Answer:

Braden jump \frac{7}{16} feet higher than Jordan.

Step-by-step explanation:

distance between jumps: Branden's jump - Jordan's jump

Here Braden's jump is 9 \frac{5}{16} and Jordan's jump is 8 \frac{7}{8}

Distance between jump's:

9 \frac{5}{16}  -  8 \frac{7}{8}

\frac{149}{16}  - \frac{71}{8}

\frac{149}{16}  - \frac{142}{16}

\frac{149-142}{16}

\frac{7}{16}

Braden jump \frac{7}{16} feet higher than Jordan.

First you want both of the denominators to be the same.

You can multiply \frac{7}{8} \times  2 to get \frac{14}{16}

So the two values are 9\frac{5}{16}and 8\frac{14}{16}

When you subtract both values you get the answer \frac{7}{16}

Answer : \frac{7}{16}

From a thin piece of cardboard 40 in by 40 in, square corners are cut out so that the sides can be folded up to make a box. what
lutik1710 [3]
The dimensions of the square base after cutting the corners will be (40-2x). The depth of the box will be x, so its volume is given by
  V = x(40-2x)²

You can differentiate this to get
  V' = 12x² -320x -1600
Setting this to zero and factoring gives
  (3x-20)(x-20) = 0
The appropriate choice of solutions is
  x = 20/3 = 6 2/3

The dimensions of the box of maximum volume are
  26 2/3 in square by 6 2/3 in deep

The maximum volume is
  (80/3 in)²(20/3 in) = 4740 20/27 in³

Find mZP.<br> P<br> 26<br> 2./13<br> R<br> mZP =<br> I’m confused
kondaur [170]

Answer:

45 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a right triangle, we use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

The angle marked P faces QR and that makes it the opposite side

PR faces the right angle and that makes it the hypotenuse

The trigonometric ratio that links the opposite and the hypotenuse is the sine

It is the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

Thus;

sin P = √26/2 √13

Sin P = √2/2

P = arc sin √2/2

P = 45 degrees

Does the line passing through the points (−1,−5) and (2,1) intersect the line passing through the points (−1,−6) and (1,2)?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as the slopes of these two lines are not the same, they will intersect.

Given two points on a line, we can find the slope by taking the difference in the y coordinates and dividing it by the difference in the x coordinates.

Slope of 1st line: \frac{-5-1}{-1-2} =\frac{-6}{-3} =\frac{1}{2}

Slope of 2nd line: \frac{-6-2}{-1-1} =\frac{-8}{-2}=4

The slopes are not equal, therefore the lines intersect.

The proceeds from a car wash are directly proportional to the number of cars washed. The total after 9 cars was $180. How much c
Westkost [7]

Answer:

$1200

Step-by-step explanation:

180 divided by 9 is 20, so they earned $20 per car washed. They want to wash 60 cars, and if they wash 60 cars they would earn $1200. (60 x 20)
