During batting practice, two pop flies are hit from the same location, 2 s apart. The paths are modeled by the equations h = -16

t^2 + 56t and h = -16t^2 + 156t - 248, where t is the time that has passed since the first ball was hit. Explain how to find the height at which the balls meet. Then find the height to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

2.5 seconds since the first ball was hit.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations that model the heights are:

  • h = -16t² + 56t
  • h = -16t² + 156t - 248

When the balls meet, both heights are equal, therefore:

-16t² + 56t = -16t² + 156t - 248

-16t² + 56t + 16t² - 156t + 248 = 0

- 100t + 248 = 0

248 = 100t

248/100 = t

t = 2.48 ≈ 2.5

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

P(X

And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard tabe and we got:

P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the temperatures of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(123.8,3.1)  

Where \mu=123.8 and \sigma=3.1

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard tabe and we got:

P(z

How do you break apart the factor 42 using place value?
worty [1.4K]

Hey there!☺

Let's break apart 42.

The 4 is in the tens. The 2 is in the ones.

                            Place Value starting from Thousands

                             Thousands  Hundreds  Tens  Ones

                             _________ ________ ____ _____

                                                                        4          2

So this is how we break up numbers using place value.

Hope this helps!

Sadie simplified the expression StartRoot 54 a Superscript 7 b cubed EndRoot, where a greater-than-or-equal-to 0, as shown colon
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Sadie's error is " she made error in step 2 =\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}  where a\geqslant 0"

Because she made error in splitting the powers to simplify the square root

<h3>Therefore the correct answer for Sadie's expression is 3ab\sqrt{6ab} where a\geqslant 0</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that " Sadie simplified the expression StartRoot 54 a Superscript 7 b cubed EndRoot, where a greater-than-or-equal-to 0, "

It can be written as \sqrt{54a^7b^3} where a\geqslant 0

The given expression is \sqrt{54a^7b^3} where a\geqslant 0

To find Sadie's error and explain the correct answer :

Sadie's steps are

\sqrt{54a^7b^3}  where a\geqslant 0

=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}

=3ab\sqrt{6a^5b}

<h3>\sqrt{54a^7b^3}=3ab\sqrt{6a^5b} where a\geqslant 0</h3><h3><u>Now corrected steps are</u></h3>

\sqrt{54a^7b^3}  where a≥0

=\sqrt{(9\times 6)(a^{6+1})(b^{2+1})

=\sqrt{(3^2\times 6)(a^6.a^1)(b^2.b^1) (by using the identity a^{m+n}=a^m.a^n

=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times ((a^3)^2.a)(b^2.b) (by using the identity a^{mn}=(a^m)^n )

=3ab\sqrt{6ab}

Therefore \sqrt{54a^7b^3}=3ab\sqrt{6ab}  where a\geqslant 0

<h3>The correct answer is 3ab\sqrt{6ab} where a\geqslant 0</h3>

Sadie's error is " she made error in step 2 =\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b} " where a\geqslant 0

Because she made error in splitting the powers to simplify the square root

<h3>Therefore the correct answer for Sadie's expression is 3ab\sqrt{6ab} where a\geqslant 0</h3>

Ling lives 2 miles from school. It took him 15 minutes to bike from school to home. The first half of the distance he biked at a
lisov135 [29]
1 mile at 12 m/h is .2 m/min
1 mile at .2 m/min (1/.2) = 5 min So the first mile took 5 minutes
To find how fast the second mile was:
You know it was 1 mile and it took 10 minutes
1/10=.1 m/min which is 6 m/h
The average speed is 6+12/2=9 m/h

Hope that helps.  Feel free to ask any questions.
