Suppose a certain baseball diamond is a square 65 feet on a side. The pitching rubber is located 41.5 feet from home plate on a

line joining homeplate and second base.
a. How far is it from the pitching rubber to first base?
b. How far is it from the pitching rubber to second base?
c. If a pitcher faces home plate, through what angle does he need to turn to face first base?​

Answer:

<h2>a. 41.5 ft</h2><h2>b. 41.5 ft.</h2><h2>c. 90°.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that a baseball diamond is a square, which means all sides are equal. In this case, each side is 65 feet long.

It's important that a square is a symmetric figure, as a symmetric quadrilateral, its diagonals are congruent and the bisect each other. That means that the distance from every corner to the center is the same.

a. Based on square definitions, the distance from the pitching rubber to first base is 41.5 feet.

b. Based on square definitions, the distance from the pitching rubber to second base is 41.5 feet.

c. if the pitcher faces the home plate, he needs to turn his 90° to face the first base, that is because diagonals are perpendicular each other, which means they have a right angle between.

FWML is a parallelogram. Find the values of x and y. Solve for the value of z, if z=x−y
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

x=5

y=8

z=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a parallelogram. We are asked to solve for the values of x and y.

We know that opposite sides of parallelogram are equal, so we can set equation as:

3x-3=x+7

3x-x-3=x-x+7

2x-3=7

2x-3+3=7+3

2x=10

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{10}{2}

x=5

Similarly, we will solve for y.

2y-6=y+2

2y-y-6=y-y+2

y-6=2

y-6+6=2+6

y=8

To solve for z, we will subtract y from x as:

z=x-y\\z=5-8\\z=-3

Therefore, the value of z is negative 3.

Suppose that a company's sales were $1,000,000 6 years ago and are $9,000,000 at the end of the 6 years. Find the geometric mean
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The geometric mean growth rate of sales is 1.4422.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two sales values, one from 6 years ago and the other from now.

We have to calculate the geometric growth rate of sales.

We have:

y(-6)=1,000,000\\\\y(0)=9,000,000

We can write the relation between these two values as:

y(0)=y(-6)k^{0-(-6)}\\\\9,000,000=1,000,000k^6\\\\k^6=9\\\\k=9^{1/6}= 1.4422

The geometric mean growth rate of sales is 1.4422.
