Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

<em>Daniels sister is not correct because the time that will be taken by Daniel will be greater than the initial total time taken by Daniel.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First determine the time it will take Daniel to reach the Boat and the jogging time</u>

time = distance / rate

where distance can be calculated using this equation: sin 53° = 400 / x

hence x ( distance ) = 500 ft

rate = 150

therefore Time ( t )  to reach boat = 500 / 150 = 3.33 minutes

Time for jogging ( as calculated ) = 3.69 minutes

therefore total time taken by Daniel = 3.33 + 3.69 = 7.02 minutes

<u>Finally determine if Daniel's sister is correct that he should have swam to the boat ramp and then jogged </u>

lets assume Distance to swim  =  x  ( according his sister )

determine the value of x = \sqrt{400^2 + 1400^2 }   therefore X = 1456.02 feet

∴

Total time to be taken if Daniel follows his sister's instruction  = 1456.02 / 150 = 9.71 minutes

<em>Daniels sister is not correct because the time that will be taken by Daniel will be greater than the initial total time taken by Daniel.</em>

Which is a quadratic function?
ryzh [129]

Answer: f(x)=5x^2-4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic function is as following; ax^2+bx+c

Notice that it cannot be f(x)=0x^2-4x+7 because if you solve; 0x^2=0 which eliminates the x^2.

What is the mean of 72,73,86,59,75,58,50,55
Rashid [163]
<h3><u>MEAN</u></h3>

Mean is the average. To find the mean of a data set, you have to add all the numbers and divide the sum by the amount of numbers you added.

<em>In this equation, you have 8 numbers. That means you will be dividing by 8. </em>

The first thing you need to do is add all the numbers. Add:

72+73+86+59+75+58+50+55 = \bf 528

Now that you have added all the numbers and got the sum, divide by 8. Remember that you will be dividing by 8 since you added 8 numbers.

Divide:

528 \div 8 = \bf 66

The mean is 66

The graph shows two lines, A and B.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer with explanation:

<u>Part A: </u>

One solution.

The number of points of intersection represents the number of solutions. Since the two lines only intersect at one point, there is only one solution.

<u>Part B:</u>

(3, 4)

The point(s) of intersection marks the solution(s) to the lines. Since lines A and B intersect at the point (3, 4), the solution to the equation of their lines is (3, 4), or x=3, y=4, as coordinates are written as (x, y).
