Elise and her younger brother, Reid, take turns loading the dishwasher after dinner. Because she is older, Elise loads the dishw

asher 4 times for every 3 times Reid loads it. If Elise and Reid have loaded the dishwasher 84 times in all this year, how many times has Elise loaded the dishwasher?

Answer:

<h2>48</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

so for every 3 Reid washes there are 4 Elsie washes

the ratio of washing is 3:4

lets add 3 and 4 up

3 + 4 = 7

now lets divide the total number of washes by the added ratio

84/ 7

=12

now we know that 1 part is 12

to find Elsie's part we need to x 12 by how many parts she has got

she washed 4 times

4 x 12

=48

A vector with magnitude 9 points in a direction 190 degrees counterclockwise from the positive x axis. Write in component form

Over [174]

Answer:

$\vec{v}= \text{ or } \approx$

Step-by-step explanation:

Component form of a vector is given by $\vec{v}=$ , where $i$ represents change in x-value and $j$ represents change in y-value. The magnitude of a vector is correlated the Pythagorean Theorem. For vector $\vec{v}=$ , the magnitude is $||v||=\sqrt{i^2+j^2$ .

190 degrees counterclockwise from the positive x-axis is 10 degrees below the negative x-axis. We can then draw a right triangle 10 degrees below the horizontal with one leg being $i$ , one leg being $j$ , and the hypotenuse of the triangle being the magnitude of the vector, which is given as 9.

In any right triangle, the sine/sin of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse, or longest side, of the triangle.

Therefore, we have:

$\sin 10^{\circ}=\frac{j}{9},\\j=9\sin 10^{\circ}$

To find the other leg, $i$ , we can also use basic trigonometry for a right triangle. In right triangles only, the cosine/cos of an angle is equal to its adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle. We get:

$\cos 10^{\circ}=\frac{i}{9},\\i=9\cos 10^{\circ}$

Verify that $(9\sin 10^{\circ})^2+(9\cos 10^{\circ})^2=9^2\:\checkmark$

Therefore, the component form of this vector is $\vec{v}=\boxed{}\approx \boxed{}$

1.) What is the equation of the path of firework #1? Write your equation in general form.

valina [46]

1. I'm assumig that the paths are perfect parabolas

this means that their general forms can be written in $y=ax^2+bx+c$

it's easier to find vertex form first then expand to get general form

vertex form is $y=a(x-h)^2+k$ where the vertex is (h,k) and a is a constant

firework #1

vertex is (10,50), so (h,k)=(10,50) and h=10, k=50

$h_1=a(t-10)^2+50$

to find the value of $a$ , subsitute another point

(0,0)

$0=a(0-10)^2+50)$

$0=100a+50$

$a=\frac{-1}{2}$

so the equation in vertex form is $h_1=\frac{-1}{2}(t-10)^2+50$

expand to get general form

$h_1=\frac{-1}{2}(t^2-20t+100)+50$

$h_1=\frac{-1}{2}t^2+10t-50+50$

$h_1=\frac{-1}{2}t^2+10t$

2.

same as last time

vertex is (10,72) so (h,k)=(10,72) so h=10 and k=72

equation is $h_2=a(t-10)^2+72$

find $a$

use another point

(0,22)

$22=a(0-10)^2+72$

$22=100a+72$

$-50=100a$

$a=\frac{-1}{2}$

so the equation in vertex form is $h_2=\frac{-1}{2}(t-10)^2+72$

3.

range is the numbers that h is allowed to be

think about what h represents. it represents the height of the rocket

from the graph, we can see that the lowest possible height is 0yd and the highest height is 50yd

so range is 0 to 50 or 0≤h≤50

domain is the numbers that t is allowed to be

think about what t represents. it represents how long the rocket has been flying

it will stop flying when it hits the ground or at t=20

it starts flying at t=0

so domain is from 0 to 20 or 0≤t≤20

Please help with solving

Makovka662 [10]

N.O = 4
N is midpoint of M.0
Meaning M.N also has to be 4
4+4= 8
N.P = 6
0.P = 2
8+ 2 = 10

BASKETBALL After Game 1, Felicia had scored 14 points. After Game 5, she had scored a total of 82 points for the season. After G

Stella [2.4K]

Let $p$ represents the number of points scored in $n$ number of games.

So, the graph, the number of games, n is on the horizontal axis and the points scored, p, is on the vertical axis.

After Game 1, the point scored is 14,

so, the first point, $P_1$ , on the graph is

$P_1=(1,14)$

After Game 5, the point scored is 82,

so, the second point, $P_2$ , on the graph is

$P_2=(5,82).$

After Game 10, the point scored is 129,

so, the second point, $P_2$ , on the graph is

$P_2=(10,129)$

First, represent all the three points, $P_1, P_2$ and $P_3$ , on the graph, then connect $P_1- P_2$ and $P_2 - P_3$ as shown in the figure.
