW a 50 foot sprinkler will NOT reach home plate and second base from the pitcher's mound.
I didn't figure out the pitcher's mound to 1st or to 3rd, since the question is already answered.
Answer:
#a. $80
#b. $1680
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
- Amount invested (principal) is $1600
- Rate of interest is 5%
- Time = 1 year
We are required to determine the amount of simple interest earned and the amount or balance in the account after 1 year.
#a. Interest earned
To calculate simple interest we use the formula;
I = (PRT) ÷ 100
Where, P is the principal, R is the rate, T is the time and I is the simple interest.
Therefore;
I = (1600 × 5 × 1) ÷ 100
= $80
Therefore, simple interest earned is $80
#b. Balance of the account (Amount accrued)
We are going to use the formula;
A = P + I , where A is the amount accrued, P is the principal and I is the simple interest earned.
Therefore;
Account balance = $1600 + $80
= $1680
Thus, the account balance after 1 year will be $1680
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
-8 = (-1/4)(4) + b
-8 = -1 + b
b = -7
To find the slope, use the equation of a line: 
Plug in the values for x and y:

We know that 2 can fit into 5 twice, which means 2*2 is 4.
We now have
.
If 5 is b more than 4, then this means that 4 is b less than 5. Subtract 4 from both sides, and you will have b = 1.
This means your equation is y = 2x + 1.
Answer:
y maximum is at 1 for both the points (4,1) and (-4,1)
