Answer:

The total change in the altitude of the parachute after 4 minutes is 92 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the total change in the altitude of the parachute.

The rate of change per minute = 28 ft/m

Now in 4 minutes, the total altitude change will be;

28 ft/min * 4 min = 92 ft

In 4 minutes, there would have been a change of 92 ft in the altitude of the parachute

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

(A)

P(X \geq 0.8) = \int\limits_{0.8}^{\infty} f(x) \, dx  = \int\limits_{0.8}^{1} 1.25(1-x^4) \, dx = 0.08192

(B)

Then the cumulative function would be

CF(x) = 1.25x - 0.25x^5       if   0<x<1

0 otherwise.

Step-by-step explanation:

(A)

We are looking for the probability that the random variable X is greater than 0.8.

P(X \geq 0.8) = \int\limits_{0.8}^{\infty} f(x) \, dx  = \int\limits_{0.8}^{1} 1.25(1-x^4) \, dx = 0.08192

(B)

For any  x you are looking for the probability P(X \geq x)  which is

P(X \geq x)  = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{x}  1.25(1-t^4) dt = \int\limits_{0}^{x}  1.25(1-t^4) dt = 1.25x - 0.25x^2

Then the cumulative function would be

CF(x) = 1.25x - 0.25x^5       if   0<x<1

0 otherwise.

Yun was trying to factor 7x^2-14x7x
disa [49]

the width of Yun's area model is 7x units or ( x-2 )units .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Yun was trying to factor 7x^2-14x.  He found that the greatest common factor of these terms was 7x and made an area model:  What is the width of Yun's area model. Let's find out:

We know that area of rectangle :

⇒ Area = length(width)  .........(1)

Now , According to question we have

⇒ Area = 7x^2-14x

⇒ Area = 7x(x-2)

Comparing this equation to equation (1) we get that :

⇒ width = 7x or , width =x -2

Therefore , the width of Yun's area model is 7x units or ( x-2 )units .

Mikela claims that the sum of any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers. Jim claims that the sum of any two
qaws [65]

<u>ANSWER:  </u>

The statement of Jim is correct

<u>SOLUTION:  </u>

Given statements are  

Mikela claims that sum of any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.  

Jim claims that the sum of any two natural numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.

Let a,b be the two numbers and a is the greatest of a and b

According to the mikela statement = a + b > a

b > a – a

b > 0

Here, we got an condition that b > 0, but it may not be true always.  

Above condition fails when b is either 0 or negative number.  

Jim - sum of any two natural numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.

Let a,b be the two natural numbers. And a is the greatest of a and b

According to the jim statement  =  a + b > a

b > a – a

b > 0

Here, we got an condition that b > 0,

And this statement will always be true because b is an natural number, so it will be greater than 0.

Hence jim’s statement is true.

In ΔXYZ, x = 71 cm, y = 91 cm and z=71 cm. Find the area of ΔXYZ to the nearest square centimeter.
anyanavicka [17]

since its an isoscelies trangle, they probably wanted you to do base times height

make a 71-91/2-x x triangle

where x is the height of the triangle to the base 91 and 71 is the hypothenuse

and then do bh/2

or

use heron's formula

s= 71+91/2

area= \sqrt{(71+91/2)(71+91/2-71)(71+91/2-71)(71+91/2-91)}

have fun solving that
