A ping pong ball is released from a height of 60 centimeters (cm) and bounces to a height that is 3/4 the previous height. What function estimates the height, H, in cm of the ping pong ball after x bounces?

Enter a number in each blank to correctly complete the function.

H = BLANK(BLANK)^x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

H = 60(3/4)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

After each bounce, the height it reach is 3/4 the previous one.

Let the height of nth bounce be denoted as h_n and the first bounce is h_1.

We are given that h_1 = 60 cm. Following the rule in the problem, we get:

h_2 = (3/4)h_1 = (3/4)60

h_3 = (3/4)h_2 = (3/4)*(3/4)60 = 60(3/4)^2

h_4 = (3/4)h_3 = (3/4)*60(3/4)^2= 60(3/4)^3

We see that h_n = 60(3/4)^n is the formula for the height for the nth bounce. Therefore, H = 60(3/4)^x is the answer.

Answer:

Angle A: 28 degrees

Angle B: 24 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The angle that measures 52 degrees (angle DCA) is one of the exterior angles of a triangle. An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles, which in this case would be angles A and B. Knowing this, we can set up the following equation:

[tex]4y-4+3y=52[/tex]

1) Solve for y

[tex]4y-4+3y=52[/tex]

Combine like terms

[tex]7y-4=52[/tex]

Add 4 to both sides to isolate 7y

[tex]7y-4+4=52+4\\7y=56[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7

[tex]\frac{7y}{7}=\frac{56}{7} \\y=8[/tex]

Therefore, y is equal to 8.

2) Solve for angles A and B

Angle A:

[tex]4y-4\\=4(8)-4\\=32-4\\=28[/tex]

Angle B:

[tex]3y\\=3(8)\\=24[/tex]

Originally a rectangle has dimensions 12in by 8in. if the same amount increases on both sides, the area is doubled find the new dimensions

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the increase in the size of the length and breath be 'x'.

The area of the rectangle = 12in × 8in

=96 in²

From the question,

(12+x)(8+x)=96×2 in²

or, 96+12x+8x+x²= 192

or, x²+20x+96-192=0

or, x²+20x-96=0

or, x²+24x-4x-96=0

or, x(x+24)-4(x+24)=0

or, (x-4)(x+24)=0

Either, Or,

x-4=0 x+24=0

Therefore, or, x= –24 (Which is impossible)

x=4

So the new dimensions are 12+4=16 inch and 8+4=12 inch.

8/10 or 8 out of 10 chance.
Both numbers are divisible by 2.

The graph of the function f(x) = (x + 2)(x − 4) is shown.
Which describes all of the values for which the graph is negative and increasing?
all real values of x where x < −2
all real values of x where −2 < x < 4
all real values of x where 1 < x < 4
all real values of x where x < 0

Answers

Answer:

all real values of x where 1 < x < 4

If there is anything you don't understand let me know.  Also, since the graph is supposedly shown you may even be able to get the information just by looking at the graph.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph  goes from being negative to positive (or the other way around) by passing through the x axis.  Or in other words when f(x) = 0.  So the trick is to find all 0s and then test if it is poitive or negative before and after the 0.  

f(x) = (x+2)(x-4) is in factored form, so it gives the 0s.  in factored form the 0s are the negatives of the numbers int he parenthesis.  Or in other words (x+a)(x+b) would have 0s at -a and -b.  Notie it is x+a but the 0 is at -a.  so for (x+2)(x-4) the zeroes would be -2 and 4.

Then checking, we can say it is positive before -2, negative after -2 up until 4, then it is positive again.

For increasing and decreasing for anything other than a quadratic and linear function you need calculus.  Since this is a quadratic though you don't need it.

With quadratics you need to know they have two parts.  An increasing part and decreasing part.  If you draw the graph of x^2 you can see it decreases until (0,0) then it starts increasing.  -x^2 is the opposite.  it won't always have the same changing point, but you can always tell if it increases first or decreases first.  You look at if the coefficient next to x^2 is positive of negative.  

In (x+2)(x-4) We have to expand first.  so it becomes x^2 - 2x - 8.  x^2 has 1 as its coefficent so we know it decreases first then increases.  Also looking at (x+2)(x-4) you could say since the two xs have the same sign we also know it would be that.  is one was positive and one negative, like (2x+1)(-3x+1) we would be able to say it increases first then decreases.  

