Answer:
4/35 lottery is easier to win.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the 5/48 lottery, the winning probability is 
≈0.1042
For the 4/35 lottery, the winning probability is 
≈ 0.1143
Since > , the lottery where one chooses 4 of the numbers 1 through 35 is easier to win.
3.01 m/s
This is a simple projectile calculation. What we want is a vertical velocity such that the time the droplet spends going up and going back down to the surface exactly matches the time the droplet takes to travel horizontally 0.800 meters. The time the droplet spends in the air will is:
V*sqrt(3)/2 ; Vertical velocity.
(V*sqrt(3)/2)/9.8 ; Time until droplet reaches maximum height
(V*sqrt(3))/9.8 ; Double that time for droplet to fall back to the surface.
The droplet's horizontal velocity will be:
V/2.
So the total distance the droplet travels will be:
d = (V*sqrt(3))/9.8 * V/2
d = V^2*sqrt(3)/19.6
Let's substitute the desired distance and solve for V
d = V^2*sqrt(3)/19.6
0.8 = V^2*sqrt(3)/19.6
15.68 = V^2*sqrt(3)
15.68/sqrt(3) = V^2
15.68/1.732050808 = V^2
3.008795809 = V
So after rounding to 3 significant figures, the archerfish needs to spit the water at a velocity of 3.01 m/s
Let's verify that answer.
Vertical velocity: 3.01 * sin(60) = 3.01 * 0.866025404 = 2.606736465
Time of flight = 2.606736465 * 2 / 9.8 = 0.531987034 seconds.
Horizontal velocity: 3.01 * cos(60) = 3.01 * 0.5 =
Answers:
- Choice B) y = (1/4)x
- The unit rate is <u> 3.89 </u> dollars per pound. It costs <u> 23.34 </u> dollars for a turkey that weighs 6 pounds.
=====================================================
Explanations:
- Direct proportional equations are always in the form y = kx, where k is some constant. In the case of choice B, we have k = 1/4. Visually, direct proportion equations are always straight lines and go through the origin.
- Divide $34.99 over 9 to get 34.99/9 = 3.88777 approximately. This rounds to 3.89, so it costs $3.89 per pound. That's the unit rate. Multiply this by 6 to get 6*3.89 = 23.34 which is the cost of the 6 pound turkey.
