The weight of a body above sea level varies inversely with the square of the distance from the center of Earth. If a woman weighs 123 pounds when she is at sea​ level, 3960 miles from the center of​ Earth, how much will she weigh when she is at the top of a​ mountain, 3.2 miles above sea​ level?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Her weight is approximately 122.8lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Inverse proportion;

Weight = 123lb when distance = 3960 miles from center of earth

Required

Calculate the weight when distance is 3.2 miles above sea level

Let weight be represented by W and distance by D

From the question, we understand that;

Weight is inversely proportional to square of distance;

Mathematically; this is

[tex]W \alpha \ \frac{1}{D^2}[/tex]

Convert proportion to equation

[tex]W = \frac{k}{D^2}[/tex]

Where k is the constant of  proportionality

When W = 123; D = 3960.

This implies that

[tex]123 = \frac{k}{3960^2}[/tex]

Make k the subject of formula

[tex]k = 123 * 3960^2[/tex]

[tex]k = 1928836800[/tex]

Calculating her weight when she's at the top of mountain, 3.2 miles above sea level

First, her distance from center of earth has to be calculated

Distance = Previous distance + 3.2

Distance = 3960 + 3.2

Distance = 3963.2

Now, her weight can be calculated using [tex]W = \frac{k}{D^2}[/tex]

Substitute for k and D

[tex]W = \frac{1928836800}{3963.2^2}[/tex]

[tex]W = \frac{1928836800}{15706954.24}[/tex]

[tex]W = 122.801452817[/tex]

[tex]W = 122.8\ (Approximated)[/tex]

Answers

The expression that returns the probability that a data value in a normal distribution is between a z- score of -0.18 and a z-score of 1.99 is (d) normalcdf(-0.18, 1.99)

How to determine the expression?

To calculate the probability between two z-scores is to calculate the area between the z-scores.

This is done using the following syntax:

normalcdf(lower bound, upper bound)

From the question, the lower and the upper z-scores are -0.18 and 1.99

So, the formula would be normalcdf(-0.18, 1.99)

Hence, the expression is (d)

1/5X - 5. What's the equation of the line?
O A) y = 1/5x + 6
OB) y = -5x + 6
C) y = 1/5* - 6
OD) y=1/5X

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x - 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus parallel line has slope of [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 6) ⇒ c = 6

y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x + 6 ← equation of parallel line → A

the equation of the line that passes through the point (0,6) and is parallel to the line with the equation y = 1/5X - 5 is y = 1/5x +6.

What is a Linear equation?

A linear equation is an algebraic equation of the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, and only a constant and a first-order (linear) term are included. Sometimes, the aforementioned is referred to as a "linear equation of two variables," with y and x serving as the variables.

Given A line passes through the point (0,6) and is parallel to the line with the equation y = 1/5X - 5

Since the two lines are parallel to each other

thus, their slope would be equal

Slope intercept form of the Second line:

y = 1/5x + c

Given that line passes through (0, 6)

From above equation

6 = 1/5* 0 +c

Hence, c = 6

therefore, the equation of the line y = 1/5x +6.

Given: BC ⊥ CA , Prove: m∠A+m∠B=90°

Answers

Answer:

With points A, B and C a right triangle is formed.

Given that BC ⊥ CA, then m∠C = 90°.

The addition of the angles of a triangle is equal to 180°, therefore:

m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

Substituting with m∠C = 90°:

m∠A + m∠B + 90° = 180°

m∠A + m∠B = 180° - 90°

m∠A + m∠B = 90°

The end points of AB are A(2,3) and B(8,1). The perpendicular bisector of AB is CD and point C lies on AB. The length of CD is √10 units. The coordinates of point C are?

Answers

The answer is A took that test

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The coordinates of C are (5 , 2)

The slope of CD is 3

The coordinates of D are (6 , 5) and (4 , -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Now lets study the problem

- The ends points of line AB are A = 2 , 3) and B = (8 , 1)

- CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB, and C lies on AB

- That means:

# C is the mid-point of AB

# The slope of AB × the slope of CD = -1 (one of them is a multiplicative

 inverse and additive inverse of the other)

-Ex: the slope of one is a/b, then the slope of the other is -b/a

* The mid-point between two points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

 [(x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2]

∵ C is the mid-point of AB

∴ C = [(2 + 8)/2 , (3 + 1)/2] = [10/2 , 4/2] = (5 , 2)

* The coordinates of C are (5 , 2)

- The slope of a line passing through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

the slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

∴ The slope of AB = (1 - 3)/(8 -2) = -2/6 = -1/3

∵ CD ⊥ AB

∴ The slope of CD × the slope of AB = -1

∴ The slope of CD = 3

* The slope of CD is 3

- The length of a line passing through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

the length = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

∵ The length of CD = √10

∵ Point D is (x , y)

∴ (x - 5)² + (y - 2)² = (√10)²

∴ (x - 5)² + (y - 2)² = 10 ⇒ (1)

∵ The slope of CD is (y - 2)/(x - 5) = 3 ⇒ by using cross multiply

∴ (y - 2) = 3(x - 5) ⇒ (2)

- Substitute (2) in (1)

∴ (x - 5)² + [3(x - 5)]² = 10 ⇒ simplify

* [3(x - 5)]² = (3)²(x - 5)² = 9(x - 5)²

∴ (x - 5)² + 9(x - 5)² = 10 ⇒ add the like terms

∴ 10(x - 5)² = 10 ⇒ ÷ 10 both sides

∴ (x - 5)² = 1 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ x - 5 = ± 1

∴ x - 5 = 1 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ x = 6

* OR

∴ x - 5 = -1 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ x = 4

- Substitute the values of x in (2)

∴ y - 2 = 3(6 - 5)

∴ y - 2 = 3 ⇒ add 2

∴ y = 5

* OR

∴ y - 2 = 3(4 - 5)

∴ y - 2 = -3 ⇒ add 2

∴ y = -1

* The coordinates of D are (6 , 5) and (4 , -1)
