What is the gradient and y-intercept of 3y=4x+6

1 answer:

8 0

Y = mx + b

m is the gradient, otherwise known as slope
b is known as the y-intercept

So 3y = 4x + 6

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y.

y = (4/3)x + 2

The gradient is 4/3
The y-intercept is 2

A ball is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 60 mph. it is thrown from a height of 5 feet. what is the maximum height it

natima [27]

Answer:

h = 61.25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The initial velocity of the ball, v = 60 m/s

It is thrown from a height of 5 feet, $h_o=5\ ft$

We need to find the maximum height it reaches. The height reached by the projectile as a function of time t is given by :

$h=-16t^2+vt+h_0$

Putting all the values,

$h=-16t^2+60t+5$ .....(1)

For maximum height, put

$\dfrac{dh}{dt}=0\\\\\dfrac{-16t^2+60t+5}{dt}=0\\\\-32t+60=0\\\\t=\dfrac{-60}{-32}\\\\t=1.875\ s$

Put t = 1.875 in equation (1)

$h=-16(1.875)^2+60(1.875)+5\\\\h=61.25\ m$

So, the maximum height reached by the ball is 61.25 m.

If a tree 41.8 feet tall casts a shadow that is 27 feet long, find the height of a tree casting a shadow that is 18.3 feet long

Neko [114]

Answer:

28.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a tree 41.8 feet tall casts a shadow that is 27 feet long

So the Tangent of the angle of the sahdow remains the same for the both trees.

We know that $Tanx=\frac{height of the tree}{length of the shadow}$

$\frac{height of the tree1}{length of the shadow1} = \frac{height of the tree2}{length of the shadow2}$

$\frac{41.8}{27} =\frac{x}{18.3}$

$x=\frac{41.8}{27}\times18.3 =28.3$

Therefore the height of the tree is 28.3 feet

The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the annexation of an adjoining community. A political study took a sample of 900 vot

Stells [14]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.75 -0.72}{\sqrt{\frac{0.72(1-0.72)}{900}}}=2.00$

Now we can calculate the p value. Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v= P(Z>2) =0.0228$

Since the p value is lower than the significance level of 0.05 we have enough evidence to conclude that the true proportion of residents favored annexation is higher than 0.72 or 72%

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=900 represent the random sample selected

$\hat p=0.75$ estimated proportion of residents favored annexation

$p_o=0.72$ is the value that we want to test

represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

The political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is above 72%.:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.72$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.72$

The statistic for this case is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the data given we got:

$z=\frac{0.75 -0.72}{\sqrt{\frac{0.72(1-0.72)}{900}}}=2.00$

Now we can calculate the p value. Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v= P(Z>2) =0.0228$

Since the p value is lower than the significance level of 0.05 we have enough evidence to conclude that the true proportion of residents favored annexation is higher than 0.72 or 72%
