Given:

The height of a golf ball is represented by the equation:

y=x-0.04x^2

To find:

The maximum height of of Anna's golf ball.

Solution:

We have,

y=x-0.04x^2

Differentiate with respect to x.

y'=1-0.04(2x)

y'=1-0.08x

For critical values, y'=0.

1-0.08x=0

-0.08x=-1

x=\dfrac{-1}{-0.08}

x=12.5

Differentiate y' with respect to x.

y''=(0)-0.08(1)

y''=-0.08

Since double derivative is negative, the function is maximum at  x=12.5.

Substitute x=12.5 in the given equation to get the maximum height.

y=(12.5)-0.04(12.5)^2

y=12.5-0.04(156.25)

y=12.5-6.25

y=6.25

Therefore, the maximum height of of Anna's golf ball is 6.25 units.

On a Sunday night, there are four people on a bus. The bus has five stops left before it end sits route. Suppose each person wil
allochka39001 [22]

There are two possible outcomes of this experiment either success p or failure q. It has a given number of trials and all trials are independent therefore it is<u><em> binomial probability distribution.</em></u>

1-  5 ways

2- 5/16

3- 1/16

4- 1/16

In the question given above n= 5 p =1/2 q= 1/2  r is the given point.

  1. <u>Part 1:</u>

The number of ways in which different people get off the bus can be calculated using combinations since the order is not essential. Therefore

nCr= 5C4= 5 ways

<u>2. Part 2:</u>

The probability that all four people get off the bus on the first stop is given by :

P (x= 1)= 5C1 (1/2)^0(1/2)^4= 5(1/2)^4= 5/16

<u>3. Part 3:-</u> The probability that all four people get off the bus on the same stop.

P (x= x)= 5C5 (1/2)^0(1/2)^4= 1(1/2)^4= 1/16

<u>4. Part 4-</u> The probability that <u><em>exactly three of the four</em></u> people get off the bus on the same stop.

P (x= x)= 5C5 (1/2)^3(1/2)^1= 1(1/2)^4= 1/16

What is a correct first step in solving the inequality –4(3 – 5x)≥ –6x + 9?
Maksim231197 [3]
Hello,
 the first step should be to distribue:
-4(3-5x)= -12+20x

Teh resolution may be:

-4(3-5x)>=-6x+9
==>-12+20x>=-6x+9
==>20x+6x>=9+12
==>26x>21
==>x>=21/26

But an other way may be used:

-4(3-5x)>=-6x+9
==>3-5x<= -6x/(-4)+9/(-4)
==>-5x-3/2 x<=-9/4 -3

==>-13/2 x <=-21/4

==>x>= -21/4 *(-2/13)
==>x>=21/(2*13)
==>x>=21/26
