Answer:

Rhian did better in the Math test.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Rhian scored 14 out of 17 in a Math test. In the English test she scored 31 out of 39.

To find: In which test did she do better?

Solution:

We have,

Rhian scored 14 out of 17 in a Math test.

Rhian scored 31 out of 39 in an English test.

So, first we need to find the percentage of the marks scored.

Percentage in the Math test =\frac{14}{17}\times100=82.35 \%.

Percentage in the English test =\frac{31}{39}\times100= 79.49\%.    

Clearly, the percentage in the Math test is greater than the percentage in the English test.

So, Rhian did better in the Math test.

here's a graph of a linear function. write the equation that describes that function. express it in slope intercept form. HELP!
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

y=\frac{3}{4}x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

So when you express a linear function in slope-intercept form it's given in the form of y=mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. This is because as x increases by 1, the y-value will increase by m (because multiplication), and since the slope is defined as rise/run, the rise will be m, and run will be 1, giving you a slope of m/1 or m. The reason b is the y-intercept, is because whenever the linear function crosses the y-axis, the x-value will always be 0. Meaning that mx will be 0 because m * 0 will equal 0... and that leaves b by it self, so b will determine the y-intercept.

So if you look at the graph, the linear function crosses the y-axis as (0, 2) so the value of b will be 2. This gives you the equation y=mx+2.

Now to calculate the slope, we can take any two points and see how much the rise was and how much the run was. It can also be more formally defined in the equation: y=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. So let's take the points (0, 2) and (8, 8). As you can see the x-value increases by 8 or "ran" by 8, and the y-value increased by 6. So the rise over run in this case is 6/8 which can simplified as 3/4. That is the slope. This gives you the complete equation of: y=\frac{3}{4}x+2

A particle is moving along the x-axis so that its position at t ≥ 0 is given by s(t)=(t)ln(5t). Find the acceleration of the par
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

a(\frac{1}{5e})=5e

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given equation for position function as

s(t)=tln(5t)

Since, we have to find acceleration

For finding acceleration , we will find second derivative

s'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}\left(t\ln \left(5t\right)\right)

=\frac{d}{dt}\left(t\right)\ln \left(5t\right)+\frac{d}{dt}\left(\ln \left(5t\right)\right)t

=1\cdot \ln \left(5t\right)+\frac{1}{t}t

s'(t)=\ln \left(5t\right)+1

now, we can find derivative again

s''(t)=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\ln \left(5t\right)+1\right)

=\frac{d}{dt}\left(\ln \left(5t\right)\right)+\frac{d}{dt}\left(1\right)

=\frac{1}{t}+0

a(t)=\frac{1}{t}

Firstly, we will set velocity =0

and then we can solve for t

v(t)=s'(t)=\ln \left(5t\right)+1=0

we get

t=\frac{1}{5e}

now, we can plug that into acceleration

and we get

a(\frac{1}{5e})=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{5e}}

a(\frac{1}{5e})=5e

Suppose a railroad rail is 3 kilometers and it expands on a hot day by 15 centimeters in length. Approximately how many meters w
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Answer:  13.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For small angles, x, in radians,

tan(x) ≈ sin(x) = x

Use this to create an approximate diagram for the problem as shown in the figure below.

The actual deflected shape is parabolic, but it is approximated by an isosceles triangle with small equal angles.

The extend length is 3 km + 12 cm, which is 

3000 + 0.12 = 3000.12 m

Half of the extended length is 1500.06 m

Let h+  the rise of the center of the rail above ground.

From the Pythagorean theorem, obtain

h² + 1500² = 1500.6²

h² = 1500.06² - 1500² = 180.004

h = 13.4 m, which is about 0.9% of the original length.
