In a trivia contest, players form teams and work together to earn as many points as possible for their team. Each team can have between 3 and 5 players. Each player can score up to 10 points in each round of the game. Elena and four of her friends decided to form a team and play a round.


Write an expression, an equation, or an inequality for each quantity described here. If you use a variable, specify what it represents.


1. the number of points that Elena's team earns in one round


2. the number of points Elena's team earns if each player misses one point


3. the number of players in a game if there are at least 3 teams

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) From 0 to 50.

(ii) From 3 to 5.

(iii) From 3R to 5R, where R=3,4,5,...

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N be the number of players in a team.

As each team can have numbers of player ranging from 3 to 5, so

[tex]3\leqN\leq5\cdots(i)[/tex]

Let P be the points scored by one player in one round of the game.

As each player can score up to 10 points in each round of the game, so

[tex]0\leq P \leq 10\cdots(ii)[/tex]

(1) There are 5 members in the team formed by Elena.

So, points earned by 5 players in 1 round = 5P

From equation (ii), the range is

[tex]0\leq 5P \leq 50[/tex]

Hence, the points earned by Elena's team is ranging from 0 to 50.

(2) If each played misses 1 point, then,

Points earned by 1 player in 1 round = 10-1=9

Hence, points earned by 5 players in 1 round = 9x5=45.

(3) Let R (an integer) denoted the number of teams.

As there are at least 3 teams in the game, so

[tex]R\geq3\cdots(iii)[/tex]

As the number of players in one team is N, so

the number of players in R team is NR, where R=3,4,5,...

Now, from equation (i)

[tex]3R\leqNR\leq5R[/tex]

Hence, if there are at least 3 teams, then the number of players is ranging from 3R to 5R.

For R=3, the number of players in the game is ranging from 3x3=9 to 5x3=15.

The function h(x)= -x2 +6x Models the path of water in a fountain in meters. The function represents the vertical distance, H, as a function of the horizontal distance, X. What is the value of H2?

Answers

Answer:

h(2) = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the function h(x)= -x² + 6x Models the path of water in a fountain in meters

Since the function is h(x)= -x² + 6x.

It means h(2) will be;

h(2) = -(2²) + 6(2)

h(2) = -4 + 12

h(2) = 8

Katherine invests $7770 in a six-month money market account giving 5.8% simple annual interest and $12,500 in a
three-year CD giving 7 25% simple annual interest. Assuming that Katherine does not reinvest or renew these
investments, how much money will she have when both investments reach maturity, to the nearest dollar?
$2,944
b. $15,219
$23,214
d. $30,886
a
С.

Answers

Answer:

Katherine will receive $23214 to the nearest dollar from both investments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = Principal × Time × rate

Le's work out the interest Katherine earns from the two investments.

Money Market Account

Simple interest = 7770 × 5.8/100 × 6/12

= 7770 × 0.058 × 0.5 =  $225.33

So, the amount she gets at maturity is:

$7770 + $225.33= $7995.33

CD account

Simple interest = 12500 × 0.0725 × 3 = $2718.75

The amount she receives at the end of period is:

$12500 + $2718.75 = $15218.75

The total amount she receives from both investments at maturity is:

$15218.75 + $7995.33 = $23214.08

This to the nearest dollar is:

= $23214

Amaya is standing 30 ft from a volleyball net. The net is 8 ft high. Amaya serves the ball. The path of the ball is modeled by the equation y=-0.02(x-18)^2+12​, where x is the​ ball's horizontal distance in feet from​ Amaya's position and y is the distance in feet from the ground to the ball. a. How far away is the ball from Amaya when it is at its maximum​ height? Explain. b. Describe how you would find the​ ball's height when it crosses the net at x=30. a. How far away is the ball from Amaya when it is at its maximum​ height? Explain. The ball is nothing ft away from Amaya when it is at its maximum height. Use the ▼ y-coordinate x-coordinate of the vertex.

Answers

Answer:

a) 30feet

b) 9.12feet

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Given the path of the ball is modeled by the equation y=-0.02(x-18)²+12​, where;

x is the​ ball's horizontal distance in feet from​ Amaya's position

y is the distance in feet from the ground to the ball.

