Shellac O'Lean, a freshman on your school's football team, is 6 ft tall and weighs 140 lb. Since he would rather play basketball, he plans to grow to 7 ft 1 in., the same height as Shaquille O'Neal, his idol. If Shellac scales geometrically as he grows, how much can he expect to weigh? (O'Neal weighs 325 lb. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

At 7 ft. 1 in., Shellac can expect to weigh approximately 165 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the heights and the weights of the freshman are presented as follows;

The weight of the freshman at 6 ft. = 140 lb

The height to which he plans to grow = 7 ft. 1 in.

Given that Shellac scales geometrically as he grows, then the height to weight ratio is constant

Let 'y' represent Shellac's weight when his height is 75 ft. 1 in., we have;

[tex]\dfrac{6 \, ft.}{140 \ lb} = \dfrac{7 \, ft. \ 1 \, in. }{y}[/tex]

6 ft. = 72 in.

7 ft. 1 in. = 85 in.

Therefore, we get;

[tex]\dfrac{72 \ in.}{140 \ lb} = \dfrac{85 \ in. }{y}[/tex]

[tex]y ={85 \ in. }\times \dfrac{140 \, lb}{72 \ in.} = 165.2 \overline 7 \, lbs[/tex]

Shellac's expected weight given to the nearest whole number when his height is 7 ft. 1 in. ≈ 165 lb.

Hi, can someone help with these two questions ASAP! (Ignore the multiple choice I circled, not sure if it’s correct)
Thanks!!

Answers

Answer:

1) D. [tex]y = -\frac{3}{2}\cdot x^{12} -7\cdot x^{5}+\frac{2}{3}\cdot x -10[/tex]

2) E. The coefficient of [tex]x[/tex] is -16.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A polynomial is an algebraic expression of the form [tex]p(x) = \Sigma \limits_{i = 0}^{n} c_{i}\cdot x^{i}[/tex], where [tex]n[/tex] is the grade of the polynomial. In this case, the only equation that satisfies this definition is:

[tex]y = -\frac{3}{2}\cdot x^{12} -7\cdot x^{5}+\frac{2}{3}\cdot x -10[/tex]

Correct answer: D

2) Let [tex]p(x) = (2\cdot x + 1) \cdot (5\cdot x^{3}-8\cdot x +4)[/tex], we proceed to expand the expression by algebraic means:

[tex]p(x) = (2\cdot x + 1)\cdot (5\cdot x^{3}) -(2\cdot x +1)\cdot (8\cdot x) + 4\cdot (2\cdot x + 1)[/tex]

[tex]p(x) = 10\cdot x^{4}+5\cdot x^{3}-16\cdot x^{2}+4[/tex]

We see that coefficients for [tex]x^{2}[/tex] and [tex]x[/tex] are -16 and 0, respectively. Hence, the incorrect answer is E.

Answers

Answer:

9 ≤ x ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x – 3 ≤ 11 or –8x – 10 ≤ – 82

We shall determine the value of x in both case.

2x – 3 ≤ 11

Collect like terms

2x ≤ 11 + 3

2x ≤ 14

Divide both side by 2

x ≤ 14/2

x ≤ 7

–8x – 10 ≤ – 82

Collect like terms

–8x ≤ – 82 + 10

–8x ≤ – 72

Divide both side by –8

x ≤ – 72 / –8

x ≥ 9 (since we divided by a negative sign)

9 ≤ x

Combining both answers

x ≤ 7

9 ≤ x

Thus,

9 ≤ x ≤ 7

b. -0.9649, -0.9659
C. 0.5884, 0.5878
d. -0.9609, -0.9659

Answers

Quick answer, without using series: sin(4π/5) must be positive since 0 < 4π/5 < π. So C is the only possible choice.

Longer, proper answer:

The first five terms in the series expansion of sin(x) are

sin(x) ≈ x - x ³/3! + x ⁵/5! - x ⁷/7! + x ⁹/9!

Now let x = 4π/5:

sin(4π/5) ≈ 0.5884

so again the answer must be C.

Trigonometric series :  A mathematical series whose terms proceed by sine and cosines of integral multiples of a variable angle.

Option c is correct.

First five term of Trigonometric series of sin is shown below,

   [tex]sin x=x-\frac{x^{3}}{3!}+\frac{x^{5}}{5!}-\frac{x^{7}}{7!}+\frac{x^{9}}{9!}-......[/tex]

substitute x = [tex]\frac{4\pi }{5}[/tex]

  [tex]sin \frac{4\pi }{5}=\frac{4\pi }{5}-\frac{(\frac{4\pi }{5})^{3}}{3!}+\frac{(\frac{4\pi }{5})^{5}}{5!}-\frac{(\frac{4\pi }{5})^{7}}{7!}+\frac{(\frac{4\pi }{5})^{9}}{9!}-......[/tex]

After solving,

We get, approximation value of    [tex]sin\frac{4\pi }{5}=0.5884[/tex]

Now find , actual value

              [tex]sin\frac{4\pi }{5}=0.5878[/tex]

Ed solved a puzzle 3/4 faster than Brett. Brett solved the puzzle in 135 seconds. How long did it take Ed to solve the puzzle.

Answers

Answer:

101.25 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Ed solved the puzzle 3/4 faster than Brett.

Then if Brett solved the puzzle in a time T, Ed solved the puzzle in a time (3/4)*T.

We know that Brett solved the puzzle in 135 seconds, then:

T = 135s

This means that Ed solved the puzzle in:

time = (3/4)*T = (3/4)*135s = 101.25 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x6=15 and thats the closest it'll get. To be exact, it's 6.2, but i dont know if you need that.

15 1/2 is the same as 31/2
2 1/2 is the same as 5/2
31/2 divided by 5/2 (keep-change-flip to divide a fraction) —> 31/2 times 2/5
Numerator: 31 times 2 = 62
Denominator: 2 times 5 = 10
Put that together and it’s 62/10 which reduces to 31/5 or 6 1/5 cups

Answers

Answer:

(-1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

replace the occurrences of y in the equation

(x + y = 2) with x + 4

x + x + 4 = 2

2x + 4 = 2

solving for x in the first equation

2x = 2 - 4

2x = -2

2x/2 = -2/2

x = -1

replacing all occurrences of x in y = x + 4 with -1

y = (-1) + 4

y = 3

therefore the pairs are (-1, 3)

The length of line AB in the intersecting chords is determined as 16 units.

What is the length of AB?

The length of line AB is calculated by applying intersecting chord theorem as follows;

The radius of the circle = 10

Applying Pythagorean theorem as follows;

EB² + 6²= r²

where;

r is the radius of the circle = 10

EB² + 6²= 10²

EB² = 10² - 6²

EB² = 100 - 36

EB²= 64

EB = √ 64

EB = 8

Since EB is the half of length AB, then the value of the length AB is calculated as;

AB = 2 x 8
