Kendra dives off a diving board into the water and then comes back up to the surface. Her dive can be modeled by the equation: , where "h" is the height in feet and "x" is the horizontal distance in feet from the diving board. 1) How high is the diving board? 2) How deep does the diver dive into the water? 3) At what horizontal distance from the board does the diver enter the water? 4) At what horizontal distance from the board does the diver come to the surface of the water after the dive?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 6 feet

2. 6.25 feet

3. 1 feet

4. 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is : [tex]$h(x)=x^2-7x+6$[/tex]

1. The diving board is where Kendra dives off. Here, the horizontal distance, x from the diving board is 0.

So, substituting x = 0 in the equation, we get

[tex]$h(0)=0^2-7(0)+6$[/tex]

       [tex]$=0-0+6$[/tex]

       [tex]$=6$[/tex]

So, the diving board is 6 feet above the surface of the water.

2. From the equation, we known that it is a parabola and the vertex is minimum.

   It is the minimum height which represents the depth Kendra dives into the water.

So the [tex]$x$[/tex] coordinate of the vertex is = [tex]$\frac{-b}{2a}$[/tex]

Here, a and b are the coefficients of linear term and the quadratic terms in the equation. Therefore,

a = 1 and b = -7

∴  x coordinate = [tex]$\frac{-(-7)}{2 \times 1} $[/tex]

                         [tex]$\frac{7}{2}=3.5$[/tex]

Now substituting to find f(x),

[tex]$h(3.5)=(3.5)^2-7(3.5)+6$[/tex]

         = -6.25

Therefore, the diver dives 6.25 feet below the water surface.

3. The horizontal distance from the board the diver enters into the water.

This is the y-intercept and it is the value of x when h(x)=0.

∴ [tex]$0=x^2-7x+6$[/tex]

Factorizing, we get   [tex]$(x-1)(x-6)=0$[/tex]

∴ [tex]$x=1 \text{ or}\ x=6$[/tex]

So there are two solutions that are the two x intercepts of the function. Here at x = 1 shows the horizontal distance from the board from where Kendra dives into the water.

4. We know that the equation given has [tex]$\text{two}$[/tex] x intercepts. These two x intercepts  are the points where the parabola crosses the x-axis, which is the height [tex]$h(x)=0$[/tex]. The height is the water surface level.

The first x intercept represents the points where Kendra dives into the water.

And the second x intercept is the point where Kendra comes out of the water surface. This this is [tex]$x=6$[/tex] for [tex]$h(x)=0$[/tex].

Thus Kendra dives out of the water surface at 6 feet from the board.

A salesman at a clothing store makes a sale to 30% of the customers he talks to, and wants to try out a new tecnique to see if he can change this rate. He decides to collect data for a few months on the percentage of customers he makes a sale to, and he is able to construct a 95% confidence interval of (.3095, .3275). Is there evidence at 5% significance that he has changed his average sales?

Answers

Answer:

Yes, we can conclude that average sales has changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis, H0 : μ = 0.3

The alternative ; H0 : μ ≠ 0.3

The result of the 95% confidence interval of (.3095, .3275); This shows that the confidence interval is now between 30.95% and 32.75% ; since μ does not lie within the confidence interval value and the lower boundary of the confidence interval is > 30; we Can conclude with an evidence of 5% significance that his average sales as changed (increased).

We can reject H0 and conclude that μ > 0.3

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Length = [tex]12\dfrac{3}{4}\ yards[/tex]

Width = [tex]5\dfrac{2}{3}\ yards[/tex]

Depth = 9 yards

We need to find the volume of the swimming pool. The formula for the volume of a cuboid shape is given by :

[tex]V=lbh\\\\V=12\dfrac{3}{4}\times 5\dfrac{2}{3}\times 9\\\\=\dfrac{51}{4}\times \dfrac{17}{3}\times 9\\\\V=650.25\ yards^3[/tex]

So, the volume of the swimming pool is equal to [tex]650.25\ yards^3[/tex].

The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we have the equation of the axis of symmetry as;

x = -b/2a

where a is the coefficient of x^2 = 1

b is the coefficient of x which is -14

So, the equation of the axis of symmetry will be;

x = -(-14)/2(1) = 14/2 = 7

So the equation of the axis of symmetry is x =7

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Is that a misshapen circle or is it an ellipse? I'm going to assume it is a circle, but if I am wrong, leave a comment. A tangent will meet a diameter's end at right angles which allows you to use the Pythagorean theorem.

Formula

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Givens

c = 12

a = 9.6

b = ?

Solution

c^2 - a^2 = b^2

144 - 92.16 = b^2

b^2 = 51.84                          Take the square root of both sides

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(51.84)

b = 7.2

James is solving a number puzzle that involves three integers, a, b, and c, where c is a positive integer. The product of a and b is 6. The product of a and c is -4. The product of b and c is -6.

Answers

Given:

Three integers, a, b, and c, where c is a positive integer.

The product of a and b is 6.

The product of a and c is -4.

The product of b and c is -6.

To find:

The values of a,b and c.

Solution:

According to the given information:

[tex]ab=6[/tex]        ...(i)

[tex]ac=-4[/tex]       ...(ii)

[tex]bc=-6[/tex]      ...(iii)

From (ii), we get

[tex]a=-\dfrsc{4}{c}[/tex]          ...(iv)

From (iii), we get

[tex]b=-\dfrsc{6}{c}[/tex]         ...(v)

Putting [tex]a=-\dfrsc{4}{c}[/tex]  and [tex]b=-\dfrsc{6}{c}[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]\dfrac{-4}{c}\times \dfrac{-6}{c}=6[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{24}{c^2}=6[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{24}{6}=c^2[/tex]

[tex]4=c^2[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides, we get

[tex]\pm \sqrt{4}=c[/tex]

[tex]\pm 2=c[/tex]

It is given that c is a positive integer. So, it cannot be negative and the only value of c is [tex]c=2[/tex].

Putting [tex]c=2[/tex] in (iv), we get

[tex]a=-\dfrsc{4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a=-2[/tex]

Putting [tex]c=2[/tex] in (v), we get

[tex]b=-\dfrsc{6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]b=-3[/tex]

Therefore, the values of a,b,c are [tex]a=-2,b=-3,c=2[/tex].

(8,1), (-2,-5) midepoint

Answers

Answer:

(3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coordinate of the midpoint of the line segment connecting (8, 1) and (-2, -5) is -2 plus half the horizontal distance from -2 to 8, which is 10, or 5.  We add 5 to -2, obtaining 3 units.

The y-coordinate of the midpoint is found similarly.  The vertical distance between the two given points is 1 - (-5), or 6 units.  Half of that is 3 units.  Adding 3 units to -5 yields -2.

The midpoint is (3, -2).

Thus, the coordinates of the midpoint at (-7, 6)