The ball will be at the maximum height when dy/dx = 0

Differentiate the function:

dy/dx = 2(-0.02)(x-18)^(2-1)+0

dy/dx = -0.04(x-18)

Equate the resulting expression to zero and find x as shown;

-0.04(x-18) = 0

Open the parentheses

-0.04x+0.04(18) = 0

-0.04x+0.72 =0

-0.04x = -0.72

x = -0.72/-0.04

x = 18ft

Hence the ball is 18ft away from Amaya when it is at its maximum height

b) To get the balls height y when x = 30, we will substitute x = 30 into the equation given and calculate the value of y as shown:

y=-0.02(x-18)²+12

y = -0.02(30-18)²+12

y= -0.02(12)²+12

y = -0.02(144)+12

y = -2.88+12

y = 9.12 feet

Hence the Ball's height is 9.12feet when it crosses the net at x = 30.

The harbormaster wants to place buoys where the river bottom is 20 feet below the surface of the water. Complete the absolute value equation to find the horizontal distance from the left shore at which the buoys should be placed. blank = 1/5|s blank|blank​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom of a river makes a V-shape that can be modeled with the absolute value function, d(h) = ⅕ ⎜h − 240⎟ − 48, where d is the depth of the river bottom (in feet) and h is the horizontal distance to the left-hand shore (in feet). A ship risks running aground if the bottom of its keel (its lowest point under the water) reaches down to the river bottom. Suppose you are the harbormaster and you want to place buoys where the river bottom is 20 feet below the surface. Complete the absolute value equation to find the horizontal distance from the left shore at which the buoys should be placed

Answer:

To solve the problem, the depth of the water would be equated to the position of the river bottom.

[tex]d(h)=river \ bottom\\\\The \ river \ bottom=-20\ feet(below)\\\\d(h) = -20\\\\\frac{1}{5}|h-240|-48=-20\\ \\\frac{1}{5}|h-240|=-20+48\\\\\frac{1}{5}|h-240|=28\\\\|h-240|=28*5\\\\|h-240|=140\\\\h-240=140\ or\ h-240=-140\\\\h=140+240\ or\ h=-140+240\\\\h=380\ or\ h=100\\\\The\ buoys\ should\ be\ placed\ at\ 100\ feet\ and\ 380\ feet\ from\ left-hand\ shore[/tex]

An ant with a mass of 4 x 10-6 kg is carrying a bread crumb back to its anthill . The bread crumb has a mass of 8 x 10-5 kg. The mass of the bread crumb is how many times the mass of the ant?​

Answers

Answer:

Mass of bread crumb is 20 times the mass of the ant..

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of an ant = [tex]4\times 10^{-6}[/tex] kg

Ant carries a weight of bread crumb to its anthill.

Mass of the bread crumb = [tex]8\times 10^{-5}[/tex] kg

Ratio of their masses,

[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the ant}}{\text{Mass of bread crumb}}=\frac{4\times 10^{-6}}{8\times 10^{-5}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the ant}}{\text{Mass of bread crumb}}=\frac{1}{2\times 10^{(-5+6)}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the ant}}{\text{Mass of bread crumb}}=\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Mass of the bread crumb = 20×(Mass of the ant)

Toby is packaging 21 baseball cards and 12 football cards to sell at a swap meet. He had determined that it would be best to package them in packets of 3 cards each with 7 packs of baseball cards and 4 packs of football cards. However, Toby then decided to keep one baseball card for himself and sell the rest. How does this change how many packets of each card type there are and how many cards are in each packet? There would be [?] packets of baseball cards and [?] packets of football cards. Each packet would contain [?] cards.

Answers

Answer:

Before, he had 21 baseball cards and 12 football cards.

we know that:

21 = 7*3

12 = 4*3.

He decided to pack the cards in groups of 3, because 3 is the only common factor between 21 and 12.

Now, if he decides to keep one baseball card, now he has:

20 baseball cards and 12 football cards.

Now he has two possibilities for how many cards are in each pack, this is because:

12 = 4*3 = 2*2*3

20 = 4*5 = 2*2*5

12 and 20 have two common factors, 4 and 2.

a) Then he can sell them in packets of 2 cards each with:

12/2 = 6 packs of football.

20/2 = 10 packs of baseball.

b) Or he can sell them in packets of 4 cards each with:

12/4 = 3 packs of football.

20/4 = 5 packs of baseball.
