At centroid medians bisect each other in the ratio 2:1

\\ \sf\longmapsto OC=2(OD)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(3x-2)=5x

\\ \sf\longmapsto 6x-4=5x

\\ \sf\longmapsto 6x-5x=4

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=4

An object is dropped from a bridge and allowed to freefall to the ground. The height of the object over time can be modeled usin
kkurt [141]

Answer:

<em>t = 3 seconds</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation, as a function of time, that describes the height of the object that is dropped from the bridge.

The equation is:

h (t) = 144 - 16t ^ 2

Where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.

To know how long it takes the object to fall to the ground we do h (t) = 0 and solve for t.

So:

0 = 144 - 16t ^ 2\\\\16t ^ 2 = 144\\\\t ^ 2 = \frac{144}{16}\\\\t ^ 2 = 9\\\\t_1 = 3\\t_2 = -3

We take the positive solution.

Therefore the object takes 3 seconds to reach the ground

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

1\frac{1}{2} or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we know it's a dilation.  So we can use any two points.  I chose V and V'.

V: (3,6)

V': (2,4)

So how we get from 6 to 4?

4(x)=6\\x=\frac{6}{4} \\x=1.5

You can tell it's 1.5 aswell because 4 times 1 is 4 and 4 times 0.5 is 2.  Add them to get 6.  

Therefore, the dilation factor is 1.5.

Fed [463]

Answer: 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

uncertainity = 4g

bias = 2g

solution:

σX =0.2 and σY = 0.4

σcX

= 3σX

= 4(0.2)

= 0.8
