$\£8:\£32$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{40}{1+4}$

$\frac{40}{5}$

$=8$

$1:4$

$1 \times 8:4 \times 8$

Answer:

Tim gets £8

Sam gets £32

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio is 1:4

So, Total parts are 1+4 = 5

Dividing it by total parts

= $\frac{40}{5}$

= £ 8

So, Tim gets £8

But,

Sam gets 4(£8)

= Sam gets £32

Gianna is going to throw a ball from the top floor of her middle school. When she throws the ball from 32feet above the ground,

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

There are two times for the ball to reach a height of 64 feet:

1 second after thrown ⇒ the ball moves upward

2 seconds after thrown ⇒ the ball moves downward

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the function to solve the problem

- h(t) models the height of the ball above the ground as a function

of the time t

- h(t) = -16t² + 48t + 32

- Where h(t) is the height of the ball from the ground after t seconds

- The ball is thrown upward with initial velocity 48 feet/second

- The ball is thrown from height 32 feet above the ground

- The acceleration of the gravity is -32 feet/sec²

- To find the time when the height of the ball is above the ground

by 64 feet substitute h by 64

∵ h(t) = -16t² + 48t + 32

∵ h = 64

∴ 64 = -16t² + 48t + 32 ⇒ subtract 64 from both sides

∴ 0 = -16t² + 48t - 32 ⇒ multiply the both sides by -1

∴ 16t² - 48t + 32 = 0 ⇒ divide both sides by 16 because all terms have

16 as a common factor

∴ t² - 3t + 2 = 0 ⇒ factorize it

∴ (t - 2)(t - 1) = 0

- Equate each bracket by zero to find t

∴ t - 2 = 0 ⇒ add 2 to both sides

∴ t = 2

- OR

∴ t - 1 = 0 ⇒ add 1 to both sides

∴ t = 1

- That means the ball will be at height 64 feet after 1 second when it

moves up and again at height 64 feet after 2 seconds when it

moves down

* There are two times for the ball to reach a height of 64 feet

1 second after thrown ⇒ the ball moves upward

2 seconds after thrown ⇒ the ball moves downward

Part B

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Part A) The length of a straight line between the school and the Fire Station is $4.6\ miles$

Part B) The length of a straight line between the school and the hospital is $2.1\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

Let

The positive x-coordinates ----> East

The positive y-coordinates ----> North

The negative x-coordinates ----> West

The negative y-coordinates ----> South

take the point A (0,0) as the Middle School (reference point)

Part A) we have

Town Hall is located 4.3 miles directly east of the Middle School

The coordinates of Town Hall are B(4.3,0)

The Fire Station is located 1.7 miles directly North of Town Hall

The coordinates of Fire Station are C(4.3,1.7)

What is the length of a straight line between the school and the Fire Station?

Remember that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

A(0,0) and C(4.3,1.7)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(1.7-0)^{2}+(4.3-0)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(1.7)^{2}+(4.3)^{2}}$

$d=4.6\ miles$

Part B) we have that

The hospital is 3.1 miles west of the fire station

The coordinates of the hospital are D(4.3-3.1,1.7)

D(1.2,1.7)

What is the length of a straight line between the school and the hospital?

Remember that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

A(0,0) and D(1.2,1.7)

substitute

$d=\sqrt{(1.7-0)^{2}+(1.2-0)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(1.7)^{2}+(1.2)^{2}}$

$d=2.1\ miles$

The table shows data from a survey about the number of times families eat at restaurants during a week. The families are either

Gala2k [10]

To solve this problem, let us first define what is mean and median. Mean is the average of all the numbers in the data set while the median is the number in the middle of the data set in ascending order.

If we create a box plot for the data of Rome and New York, we can see that there is an outlier in the data for New York. Since New York has an outlier, so the mean is not a good representation on the central tendency of the data. The mean is skewed (distorted) by the outlier. So in this case it is better to use the median.

While the Rome data is nice and symmetrical, it does not seem to have an outlier, so we can use the mean for this data set.

Therefore the answer is:

The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The New York data center is best described by the median
