Answer:

C) Descend 84 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

162+207=369

369-285=84ft above starting point, this means that he must descend 84 feet to reach the starting point.

The purchasing director of a bank has just received a shipment of 100 printers. She has been told that the shipment includes 5 d
zaharov [31]
Since there is a 95% chance that you get two printers right, then you simply square the decimal equivalent which is .95 (Hence, you do .95^2). You will get .9025 (or 90.25%). 

For letter b, you simply subtract .9025 from 1. 
ans = 1-.9025
ans = .0975 (or 9.75%)

So the answer to B) would be there is a 9.75% chance the probability of a shipment can be rejected.

x= -0.25 and 1.25

x = -0.5 and  1.5

x = 0 and 1

x = -0.375 and 1.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of the curve is

y = 4x^2 -4x-1

(i)

First equation 4x^2 -4x-1 =0

Here y = 0

In  x-axis the value of y = 0

The graph cuts the x-axis at(-0.25,0) and (1.25,0)

So, x= -0.25 and 1.25

(ii)

4x^2 -4x-1 =2

here y = 2

The line y= 2 cuts the curve at (-0.5,2) and (1.5,2)

So, x = -0.5 and  1.5

Given equation of the curve is

y= 3x^2-3x -1

(i)

3x^2-3x +2 =2

\Leftrightarrow  3x^2-3x -1 = -1

Here y = -1

The line y = -1  cuts the curve at (0,-1) and (1,-1)

So x = 0 and 1

(ii)

3x^2-3x -1 =x+1

Here y = x+1

The line y -x =1 cuts the curve at (-0.375,0.5) and (1.625,2).

So x = -0.375 and 1.625
