Answer:

Shortstop =$3,000,000;

ace pitcher = $21,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amount earned by shortstop = s

Then, amount earned by ace pitcher = 7 times amount earned by shortstop = (7 × s) = 7s

Total amount Paid = $24,000,000

Amount earned by each player :

s + 7s = 24,000,000

8s = $24,000,000

s = 24,000,000 / 8

s = 3,000,000

Hence,

Salary earned by shortstop = $3,000,000

Salary earned by ace pitcher = (7 * 3,000,000) = $21,000,000

Draw the graph of f(x) = (x − 1)2 − 2. Start by creating a table of ordered pairs for the function. Then plot the points from th
pogonyaev

The attached graph represents the graph of f(x) = (x - 1)^2 - 2

<h3>How to plot the graph?</h3>

The equation is given as:

f(x) = (x - 1)^2 - 2

Next, we set x to -2, -1, 0, 1 and 2.

So, we have:

f(-2) = (-2 - 1)^2 - 2 = 7

f(-1) = (-1 - 1)^2 - 2 = 2

f(0) = (0 - 1)^2 - 2 = -1

f(1) = (1 - 1)^2 - 2 = -2

f(2) = (2 - 1)^2 - 2 = -1

This means that the table of values is

x      f(x)

-2    7

-1    2

0    -1

1     -2

2    -1

Next, we plot the above points and connect them.

See attachment for the graph of f(x) = (x - 1)^2 - 2

Answer:

I have no idea what sohcahtoa is but:

tan 50.1° = x/5

1.196 = x/5

multiply both sides of the equation by 5:

x = 5.98
