Mathematics
1 answer:
Viktor [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

-.6

Step-by-step explanation:

-2.1 - x = -1 1/2

Change the fraction to a decimal

-2.1 -x = - 1.5

Add 2.1 to each side

-2.1 -x+2.1 = -1.5 +2.1

-x = .6

Multiply each side by -1

x = -.6

The function y = -16x2 + 1500 gives a parachute jumper's height y in feet
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so the question is asking about the time from 1500 feet to 1100 feet.  How long did they fall, w/o a parachute.    aka   "freefall"   so,   at 1500 feet the jumper is really at time zero.   so, plug in to the formula

1100 = -16x^{2} +1500  

( x represents seconds so i'll change it to t so we know it's time )  

1100 = -16t^{2} + 1500

now we can solve for t  , to see how long the jumper falls

-400 = - 16t^{2}      ( subtracting 1500 from both sides of equation )

25 = t^{2}      ( dividing both sides by  -16 )

oh.. look at how nice that turns out.. :)

\sqrt{25} = t  ( take the square root on both sides )

5 = t    

the jumper fell for 5 seconds to get to 1100 feet

A quarter back completes 29% of his passes. We want to observe this quarterback during one game to see how many pass attempts he
Ann [662]

Answer: P12* = 0.0164 or 1.64%

Therefore, the probability that it takes more than 12 attempts before he completes a pass is 0.0164 or 1.64%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The quarterback's pass accuracy P= 29% = 0.29

The probability of not completing a particular pass P*

= 1 - 0.29 = 0.71

the probability that it takes more than 12 attempts before he completes a pass implies that the quarterback will not complete his first 12 pass attempts.

The probability that he will not complete the first 12 pass

P12* = (P*)^12

P12* = (0.71) ^12

P12* = 0.0164 or 1.64%

Therefore, the probability that it takes more than 12 attempts before he completes a pass is 0.0164 or 1.64%

a wildlife photographer photographs a crocodile and then paddles against a river current for 6 km. Then, hoping to photograph a
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

  • 5 km/h or 6 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let the speed of the boat be x
  • Speed against the current in the river is x - 2

<u>Time in the river:</u>

  • 6/(x - 2)

<u>Time in the lake:</u>

  • 15/x

<u>The difference:</u>

  • 6/(x - 2) = 15/x - 1

Solve for x to find the speed of the boat

<u>Multiply both sides by x(x - 2) to clear the fraction:</u>

  • 6x = 15(x - 2) - x(x - 2)
  • 6x = 15x - 30 - x² + 2x
  • x² - 11x + 30 = 0
  • (x - 5)(x - 6) =0
  • x -5 = 0, x - 6 = 0
  • x = 5 km/h, x = 6 km/h
