Answer:
L = s^2/(30.25Cd)
Step-by-step explanation:
In accident investigation, the speed of a vehicle can be estimated using a polynomial function that relates speed (s) to the length of skid marks (L). The drag coefficient Cd will depend on the condition of the road surface and tires, but might be expected to be between 0.7 and 0.8.
If the skid marks end in a collision, the length of the marks that might have been made can be estimated using this formula, then that length added to the actual length of marks to estimate the original speed. The speed at the point of collision can be estimated by the damage caused, and/or the movement created.
In the above formula, length is in feet, and speed is in miles per hour.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
JK intercept line XY at the midpoint. This means that these points are all equidistant from the midpoint. Due to this, J and K are both an equal distance from M. So is X and Y.
Answer:
the parabola can be written as:
f(x) = y = a*x^2 + b*x + c
first step.
find the vertex at:
x = -b/2a
the vertex will be the point (-b/2a, f(-b/2a))
now, if a is positive, then the arms of the parabola go up, if a is negative, the arms of the parabola go down.
The next step is to see if we have real roots by using the Bhaskara's equation:
Now, draw the vertex, after that draw the values of the roots in the x-axis, and now conect the points with the general draw of the parabola.
If you do not have any real roots, you can feed into the parabola some different values of x around the vertex
for example at:
x = (-b/2a) + 1 and x = (-b/2a) - 1
those two values should give the same value of y, and now you can connect the vertex with those two points.
If you want a more exact drawing, you can add more points (like x = (-b/2a) + 3 and x = (-b/2a) - 3) and connect them, as more points you add, the best sketch you will have.
Hello there! Given that normal dice are numbered 1-6, individually rolling a 4 or a 5 would give a 1/6 probability. That converts to about 17% as a percentage because we can multiply 1 by 100 to get 100/6, then divide 100 by 6 to get 16.6666. When rounding, that gives approximately 17%. However, if we combined probabilities, we would find that rolling a 4 or a 5 collectively gives a 2/6 probability, which is approximately 33% as a decimal.
In terms of individual probabilities, you would be 17% likely to roll one of them. In terms of collectiveness, the likelihood of rolling a 4 or 5 would render 33% on each die. If you need additional help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
Answer:
16.7%.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are initially 
pencils in the bag.
Take a pencil out of this bag of 47 pencils. 15 out of the 47 pencils blue. Let 
represent the event of getting a blue pencil on the first pick. The probability of getting a blue pencil is:
.
There are now 
pencils left in the bag. However, given that the first pencil removed from the bag is blue, the number of red pencils in the bag will still be 24. Take another pencil out of this bag of 46 pencils. Let 
represent the event of getting a red pencil on the second pick. The possibility that the second pencil is red given that the first pencil is blue will be:
.
The question is asking for the possibility that the first pencil is blue and the second pencil is red. That is:
.
