A world record was set for the men’s 100-m dash in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing by Usain Bolt of Jamaica. Bolt "coasted" ac

ross the finish line with a time of 9.69 s. If we assume that Bolt accelerated for 3.00 s to reach his maximum speed, and maintained that speed for the rest of the race, calculate his maximum speed and his acceleration. (b) During the same Olympics, Bolt also set the world record in the 200-m dash with a time of 19.30 s. Using the same assumptions as for the 100-m dash, what was his maximum speed for this race?

Answer:

a) v = 12.21m/s

a = 4.07 m/s²

b)v = 11.24m/s

a =  3.75 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Dividing the moviment into two parts:

I - With acceleration

v = v₀ + at

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

  • v₀ = 0
  • s₀ = 0
  • a = ?
  • v = ?
  • t = 3s
  • s = x

v = v₀ + at

v = 3a ⇒ a = v/3

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

x = v/3.3²/2

x = 3v/2

II - Uniform

s = s₀ + vt

s = 100

s₀ = x

v = v

t = 9.69 - 3 = 6.69s

s = s₀ + vt

100 = x + v*6.69

100 = x + 6.69v

As x = 3v/2

100 = 3v/2 + 6.69v

100 = 1.5v + 6.69v

100 = 8.19v

v = 12.21m/s

a = v/3 = 4.07 m/s²

b) Dividing the moviment into two parts:

I - With acceleration

v = v₀ + at

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

  • v₀ = 0
  • s₀ = 0
  • a = ?
  • v = ?
  • t = 3s
  • s = x

v = v₀ + at

v = 3a ⇒ a = v/3

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

x = v/3.3²/2

x = 3v/2

II - Uniform

s = s₀ + vt

s = 200

s₀ = x

v = v

t = 19.30 - 3 = 16.30s

s = s₀ + vt

200 = x + v*16.3

100 = x + 16.3v

As x = 3v/2

200 = 3v/2 + 16.3v

200 = 1.5v + 16.3v

200 = 17.8v

v = 11.24m/s

a = v/3 = 3.75 m/s²

A toy manufacturer wants to know how many new toys children buy each year. A sample of 1492 children was taken to study their pu
julia-pushkina [17]

By assuming the standard deviation of population 2.2 the confidence interval is 8.67 toys,8.94 toys.

Given sample size of 1492 children,99% confidence interval , sample mean of 8.8, population standard deviation=2.2.

This type of problems can be solved through z test and in z test we have to first find the z score and then p value from normal distribution table.

First we have to find the value of α which can be calculated as  under:

α=(1-0.99)/2=0.005

p=1-0.005=0.995

corresponding z value will be 2.575 for p=0.995 .

Margin of error=z*x/d

where x is mean and d is standard deviation.

M=2.575*2.2/\sqrt{1492}

=0.14

So the lower value will be x-M

=8.8-0.14

=8.66

=8.67 ( after rounding)

The upper value will be x+M

=8.8+0.14

=8.94

Hence the confidence interval will be 8.67 toys and 8.94 toys.

Please help me solve this equation and show the work show me how you got the answer
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: k=3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for k, you want to isolate k.

\frac{2}{5} (5k+35)-8=12            [add both sides by 8]

\frac{2}{5} (5k+35)=20                  [multiply both sides by 5/2]

5k+35=50                       [subtract both sides by 35]

5k=15                               [divide both sides by 5]

k=3

Now, we know that k=3.

Pls someone help these answers are on chegg so if u have a subscription pls answer these ill make u brainliest ! Below is a tabl
aivan3 [116]

The table is not clear, so i have attached it.

Answer:

z statistic is -2.26

This is less than our alpha level,therefore we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportion of homeowners between first generation and second generation Hispanic Americans

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached table, we can see that;

first-generation hispanic americans; (N = 899 and percentage = 43%

second-generation hispanic americans; N = 351 and percentage = 50%

first-generation asian americans; (N = 2,684 and percentage = 58%

second-generation asian americans; N = 566 and percentage = 51%

Z-score formula in this case is;

z = (p1^ - p2^)/(√(p^(1 - p^)((1/n1) + (1/n2))

Where;

p^ = (p1 + p2)/(n1 + n2)

For, hispanic americans we have;

p1^ = 0.43 × 899 = 386.57

p2^ = 0.5 × 351 = 175.5

p^ = (386.57 + 175.5)/(899 + 351)

p^ = 0.45

Thus;

z = (0.43 - 0.5)/(√(0.45(1 - 0.45)((1/899) + (1/351))

z = -2.26

From z-distribution table, we have;

P-value = 0.01191

Since we have 2 samples, then probability = 2 × 0.01191 = 0.02382

This is less than our alpha level of 0.05,therefore we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportion of homeowners between first generation and second generation Hispanic Americans.

Find the distance between a and b. a =  14/5 ,   b =  112/65
Sergio039 [100]
Make a common denominator

14/5 x 13 = 182/65

182-112 = 70

the distance between the two is 70

hope this helps
