Doctors have two methods of calculating maximum heart rate. With the first method, maximum heart rate, y, in beats per minute is

y = 220 − x, where x is the person's age. Maximum heart rate with the second method is shown in the table.
Age, x 20 30 40 50 60
Heart rate (bpm), y 194 187 180 173 166


Which method gives the greater maximum heart rate for a 90−year-old?

The method gives the greater heart rate.

Answer:

The second method gives the greater heart rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the second method, the age and heart rate(bpm) are in a linear relationship.

Therefore, the maximum heart rate for a 90-year-old person in the second method is = 194 - (194 - 187)7 = 145 bpm.

{Since, the maximum heart rate in the second method decreases in an A.P. having value at the age of 20 is 194 and it decreases by 7 bpm per 10 years}

Now, in the first method, the maximum heart rate for 90-year-old person is y = 220 - 90 = 130 bpm.

Therefore, the second method gives a greater heart rate. (Answer)

Answer:

<h2>The second method (table) gives the greater heart rate.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

y=220-x

Where x is age.

Now, for x=90, we have

y=220-90=130

The equation gives 130 bpm for a 90-year-old patient.

Now, if we observe the given table, we would find a pattern there. The heart rate decreases by 7 while ages decreases by 10, so

For 60 y/o we have 166 bpm.

For 70 y/o we have 159 bpm.

For 80 y/o we have 152 bpm.

For 90 y/o we have 145 bpm.

If we compare, the second method (table) gives the greater heart rate.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 17° = x/7

(sin 17°) 7 = (x/7)7

x = sin 17° (7)

x = 0.292371704722737 (7)

x = 2.046601933059157

x ≈ 2

What is the value of x?<br><br><br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br><br> _____ units
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the larger triangle.

x               42

---------- = ----------

x+10           42+15

Simplify

x               42

---------- = ----------

x+10           57

Using cross products

57x = 42 (x+10)

Distribute

57x = 42x+420

Subtract 42x from each side

57x-42x = 42x-42x +420

15x = 420

Divide each side by 15

15x/15 = 420/15

x=28

Okay so if the question is asking for the area the answer is 13 times 5 is 65 and 65 divided by 2 is 32.5 so 32.5 is the area of this triangle. If the question is what is x then the answer is 5
I hope this helps! :)
