The height of the baseball after the 1.5 seconds of time as the boy throw the ball is 15.5 meters.

<h3>How to model a mathematical function?</h3>

The mathematical functions is used to represent the general problem in the mathematical way to solve them.

Steps to write down the simple mathematical function-

  • Identify all the factors of the expression.
  • Assume a variable for the changing values.
  • Put a coefficient for the variable, if there is any rate of change of variable.
  • Use constant numbers for the fixed values.

A boy throws a baseball across a field. The ball reaches its maximum height, 18 meters, after 1 second.

After approximately 2.3 seconds, the ball lands on the ground.

The ball’s motion can be modeled using the function

f(x) = -10x^2 +20x+ 8

Here, x represents the time in seconds.

As, the height of the ball 1.5 seconds after it is thrown has to be found out. Thus, put the values of in the above equation as,

f(x) = -10(1.5)^2 +20(1.5)+ 8\\f(x)=-22.5+30+8\\f(x)=15.5\rm \; m

Hence, the height of the baseball after the 1.5 seconds of time as the boy throw the ball is 15.5 meters.

Find the sentence distance between the points (-2,2) and (-1,1). Round to two decimal places if necessary.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

1.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of point 1 are:

(-2,2)

Coordinates of point 2 are:

(-1,1)

Distance \: between \: two \: points \\ =  \sqrt{  {(x_{2} -  x_{1})}^{2} +  {(y_{2} -  y_{1})}^{2} }  \\  = \sqrt{  { (- 1 -   - 2)}^{2} +  {(1 -  2)}^{2} } \\  = \sqrt{  { (1)}^{2} +  {( - 1)}^{2} } \\  = \sqrt{  1 +  1 } \\   =  \sqrt{2} \\ =  1.41

1.A soap manufacturing company changes the design of their soap from a cone to a sphere shape.The cone had a height of 4 inches
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

1. 4π/3 in³

2. 2.6 ounces

3. 1081.5 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A soap manufacturing company changes the design of their soap from a cone to a sphere shape. The cone had a height of 4 inches and radius of 3 inches. The sphere has a diameter of 4 inches. In cubic inches, how much less soap is in the new design than the old design? Leave answer in terms of π and as a simplified fraction.

We find the volume of the cone and sphere to know the quantity of soap in each of them.

Volume of cone of soap, V = πr²h/3 where r = radius of cone = 3 inches and h = height of cone = 4 inches

So, V = πr²h/3

= π(3 in)² × 4 in/3

= 9π in² × 4 in/3

= 3π in² × 4 in

= 12π in³

We now find the volume of the sphere, V' = 4πR³/3 where R = radius of sphere = d/2 where d = diameter of sphere = 4 inches. So. R = d/2 = 4 in/2  = 2 in.

So, V = 4πR³/3

= 4π(2 in)³/3

= 4π × 8 in³/3

= 32π in³/3

So the amount of soap less used in the new design than the old design is the old volume - new volume = V - V' = 12π in³ - 32π in³/3 = (36π in³ - 32π in³)/3 = 4π/3 in³

2. Austin uses a mold to make cone shaped cupcakes. The diameter of the mold is 3 inches, and the height of the mold is 2 inches. If 1 cubic inch is about 0.55 ounce, how many ounces will ten cupcakes weigh? Use 3.14 for pi. Round to the nearest tenth of an ounce.

Since the cake is a cone, we find its volume to know its quantity.

So,  Volume of cone of cupcakes, V = πr²h/3 where r = radius of cone = d/2 where d = diameter = 3 inches. So r = d/2 = 3/2 = 1.5 in and h = height of cone = 2 inches

So, V = πr²h/3

= π(1.5 in)² × 2 in/3

= 2.25π in² × 2 in/3

= 4.5π in³/3

= 4.5(3.14) in³/3

= 14.13 in³/3

= 4.71 in³

Now since 1 cubic inch = 0.55 ounces,

4.71 in³ = 4.71 × 1 in³

= 4.71 × 0.55 ounces

= 2.591 ounces

≅ 2.6 ounces to the nearest tenth of an ounce.

3. Walden is planning to install an above ground pool in he backyard. The pool has a diameter of 18 feet and depth of 5 feet. He is going to fill it to 85% capacity. How much water will be in the pool when he is finished?

We need to find the volume of the empty pool, V.

Since the pool has a diameter, d = 18 feet, it has a circular cross-section whose area, A = πd²/4.

Since the depth of the pool, h = 5 feet, the volume of the pool is V = Ah = πd²h/4.

So, V = πd²h/4

= π(18 ft)² × 5 ft/4

= 324π ft² × 5 ft/4

= 81π ft² × 5 ft

= 405π ft³

= 1272.35 ft³

Since Walden fills the pool to 85 % capacity, the volume of water would thus be V' = 85% of V

= 0.85V

= 0.85 × 1272.35 ft³

= 1081.5 ft³

Which answers are examples of deductive reasoning?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The fair charges $5 for admission. Tom is going to the fair today. Therefore, Tom will spend $5 for admission to the fair today.

The radius of a circle is one-half the length of the diameter of a circle. The diameter of a circle is 10 ft. Therefore, the radius of the circle is 5 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deductive reasoning or deduction, is one of the two basic types of logical inferences. A logical inference is a connection from a first statement to a second statement for which the rules of logic show that if the first statement is true, the second statement should be true. Basically one logical statement defines the base of the argument to reach the conclusion.

Here we can see that in first case:

The fair charges $5 for admission, so we know the fact that it charges $5 for the admission, now whoever goes to the fair will have to spend $5 to get in. Tom is going to the fair so Tom will spend$5 for admission to the fair. Therefore, this statement is deductive reasoning.

Case 2:

The radius of a circle is one-half the length of the diameter, this sentence is a fact. Now the diameter of a circle is 10ft so it is obvious that based on the previous sentence we will calculate the radius of the circle that is half of the diameter.

So only these two examples are based on deductive reasoning.
