<em>Sample:</em>

<em>No, Felicia’s answer is not correct. She should have divided by 2, not multiplied. 30 divided by 2 is 15. So 15 of the 50 students in the band are boys.</em>

a golfer needs to hit a ball a distance of 500 feet, but there is a 60-foot tall tree that is 100 feet in front of the point whe
jok3333 [9.3K]

We can create a parabola equation of the trajectory using the vertex form:

y = a (x – h)^2 + k

 

The center is at h and k, where h and k are the points at the maximum height so:

h = 250

k = 120

 

Therefore:

 y = a (x – 250)^2 + 120

 

At the initial point, x = 0, y = 0, so we can solve for a:

0 = a (0 – 250)^2 + 120

0 = a (62,500) + 120

a = -0.00192

 

So the whole equation is:

y = -0.00192 (x – 250)^2 + 120

 

So find for y when the golf ball is above the tree, x = 400:

y = -0.00192 (400 - 250)^2 + 120

y = 76.8 ft

 

So the ball cleared the tree by:

76.8 ft – 60 ft = 16.8 ft

 

 

Answer:

16.8 ft

Last year Boris paid £256 for his car insurance.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The percentage increase in the cost of Boris car insurance cost is 249%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we want to calculate the percentage increase in the cost of car insurance paid by Boris

Mathematically, to calculate this percentage increase, we shall need to make use of a mathematical formula.

Mathematically, the percentage increase would be;

{(new value paid-old value paid)/old value paid} * 100%

From the question, we can identify that the old value paid is £256 while the new value paid is £894

Thus, the percentage increase would be ;

(894-256)/256 * 100% = 638/256 * 100 = 2.4921875 * 100 = 249.21875 which is 249% increase to the nearest whole percentage

Sarah received \$55$55dollar sign, 55 for her birthday. She used some of that money to buy 333 shirts priced at mmm dollars each
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

$(55-3m) is the amount of money she has left

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to give an expression to represent how much money was left after Sarah had bought some certain stuffs at some prices using the money she received at her birthday.

Firstly, we identify that the total amount of money she has to spend is $55.

Now let’s project her total spendings. She bought 3 shirts with each shirt costing $m.

The total amount spent on the shirts is thus; 3 * $m = $3m

The amount of money she has left is the difference.

Mathematically, this is equal to $55 - $3m
