Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

PERT estimate is a measuring strategy that is based on a weighted average. It is used in measuring the uncertainty and risk via three estimates to determine an estimated likelihood for a project's cost or period of completion.

The formula is (O + 4M + P) ÷ 6

Where P is the most pessimistic = 29

M is the most likely = 12

O is the most optimistic = 10

Hence we have (10 + [4*12]+ 29) ÷ 6

= (10 + 48 + 29) ÷ 6

= 87÷6 = 14.5 ≈ 15

Rounded figure is equal to 15.

Hence the final answer to the question is 15

fredd [130]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The projectile motion of Jenny's dive can be represented by -at^2 + v_0t + h_0 where a is acceleration, v_0 is velocity, t is time, and h_0 is initial height.

Jenny's vertical height above the water is represented by -16x^2+12x+10. 10 is h_0 and is Jenny's initial height.

Solve the following quadratic equation:
Advocard [28]

Answer:

-3.5 or -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2+19x+40=-2

2x^2+19x+40+2=0

2x^2+19x+42=0

2x^2+(12+7)x+42=0

2x^2+12x+7x+42=0

2x(x+6)+7(x+6)=0

(x+6)(2x+7)=0

either,

x+6=0

x=-6

or,

2x+7=0

2x=-7

x=-7/2

x=-3.5

Use the information given to enter an equation in standard form.
grin007 [14]

Answer:

6x - 5y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Your FIRST goal is to fill out y = mx + b with the values of m (your slope) and b (your y-intercept). First, find m by dividing the change in y in the two points given by their change in x. (43 - 31)/(35-25) = 12/10 = 6/5. Plug this in immediately for a "placeholder equation" of y = 6/5x + b, which you can plug either of your points into and solve for b.

43 = 6/5(35) + b

43 = 42 + b

1 = b

Your SLOPE-INTERCEPT equation is y = 6/5x + 1. However, you were asked for standard form. This means you must convert into ax + by = c, where a b and c are all whole numbers, and a is positive.

y = 6/5x + 1

-6/5x + y = 1

6/5x - y = -1

6x - 5y = -5, and this is your final answer.

Let me know if you need a more in-depth explanation on any part of this!
