3. A soccer player heads a ball from a height of 6 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 20 feet per second. The height h in feet of the ball is given by h= –16t + 20t +6,
where t is the time elapsed in seconds. How long will it take the ball to hit the
ground if no other players touch it? State the method you used to solve this
quadratic equation and why you chose that method.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A

1.5 seconds

Part B

By substitution and factorization because h = 0 at ground level

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The height from which the soccer player heads the ball, h = 6 feet

The initial velocity of the ball, v = 20 ft./s

The height of the ball in feet, h = -16·t² + 20·t + 6

From the given equation of the ball, we have;

At the initial height, t = 0, from the given equation, h = 6

At the  ground level,  the height, h = 0, therefore, we get;

0 = -16·t² + 20·t + 6

Factorizing using a graphing calculator gives;

0 = 2 × (-8·t² + 10·t + 3) = -2 × (8·t² - 10·t - 3) = -2 × (2·t -3)·(4·t + 1)

∴ (2·t -3)·(4·t + 1) = 0

t = 1.5 or t = -1/4 = -0.25

Therefore;

The time it takes the ball to hit the ground, t = 1.5 seconds.

Part B

The method used in solving the given quadratic equation is by plugging in the value of 'h' as h = 0 in the given equation and factorizing the result because at ground level, the height, h = 0.

Each card in a set of cards has one of the letters from the word MATHEMATICS. The cards are shuffled. Suppose you draw a card from the set of cards, record the letter, return the card to the set, and shuffle the cards. You repeat this experiment 22 times. Would you expect the experimental probability of drawing a vowel to be the same as the theoretical probability? YES or NO and Explain you answer

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability is the expected probability of anything. For example we expect a probability of 1/6 for each number when we roll a die .

Experimental Probability is the one that is obtained by the actual experimenting of rolling the die.

The theoretical probability is the example of perfect probability and experimental probability  is the example of actual occurrence.

Their formulas are

Theoretical Probability = number of possible outcomes/ total number of possible outcomes

Experimental Probability =  number of favorable outcomes/ total number of actual outcomes

If we a roll a fair die several times we may get 2 repeated number of times or any other number that is on the die.

So the experimental probability is bit different from the theoretical probability.

Now if the cards are shuffled and the experiment is repeated 22 times

experimental probability of drawing a vowel  would not  be the same as the theoretical probability because n is small.

If n→1000 or more

n→∞

According to K. Pearson or Buffon when n tends to infinity the  theoretical probability becomes equal to experimental probability.

They experimented this on a coin and put forward their results.

From the boxplot attached, we can deduce the following :

Median (vertical line in between the box on a boxplot).

Median, set A = 30

Median, set B = 29

Range = (Maximum - Minimum. Value)

Set A :

Maximum = 35 ; Minimum = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = -2, then 2y = -2 - 2x

3x - 2y = 12, then 2y = 3x - 12

so:

-2 - 2x = 3x - 12

add 2x and 12 to each side of the equation:

5x = 10

divide both sides by 5:

x = 2

2y = 3(2) - 12

2y = -6

divide both sides by 2:

Arnetta’s monthly gross pay is $4,200 federal withholding is 16.05%

Answers

Answer: $3204.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the complete question:

Arnetta's monthly gross pay is $4,200. Federal withholding is 16.05% of her pay. Her other deductions total $321.30. Find her net pay.

First, we calculate the Federal witholding which will be:

= 16.05% × $4200

= 0.1605 × $4200

= $674.10

The total deduction will now be:

= $674.10 + $321.30

= $995.40

The net pay will now be:

= Gross pay - Total deductions

= $4,200 - $995.40

= $3204.06

Therefore, Arnetta’s net pay is $3204.06

Answer:

d. 89°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given measure of the angles formed are;

m∠AED = 48°, m[tex]\widehat{AG}[/tex] = 175°

According to circle theorem, the angle formed by a chord and a tangent of a circle is given by half of the measure of the arc intercepted by the chord in the direction of the angle;

Therefore;

m∠AED = (1/2) × m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex]  = 48°

∴ m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex] = 2 × 48° = 96°

m∠AEF = (1/2) × m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex]

m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex] + m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] = 360° (angle round a circle)

∴ m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] = 360° - m[tex]\widehat{ABE}[/tex] = 360° - 96° = 264°

m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] = m[tex]\widehat{AG}[/tex] + m[tex]\widehat{EG}[/tex]

∴ m[tex]\widehat{EG}[/tex] = m[tex]\widehat{AGE}[/tex] - m[tex]\widehat{AG}[/tex] = 264° - 175° = 89°

m[tex]\widehat{EG}[/tex] = 89°.

[tex]Rate = 2ft/s[/tex] -- driver 2

[tex]height = 33ft[/tex]

Required

The time they passed each other

First, we determine the function of driver 2.

We have that:

[tex]Rate = 2ft/s[/tex] and [tex]height = 33ft[/tex]

So, the function is:

[tex]h_2(t) = Height - Rate * t[/tex]

[tex]h_2(t) = 33 - 2t[/tex]

The time they drive pass each other is calculated as:

[tex]h(t) = h_2(t)[/tex]

[tex]-16t^2 + 4t + 33= 33 - 2t[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]-16t^2 + 4t + 2t= 33 - 33[/tex]

[tex]-16t^2 + 6t= 0[/tex]

Divide through by 2t

[tex]-8t + 3= 0[/tex]
