The Graph Shows The Relationship Between The Number Of Months Different Students Practiced Boxing And

Answers

Answer 1

The y-intercept is 3.75, and the equation of the line of best fit is

y = 1.5x + 3.75, and after 13 months, 23 matches could be won.

What is the line of best fit?

A mathematical notion called the line of the best fit connects points spread throughout a graph. It's a type of linear regression that uses scatter data to figure out the best way to define the dots' relationship.

[tex]\rm m = \dfrac{n\sum xy-\sum x \sum y}{n\sum x^2 - (\sum x)^2} \\\\\rm c = \dfrac{\sum y -m \sum x}{n}[/tex]

Part A:

As we can see in the graph, the line crosses the y-axis at a certain point between 3 and 4.5.

So the y-intercept lies between 3 and 4.5

We can take the middle of these two values to get the approximate value of the y-intercept.

b = (3+4.5)/2 = 3.75

We know the line of the best fit is:

y = mx + b

y = mx + 3.75

b is the y-intercept and m is the slope of a line

Plug the point (9, 18) in the equation to get the value of m:

18 = 9m + 3.75

m = 1.5

y = 1.5x + 3.75

Plug x = 13 months in the above equation:

y = 1.5(13) + 3.75

y = 23.25 ≈ 23 number of matches that could be won

Thus, the y-intercept is 3.75, and the equation of the line of best fit is

y = 1.5x + 3.75, and after 13 months, 23 matches could be won.

A golf ball, thrown upwards, rises at a speed of v metres per second.
The ball reaches a maximum height of h metres.
h is proportional to the square of v.
When v = 10, h = 8
Work out the maximum height reached by the golf ball when v = 45

Answers

Answer:

162 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Since h is proportional to the square of v, we know that their ratio must be constant, so [tex]v_1^2/h_1 = v_2^2/h_2[/tex] where v1 and v2 are velocities and h1 and h2 are their respective heights.

Since we are given that v = 10 and h = 8, we can set v1 = 10 and h1 = 8 and since we are trying to find the height for v = 45, we can set v2 = 45. Inputting these values into the equation and solving, we get

10^2/8 = 45^2/h2

h2 = 45^2/(10^2/8) = 162 metres

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is a second order equation, it means that it has two possible answers and they are [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]x_2[/tex].

The famous quadratic formula for solving any second order equation is the following:

[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4 ac}}{2a}\\x_{2}=\frac{-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4 ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where a is the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex], b is the coefficient of x, and c is the free term. In other words,

[tex]a = 3\\b=4\\c=-2[/tex]

as the equation should be in the following form:

[tex]a x^2 + bx+c = 0[/tex]

Therefore the possible answer should be the following,

[tex]\frac{-4 + \sqrt{4^2 - 4*3*(-2)}}{2*3}=\frac{-4 +\sqrt{16 + 24}}{6} =\frac{-4 + \sqrt{40}}{6}=\\ \frac{-4 + \sqrt{4*10}}{6} = \frac{-4 + 2\sqrt{10}}{6}[/tex][tex]\frac{2*(-2 + \sqrt{10})}{2*3} = \frac{-2 + \sqrt{10}}{3}[/tex]

Based on the calculations, an expression which is equivalent to [u/v](x) is: C. -x³ + x² - 1.

Given the following data:

u(x) = x⁵ – x⁴ + x²v(x) = -x²

What is an expression?

An expression is a mathematical equation which is used to show the relationship that exist between two or more numerical quantities or variables.

In this exercise, we would evaluate the given expressions by factorizing the function u(x) as follows:

u(x) = x⁵ – x⁴ + x²

u(x) = x²(x³ – x² + 1)

Rewriting the expressions as a fraction, we have:

[tex]\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} = \frac{x^2(x^3 - x^2 + 1)}{-x^2}\\\\\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} = -(x^3 - x^2 + 1)\\\\\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} = -x^3 + x^2 - 1[/tex]

Therefore, u(x)/v(x) = -x³ + x² - 1.

It takes 13 hours and 15 minutes to paint longer walls of the house

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rectangular house. Painting of the longer walls takes 8 hours longer than painting shorter walls.Total time to paint is 18.5 hours.

Let the length of shorter sides be x and longer sides be y.

Then we have the system:

y = x + 8x + y = 18.5

Solve it by substitution:

x + x + 8 = 18.52x + 8 = 18.52x = 10.5x = 10.5/2x = 5.25

Find the value of y:

y = 5.25 + 8 = 13.25 hours or 13 hours and 15 minutes

Shorter one be x

longer one=x+8

Total time=18.5h

So

x+x+8=18.52x+8=18.52x=18.5-82x=10.5x=10.5/2x=5.25hours

Time required for longer side

Given that XW bisects AXZ, what theorem or theorems could be used to justify that W is equidistant from the two outside rays?

Answers

Answer:

  HA congruence postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to show W is equidistant from A and Z, we must demonstrate that WA ≅ WZ. The HA congruence postulate can be used for that purpose.

__

proof

WX bisects AXZ, so ∠WXA≅∠WXZ by the definition of an angle bisector. By the reflexive property of congruence, WX≅WX. The angles at A and Z are given as right angles.

So, we have triangles WAX and WZX that are right triangles with congruent hypotenuse and corresponding angle. These are the preconditions for the application of the HA congruence postulate. That postulate says the triangles WAX and WZX are congruent, so ...

WA ≅ WZ by CPCTC. Hence W is equidistant from the outside rays.

__

Additional comment

The definition of distance from a point to a line is the perpendicular distance from the point to the line. In this geometry, the perpendicular distances from W to the outside rays are the lengths of segments WA and WZ. That is why we need to show those lengths are the same.

V = 1872π

Volume of Cylinder B is;

V = π × 8² × 16

V = 1024π

After pumping, volume in container A will be;

V_new = 1872π - 1024π

V_new = 848π

Percentage is;

848π/1872π * 100% = 45.3%

Answers

Answer:

given 2 angles are 200° and 110° , then remaining 2 angles sum to

360° - 200° - 110° = 360° - 310° = 50°

sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 3 = 5 parts , then

1 part = 50° ÷ 5 = 10° , so

2 parts = 2 × 10° = 20°

3 parts = 3 × 10° = 30°
