15/x=75/100
15/x=3/4
times 4x both sides
4*15=3x
60=3x
divide both sides by 3
20=x
Here we're applying a basic physics rule for vertical motion where the only pull on the object is gravity.
This rule has the form
h(t) = h + v t + (1/2)a*t^2
o o
To adapt this rule to this particular question replace h with 0, as the
o
upward path of the object begins at 0 ft. Replace v with +15 ft/sec.
o
Replace "a" with (-32.2 ft/(sec^2); this is the acceleration due to gravity.
Then we have the following, with the label F(t):
F(t) = 0 + (15 ft/sec)t + (1/2)(-32.2 ft)/(sec^2), or
F(t) = 15t - 16.1t^2. Thus, Choice D is correct.
Please note: To avoid confusion, please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:
F(t) = -16t^2 + 15t
Answer:
A. 36
B. 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for the first equation, we could represent the hot dogs as h(1.75-.50), since they are losing .50 cents for each hot dog, <em>h,</em> they make.
Since they want to know how many hot dogs they have to sell to equal the amount of money they spent, we can represent it as an equal sign.
Now all we have to do is add the constants. Add 12 to our overall equation and subtract 57, since the <u>received</u> $12 in donations and <u>lost</u> $57.
Our equation is 12+h1.75=57+.5h We can just put all of the negative numbers on one side and the positive numbers on the other to find out when they will be equal.
First, subtract 12 from 57.
h1.75=45+.5h
Now subtract .5h from both sides.
h1.25=45
Finally, divide both sides by 1.25.
h=36.
They will have to sell 36 hot dogs.
If they want to sell halve the hotdogs for the same price, simply multiply the current price by 2.
The hotdogs will have to cost $3.5.
Hope this helps!
What data? - I would say that his "data" showed that each prize has a likelihood of 1/4 to be won
