30inches increased by 30 percent

A ball is thrown into the air. The path it takes is modeled by the equation: -3t+24t = h, where t is the time in seconds and h i

astra-53 [7]

Given:

The given equation is:

$-3t^2+24t=h$

Where, t is the time in seconds and h is the height of the ball above the ground, measured in feet.

To find:

The inequality to model when the height of the ball is at least 36 feet above the ground. Then find time taken by ball to reach at or above 36 feet.

Solution:

We have,

$-3t^2+24t=h$

The height of the ball is at least 36 feet above the ground. It means $h\geq 36$ .

$-3t^2+24t\geq 36$

$-3t^2+24t-36\geq 0$

$-3(t^2-8t+12)\geq 0$

Splitting the middle term, we get

$-3(t^2-6t-2t+12)\geq 0$

$-3(t(t-6)-2(t-6))\geq 0$

$-3(t-2)(t-6)\geq 0$

The critical points are:

$-3(t-2)(t-6)=0$

$t=2,6$

These two points divide the number line in 3 intervals $(-\infty,2),(2,6),(6,\infty)$ .

Intervals Check point $-3(t-2)(t-6)\geq 0$ Result

$(-\infty,2)$ 0 $(-)(-)(-)=(-)$ False

$(2,6)$ 4 $(-)(+)(-)=+>0$ True

$(6,\infty)$ 8 $(-)(+)(+)=(-)$ False

The inequality is true for (2,6) and the sign of inequality is $\geq$ . So, the ball is above 36 feet between 2 to 6 seconds.

$6-2=4$

Therefore, the required inequality is $-3t^2+24t\geq 36$ and the ball is 36 feet above for 4 seconds.

Discuss transformation of linear equations in two sentences

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

transformations are used to to graph the linear function in the form of f(x)=mx+b f ( x ) = m x + b. google says to "Graph f(x)=x f ( x ) = x . Vertically stretch or compress the graph by a factor |m|. Shift the graph up or down b units."

Madison's family traveled 5 7 of the distance to her uncle's house on Saturday. They traveled 1 2 of the remaining distance on S

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The fraction of the total distance to her uncle's house that was traveled on Sunday is 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance from Madison house to her uncle is 1 unit

She travels 5/7th of the total distance on Saturday

Remaining distance = $1-\frac{5}{7} = \frac{2}{7}$

She travels 1/2 of the remaining distance on Sunday.

Hence, the fraction of the total distance to her uncle's house that was traveled on Sunday is 1/2 * 2/7 = 1/7

Kamil and Sean share some money in the ratio 3:5. Sean gets $56 more than Kamil. How much do they get each?

liq [111]

Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).

Kamil and Sean are in the ratio: 3:5

That means: x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5

x / (x + 56) = 3/5

5*x = 3*(x + 56)

5x = 3*x + 3*56

5x = 3x + 168

5x - 3x = 168

2x = 168

x = 168 / 2

x = 84

Therefore Kamil had, x = 84, and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 = 140

Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140

Question 9 Of 1000 randomly selected cases of lung cancer, 841 resulted in death within 10 years. Construct a 95% two-sided conf

givi [52]

Answer:

0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample size (n) = 1000

Positive lung cancer = 841

n(p) = 841, p(p) = 841/1000 = 0.841

n(1 - p) = 1000 - 841 = 159

1 - p = 0.159

95% confidence interval

For a 95% confidence interval : z = 1.96

P ± z√p(1-p) / n

0.841 ± 1.96 * √0.841(0.159) / 1000

0.841 - (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.818335344

0.841 + (1.96 * 0.0115636) = 0.863664656

0.818335 ≤ p ≤ 0.86366
