Researchers wanted to estimate how many lizards were living in a nearby wildlife preserve. The researchers went to the preserve

and marked 65 lizards. A few weeks later, they returned to the preserve and counted 480 lizards, of which 40 were marked. To the nearest whole number, what is the best estimate for the lizard population?

The force of gravity on Mars is different than on Earth. The function of the same situation on Mars would be represented by the
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

If thrown up with the same speed, the ball will go highest in Mars, and also it would take the ball longest to reach the maximum and as well to return to the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that the gravity on Mars; surface is less (about just 38%) of the acceleration of gravity on Earth's surface. Then when we use the kinematic formulas:

v=v_0+a\,*\,t\\y-y_0=v_0\,* t + \frac{1}{2} a\,\,t^2

the acceleration (which by the way is a negative number since acts opposite the initial velocity and displacement when we throw an object up on either planet.

Therefore, throwing the ball straight up makes the time for when the object stops going up and starts coming down (at the maximum height the object gets) the following:

v=v_0+a\,*\,t\\0=v_0-g\,*\,t\\t=\frac{v_0}{t}

When we use this to replace the 't" in the displacement formula, we et:

y-y_0=v_0\,* t + \frac{1}{2} a\,\,t^2\\y-y_0=v_0\,(\frac{v_0}{g} )-\frac{g}{2} \,(\frac{v_0}{g} )^2\\y-y_0=\frac{1}{2} \frac{v_0^2}{g}

This tells us that the smaller the value of "g", the highest the ball will go (g is in the denominator so a small value makes the quotient larger)

And we can also answer the question about time, since given the same initial velocity v_0 , the smaller the value of "g", the larger the value for the time to reach the maximum, and similarly to reach the ground when coming back down, since the acceleration is smaller (will take longer in Mars to cover the same distance)

If alpha and beta are the zeroes of the polynomial f(x)= xsquare -8x +gamma such that alpha - beta = 2 find the value of gamma.
Komok [63]

Answer:

Γ = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x² - 8x + Γ

with a = 1, b = - 8 and c = Γ , then

sum of zeros α + β = - \frac{b}{a} = - \frac{-8}{1} = 8

product of zeros = αβ = \frac{c}{a} = Γ

Given α - β = 2 , then

(α - β)² = 2²

α² - 2αβ + β² = 4 → (1)

and

(α + β)² = 8²

α² + 2αβ + β² = 64 → (2)

Add (1) and (2) term by term

2α² + 2β² = 68 ( divide through by 2 )

α² +β² = 34

Substitute α² + β² = 34 into (1)

34 - 2αβ = 4 ( subtract 34 from both sides )

- 2αβ = - 30 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

αβ = 15

Now

αβ = Γ = 15

Thus

f(x) = x² - 8x + 15

Francine has a piece of wood that is five 5 5/12 feet long she uses three 3 1/4 feet of the wood from a science project how much
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

4/3 ft

Corrected question;

Francine has a piece of wood that is five 5/12 feet long she uses three 1/4 feet of the wood from a science project how much for just Francine have left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Francine has a piece of wood that is five 5/12 feet long.

Total amount of wood T = 5 × 5/12 ft = 25/12 ft

she uses three 1/4 feet of the wood from a science project.

Amount of wood Used U = 3 × 1/4 = 3/4 ft

The amount of wood left equals the total amount of wood minus the amount of wood used;

The amount of wood left L = T - U = 25/12 - 3/4

L = 25/12 - 9/12

L = 16/12

L = 4/3 ft
