A ball is dropped from a height of 9 feet and allowed to bounce. Each time the ball bounces, it reaches a height that is23the height of the previous bounce. How many times will the ball be exactly 3 feet above the ground? ​

Answers

Answer 1

I'm assuming you meant to say "it reaches a height that is 2/3 the height of the previous bounce".

We have a geometric sequence with a = 9 as the first term and r = 2/3 as the common ratio.

The nth term is a*(r)^(n-1) = 9*(2/3)^(n-1)

Set this equal to 3 and solve for n. You'll need logs to isolate the exponent.

9*(2/3)^(n-1) = 3

(2/3)^(n-1) = 3/9

(2/3)^(n-1) = 1/3

log[ (2/3)^(n-1) ] = log(1/3)

(n-1)*log(2/3) = log(1/3)

(n-1)*(-0.17609) = -0.47712

n-1 = (-0.47712)/(-0.17609)

n-1 = 2.7095235

n = 2.7095235+1

n = 3.7095235

Unfortunately we don't get a whole number. We can see that the terms of the sequence are:

9, 6, 4, 2.667

Each term is found by multiplying 2/3 by the previous term.

We don't land exactly on "3". The closest we get is 2.667 approximately.

So to answer the question, there is no way to get to exactly 3 feet above the ground based on a whole number of bounces.

x = 69

Step-by-step explanation:

since AB is parallel to CD we can find the value of y with the following equation :

2y - 40 = 66 add 40 to both sides

2y = 110 divide both sides by 2

y = 55

from supplementary angles, we know that the exterior angle's measure is 124

since the sum of two interior angles in a triangle is equal to an exterior angle that is supplementary to the third interior angle

y + x = 124 we found value of y earlier

55 + x = 124 subtract 55 from both sides

x = 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Building 1 (Circle) : Rotate 270 degrees counterclockwise around the origin. Building 2 (Square): Reflect across the y axis. Building 3 (Triangle): Reflect across the y axis, then translate 3 up and 2 to the left. Building 4 (L-Shape) : The points A (3, 8), B (6, 8), C (6, 3), and D (5, 3) need to be transformed to points A'' (–3, 1), B'' (–6, 1), C'' (–6, –4), and D'' (–5, –4). Avoid the pond, which is an oval with an origin at (0, 0), a width of 4 units, and a height of 2 units.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as some coordinates to transform are not given.

I will, however, give a general explanation.

Rotate circle 270 degrees counterclockwise

This implies that, we rotate the center of the circle and the rule of this rotation is:

[tex](x,y) \to (y,-x)[/tex]

Assume the center is: (5,3), the new center will be: (3,-5)

Reflect square across y-axis

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (-x,y)[/tex]

If the square has (3,5) as one of its vertices before rotation, the new point will be (-3,5).

Reflect triangle across y-axis, then 3 units up and 2 units left

The rule of reflection is:

[tex](x,y) \to (-x,y)[/tex]

If the triangle has (3,5) as one of its vertices before rotation, the new point will be (-3,5).

The rule of translating a point up is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x,y+h)[/tex] where h is the unit of translation

In this case, h = 3; So, we have:

[tex](-3,5) \to (-3,5+3)[/tex]

[tex](-3,5) \to (-3,8)[/tex]

The rule of translating a point left is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x-b,y)[/tex] where b is the unit of translation

In this case, b = 2; So, we have:

[tex](-3,8) \to (-3+2,8)[/tex]

[tex](-3,8) \to (-1,8)[/tex]

The L shape

[tex]A = (3, 8)[/tex]       [tex]A" = (-3, 1)[/tex]

[tex]B = (6, 8)[/tex]       [tex]B"= (-6, 1)[/tex]

[tex]C = (6, 3)[/tex]       [tex]C" = (-6, -4)[/tex]

[tex]D = (5, 3)[/tex]       [tex]D" = (-5, -4)[/tex]

Required

The transformation from ABCD to A"B"C"D"

First, ABCD is reflected across the y-axis.

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (-x,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]A' = (-3,8)[/tex]

[tex]B' = (-6,8)[/tex]

[tex]C' = (-6,3)[/tex]

[tex]D' = (-5,3)[/tex]

Next A'B'C'D' is translated 7 units down

The rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x,y-7)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]A"= (-3,8-7) = (-3,1)[/tex]

[tex]B"= (-6,8-7) = (-6,1)[/tex]

[tex]C"= (-6,3-7) = (-6,-4)[/tex]

[tex]D"= (-5,3-7) = (-5,-4)[/tex]

I'm pretty sure you are intended to pick AAS.

Step-by-step explanation:

As it stands, AAS. But this can be an unreliable theorem. If you show that the third angles are equal (which they are) using the fact that if two angles of a triangle are equal to the corresponding angles of another triangle, then the third angle is as well. That means that you can use the much more reliable ASA.

Factorize the numerator:

4r + 20 = 4r + 4×5 = 4 (r + 5)

I think you meant to say r ≠ -5, which means r + 5 ≠ 0, so that the denominator is never zero and so the expression is defined (no division by zero). This lets you cancel the factor of r + 5 in the numerator with the one in the denominator:

(4r + 20)/(r + 5) = 4 (r + 5)/(r + 5) = 4

The y-intercept of the parent function, f(x), is
I
The y-intercept of the child function, g(x), is

Answers

Answer:

The y-intercept of the parent function, f(x), is 0

The y-intercept of the child function, g(x), is  7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the parent function passes through the origin, its y-intercept is 0. Once the function is translated 7 units up, its y-intercept is 7.

The solution is :

Vertex is (-2, 0)

y-intercept is 4.

What is vertex?

In geometry, a vertex is a point where two or more curves, lines, or edges meet. As a consequence of this definition, the point where two lines meet to form an angle and the corners of polygons and polyhedra are vertices.

here, we have,

to find the function translated 2 units left, we just need to substitute the 'x' in the equation by 'x+2':

f(x) = (x+2)^2 = x2 + 4x + 4

Then, to find the vertex, we can use the formula:

x_v = -b / 2a

x_v = -4 / 2 = -2

Now, finding the y_vertex, we have:

f(x_v) = (-2)^2 + 4*(-2) + 4 = 0

So the vertex is (-2, 0)

To find the y-intercept, we make x = 0 and then find f(x):

f(0) = 0 + 0 + 4 = 4

So the y-intercept is 4.
