Answer:

125.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number = 125.3546

Required

Round to 1 decimal place

Up till the first decimal place, the number is:

Number = 125.3

The digit after .3 is 5

The conditions for approximation are:

  • If n > 4, approximate to 1
  • Else: approximate to 0

In this case: 5 > 4, so we approximate to 1

Add this "1" to the last digit of 125.3. This becomes 125.4

<em>Hence: when the number is approximated to 1 decimal place, the digit is 125.4</em>

Find the distance from the point (9, –2) to the line y = 3∕2x + 4. Choices are in the attachment...
zimovet [89]
<h3>Answer: Choice B)  \sqrt{117} \text{ units}</h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

y = (3/2)x + 4

2y = 3x + 8 .... multiply both sides by 2

0 = 3x + 8 - 2y

3x-2y+8 = 0

The original equation transforms to 3x-2y+8 = 0. It is in the form Ax+By+C = 0. We see that A = 3, B = -2, C = 8. This form is very useful to help find the distance from a point to this line.

The formula we will use is

d = \frac{|A*p+B*q+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}\\\\

where A,B,C were the values mentioned earlier. The p,q are the x and y coordinates of the point given. So p = 9 and q = -2

Plugging all that in gives...

d = \frac{|A*p+B*q+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}\\\\d = \frac{|3*9+(-2)*(-2)+8|}{\sqrt{3^2+(-2)^2}}\\\\d = \frac{|27+4+8|}{\sqrt{9+4}}\\\\d = \frac{|39|}{\sqrt{13}}\\\\d = \frac{39}{\sqrt{13}}\\\\d = \frac{39\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{13}\sqrt{13}} \ \text{ rationalizing denominator}\\\\d = \frac{39\sqrt{13}}{13}\\\\d = 3\sqrt{13}\\\\d = \sqrt{9}*\sqrt{13}\\\\d = \sqrt{9*13}\\\\d = \sqrt{117}\\\\

Eyjafjallajokull is a volcano in Iceland. In a recent eruption, a projectile is ejected with an initial velocity of 304 feet per
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A volcano ejected with an initial velocity of 304 feet per second.

The height in feet is given by the equation H=-16t^2+ 304t where t is the time in seconds.

We will use the equation that traces the path of the projectile to determine the following information:

1) The time it takes the projectile to reach its maximum height (using the vertex formula: t=-b/2a)

The equation; H = -16t^2 + 304t, a=-16; b=304

t = -304/2°(-16)

t = 9.5 sec to reach max height

2) The maximum height of the projectile (use the result from part 1 to find the maximum height of the projectile)

t = 9.5

H = -16(9.5^2) + 304(9.5)

h = = -1444 + 2888

h = 1444 ft is the max height

3) Find the time it takes the projectile to return to the ground. Assume that the projectile starts at height H=0.

-16t^2 + 304t = 0

factor out -16t

-16t(t - 19) = 0

t = 19 sec to reach the ground
