Answer:
x₁ > x₂
Step-by-step explanation:
Both actions imply a parable trajectories, since both are projectile shot cases.
Let´s call x₁ maximum distance in the first case
The maximum height is just in the middle of the curve, therefore x₁ the maximum horizontal distance is equal to 60 feet.
In the second case, the parable curve is modeled by:
y = x₂*( 0.08 - 0.002x₂) or y = 0.08*x₂ - 0.002*x₂²
A second degree equation, solving for x₂ and dismissing the value x₂ = 0
we get:
y = 0 ⇒ x₂*( 0.08 - 0.002x₂) = 0 x₂ = 0
And 0,08 - 0.002*x₂ = 0
- 0.002*x₂ = - 0.08
x₂ = 0.08/0.002
x₂ = 40 f
Then x₁ > x₂
slope is change in y over change in x
use 2 points from the table so -3,-21 and -6,-39
change in Y: -39 - -21 = -18
change in x = -6 - -3 = -3
slope = -18/-3 = 6
slope = 6
The error is in the second step they subtracted 3 from both sides but it was a 3x, which you can not do.
Correction.
9x+18+3x=1
12x+18=1
12x=-17
x=-17/12
Answer:
360
Step-by-step explanation: 360 is the least
Answer:
The eighth of an inch scale measures more precisely.
Step-by-step explanation:
An eighth of an inch means that one inch is divided into 8 equal lengths on the scale i.e. the minimum length that can be measured is 
inch.
Again a fourth of an inch means that one inch is divided into 4 equal lengths on the scale i.e. the minimum length that can be measured is 
inch.
Therefore, the eighth of an inch scale measures more precisely as it can measure more small measurements. (Answer)
