Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

answer is

-0.245 \pm2.160(0.205)

Step-by-step explanation:

After working this way for 6 months he takes a simple random sample of 15 days. He records how long he walked that day (in hours) as recorded by his fitness watch as well as his billable hours for that day as recorded by a work app on his computer.

Slope is -0.245

Sample size  n = 15

Standard error is 0.205

Confidence level 95

Sognificance level is (100 - 95)% = 0.05

Degree of freedom is n -2 = 15 -2 = 13

Critical Value =2.16 = [using excel = TINV (0.05, 13)]

Marginal Error = Critical Value * standard error

= 2.16 * 0.205

= 0.4428

-0.245 \pm2.160(0.205)

Which statement is not used to prove that ΔABC is similar to ΔADE? triangles ABC and ADE in which point E is between points A an
Levart [38]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements are analysed as follows

1. Angle A is congruent to itself reflective property

Which shows that ΔABC and ΔADE have a common and equal angle

2. Segment ED and CB are parallel

From the transversal line passing EB and CB which shows that the angles ∠ADE and ∠ABC are equal and also ∠AED and ∠ACB are equal

The statement is used to prove similarity between the ΔABC and ΔADE

3. The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C

The above statements relates to only ΔABC and i does not show similarity between ΔABC and ΔADE.

The equation h(t) = -16t² + 80t + 64 represented the height, in feet, of a potato t seconds after it has been launched.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Part A) The potato hit the ground at t=5.70 seconds (see the explanation)

Part B) The potato is 40 feet off the ground at the time t=5.28 seconds (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

h(t)=-16t^2+80t+64

where

h(t) is the height of a potato in feet

t is the time in seconds

Part A)  Write an equation that can be solved to find when the potato hits the ground. Then solve the equation

we know that

When the potato hit the ground, the value of h(t) must be equal to zero

so

For h(t)=0

-16t^2+80t+64=0

Solve the quadratic equation

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

-16t^2+80t+64=0

so

a=-16\\b=80\\c=64

substitute in the formula

t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-16)(64)}} {2(-16)}

t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}

t=\frac{-80+\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}=-0.70

t=\frac{-80-\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}=5.70

therefore

The potato hit the ground at t=5.70 seconds

Part B) Write an equation that can be solved to find when the potato is 40 feet off the ground. Then solve the equation

For h(t)=40 ft

substitute in the quadratic equation

-16t^2+80t+64=40

-16t^2+80t+24=0

Solve the quadratic equation

we have

a=-16\\b=80\\c=24

substitute in the formula

t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-16)(24)}} {2(-16)}

t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}

t=\frac{-80+\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}=-0.28

t=\frac{-80-\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}=5.28

therefore

The potato is 40 feet off the ground at the time t=5.28 seconds
