Answer: 0.42
Step-by-step explanation:
Max accidently mixed 56 turnip seeds and 78 cabbage seeds together because the two seeds look nearly
identical. The probability of choosing a turnips seed will be:
Turnip seed= 56
Cabbage seeds= 78
Total seeds= 56+78 = 134
Probability of choosing a turnips seed:
= 56/134
= 0.42
Answer:
52 = W
Step-by-step explanation:
Is means equals and of means multiply
13% * 400 = W
Change to decimal form
.13 *400 = W
52 = W
Answer:
Therefore the car takes 2 s to reach a minimum height from the ground before rising again.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a roller coaster ride reach a height of 80 feet.
The height above the ground of the roller coaster is modeled by the function
h(t)=10t²-40t+80
where t is measured in second.
h(t)=10t²-40t+80
Differentiating with respect to t
h'(t)= 10(2t)-40
⇒h'(t)=20t-40
To find the minimum height we set h'(t)=0
∴20t-40=0
⇒20t =40
⇒t=2
The height of the roller coaster minimum when t=2 s.
The minimum height of of the roller coaster is
h(2)= 10(2)²-40.2+80
=40-80+80
=40 feet.
Therefore the car takes 2 s to reach a minimum height from the ground before rising again.
Answer:
f(n) = - 0.5n + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Because Vince cuts down his television watching at a steady pace, his situation models a linear function. As such, we can use slope-intercept form to write and predict his hours watching tv in n weeks.
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. In this case, we are choosing to use f(n) instead of y to show the number of hours he is watching tv. We are also choosing to use n weeks instead of x. So we have the form f(n)=mn+b.
We know that Vince starts out at watching 6 hours a week. This is our initial value known as the y-intercept and represented by b. As each week passes, he will decrease from the previous week by 30 minutes or -0.5 hours since 30 out of 60 minutes is 0.5. And since he is decreasing it should be a negative rate of -0.5 and is represented by m.
We substitute b=6 and m=0.5 into our form to get f(n)=-0.5n+6. Let's test week 1. After 1 week he should be down from 6 hours to 5.5 hours or 5 hours and 30 minutes. Let's substitute n=1.
f(n)=-0.5(1)+6=-0.5+6=5.5
We can substitute for any n week and find the amount.
