16 walls in 40 hours
3 walls in h hours

16/40 = 3/h

16h = 40(3)
16h = 120
h=120/16
h=7.5

answer: 3 walls in 7.5 hours

kherson [118]

Answer: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be "4x".

60% gain on 1/2 of them will be:

(1.60 × 2x) = 3.2x - 2x = 1.2x

20% gain on (1/4) of them will be:

(1.2 × x) = 1.2x - x= 0.2x

Total gain 1.2x + 0.2x = 1.4x

Total gain percent= Gain/Original price =1.4x/4x = 0.35 = 35%

SOLVE THE QUESTION BELOW ASAP

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Part A) The graph in the attached figure (see the explanation)

Part B) 16 feet

Part C) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Graph the function

Let

h(t) ----> the height in feet of the ball above the ground

t -----> the time in seconds

we have

$h(t)=-16t^{2}+98$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex is a maximum

To graph the parabola, find the vertex, the intercepts, and the axis of symmetry

Find the vertex

The function is written in vertex form

The vertex is the point (0,98)

Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of the function when the value of t is equal to zero

For t=0

$h(t)=-16(0)^{2}+98$

$h(0)=98$

The y-intercept is the point (0,98)

Find the t-intercepts

The t-intercepts are the values of t when the value of the function is equal to zero

For h(t)=0

$-16t^{2}+98=0$

$t^{2}=\frac{98}{16}$

square root both sides

$t=\pm\frac{\sqrt{98}}{4}$

$t=\pm7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}$

therefore

The t-intercepts are

$(-7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4},0), (7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4},0)$

$(-2.475,0), (2.475,0)$

Find the axis of symmetry

The equation of the axis of symmetry in a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

$x=0$ ----> the y-axis

To graph the parabola, plot the given points and connect them

we have

The vertex is the point $(0,98)$

The y-intercept is the point $(0,98)$

The t-intercepts are $(-2.475,0), (2.475,0)$

The axis of symmetry is the y-axis

The graph in the attached figure

Part B) How far is the artifact fallen from the time t=0 to time t=1

we know that

For t=0

$h(t)=-16(0)^{2}+98$

$h(0)=98\ ft$

For t=1

$h(t)=-16(1)^{2}+98$

$h(1)=82\ ft$

Find the difference

$98\ ft-82\ ft=16\ ft$

Part C) Does the artifact fall the same distance from time t=1 to time t=2 as it does from the time t=0 to time t=1?

we know that

For t=1

$h(t)=-16(1)^{2}+98$

$h(1)=82\ ft$

For t=2

$h(t)=-16(2)^{2}+98$

$h(2)=34\ ft$

Find the difference

$82\ ft-34\ ft=48\ ft$

The artifact fall 48 feet from time t=1 to time t=2 and fall 16 feet from time t=0 to time t=1

therefore

The distance traveled from t=1 to t=2 is greater than the distance traveled from t=0 to t=1

In a study published on January 31, 2011 in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers randomly assigned 1

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective of this test is to know if aerobic exercise modifies hippocampus activity. A random sample of 120 elderly men and women was taken and divided into two groups.

Group 1: Walked around a track three times a week.

Group 2: Did a variety of less aerobic exercises, including yoga and resistance training with bands.

After a year their brains were scanned showing that group 1 had an increase of 2% in their hippocampus and group 2 showed a decrease of 1.4%

a. True, this type of observational study can be the prelude to a more formal statistical study.

b. True, the explanatory variable is "type of exercise", it's the variable that the investigator suspects influence the hippocampus volume.

c. True, the objective of this experiment is to test if there is any modification on hippocampus volume, that's why the volume of the hippocampus was measured, before and after a year of exercise.

d. False, this is an observational study, you cannot establish a causal relationship between the two variables. Just inform you that there seems to be an association. To be able to generalize the results to all elderly population you need a more formal statistical experiment to support your conclusions.

I hope it helps!
