Tom makes a bet with his friend Bob. Bob wagers $100, but Tom decides to make him a deal. If Bob wins, Tom will pay him $100. If

Tom wins, Bob will instead pay $1 for the first day, then every day for 10 days he must match the total amount paid so far.
For the first day, Bob will pay $1. The second day, he will pay an additional dollar, since he has only paid $1 thus far. The third day he will pay $2, the fourth $4, and so on.
If Bob has a 75% chance to win, which of the following is the closest to the amount of money Tom will make on average with this bet?
Possible Answers:
A. -$25
B. $50
C. $0
D. $25

The function shown below was created to track the different intervals of speed that an automobile travels over a period of 28 se
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1. The car is slowing down at a rate of 2.5mph/s

2. The greatest acceleration is 10 mph/s.

3. In the interval 4s to 16s the speed remains constant and has magnitude 25 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The deceleration of the car is from 16 seconds to 24 seconds is the slope m of the graph from 16 to 24:

m=\dfrac{\Delta speed }{\Delta time } = \dfrac{5-25}{24-16} =-2.5mph/s

the negative sign indicates that it is deceleration.

2. The automobile experiences the greatest change in speed when the slope is greatest because that is when acceleration/deceleration is greatest.

From the graph we see that the greatest slope of the graph is between 28 and 24 seconds. The acceleration the interval is the slope m:

m= \dfrac{45-5}{28-24}= 10mph/s

3. The automobile experiences no acceleration in the interval 4 s to 16 s—that's the graph is flat.

The speed of the automobile in that interval, as we see from the graph, is 25 mph.

Alenkasestr [34]

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown in the figure below.

Let h the height of the hill. =

At position A, the angle of elevation is 40°, and the horizontal distance to the foot of the hill is x.

By definition,

tan(40°) = h/x h = x tan40 = 0.8391x

(1)

At position B, Joe is (x - 450) ft from the foot of the hill. His angle of elevation is

40 + 18 = 58°.

By definition, tan(58°) = h/(x - 450)

h = (x - 450) tan(58°) = 1.6003(x-450)

h = 1.6003x - 720.135 (2)

Equate (1) and (2).

1.6003x - 720.135 = 0.8391x 0.7612x = 720.135

x = 946.0523

From (1), obtain

h = 0.8391*946.0523 = 793.8 ft

Answer: The height of the hill is approximately 794 ft (nearest integer)
