The designer also programs a bird with a path that can be modeled by a quadratic function. The bird starts at the vertex of the

path at (0, 20) and passes through the point (10, 8). What is the slope of the line that represents the turtle's path?

Answer:

-1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the designer also programs a bird with a path that can be modeled by a quadratic function.

The bird starts at the vertex of the path at (0, 20) and passes through the point (10, 8).

If we treat this curve as line joining these two points then we can find the slope by the formula

Slope = change in y coordinate/change in x coordinate

Here the points given are

(0,20) and (10,8)

Change in y coordinate = 8-20 = -12\\Change in x coordinate = 10-0 = 10\\Slope = -1.2

Slope of the line that represents the turtle's path

=-1.2

Help me i need to submit to my teacher by 8pm​

Please see the figure. We'll first work out half the area of the rounded triangle, half the unshaded part, then double it, then subtract it from the big square.

Half the area is the circular sector PTQ (with center P, arc TQ) minus the right triangle PUT.

A/2 = area(sector PTQ) - area(triangle PUT)

The triangle is half of equilateral triangle PQT, so a 30/60/90 right triangle so we know the sides are in ratio 1:√3:2 so

TU = (7/2)√3

area(PUT) = (1/2) (7/2)(7/2)√3 = (49/8)√3

area(sector PTQ) = (angle TQP / 360°) πr^2

We know angle TQP is 60° because TQP is equilateral.  r=7.

area(sector PTQ) = (60°/360°) π (7²) = 49π/6

Putting it together,

A/2 = area(sector PTQ) - area(triangle PUT)

A = 2(49π/6 -  (49/8)√3)

A = 49(π/3 - √3/4) square cm

I hate ruining a nice exact answer with an approximation, but they seem to be asking.

A ≈ 30.095057615914535

Check:

I'm not sure how to check it.  I'd estimate it's about 25% bigger than equilateral triangle PQT with area (√3/4)7² ≈ 21.2, so around 27. 30 seems reasonable.

Now the real area we seek is the big square PQRS minus A, so

area = 7² - 30.095057615914535 = 18.904942384086 sq cm

They want square meters for some reason; we scale by (1/100)²

Answer: 0.00189 square meters

sasho [114]

Answer:

0.8997, 0.9999

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that among 46​- to 51​-year-olds, 28​% say they have called a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure.

i.e. X no of people who say they have called a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure is binomial with p = 0.28

Each person is independent of the other and there are only two outcomes

n =7

a) the probability that at least one has not called a talk showcalled a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure

=P(Y\geq 1) where Y is binomial with p = 0.72

= 1-(1-0.72)^7\\=0.9999

b) the probability that at least one has  called a talk showcalled a talk show while under the influence of peer pressurepeer pressurethe probability that at least one has not called a talk showcalled a talk show while under the influence of peer pressure

=P(x\geq 1) =1-P(0)\\= 1-(1-0.28)^7\\=0.8997

HELP!! To find the quotient of two fractions, you first need to rewrite the division problem as an equivalent multiplication pro
sergey [27]
1. 5/6

2. 2/3 x 5/6

3. 2/3 x 5/6 = 10/18
Multiply the numerators— 2 x 5 = 10
Multiply the denominators—3x 6= 18

4. 10/18 = 5/9
Find the greatest common factor of 10 and 18 which is 2.
Divide the numerator by 2– 10/2 = 5
Divide the denominator by 2– 18/2 = 9

I hope this helps!
