Can someone help? Two players take turns placing multiple chess kings on the cells of a 9×9 chess board, one king per move, so that the kings do not beat each other. (The color of a king piece does not matter.) The player who cannot make a move loses. Which player is the winner?

Answers

Answer:

  the first player wins

Step-by-step explanation:

The first player can always win if they adopt this strategy:

  1. make the first move in the center of the board

  2. make every subsequent move in the position that is the image of the 2nd player's move, reflected across the center.

Hence if the 2nd player can make a move, so can the first.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is split into four right triangles

The base of one is 5 and the hypontenuse is 10

So remember x^2y^2=z^2

5^2=25

25+y^2=100

Ok so y is between 8 and 9 so lets just use 8 first

5*8*1/2=20

there are 4 triangles so 20*4=80

now same thing with 9

5*9*1/2=22.5

22.5*4=90

your answer is between 80 and 90

btw i might have gotten the answer wrong but idk if u were supposed to have an exact answer and also idk if the "10" was the hypontheses but since u were probably offline i answered it

Write an algebraic equation that gives James’s texting speed s for m months of practice. 3. solve the equation from question 2 to determine how many months of practice it will take before james texting speed reaches 8 characters per second. Lynda would also like to complete in the same speed texting completion as james she currently texts at the rate of 4 characters per second but will only have 10 months to practice before the completion. 4. if Lynda wants to text at least 8 characters per second like james then the equation 10r+4=8 could be used to model this situation. Solve for r. 5. Explain what the variable r represents in the equation given in question 4. 6. Consider the equation 8x+5=37 write a real life scenario that this equation could model.

Answers

Answer:

1. a. His new texting speed after one month is 2 + 1/2 = 2.5 characters per second.

b. After two months it will be 2 + (1/2) * 2 = 3 characters / second.

c. Answer is 2 + 1/2 * 3 = 3.5 characters/second/.

2. The answer is s = 1/2m + 2

3. To solve for m we write 8 = 1/2m + 2 → 6 = 1/2m → m = 12 months.

4. 10r + 4 = 8 → 10r = 4 → r = 0.4

5. The variable r represents the rate she must increase her texting speed by per month.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x+3

y = -3x+3

Since both equations are equal to y, set them equal to each other

2x+3 = -3x+3

Subtract 3 from each side

2x = -3x

Add 3x to each sdie

2x+3x = -3x+3x

5x =0

Divide by 5

x=0

Now solve for y

y =2x+3

y = 0+3

y=3

(0,3)

Answer:

(0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x+3

y = -3x+3

2x+3 = -3x+3

2x = -3x

2x+3x = -3x+3x

5x =0

x=0

The solve for y

y =2x+3

y = 0+3

y=3

Determine the surface area of a sphere with a diameter of 16 cm. Question 4 options: A) 804.2 cm2 B) 1,024 cm2 C) 201.0 cm2 D) 3,216.9 cm2

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option A.

804.2cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a sphere is 4πr²

where r is the radius

radius = diameter / 2

radius = 16/2 = 8cm

Surface area of the sphere is

4π (8)²

= 4(64)π

= 256π

= 804.2cm²

The population (in millions) of a certain country can be approximated by the
function P(x) = 50(1.03)^x, where x is the number of years since 2000. In
which year will the population reach 100 million? Hint: An answer such as
2002.4 would represent the year 2002.
A. 2002
B. 2023
C. 2066
D. 2132

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, set the equation equal to 100 and solve for x. Thus:

[tex]100=50(1.03)^x[/tex]

[tex]2=(1.03)^x[/tex]

[tex]x=\log_{1.03}2\approx23.45\approx23[/tex]

Therefore, 23 years after 2000, the population will reach 100 million.

Hence, our answer is B, at the year 2023.

it cannot be negative x as the parabola has a minimum value, the coordinates of turning point is (-1,2)

as it is -1 there has to be a negative sign in equation

so the right one is 2nd one

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph is clearly that of a parabola that opens up and has its vertex at (2, -1).  The coefficient of x^2 must be + because the parabola opens up.  

Using the point-slope formula y - k = a(x - h)^2, and letting 2 replace h and -1 replace k, we get:

y + 1 = a(x - 2)^2  or  y = a(x - 2)^2 - 1

10) Spike drives for 50 miles at 60mph. He slows down and travels
another 50 miles at 40mph. For the final part of the 120 mile journey,
he speeds up to 80mph. How long does he take altogether? What is
his average speed (to the nearest mph)?

Answers

Answer:

2 1/3 hours or 2 hours 20 minutes.

51.4 mph to 1 decimal place.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time = distance  speed

First 50 miles time taken = 50 / 60  = 5/6 hours

Second 50 miles  -  time  =  50/40 = 5/4 hours.

Final 20 miles - time taken =  20 / 80 = 1/4 hours.

Total time taken = 5/6 + 5/4 + 1/4

= 5/6 + 6/4

= 10/12 + 18/12

= 28/12

=  7/3 or 2 1/3 hours or 2 hours 20 minutes.

Average speed = total distance / total time

=  120 / 7/3

= 120 * 3/7

=  51.4 mph to 1 decimal place.

Which of the following is not a condition that must be met before you can use

Answers

Answer:

D. The coefficient of the x^2-term must be positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The coefficient of the x2-term can't be zero.

B. There can be no term whose degree is higher than 2.

C. One side of the equation must be zero.

D. The coefficient of the x2-term must be positive.

Quadratic equation is given as:

y=ax^2+bx+c

To use the quadratic formula,we have

ax^2+by+c=0

Coefficient of x^2 can not be equal to 0, that is a can not be equal to 0

There can be no term whose degree is higher than 2. The highest degree in a quadratic equation is 2

One side of the equation must be 0, that is ax^2+by+c=0

Coefficient of x^2 must be positive. The coefficient of x^2 can either be positive or negative. That is, it can either be a or -a

Permutation helps us to know the number of ways an object can be arranged in a particular manner. The number of ways in which 6 marbles can be put in three different jars is 720.

What is Permutation?

Permutation helps us to know the number of ways an object can be arranged in a particular manner. A permutation is denoted by 'P'.

[tex]^nP_r = \dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]

where,

n is the number of choices available,

r is the choices to be made.

Given that there are 6 marbles and 3 different jars. Therefore, The number of ways in which 6 marbles can be put in three different jars is,

Number of ways = ⁶P₃ × 3!

                            = 120 × 6

                            = 720

Hence, The number of ways in which 6 marbles can be put in three different jars is 720.
