The infield of a baseball field is a square

Mathematics
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  106.1 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the diagonal of a square is √2 times the length of one side, so the distance from 3rd to 1st is 90√2 feet ≈ 127.2792 ft.

The speed is the ratio of distance to time:

  speed = distance/time = 127.2972 ft/(1.2 s) ≈ 106.1 ft/s.

_____

In case you have never figured or seen the computation of the diagonal of a square (the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle), consider the square with side lengths 1. The diagonal will cut the square into halves that are isosceles right triangles with leg lengths 1. Then the Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the diagonal length d:

  d² = 1² + 1²

  d² = 2

  d = √2

Since this is the diagonal for a side length of 1, any other side length will serve as a scale factor for this value. A square with a side length of 90 ft will have a diagonal measuring 90√2 ft.

Is the following relation a function? *
spayn [35]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well at first glance it might seem so but there are two points particularly that can tell you that these points cannot be within a function.

The points (3,2) and (3,-2) will yield an undefined slope (a straight vertical line). There is no possibility that the other points can be in this line (as their y - values are different) and there is no possibilty that this is a function at all according to the vertical line test (the test is that if you draw a vertical line that there shouldn't be more than one point on it).

The axis of symmetry for the graph of the function f(x) = 3x2 + bx + 4 is x = 3/2 . What is the value of b?
kvasek [131]
The axis of symmety is the x value of the vertex

to find the x value of the vertex of ax^2+bx+c=0
x value=-b/2a

3x^2+bx+4=0
3/2=vertex

-b/2(3)=3/2
-b/6=3/2
times 6
-b=18/2
-b=9
times -1
b=-9

Main Idea: To evaluate an exponential growth or decay function, substitute a value for the exponent variable and simplify.
Helen [10]
If there is more to the answer than what I give please ask for more!

With F(x) = 3^{x} we can find F(4) by substituting 4 into the main function.

So it would look like this: F(4) = 3^{4} = 3*3*3*3 = 81

Hope this helps!
