Landon is standing in a hole that is 5.1 ft deep. He throws a rock, and it goes up into the air, out of the hole, and then lands

on the ground above. The path of the rock can be modeled by the equation y = -0.005x2 + 0.41x - 5.1, where x is the horizontal distance of the rock, in feet, from Landon and y is the height, in feet, of the rock above the ground. How far horizontally from Landon will the rock land?

This describes a parabolic path that starts at x=0 on a value of y = -5.1.  That's when the rock is below ground in the hole.  To find the answer we need to know the second x axis crossing.  The first is when it is rising and reaches ground level, the second is after it peaks and falls back to the ground and lands. Using the quadratic formula I get the two zeros of this function to be about
x= 15.29, and 66.71.  The rock then lands 66.71 feet from him horizontally.

A sample is selected from a population with μ = 46, and a treatment is administered to the sample. After treatment, the sample m
Georgia [21]

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The sample mean before treatment, μ1 = 46  

- The sample mean  after treatment, μ2 = 48

- The sample standard deviation σ = √16 = 4

- For the independent samples T-test, Cohen's d is determined by calculating the mean difference between your two groups, and then dividing the result by the pooled standard deviation.

                           Cohen's d = \frac{u2 - u1}{sd_p_o_o_l_e_d}

- Where, the pooled standard deviation (sd_pooled) is calculated using the formula:

                          sd_p_o_o_l_e_d =\sqrt{\frac{SD_1^2 +SD_2^2}{2} }

- Assuming that population standard deviation and sample standard deviation are same:

                          SD_1 = SD_2 =  σ = 4

- Then,

                           sd_p_o_o_l_e_d =\sqrt{\frac{4^2 +4^2}{2} } = 4

- The cohen's d can now be evaliated:

                          Cohen's d = \frac{48 - 46}{4} = 0.5

What number is it? the difference of 9 and three times equals 69. find the number
Mazyrski [523]
Consider the number as 'n' (for now)
3n - 9 = 69
3n = 69 + 9
3n = 78
n = 78/3
n = 26
Therefore, The number is 26

Which of the following is the equation of a line that passed though the points (2,5) and (4,3)
STatiana [176]

The correct answer is C as it has the same line of equation. We can make this clear by verifying that these two points make the same equation or not. So as we can see if we calculate the gradient using the formula y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.

As we now know that the gradient is -1. We can simply put any one point in the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1) to get the line of equation. WHen we calculate the line of equation it come out to be y = -x + 7

Whats slope intercept form for 2x- 5y=10
damaskus [11]

Answer:

y=-2/5x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you put x to the other side of the equation so you get y alone, getting the equation of -5y=-2x+10. In order to just have y on one side, you need to divide the whole equation by -5. This leads to the final answer of y=-2/5x-2.
