Rule: Any positive number is always larger than any negative number.

For example, 10 is larger than -2. So we write 10 > -2.

The same goes for 8 & 1/4 vs -8 & 1/4. It doesn't matter if we involve fractions or decimals.

Visually, positive numbers are to the right of 0 on the number line. Negative numbers are to the left of 0.

Stuff on the right is larger than stuff on the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you plot both those numbers on a number line, 8 ¼ will be on the right of the zero, and -8¼ will be on the left. The numbers on the right of zero are +ve and numbers on the left of zero are -ve. +ve numbers are always greater than -ve numbers, so 8¼ > -8¼!

In class A, John got 85 for his first test John's class mean was 75 and standard deviation was 5. In class B, Kathy got 80 in he
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

b. Kathy

Step-by-step explanation:

We compare each of their score by how far away from the mean when in term of the standard deviation. Using the following formula

\frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

For John he is (85 - 75)/5 = 2.

For Kathy she is (80 - 50)/10 = 3.

Since Kathy is 3 standard deviation better than her class' average, while John is only 2's. We conclude that Kathy did better.

(2) Using the distance formula, d = √(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2, what is the distance between point (-2, 2) and point (4, 4) rounde
monitta

Using the distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} - y_{1})^2  } \\, what is the distance between point (-2, 2) and point (4, 4) rounded to the nearest tenth?

Using the points given, plug them into the equation.

d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} - y_{1})^2  } \\d = \sqrt{((4) - (-2))^2 + ((4) - (2)^2  } \\d=\sqrt{(4+2)^2 + (4-2)^2}\\d=\sqrt{(6)^2 + (2)^2}  \\d=\sqrt{36+4} \\d=\sqrt{40} \\

Plug this into a calculator and you get 6.32455532

Since you only need it up to the tenth (0.1), round up 6.32

<em>Five or more, let it soar. Four or less, let it rest.</em>

Since two is lower than four, we drop it.

Therefore, the distance between points (-2, 2) and (4, 4) is 6.3

Hope this helps ^w^

A Ferris wheel has a radius of 10 m, and the bottom of the wheel passes 1 m above the ground. If the Ferris wheel makes one comp
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

y = 11 - 10cos(0.1\pi t)

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose at t = 0 the person is 1m above the ground and going up

Knowing that the wheel completes 1 revolution every 20s and 1 revolution = 2π rad in angle, we can calculate the angular speed

2π / 20 = 0.1π rad/s

The height above ground would be the sum of the vertical distance from the ground to the bottom of the wheel and the vertical distance from the bottom of the wheel to the person, which is the wheel radius subtracted by the vertical distance of the person to the center of the wheel.

y = h_g + d_b = h_g + R - d_c (1)

where h_g = 1 is vertical distance from the ground to the bottom of the wheel, d_b is the vertical distance from the bottom of the wheel to the person, R = 10 is the wheel radius, d_c is the vertical distance of the person to the center of the wheel.

So solve for d_c in term of t, we just need to find the cosine of angle θ it has swept after time t and multiply it with R

d_c = Rcos(\theta(t)) = Rcos(\omega t) = 10cos(0.1\pi t)

Note that d_c is negative when angle θ gets between π/2 (90 degrees) and 3π/2 (270 degrees) but that is expected since it would mean adding the vertical distance to the wheel radius.

Therefore, if we plug this into equation (1) then

y = h_g + R - d_c = 1 + 10 - 10cos(0.1\pi t) = 11 - 10cos(0.1\pi t)
