An athletics squad trains on a long straight track with dots marked at 10m intervals. The coach sets out cones on some of the dots for the squad's sprint training drills. She wants the squad to be able to run any distance which is a multiple of 10m, up to some maximum distance which depends on the number of cones.


Explain why it is not possible to place four cones A, B, C, D, in a line so that each multiple of 10m up to 70m can be run between two of the cones.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 6 ways to run 10 m between two cones of the four cones giving a maximum available distance to run as 60 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are

Distance between two cones = 10 m

Number of cones = 4

Therefore, number of ways to choose two 10 m distances (distance between two cones) from the four cones = [tex]\binom{4}{2}[/tex] = 6

Hence there are only six 10 m distances to run between two cones which gives a maximum distance available to run as 60 m.

A) (2,-6)
B) (-14, 14)
9 (-16, 12)
D) (2,9)

Answers

A midpoint has coordinates of [tex](-2, -1)[/tex] we will call them [tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex].

The coordinates of a midpoint are constructed from coordinates of enpoints [tex](x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)[/tex], namely as a divided sum.

[tex]

x_m=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}\implies x_1=2x_m-x_2 \\

y_m=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\implies y_1=2y_m-y_2

[/tex]

Now insert the numbers.

[tex]

x_1=2(-2)-(-6)=2 \\

y_1=2(-1)-4=-6

The result is an endpoint at [tex](2,-6)[/tex].

if f(x)=x+7and g(x)=1/x-13, what is the domain of (f•g)(x)

Answers

Answer: 7x-90/x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= x+7

g(x)=1/x-13

(f•g)(x)=1/x+13+7

1+7(x-13)/x-13

1+7x-91/x-13

7x-90/x-13

Answer:

(-∞, 0)∪(0, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the functions f(x) and g(x).  Now, you have to find (f*g)(x).  To do this, you have to multiply the two functions.

f(x) = x + 7

g(x) = 1/x - 13

(f*g)(x) = (x + 7)(1/x - 13)

(f*g)(x) = -13x + 7/x + 1 - 91

(f*g)(x) = -13x + 7/x - 90

The domain has to include all of the x-values that will produce a rational number.  So, look at where the x's are locate

-13x:  You could put any rational number into this value and still have a rational number.

7/x:  For this value, you cannot have 0 as an x-value.  Every other number is fine.

This means that the domain will be (-∞, 0)∪(0, ∞).  

You use parentheses and not brackets for the zero side because you don't want to include zero in the domain, but you do want to include all of the other numbers around zero.  There are no brackets on the infinity side because infinity isn't a number.  The ∪ symbol is used to combine domains.

the graph below describes the journey of a train between two cities

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Acceleration in first 15 min . Distance between two cities  Average speed of journey

Solution:

Each horizontal block is 1/8 hr = 7.5 min

Each vertical block is 10 km/hr

Time                    Velocity  km/hr

0 Min  ( 0 hr)            0

15 Min (1/4 hr)           50

45 Min (3/4 hr)         50

60 MIn  ( 1 hr)            100

90 Min  ( 3/2 hr)        100

120 Min ( 2hr)            0

Acceleration in first 15 min  (1/4 hr)  =  (50 - 0)/(1/4 - 0)  = 50/(1/4)

= 200  km/h²

Distance between two cities

= (1/2)(0 + 50)(1/4 - 0)  + 50 * (3/4 - 1/4)  + (1/2)(50 + 100)(1 - 3/4)  + 100 * (3/2 - 1) + (1/2)(100 + 0)(2 - 3/2)

=  25/4  + 25 + 75/4   + 50 + 25

= 125

Distance between two cities = 125 km

Average Speed of journey = 125/2  = 62.5  km/hr

Acceleration in first 15 min = 200  km/h²

Distance between two cities = 125 km

Average Speed of journey =  62.5  km/hr

Hope this helps..

Answer:

200km/h^2, 125km, 62.5km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a) just use the acceleration formula (change in velocity/time). For part b), remember that distance traveled is the area under the graph. This is because displacement is the integral of velocity, meaning that you integrate to find the area (i.e. displacement). Lastly, for part c), just apply speed = distance/time because in this case, acceleration is constant.

The height of a baseball, in feet, is represented by this expression, where t is time in seconds. The height of the baseball after 3.5 seconds is feet.

Answers

Answer:

The height of a baseball, in feet, is represented by this expression, where t is time in seconds.

-16t2+64t+3

The height of the baseball after 3.5 seconds is ___ feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression.

