A police officer investigating a car accident finds a skid mark of 115 ft in length.

How fast was the car going when the driver hit the brakes?
Round your answer to the nearest mile per hour.

mph

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed of car = 49 mph (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of skid marked = 115 ft

Formula for skid mark = S = √21d

Where d = Length of skid marked

Find:

Speed of car

Computation:

Speed of car = √21d

Speed of car = √21(115)

Speed of car = √2,415

Speed of car = 49.1426

Speed of car = 49 mph (Approx.)

Diane bought new headphones originally listed for $70.99. They are 25% off. Which equation can be used to find the amount Diane will save?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

100% = $70.99

there is a discount of 25%.

that means 75% (100 - 25) of the original price remains.

the equation to get any x% amount of a 100% total is simply

x% amount = 100% total amount × x/100

25% = 70.99 × 25/100 = $17.75

Find two numbers that have 2, 5, and 7 as factors.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

One easy way to find a number that has all of these numbers as factors is to multiply them all together, so 2 * 5 * 7 = 10 * 7 = 70, which is one number.

To find the other number, we can multiply the number we already have by any integer greater than 1, e.g. 2, to get 70* 2= 140 as our other number, making our numbers 70 and 140

X^2 + bx + 49 is a perfect squad trinomial what is one possible value of b?

Answers

a perfect square trinomial, (x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²

so, if we have the x of the bx, what is left is the b

the expression would have to be (x + 7)², since we have the 49 and the x²

so, what's left: x² + 14x + 49,

b = 14

Consider the sequence {an}={3n+13n−3n3n+1}. Graph this sequence and use your graph to help you answer the following questions.

Answers

Part 1: You can simplify [tex]a_n[/tex] to

[tex]\dfrac{3n+1}{3n}-\dfrac{3n}{3n+1} = \dfrac1{3n}+\dfrac1{3n+1}[/tex]

Presumably, the sequence starts at n = 1. It's easy to see that the sequence is strictly decreasing, since larger values of n make either fraction smaller.

(a) So, the sequence is bounded above by its first value,

[tex]|a_n| \le a_1 = \dfrac13+\dfrac14 = \boxed{\dfrac7{12}}[/tex]

(b) And because both fractions in [tex]a_n[/tex] converge to 0, while remaining positive for any natural number n, the sequence is bounded below by 0,

[tex]|a_n| \ge \boxed{0}[/tex]

(c) Finally, [tex]a_n[/tex] is bounded above and below, so it is a bounded sequence.

Part 2: Yes, [tex]a_n[/tex] is monotonic and strictly decreasing.

Part 3:

(a) I assume the choices are between convergent and divergent. Any monotonic and bounded sequence is convergent.

(b) Since [tex]a_n[/tex] is decreasing and bounded below by 0, its limit as n goes to infinity is 0.

Part 4:

(a) We have

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{10n^2+1}{n^2+n} = \lim_{n\to\infty}10+\frac1{n^2}}{1+\frac1n} = 10[/tex]

and the (-1)ⁿ makes this limit alternate between -10 and 10. So the sequence is bounded but clearly not monotonic, and hence divergent.

(b) Taking the limit gives

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{10n^3+1}{n^2+n} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{10+\frac1{n^3}}{\frac1n+\frac1{n^2}} = \infty[/tex]

so the sequence is unbounded and divergent. It should also be easy to see or establish that the sequence is strictly increasing and thus monotonic.

For the next three, I'm guessing the options here are something to the effect of "does", "may", or "does not".

(c) may : the sequence in (a) demonstrates that a bounded sequence need not converge

(d) does not : a monotonic sequence has to be bounded in order to converge, otherwise it grows to ± infinity.

(e) does : this is true and is known as the monotone convergence theorem.

Answers

Answer:

x = 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

x is sin(angle 24/30)×24

how do we get the angle at 24/30 ?

by using the extended Pythagoras for baselines opposite other than 90 degrees.

c² = a² + b² - 2ab×cos(angle opposite of c)

in our example the angle 24/30 is opposite of the side 18.

so,

18² = 24² + 30² - 2×24×30×cos(angle 24/30)

324 = 576 + 900 - 1440×cos(angle 24/30)

324 = 1476 - 1440×cos(angle 24/30)

1440×cos(angle 24/30) = 1152

cos(angle 24/30) = 1152/1440 = 576/720 = 288/360 = 144/180 = 72/90 = 36/45 = 12/15 = 4/5

angle 24/30 = 36.9 degrees

x = sin(36.9) × 24 = 14.4

Given :

Sample size, = n

Standard deviation, = 6000

Margin of Error = 2000

Confidence interval, α = 95%

Zcritical at 95% = 1.96

n = (Zcritical * σ) / margin of error

n = (1.96 * 6000) /2000

n = 11760 / 2000

This value of x makes the exterior angles at E and F be 72° and 144°, respectively. The internal angles at E, F, G are then 108°, 36°, 36°, making the triangle isosceles with EF = EG.

Now suppose that not every player can play in every position. The outfielders (left field, center field, right field) can play any outfield position, the infielders (1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, short stop) can play any infield position, the pitchers can only pitch, and the catchers can only catch. Suppose a certain team has 20 players, of whom 3 are catchers, 4 are outfielders, 6 are infielders, and 7 are pitchers.
How many ways can the team assign field positions to 9 of the 19 players, putting each of the 9 selected players in a position he can play, and ensuring that all 9 field positions are filled?

Answers

Answer:

The team can assign field positions to 9 of the 19 players in 181,440 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the outfielders (left field, center field, right field) can play any outfield position, the infielders (1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, short stop) can play any infield position, the pitchers can only pitch, and the catchers can only catch, supposing a certain team has 20 players, of whom 3 are catchers, 4 are outfielders, 6 are infielders, and 7 are pitchers, to determine how many ways can the team assign field positions to 9 of the 19 players, putting each of the 9 selected players in a position he can play, and ensuring that all 9 field positions are filled, the following calculation must be performed:

3 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 4 x 3 x 2 = X

21 x 30 x 12 x 24 = X

630 x 12 x 24 = X

181,440 = X

Therefore, the team can assign field positions to 9 of the 19 players in 181,440 different ways.

At a concession stand; three hot dogs and two hamburgers cost $9.75; two hot dogs and three hamburgers cost $10.25. Find the cost of one hot dog and the cost of one hamburger.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

hot dog: $1.75hamburger: $2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the cost of a hot dog and a hamburger, respectively. The the two purchases can be described by ...

  3x +2y -9.75 = 0

  2x +3y -10.25 = 0

We can list the coefficients of these general-form equations in 2 rows, listing the first one again at the end:

  3, 2, -9.75, 3

  2, 3, -10.25, 2

Now, we can form differences of cross-products in adjacent pairs of columns:

  d1 = (3)(3) -(2)(2) = 9 -4 = 5

  d2 = (2)(-10.25) -(3)(-9.75) = -20.50 +29.25 = 8.75

  d3 = (-9.75)(2) -(-10.25)(3) = -19.50 +30.75 = 11.25

Then the solutions are found from ...

  1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3

  x = d2/d1 = 8.75/5 = 1.75

  y = d3/d1 = 11.25/5 = 2.25

The cost of one hot dog is $1.75; the cost of one hamburger is $2.25.

What would be surface area of that hundredth.

Why hundredth? Because percent denotes hundredths cent is a latin word for hundred. You would usually encounter similar word that describes 100 years: century.

Well it is actually very easy. Just divide 2851 into 100 pieces and look at what is the area of one piece.

So a single piece has an area of 258.1.
