The question is missing parts. Here is the complete question.

Suppose that the number of patients on the kidney waiting list from 2003 to 2010 can be modeled by the equation y=201x^{2}-2813x+52267, where x₀ represents the year 2000. Assume that this trend continues and predict the year in which 71,381 patients will be on the waiting list.

Answer: The year in which 71,381 patients will be on the waiting list is 2019.

Step-by-step explanation: y represents the amount of patients waiting on the list. x is in years.

To determine how many years for that amount of patients, we substitute y by 71,381:

y=201x^{2}-2813x+52267

71381=201x^{2}-2813x+52267

201x^{2}-2813-19114=0

Solving the quadratic equation:

x=\frac{2813+\sqrt{(-2813)^{2}-4(201)(-19114)} }{2*201}

x=\frac{2813+\sqrt{23280625} }{402}

x=\frac{2813+4825}{402} = 19

x=\frac{2813-4825}{402}= -5.005

The quadratic equation will give two solutions, but one of them is negative. Since there is no amount of negative time, the result is 19.

The initial year (x₀) is 2000. <u>It will need 19 years for the patients to be 71,381, which means that the year is 2019.</u>

A baseball player hit 57 home runs in a season. Of the 57 home​ runs, 15 went to right​ field, 20 went to right center​ field, 1
Sidana [21]

Place the part (amount going to the left field), over the total amount of homerun:

(a) 2/57 is your probability

(b) Divide 2/57

2/57 = 0.035, or 3.5%

YES, it is unusual for this player to hit a home run to left field, for he only has a 3.5% chance.

A 4​-ft vertical post casts a 12​-in shadow at the same time a nearby cell phone tower casts a 118​-ft shadow. How tall is the c
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

height of vertical post = 6ft

its shadow = 20 in

For all shadows cast at the same time, the ratio of the height of a shadow-casting structure to the length of its shadow is the same. (Assuming, of course, that it's the sun casting the shadows.)

So the ratio is  

4 feet / 12 inches = 4 feet / 1 foot = 4/1 = 4,

and if h is the height of the cell tower,

h/122 feet = 4

h = 4 x 122 feet = 488 feet. <---------------- Final answer

Hope I helped,

Alandra's rectangular cake pan is 33cm by 23 cm. She has enough cake batter to fill it to a depth of 3 cm. Instead, Alandra want
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Alandra can fill 60 whole cones

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is V = L × W × H, where

  • L is its length
  • W is its width
  • H is its height

The volume of the cone is V = \frac{1}{3} π r² h, where

  • r is the radius of its base
  • h is its height

∵ Alandra's rectangular cake pan is 33 cm by 23 cm

∴ L = 33 cm and W = 23 cm

∵ She has enough cake batter to fill it to a depth of 3 cm.

∴ H = 3 cm

→ Find the volume of the batter using the 1st rule above

∵ V = 33 × 23 × 3

∴ V = 2277 cm³

∵ Alandra wants to pour the batter into ice cream cones

∵ She plans to fill each cone to a depth of 9 cm with a diameter of 4 cm

∴ h = 9 cm

∵ r = \frac{1}{2} diameter = \frac{1}{2} (4)

∴ r = 2 cm

→ Substitute them in the 2nd rule above to find the volume of each cone

∵ V = \frac{1}{3} (π) (2)² (9)

∴ V = 12π cm³

→ To find the number of cones divide the volume of the batter by

   the volume of each cone

∵ Number of cones = 2277 ÷ 12π

∴ Number of cones = 60.3993

→ We will take the whole number only because we need the whole cones

∴ Alandra can fill 60 whole cones
