She hit 21 bull’s eyes.

3 0

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

14 bull's eyes (or hits) and 16 misses.  

The 14 hits earned her five points each, or a total of 70 points.  

The 16 misses cost ten points each, or a total of 160 points lost.  

14 + 16 = 30  

70 - 160 = -90  

SOLUTION:  

points = 5H - 10M = -90 where H = hits and M = misses  

tries = H + M = 30 therefore  

H = 30 - M  

and 5(30 - M) - 10M = -90  

150 - 5M -10M + 90 = 0  

240 -15M = 0  

15M = 240  

M =16  

H = (30 - M) = 16

What is the derivative of te^-t/2
salantis [7]
Y = t*e^(-t/2)

y' = t' [e^(-t/2)] + t [e^(-t/2)]' = e^(-t/2) + t[e^(-t/2)][-1/2]=

y' = [e^(-t/2)] [1 - t/2] = (1/2)[e^(-t/2)] [2 - t] = - (1/2) [e^-t/2)] [t -2]

Estimate square root 250 to two decimal points
Juli2301 [7.4K]
OK, the square root of 250 is 15.811 . . . 
but since this can't be expressed as a decimal for your purposes, let's try factoring. Since 250 ends in a zero, only numbers 5 or 0 or those ending in 5 or 0 could be factors. 
The square root of 250 can be factored into the square root of 25 and the square root of 10. 
The square root of 25 is exactly 5, and the exact square root of 10 is another decimal, so your simplified answer can be expressed as 5 times the square root of 10.
