Zeno jumped 8 meters. Then he jumped half as far again (4 meters). Then he jumped half as far again (2 meters). So after 3 jumps

, he was 8 + 4 + 2 = 14 meters from his starting place.

Answer:

  15 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeno's last jump was 2 meters, so another jump half as far adds 1 meter to the 14 m total.

After 4 jumps, Zeno would have jumped 15 meters from his starting place.

<em>Comment on the question</em>

The given distances give a total "after 3 jumps." The question asks for a total "after 4 jumps." It is not clear whether that is 4 jumps total, or 4 more jumps. In the above, we have assumed it is 4 jumps total.

7/2 = 3.5

3.5/2 = 1.75

1.75/2 = 0.875

Given sinx= −3/5 when 3π/2 &lt; x &lt; 2π, find tan x/2
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

B -⅓

Step-by-step explanation:

sinx = -3/5

Adjacent² = 5² - 3² = 16

Adjacent = 4

tan(x) = -3/4

-¾ = 2tan(½x)/[1 - tan²(½x)]

-3 + 3tan²(½x) = 8tan(½x)

3tan²(½x) - 8tan(½x) - 3 = 0

tan(½x) = 3, -⅓

How can you use equations to model problems about unknown numbers?
Aleks04 [339]

To set up or model a linear equation to fit a real-world application, we must first determine the known quantities and define the unknown quantity as a variable. Then, we begin to interpret the words as mathematical expressions using mathematical symbols. Let us use the car rental example above. In this case, a known cost, such as $0.10/mi, is multiplied by an unknown quantity, the number of miles driven. Therefore, we can write

0.10

x

. This expression represents a variable cost because it changes according to the number of miles driven.

If a quantity is independent of a variable, we usually just add or subtract it according to the problem. As these amounts do not change, we call them fixed costs. Consider a car rental agency that charges $0.10/mi plus a daily fee of $50. We can use these quantities to model an equation that can be used to find the daily car rental cost

C

.

C

=

0.10

x

+

50

When dealing with real-world applications, there are certain expressions that we can translate directly into math. The table lists some common verbal expressions and their equivalent mathematical expressions.
