Answer: 12.0 ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>From the given question, we recall the following,</em>

<em>A basketball player shoots the ball with an initial velocity  = 17.1 ft/sec</em>

<em>With an angle of 45.6 degrees with the horizontal.</em>

<em>Now,</em>

<em>Let us find the initial horizontal component of the vector that represents the velocity of the ball.</em>

<em>cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse </em>

<em>Cos 45.6 degrees = 17.1 ft/sec</em>

<em>Let find the value of x</em>

<em>x = 17.1 cos 45.6 degrees= 11.96</em>

<em>To the nearest tenth is now = 12.0 ft/sec</em>

The horizontal component is:

17.1cos45.6≈11.96 so

vx=12.0 ft/sec  (to nearest tenth ft/s)

Maria leaves her house and walks north for 6 blocks. She then turns and walks directly east for 8 more blocks
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

36+64=100 100 to the square root is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not giving a diagram just draw a triangle and make the base of it 8 and the length of it 6 but the diagonal part 10

It's the pythagorean theorum. a^2 + b^2 = c^2

^2= to the 2nd power. or squared.

In this case it really doesnt matter which one you label for this part of math.

so 8^2 + 6^2 = C^2 where C is the shortest distance between the houses.

and 8 and 6 were the lengths given.

64+36=100

100's square root is 10 because 10^2 is 100 or 10*10 is 100. If you dont know what squaring is.

Its multiplying something by that something once so 1 squared is 1 because its 1*1 you are multiplying it once 2 squared or 2^2 is 4 because 2*2 is 4 3 squared or 3^2 is 9 because 3*3 is 9. 4 squared is 16 because 4*4 is 16. and if you did 2 to the power of 3 of 2 cubed it would be 8 because 2*2*2 is 8.

Complete question :

Put these fraction in order of size smallest to largest : 7/10, 2/3, 4/5, 11/15

Answer:

2/3, 7/10, 11/ 15, 4 /5

Step-by-step explanation:

In other to make solving the question easier, we can convert the fractions to decimal in other to make comparison easier :

7/10 = 0.7

2/3 = 0.667

4 /5 = 0.8

11 /15 = 0.733

Using the placement or how the numbers will appear to the right of a number line ;

0.667, 0.7, 0.733, 0.8

Thus we have :

2/3, 7/10, 11/ 15, 4 /5

Log(ab)=log(a)+log(b)
log_a(a)=1
so

log_3(3(x+1)(x+2))=log_3(3)+log_3(x+1)+log(x+2)=1+log_3(x+1)+log_3(x+2)

! + 3 − 5 = 0; by completing the square
mylen [45]

Answer:

x = 1.19258 and x = −4.19258

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

x^2+3x-5=0

Keep x terms on the left and move  the constant to the right side  by adding it on both sides.

x^2+3x=5

Take half of the x term and square it.

(3\times \dfrac{1}{2})^2=\dfrac{9}{4}

then add the result to both sides

x^2+3x+\dfrac{9}{4}=5+\dfrac{9}{4}\\\\(x+\dfrac{3}{2})^2=\dfrac{29}{4}\\\\(x+\dfrac{3}{2})=\sqrt{\dfrac{29}{4}}\\\\x=\dfrac{-3}{2}+\sqrt{\dfrac{29}{4}}\\\\x=\dfrac{-3}{2}-\sqrt{\dfrac{29}{4}}

So,

x = 1.19258 and x = −4.19258

Hence, this is the required solution.
