The team mascot shoots a rolled T-shirt from a special T-shirt cannon to a section of people in the stands at a basketball game.

The T-shirt starts at a height of 8 feet when it leaves the cannon and 1 second later reaches a maximum height of 24 feet before coming back down to a lucky winner.
If the path of the T-shirt is represented by a parabola, which function could be used to represent the height of the T-shirt as a function of time, t, in seconds?

f(t) = –16(t – 1)2 + 24
f(t) = –16(t + 1)2 + 24
f(t) = –16(t – 1)2 – 24
f(t) = –16(t + 1)2 – 24

A hospital bill is estimated to be $462.00. It ends up actually costing the patient $525.00. What is the percent error in the bi
Mamont248 [21]
In order to find the percent error, we need to first find the difference between what was expected and what is actually costed. We do this by subtracting:

525-462=63

So now we know that the expected amount was off by $63. To find the percent error, we need to take this $63, and divide it by the amount that was estimated. Let's do that now:

\frac{63}{462}=0.1364

However this is in decimal form. We need to multiply by 100 in order to get it in a percent:

0.1364*100=13.64%

Now we know that the percent error of the hospital bill estimate is 13.64%.

Which congruence theorems can be used to prove ΔEFG ≅ ΔJHG? Select two options.

<h2><u><em>Answer: </em></u></h2><h2><u><em> </em></u></h2>

ASA  and AAS

<h2><u><em>Step-by-step explanation: </em></u></h2>

We do not know if these are right triangles; therefore we cannot use HL to prove congruence.

We do not have 2 or 3 sides marked congruent; therefore we cannot use SSS or SAS to prove congruence.

We are given that EF is parallel to HJ.  This makes EJ a transversal.  This also means that ∠HJG and ∠GEF are alternate interior angles and are therefore congruent.  We also know that ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent.  This gives us two angles and a non-included side, which is the AAS congruence theorem.

Since EF and HJ are parallel and EJ is a transversal, ∠JHG and ∠EFG are alternate interior angles and are congruent.  Again we have that ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent; this gives us two angles and an included side, which is the ASA congruence theorem.

The amount of time (t) in minutes it takes Jeff to mow an average sized yard is related to (n) the number of yards he mows. The
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Jeff mows 9 yards of lawn in 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that models the amount of time (t) in minutes it takes Jeff to mow an average sized yard is t=2n+12, where n is the number of yards he mows.

To find the number of yards Jeff mows in 30 minutes, we set the equation to 30 and solve for n.

\implies 2n+12=30

Add -12 to both sides:

\implies 2n=30-12

\implies 2n=18

Divide both sides by 2

\implies \frac{2n}{2}=\frac{18}{2}

\implies n=9

Hence Jeff mows 9 yards of lawn in 30 minutes.

The shorter sides of an acute triangle are x cm and 2x cm. The longest side of the triangle is 15 cm. What is the smallest possi
Ierofanga [76]
For an acute angled triangle 

h^2 < x^2 + y^2      where h = longest side and x and y are the other 2 sides.

so here we have

15^2 <  x^2 + (2x)^2

15^2 <  5x^2

x^2 >  15*3 = 45
x > sqrt 45 or x > 6.7

So smallest whole number value of  x is 7
