Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

14 + 21 = 35

14/35 × 100 = 40

Therefore 40% of the cupcakes had sprinkles

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

total cupcakes: 14+21 = 35

Percentage with sprinkles = sprinkles / total

= 14/35

=.4

= 40 %

In 1998, Cathy's age is equal to the sum of the four digits in the year of her birthday, then how old was Cathy in 1998?

ycow [4]

Answer:

<em>Cathy was born in 1980 and she was 18 years old in 1998</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

This is a special type of equations where all the unknowns must be integers and limited to a range [0,9] because they are the digits of a number.

Let's say Cathy was born in the year x formed by the ordered digits abcd. A number expressed by its digits can be calculated as

$x=1000a+100b+10c+d$

In 1998, Cathy's age was

$1998-(1000a+100b+10c+d)$

And it must be equal to the sum of the four digits

$1998-(1000a+100b+10c+d)=a+b+c+d$

Rearranging

$1998=1001a+101b+11c+2d$

We are sure a=1, b=9 because Cathy's age is limited to having been born in the same century and millennium. Thus

$1998=1001+909+11c+2d$

Operating

$88=11c+2d$

If now we try some values for c we notice there is only one possible valid combination, since c and d must be integers in the range [0,9]

c=8, d=0

Thus, Cathy was born in 1980 and she was 18 years old in 1998. Note that 1+9+8+0=18

SOLVE THE QUESTION BELOW ASAP

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Part A) The graph in the attached figure (see the explanation)

Part B) 16 feet

Part C) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Graph the function

Let

h(t) ----> the height in feet of the ball above the ground

t -----> the time in seconds

we have

$h(t)=-16t^{2}+98$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex is a maximum

To graph the parabola, find the vertex, the intercepts, and the axis of symmetry

<em>Find the vertex</em>

The function is written in vertex form

so

The vertex is the point (0,98)

Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of the function when the value of t is equal to zero

For t=0

$h(t)=-16(0)^{2}+98$

$h(0)=98$

The y-intercept is the point (0,98)

Find the t-intercepts

The t-intercepts are the values of t when the value of the function is equal to zero

For h(t)=0

$-16t^{2}+98=0$

$t^{2}=\frac{98}{16}$

square root both sides

$t=\pm\frac{\sqrt{98}}{4}$

$t=\pm7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}$

therefore

The t-intercepts are

$(-7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4},0), (7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4},0)$

$(-2.475,0), (2.475,0)$

Find the axis of symmetry

The equation of the axis of symmetry in a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

so

$x=0$ ----> the y-axis

To graph the parabola, plot the given points and connect them

we have

The vertex is the point $(0,98)$

The y-intercept is the point $(0,98)$

The t-intercepts are $(-2.475,0), (2.475,0)$

The axis of symmetry is the y-axis

The graph in the attached figure

Part B) How far is the artifact fallen from the time t=0 to time t=1

we know that

For t=0

$h(t)=-16(0)^{2}+98$

$h(0)=98\ ft$

For t=1

$h(t)=-16(1)^{2}+98$

$h(1)=82\ ft$

Find the difference

$98\ ft-82\ ft=16\ ft$

Part C) Does the artifact fall the same distance from time t=1 to time t=2 as it does from the time t=0 to time t=1?

we know that

For t=1

$h(t)=-16(1)^{2}+98$

$h(1)=82\ ft$

For t=2

$h(t)=-16(2)^{2}+98$

$h(2)=34\ ft$

Find the difference

$82\ ft-34\ ft=48\ ft$

so

The artifact fall 48 feet from time t=1 to time t=2 and fall 16 feet from time t=0 to time t=1

therefore

The distance traveled from t=1 to t=2 is greater than the distance traveled from t=0 to t=1
