Answer:

2\sqrt{55}\text{ m/s or }\approx 14.8\text{m/s}

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical component of the initial launch can be found using basic trigonometry. In any right triangle, the sine of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse. Let the vertical component at launch be y. The magnitude of 40\text{ m/s} will be the hypotenuse, and the relevant angle is the angle to the horizontal at launch. Since we're given that the angle of elevation is 60^{\circ}, we have:

\sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{y}{40},\\y=40\sin 60^{\circ},\\y=20\sqrt{3}(Recall that \sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})

Now that we've found the vertical component of the velocity and launch, we can use kinematics equation v_f^2=v_i^2+2a\Delta y to solve this problem, where v_f/v_i is final and initial velocity, respectively, a is acceleration, and \Delta y is distance travelled. The only acceleration is acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8\:\mathrm{m/s^2}. However, since the projectile is moving up and gravity is pulling down, acceleration should be negative, represent the direction of the acceleration.

What we know:

  • v_i=20\sqrt{3}\text{ m/s}
  • a=-9.8\:\mathrm{m/s^2}
  • \Delta y =50\text{ m}

Solving for v_f:

v_f^2=(20\sqrt{3})^2+2(-9.8)(50),\\v_f^2=1200-980,\\v_f^2=220,\\v_f=\sqrt{220}=\boxed{2\sqrt{55}\text{ m/s}}

The Washington, DC, region has one of the fastest-growing foreclosure rates in the nation, as 15,613 homes went into foreclosure
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

a) 0.6226 = 62.26% probability that in a given year, fewer than 2 out of 100 houses in the Washington, DC area will go up for foreclosure.

b) 0.7837 = 78.37% probability that in a given year, fewer than 2 out of 100 houses in the nation will go up for foreclosure.

c) The proportion of foreclosures in the Nation is lower than in Washington, which means that with a sample size of 100, it is likely to have a small number(fewer than 2) of foreclosures than Washington DC.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each home, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it goes into foreclosure, or it does not. The probability of a home going into foreclosure is independent of other homes. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

a. What is the probability that in a given year, fewer than 2 out of 100 houses in the Washington, DC area will go up for foreclosure?

The foreclosure rate is 1.31% for the Washington, DC area, which means that p = 0.0131

We wanto to find, with n = 100:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{100,0}.(0.0131)^{0}.(0.9869)^{100} = 0.2675

P(X = 1) = C_{100,1}.(0.0131)^{1}.(0.9869)^{99} = 0.3551

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.2675 + 0.3551 = 0.6226

0.6226 = 62.26% probability that in a given year, fewer than 2 out of 100 houses in the Washington, DC area will go up for foreclosure.

b. What is the probability that in a given year, fewer than 2 out of 100 houses in the nation will go up for foreclosure?

Foreclosure rate of 0.87% for the nation, which means that p = 0.0087. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{100,0}.(0.0087)^{0}.(0.9913)^{100} = 0.4174

P(X = 1) = C_{100,1}.(0.0087)^{1}.(0.9913)^{99} = 0.3663

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.4174 + 0.3663 = 0.7837

0.7837 = 78.37% probability that in a given year, fewer than 2 out of 100 houses in the nation will go up for foreclosure.

c. Comment on the above findings.

The proportion of foreclosures in the Nation is lower than in Washington, which means that with a sample size of 100, it is likely to have a small number(fewer than 2) of foreclosures than Washington DC.

Solve these two equations using the Addition Method (also known as the elimination method).
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

(-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

5/2(3/4x + 1/3y = -1/2)

1/2x - 5/6y = -7/2

15/8x + 5/6y = -5/4

19/8x = -19/4

x = -2

1/2(-2) - 5/6y = -7/2

-1 -5/6y = -7/2

-5/6y = -5/2

y = 3

Write an inequality to represent the graph below.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter C

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Find two points of the line

A ( 0, -3)   B ( 2, 2)

2.- Find the slope of the line

    m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{2 + 3}{2 - 0}

    m = \frac{5}{2}

3.- Find the equation of the line

    y - y1 = m(x - x1)

    y + 3 = 5/2(x - 0)

    y + 3 = 5/2 x

    y = 5/2 x - 3

4.- Convert the line to an inequality, we want the upper area so use ">"

    y > 5/2 x - 3