The height of a baseball, in feet, is represented by this expression, where t is time in seconds.

[tex]h=-16t^2+64t+3[/tex]

To find the height of the baseball  after 3.5 seconds, substitute the value of t = 3.5 in above expression

[tex]h=-16(3.5)^2+64(3.5)+3h\\\\=-16(12.25)+224+3h\\\\=-196+227h=31[/tex]

Hence, the height of the baseball after 3.5 seconds is 31 feet.

Answer:

31feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

The height of a baseball, in feet, is represented by this expression -16t²+64t+3, where t is time in seconds. The height of the baseball after 3.5 seconds is___ feet.

Given the height of the baseball modeled by the equation

h(t)  = -16t²+64t+3

To get the height of the baseball after 3,5secs, we will substitute t = 3.5s into the equation of the height as shown;

[tex]h(3.5) = -16(3.5)^{2} +64(3.5)+3\\h(3.5) = -16(12.25)+224+3\\ h(3.5) = -196+224+3\\ h(3.5) = -193+224\\ h(3.5) = 31feet[/tex]

The height of the baseball after 3.5 seconds is 31feet.

In the given question, the only figure that would be parallel to line c is line d. Line a is not parallel to line c (since it is slightly diagonal, it would intersect line c at a point) and line B is perpendicular to line c (since it is horizontal to plane Q), same as plane Q.

Which equation can be used to find x, the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle? A triangle has side lengths 18, 24, x. 18 + 24 = x 18 squared + 24 = x (18 + 24) squared = x squared 18 squared + 24 squared = x squared

Answers

Answer:

A triangle has side lengths 18, 24, x.

18 + 24 = x

18 squared + 24 = x

(18 + 24) squared = x squared

18 squared + 24 squared = x squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle hypotenuse has its length 18² + 24² = x².

What is hypotenuse?

In a right triangle, the "side opposite to the right angle is hypotenuse".

According to the question,

In right angle triangle,  sides are 18, 24, x. Where 'x' is the hypotenuse  of the right angle triangle. In right angle the opposite angle is 90⁰ . In order

to find hypotenuse,  

18 + 24 = x

18² +24 =x

(18+  24) ² = x²

18² + 24² = x²

Hence, the right triangle hypotenuse has its length 18² + 24² = x².

B is two fifths of c 4a = 3c work out the ratio a:b:c give your answer in its simplest form where a, b and c are integers

Answers

Answer:

a : b : c = 12 : 10 : 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: b = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] of c

 i.e             b = [tex]\frac{2c}{5}[/tex] ............... 1

          2c = 5b

So that;

          c = [tex]\frac{5b}{2}[/tex] .................... 2

Also,    

          4a = 3c

           a = [tex]\frac{3c}{4}[/tex] ................ 3

⇒          a = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] × ([tex]\frac{5b}{2}[/tex])

             a = [tex]\frac{15b}{8}[/tex] ................. 4

           15b = 8a

           b = [tex]\frac{8a}{15}[/tex] ................. 5

Comparing the derived equations:

From equations 2 and 3,

a:c = [tex]\frac{15b}{8}[/tex]: [tex]\frac{5b}{2}[/tex] = 4:5

From equations 1 and 2,

b:c = [tex]\frac{2c}{5}[/tex] : [tex]\frac{5b}{2}[/tex] = 2:3

But a common value of b = 15, gives;

a : c = 12 : 15 and b : c = 10 : 15  

Thus, a : b : c = 12 : 10 : 15

The ratio a:b:c in its simplest form is 15:8:20

Ratios and Proportions

Given the following parameters

b = 2/5 c4a = 3ca = 3/4c

To get the ratio of a:b:c, we will substitute the value of a and b into the ratio to have:

a:b:c = 3/4c : 2/5c :c

Multiply through by 20 to have:

a:b:c = 3/4c * 20 : 2/5c * 20: 20c

a:b:c = 15c:8c:20c

a:b:c = 15:8:20

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 4 primes are 2,3,5 and 7.

If we multiply them we get 2*3*5*7 = 210.

So 210 + 1 = 211 is one integer which gives 1 as a remainder.

The next one would be  2*210 + 1 = 421.

The difference is 210.

In option A, (-5,3) is a point of the function, but (5,-3) is not a point of the function.

So, function in option A is not an odd function.

In option B, (-4,2) is a point of the function, but (4,-2) is not a point of the function.

So, function in option B is not an odd function.
