Answer:

Distance= 16.4 units

Midpoint= (1½, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{distance \: between \: 2 \: points =  \sqrt{ {(x1 - x2)}^{2} +  {(y1 - y2)}^{2}  } }

Distance between (-5, 4) and (8, -6)

=  \sqrt{ {( - 5 - 8)}^{2}  +  {[4  - ( -  6)]}^{2} }

=  \sqrt{ {( - 13)}^{2} + (4 + 6) {}^{2}  }

=  \sqrt{169 + 10^{2} }

=  \sqrt{169 + 100}

=  \sqrt{269}

= 16.4 units (3 s.f.)

\boxed{midpoint = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )}

Midpoint

= ( \frac{8 - 5}{2} , \frac{ - 6 + 4}{2} )

= ( \frac{3}{2} , \frac{ - 2}{2} )

= ( 1\frac{1}{2} , - 1)

Flying fish use their pectoral fins like airplane wings to glide through the air. Suppose a flying fish reaches a maximum height
GrogVix [38]

The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and  1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

where  (h,k)  is the vertex of the  parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-

y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5

when x = 0 y = 0  so

0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5

which gives a = -0.018365

So our function for the flight path is

y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5     Answer

A Game of Thrones fan predicts there is a 70% chance that her favorite character will survive the next season and a 75% chance t
zepelin [54]

Answer:

  • <em>The probability that the second favorite character will die given that the first favorite character dies is</em><u> 0.53</u>

  • <u>This kind of probability is called conditional probability</u>

Explanation:

Name the events and their probabiities:

  • Event  A: her favorite character will survive, so P (A) = 0.70

  • Event B: her her second favorite character will die, so P(B) = 0.75

  • Both characters will die ⇒ P (B and not A) = 0.16

You want to find P (B | not A).

That is the probability of the succes B (the second favorite character will die) given other event (not A or the first favorite character dies) is certain (it happens) and that is called conditional probability.

  • P (not A) is the complement probability of A, so P (not A) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

So, you have P(B), P(not A) and want to find P (B | not A)

The definition of conditional probability is:

  • P (X | Y) = P (X and Y) / P (Y)

So, replacing with our terms, we get:

  • P ( B | not A) = P (B and not A) / P (not A) = 0.16 / 0.3 ≈ 0.53

Which functions have graphs that are steeper than the graph of f(x)=−3x^2?
netineya [11]

Answer:

g(x)=−4x^2  and m(x)=4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal stretch or shrink happens when you multiply the parent function (in this case f(x) = x²) by a number.  If this number is between 0 and 1, the graph will be stretched horizontally.  If this number is greater than 1, the graph will be shrunk horizontally.  If the number is between -1 and 0, the graph will be stretched horizontally and flipped; if the number is less than -1, the graph will be shrunk horizontally and flipped.

The graphs that are horizontally shrunk are steeper than the others.  This is m(x)=4x^2  and g(x) = -4x^2.
