Sarah spends a winter day recording the temperature once every three hours for science class. At 9 am, the temperature was -9.2°F. Between 9am and noon, the temperature rose 2°F. Between noon and 3pm, the temperature went up 12.1°F. Between 3pm and 6pm, the temperature dropped 5.5°F. What was the temperature at 6pm?

Answers

Answer 1

Using a system of equations, it is found that the temperature at 6pm was of -0.6 ºF.

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

At 9 am, the temperature was -9.2°F. Between 9am and noon, the temperature rose 2°F, hence the temperature at noon was of -9.2 + 2 = -7.2ºF.

Between noon and 3pm, the temperature went up 12.1°F, hence at 3 pm, the temperature was of -7.2 + 12.1 = 4.9 ºF.

Between 3pm and 6pm, the temperature dropped 5.5°F, hence the temperature at 6 pm was of 4.9 - 5.5 = -0.6 ºF.

a. Convert 5x^2 + 55x + 140 from standard to vertex form
b. Describe the transformation.

Answers

Answer:

The transformation will be 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x^2 + 55x + 140  ---> required

Coefficients a=5, b=55, c=140 yield

[tex]h=\frac{-h}{2*a} =\frac{-(55)}{2*5} =\frac{-55}{10} =-5.5[/tex]

Thus, the x-coordinate of the vertex is [tex]\boxed{h = -5.5 }[/tex]

Plugging x=-5.5 into the given equation yields:

[tex]k=5*(-5.5)^{2} +55*-5.5+140=-11.25[/tex]

Thus, the y-coordinate of the vertex is [tex]\boxed{k = -11.25 }[/tex]

Altogether, the vertex of the given parabola is

[tex]\boxed{ (h,k)=(-5.5,-11.25) }[/tex]

Plugging (h,k)=(−5.5,−11.25) into the vertex formula

[tex]\boxed{ y=(x-h)^2+k }[/tex]

yields the vertex form of the parabola

[tex]\boxed{ y=(x+5.5)^2-11.25 }[/tex]

To find the vertex of a parabola in standard form, first, convert it to the vertex form y=a(x−h)2+k y = a ( x − h ) 2 + k .

A report says that the average amount of time a 10-year-old American child spends playing outdoors per day is between 20.18 and 24.96 minutes. What is the margin of error in this report

Answers

Answer:

The study, The Nature of Americans National Report, found that more than half of adults reported spending five hours or less in nature each week, and being satisfied with this small amount of time spent outdoors.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error in the report is 2.39.

What is the margin of error?

The margin of error is a statistic that describes how much random sampling error there is in survey data.

Given that, the upper interval is 24.96 and the lower interval is 20.18.

The margin of error is half of the difference between the upper and the lower interval.

Therefore, the margin of error is:

Margin of error = (24.96 - 20.18)/2

                        = 4.78/2

                        = 2.39

Hence, the margin of error in the report is 2.39.

• A. 0.74

B. 0.12
• C. 0.26
• D. 0.48

Answers

Answer:

the answer is C. 0.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 0.50 + 0.24 is 0.74 and I'm guessing it goes to 1.0

So you subtract 1.0 from 0.74 to get 0.26

Donnie lives 3 miles from the park . He rode his bicycle from his house to the park at a constant speed of 9 miles per hour. How long did it take Donnie to get to the park?

Answers

Answer:

20 minutes, or 1/3 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Donnie travels at 9 miles/hr.  

The relationship between speed, distance, and time is Time = Distance/Speed.  [from Distance = Speed*Time]

Time to bike 3 miles at 9 miles/hr is = (3 miles)/(9 miles/hr) = (1/3) hr

It took 1/3 hour, or 20 minutes, to bike the three miles, with no stops for soda and hot dog.

PLEASE HELP W PRECALC QUESTION

Answers

Answer: [tex]2tan(theta)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I know this is pre-calculus, but I want to let you know what this is actually used for in real calculus. This is a method of integration called "u-substitution" which tranforms the function of 'x' into a function of 'theta'. If we allow the value of 'x' to equal 2sec(theta), we can plug this into the function to get:

[tex]\sqrt{x^2-4} =\sqrt{(2sec(theta)^2-4} =\sqrt{4sec^2(theta)-4}[/tex]

Factor out a 4 to get:

[tex]\sqrt{4(sec^2(theta)-1)}[/tex]

Take the square root of 4 to get a 2 on the outside of the radical:

[tex]\sqrt{4(sec^2(theta)-1)}=2\sqrt{sec^2(theta)-1}[/tex]

Use the trig identity below to convert the secant to tangent:

[tex]tan^2(theta)+1=sec^2(theta)[/tex]

[tex]tan^2(theta)=sec^2(theta)-1[/tex]

Therefore our expression becomes:

[tex]2\sqrt{sec^2(theta)-1}=2\sqrt{tan^2(theta)}[/tex]

The square root of tangent is simply tangent:

[tex]2\sqrt{tan^2(theta)} =2tan(theta)[/tex]

We have the coordinate (4, -5)

x-coordinate is positivey-coordinate is negativeIt lies in Quadrant IV

Answer:

Quadrant IV

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cartesian plane is divided into 4 quadrants.

Quadrant I is the top right quadrant, where x and y are positive.

We then move in a counterclockwise direction for quadrants II, III and IV.

Therefore:

Quadrant I:  (x, y)Quadrant II: (-x, y)Quadrant III:  (-x, -y)Quadrant IV:  (x, -y)

As point (4, -5) has a positive x-value and a negative y-value, it will lie in Quadrant IV

which type of function describes her total savings after m months and why?

Answers

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

I would advise finding the difference between 300 and 200 and 450 and 300:

[tex]300-200=100\\450-300=150[/tex]

We can eliminate C and D since she saves 100 the first month and 150 the second month.

The next step would be to find the increase every month:

[tex]\frac{Final value}{initial value}=x\\\\\frac{300}{200}=1.5 \\\\\frac{450}{300} = 1.5[/tex]

If we would write the increase as a function, we would get:

[tex]y= 1.5x[/tex]

we can check this by substituting values:

[tex]y=1.5*200\\y=300\\\\\\y=1.5*300\\y=450[/tex]

An exponential function looks like this:

[tex]y= a^x[/tex]

A linear function looks like this:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Our m is 1.5, a linear increase by 150% and our b is 0, which can be written like:

[tex]y=1.5x+0\\y=1.5x[/tex]

Therefore our function resembles a linear function more than an exponential function, eliminating answer B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let O be the centre of the circle of radii 10 cm and 8 cm.

In given figure,

AP = PB and OP⊥AB

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ∆OPA, we get

↠ OA² = OP² + AP²

↠ (10)² = (8)² + AP²

↠ 100 = 64 + AP²

↠ 100 - 64 = AP²

↠ 36 = AP²

↠ √36 = AP

6 = AP

Now,

↠ AB = 2AP

↠ AB = 2(6)

↠ AB = 12 cm

Hence,

The length of the chord of the larger circle 12 cm
