The correct question is:

Jane buys 7/3 yards of fabric to make a cat bed. She starts the project by cutting 4 feet of fabric off the end. How many feet long is the remaining piece of fabric?

Answer:

There are 3 feet remaining.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jane cuts 4 feet from 7/3 yards, to know how many feet long yard is remaining, first we need to know how many feet make a yard, convert 7/3 yards to feet, and find the difference between the feet cut and the total feet available.

3 feet = 1 yard

x feet = 7/3 yards

3 × 7/3 = x × 1

x = 7

Therefore, 7 feet is 7/3 yards.

Now, she cuts 4 feet, do we have

(7 - 4 = 3) feet remaining.

Therefore, there are 3 feet remaining.

Which equation is y = 3(x – 2)2 – (x – 5)2 rewritten in vertex form? Y = 3 (x minus seven-halves) squared minus StartFraction 27
densk [106]

Answer: y = 2 (x minus one-half) squared minus StartFraction 27 Over 2 EndFraction

or

y=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2)-\dfrac{27}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form of equation : f (x) = a(x - h)^2 + k,where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

y=3(x-2)^2-(x-5)^2\\\\=3(x^2+4-4x)-(x^2+25-10x)\\\\=3x^2+12-12x-x^2-25+10x\\\\=2x^2-2x-13\\\\=2(x^2-x-\dfrac{13}{2})\\\\=2(x^2-x+\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{13}{2})\\\\=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2-\dfrac{1+26}{4})\\\\=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2-\dfrac{27}{4})=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2)-\dfrac{27}{2}

Hence, the vertex form of the equation is y=2((x-\dfrac{1}{2})^2)-\dfrac{27}{2}

A satellite in a 100-mile-high circular orbit around Earth has a velocity of approximately 17,500 miles per hour.If this velocit
AveGali [126]

Answer:

64.3 miles ( D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Circular orbit height ( from the center of the earth ) = 100 mile

angle between satellite and earth = 50°

escape velocity = √2 * 17500 =  24748.73 miles /hour

distance between surface of earth and satellite

x = cos ∅

∴ Cos ∅  = x / 100

x = cos 50° * 100   ≈ 64.3 miles

For the wheat-yield distribution of Exercise 4.3.5, find
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

a) 90.695 lb

b) 85.305 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 88, \sigma = 7

(a) The 65th percentile

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.65. So X when Z = 0.385.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

0.385 = \frac{X - 88}{7}

X - 88 = 7*0.385

X = 90.695

(b) The 35th percentile

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.35. So X when Z = -0.385.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-0.385 = \frac{X - 88}{7}

X - 88 = 7*(-0.385)

X = 85.305