To know when it switches, since it is in factored form you find the point in the middle of the two zeroes, and that is where it switches.  Since the zeroes are -2 and 4 we can say the middle (called the vertex) is at x=1 since it is 3 away from both 0s.  So it decreases up until 1 then increases.  

The different forms of quadratics have different easy methods of finding the vertex.

We could also actually use this information to say, since it is decreasing first we know it is positive before the first 0, then negative until the second 0, then positive again.  Still would have to find the 0s though.

So now we know it is positive and decreasing until x=-2, negative and decreasing until 1, negative and increasing until 4, then increasing after that.

Since you want negative and increasing, that is 1 < x < 4

Byron is 3 years older than Doug. The product of their ages is 40. How old Doug?
A. 10
B. 8
C. 5
D. 4

Answers

Answer:

Option B is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Doug is x years old, so Byron is x+3 years old. The product of their ages would then be x times x+3:

x(x+3) = 40

x2 + 3x = 40

x2 + 3x + 40 = 0

Now, factor the equation:

(x+8)(x-5) = 0

Then, solve for both values of x:

x+8 = 0

x = -8

x-5 = 0

x = 5

As no one can have a negative age, we simply disregard x=-8 as invalid. Therefore, Doug is 5 years old & Byron must be 5+3 - or 8 years old.

Hope it is helpful...

Answer:

Doug is 10 years old; option A

Step-by-step explanation:

set up expressions using the information you already know:

B (byron)

D (doug)

B = D + 3

B * D = 40

you can now solve by plugging in an expression for the variable B in the second equation.  

D + 3 * D = 40

D + 3D = 40

(combine like terms)

4D = 40

(divide by 4 on both sides to isolate the variable and balance the equation)

4D/4 = 40/4

D = 10

So, the answer is A; Doug is 10 years old

Answer:

acc.to ques

kiran's father is 8 years older than 3 times kiran's age ....which gives us the equation as follows

8+3x =65

therefore

3x =65-8

3x =57

x =57/3

x= 19 ans

so kiran's age is 19 years.

Answer:

kiran is 19 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

kiran's father age = 65

let kiran's age be x

kiran's father is 8 years older than three times kiran's age means 8 + 3x

so according to the question equation is

65 =  8 + 3x

65 - 8 = 3x

57/3 = x

19 = x

therefore kiran's age is 19 years.

A square with an area of A2 is enlarged to a square with an area of 25A2. How was the side of the smaller square changed?

The side length was increased by 5.
The side length was multiplied by 5.
The side length was increased by 10.
The side length was multiplied by 10.

Answers

Answer:

second option : the side length was multiplied by 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = side length of the original square

A² = a×a

(a+5)×(a+5) = a² + 10a + 25

and that should be equal to a²×25

a² + 10a + 25 = 25a² ?

10a + 25 = 24a²

no, that is not true for all a

a×5 × a×5 = a²×25 = 25A²

this is the correct solution, as it is true for all a.

For the area to be  25a², the side length was increased by 5.

How to calculate the area of a square

Let a be the side length of the original square, hence:

A = a²

Increasing the length by 5 will give:

(a+5)×(a+5) = a² + 10a + 25

Factorizing the result

a² + 10a + 25 = (a+5)²

a² + 10a + 25 = 25a²

This shows that for the area to be  25a², the side length was increased by 5.

BC = 6 cm AC = 5 cm BA = 4 cm The perimeter of triangle ABC = 12 cm. The area of triangle ABC is One-third the area of triangle DEF.

Answer:  

2. A-C = 5 cm

3. B-A = 4 cm

4. The perimeter of triangle A-B-C = 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, picture a triangle formed by points D-E-F.

Side F-D = 6 centimetersSide D-E = 10 centimetersSide F-E = 8 centimeters

Now,

the midpoint of side F-D is A ⇒ 6/2 = 3cmthe midpoint of side D-E is B ⇒ 10/2 = 5cmthe midpoint of side F-E is C ⇒ 8/2 = 4cm    

These values suggest that

Side F-A ⇒ 3 cm = Side B-C ⇒ 3cmSide E-B ⇒ 5 cm = Side A-C ⇒ 5cmSide F-C = E-C ⇒ 4cm = Side A-B ⇒ 4cm

The perimeter of the interior triangle ABC = 3cm + 5cm + 4cm = 12 cm

The total area of the interior triangle ABC is 1/4 the area of triangle DEF. You can see in the picture that there are four equal triangles inside DEF.
