A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 19 m/s. Its height, h(t)metres after t seconds, is given by the equation h(t) = -3t2 + 20t + 2.0.

The time taken by the ball to reach the maximum height is ________ seconds. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 different ways to do this: calculus and by completing the square. In this particular instance, calculus is WAY easier, and since I don't know for what class you are doing this, I'll do both ways. First the calculus way. We know the position equation, and the first derivative of the position is velocity. We also know that when the velocity is equal to 0 is when the object is at its max height. So we'll find the derivative first, then solve it for t:

If [tex]s(t)=-3t^2+20t+2[/tex] then the first derivative is

v(t) = -6t + 20 Solving for t requires that we set the velocity equal to 0 (again, this is where the object is at its max height), so

0 = -6t + 20 and

-20 = -6t so

t = 3.3 seconds. Now that we know that at 3.3 seconds the object is at its highest point, we sub that time into the position function to see where it is at that time:

s(3.3) = [tex]-3(3.3)^2+20(3.3)+2[/tex] and

s(3.3) = 35.3 meters.

Now onto the more difficult way...completing the square. Begin by setting the position function equal to 0 and then move over the constant to get:

[tex]-3t^2+20t=-2[/tex] Since the leading coefficient is not a 1 (it's a 3), we have to factor out the 3, leaving us with:

[tex]-3(t^2-\frac{20}{3}t)=-2[/tex] Now the rule is to take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is [tex]\frac{20}{3}[/tex] and half of that is [tex]\frac{20}{6}[/tex]. Squaring that:

[tex](\frac{20}{6})^2=\frac{400}{36}=\frac{100}{9}[/tex]. We will add that in to both sides. On the left it's easy, but on the right we have to take into account that we still have that -3 sitting out front, refusing to be ignored. So we have to multiply it in when we add it to the right. Doing that gives us:

[tex]-3(t^2-\frac{20}{3}t+\frac{100}{9})=-2-\frac{100}{3}[/tex] We will clean this up a bit now. The reason we do this is because on the left we have created a perfect square binomial which will give us the time we are looking for to answer this question. Simplifying the right and at the same time writing the perfect square binomial  gives us:

[tex]-3(t-\frac{20}{6})^2=-\frac{106}{3}[/tex] Now the last step is to move the constant back over and set the quadratic back equal to y:

[tex]y=-3(t-\frac{20}{6})^2+\frac{106}{3}[/tex].  The vertex of this quadratic is

[tex](\frac{20}{6},\frac{106}{3})[/tex] where

[tex]\frac{20}{6}=3.3[/tex] as the time it takes for the ball to reach its max height of

[tex]\frac{106}{3}=35.3[/tex] meters.

I'd say if you plan on taking calculus cuz you're not there yet, you'll see that many of these types of problems become much simpler when you know it!

Solve the system of linear equations below.
6x + 3y = 33
4x + y = 15

A.
x = 2, y = 7
B.
x = -13, y = 7
C.
x = - 2/3, y = 12 2/3
D.
x = 5, y = 1

Answers

Answer:

The answer for both linear equations is A. x = 2, y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

First start by plugging in the variables with the given numbers (2,7). We'll start with 6x + 3y = 33.

6x + 3y = 33

6 (2) + 3 (7 )= 33 <--- This is the equation after the numbers are plugged in.

12 + 10 = 33

33 = 33 <---- This statement is true, therefore it is the correct pair.

Now we are not done, to confirm that this pair works with both equations we need to solve for 4x + y = 15 to see if it works. Linear Equations must have the variables work on both equations.

4x + y = 15 <----- We are going to do the exact same thing to this equation.

4(2) + 7 = 15

8 + 7 = 15

15 = 15  <-- 15=15 is a true statement therefore this pair works for this equation.

Therefore,

A. x = 2, y = 7 is the correct answer

a student takes two subjects A and B. Know that the probability of passing subjects A and B is 0.8 and 0.7 respectively. If you have passed subject A, the probability of passing subject B is 0.8. Find the probability that the student passes both subjects? Find the probability that the student passes at least one of the two subjects

Answers

Answer:

0.64 = 64% probability that the student passes both subjects.

0.86 = 86% probability that the student passes at least one of the two subjects

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Passing subject A

Event B: Passing subject B

The probability of passing subject A is 0.8.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.8[/tex]

If you have passed subject A, the probability of passing subject B is 0.8.

This means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.8[/tex]

Find the probability that the student passes both subjects?

This is [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(B|A)P(A) = 0.8*0.8 = 0.64[/tex]

0.64 = 64% probability that the student passes both subjects.

Find the probability that the student passes at least one of the two subjects

This is:

[tex]p = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)[/tex]

Considering [tex]P(B) = 0.7[/tex], we have that:

[tex]p = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) = 0.8 + 0.7 - 0.64 = 0.86[/tex]

0.86 = 86% probability that the student passes at least one of the two subjects

According to Okun's law, if the unemployment rate goes from 5% to 3%, what will be the effect on the GDP?

B. It will decrease by 7%.
C. It will decrease by 1%.
D. It will increase by 1%.

Answers

Answer:

D. It will increase by 1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]u_1 = 5\%[/tex] --- initial rate

[tex]u_2 = 3\%[/tex] --- final rate

Required

The effect on the GDP

To calculate this, we make use of:

[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = u_1 - 2\triangle u[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 5\% - 2(5\% - 3\%)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 5\% - 2(2\%)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 5\% - 4\%[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 1\%[/tex]

This implies that the GDP will increase by 1%

Suppose X and Y are two independent exponential variables. The mean of X is twice the mean of Y. If the probability of X exceeding 50 is 0.7788, what is the probability of Y exceeding 40

Answers

If X ~ Exponential(µ), then the mean of X is 1/µ. So if the mean of X is twice the mean of Y, then the mean of Y is 1/(2µ), so that Y ~ Exponential(2µ).

We're given that

P(X > 50) = 1 - P(X ≤ 50) = 1 - Fx (50) ≈ 0.7788

==>   Fx (50) = P(X ≤ 50) ≈ 0.2212

where Fx is the CDF of X, which is given for 0 ≤ x < ∞ to be

Fx (x) = 1 - exp(-µx)

Solve for µ :

1 - exp(-50µ) ≈ 0.2212   ==>   µ ≈ -ln(0.7788)/50 ≈ 0.005

Then we have

P (Y > 40) = 1 - P (Y ≤ 40) = 1 - Fy (40)

where Fy is the CDF of Y,

Fy (y) = 1 - exp(-2µy)

so that

P (Y > 40) ≈ 1 - exp(-2 × 0.005 × 40) ≈ 0.3297

Suppose you invest a certain amount of money in account that earns 3% annual interest. You also invest that same amount + $2000 that earns 4% annual interest. If the total interest from both accounts at the end of the year is $535, how much has been invested in each account?

Answers

First account: $6500
Second account: $8500

Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500

[tex]n = 10[/tex]

So, the median position is:

[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{10 + 1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{11}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = 5.5th[/tex]

This means that the median is the average of the 5th and 6th item

[tex]Median = \frac{3.36 + 3.51}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{6.87}{2}[/tex]
