does a polygon have at least 3 straight sides and angles or is it a figure with at least three sides?

solmaris [256]

The correct answer is it is a figure with at least 3 straight sides. When you think of a square or a triangle they both have at least 3 sides that are straight. A circle doesn't have any straight sides so it is not a polygon.
You can prove that the other answer is wrong because of two things:
The definition of a polygon is a plane figure with at least three straight sides.
Also, when you think of most shapes what do they all have in common? The have at least three straight sides

There are 5000 undergraduates registered at a certain college. Of them, 448 are taking one course, are taking two courses, 675 a

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

There are some values missing, so I'll find the probability distribution using others as example. Afterwards you can calculate the ones corresponding to this exercise following the same steps.

Considering there are 5000 undergraduates registered in the college.

465 are taking one course

658 are taking two courses

566 are taking three courses

1877 are taking four courses

1344 are taking five courses

90 are taking six courses

First you have to define the variable of interest. To identify it you have to ask yourself the following question: what is the characteristic of this population that is being measured?

The answer is "the number of courses an undergraduate is taking" and this will be the study variable X

X can take values from 1 to 6 courses.

To calculate the probability of each value of X, you have to divide the "number of students taking Xi courses" by "total number of students registered in the college"

For

X=1

P(1)= 465/5000= 0.093

X=2

P(2)= 658/5000= 0.1316

X=3

P(3)= 566/5000= 0.1132

X=4

P(4)= 1877/5000= 0.3754

X=5

P(5)= 1344/5000= 0.2688

X=6

P(6)= 90/5000= 0.018

For this to be a probability distribution the following condition should be met:

F(X)= ∑P(X) = 1

In this example: 0.093 + 0.1316 + 0.1132 + 0.3754 + 0.2688 + 0.018 = 1

I hope this helps!

A truck driver drove 300 miles in 6 3/4 hours. How many miles per hour did the driver drive?

Andru [333]

44.4 miles per hour. You just divide 300 and 6.75 (Think as the 3/4 as quarters each 1 is .25) then you will get 44.4. To check your answer you would multiply 44.4 and 6.75 and get 299.7. This is not 300 but when you round that .7 to the nearest 10 you will get 300. Hope this helped.<span />

A juggler tosses a ball into the air . The balls height, h and time t seconds can be represented by the equation h(t)= -16t^2+40

malfutka [58]

PART A

The given equation is

$h(t) = - 16 {t}^{2} + 40t + 4$

In order to find the maximum height, we write the function in the vertex form.

We factor -16 out of the first two terms to get,

$h(t) = - 16 ({t}^{2} - \frac{5}{2} t) + 4$

We add and subtract

$- 16(- \frac{5}{4} )^{2}$

to get,

$h(t) = - 16 ({t}^{2} - \frac{5}{2} t) + - 16( - \frac{5}{4})^{2} - -16( - \frac{5}{4})^{2} + 4$

We again factor -16 out of the first two terms to get,

$h(t) = - 16 ({t}^{2} - \frac{5}{2} t + ( - \frac{5}{4})^{2} ) - -16( - \frac{5}{4})^{2} + 4$

This implies that,

$h(t) = - 16 ({t}^{2} - \frac{5}{2} t + ( - \frac{5}{4}) ^{2} ) + 16( \frac{25}{16}) + 4$

The quadratic trinomial above is a perfect square.

$h(t) = - 16 ( t- \frac{5}{4}) ^{2} +25+ 4$

This finally simplifies to,

$h(t) = - 16 ( t- \frac{5}{4}) ^{2} +29$

The vertex of this function is

$V( \frac{5}{4} ,29)$

The y-value of the vertex is the maximum value.

Therefore the maximum value is,

$29$

PART B

When the ball hits the ground,

$h(t) = 0$

This implies that,

$- 16 ( t- \frac{5}{4}) ^{2} +29 = 0$

We add -29 to both sides to get,

$- 16 ( t- \frac{5}{4}) ^{2} = - 29$

This implies that,

$( t- \frac{5}{4}) ^{2} = \frac{29}{16}$

$t- \frac{5}{4} = \pm \sqrt{ \frac{29}{16} }$

$t = \frac{5}{4} \pm \frac{ \sqrt{29} }{4}$

$t = \frac{ 5 + \sqrt{29} }{4} = 2.60$

or

$t = \frac{ 5 - \sqrt{29} }{4} = - 0.10$

Since time cannot be negative, we discard the negative value and pick,

$t = 2.60s$
