please help meee

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5200

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1: The discriminant of a quadratic is the expression inside the radical of the quadratic formula.

[tex]b^2-4(ac)[/tex]

STEP 2: Substitute in the values of a, b, and c.

[tex](-10)^2-4(5)(-255)[/tex]

Every 125 pages that Raul reads during his summer reading challenge, he will collect 5 book points to use at his local library. Which graph models a relationship with the same unit rate?

Answers

Answer:

d. J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Raul gets 5 (y) book points for every 125 (x) pages he reads during summer challenge, we can say that his unit rate would be: y/x = 5/125 = 1/25.

Raul's unit rate is 1/25 book point to each page he reads.

Graph J also has a unit rate of 1/25 (y/x).

Therefore graph J models a relationship with the same unit rate.

Instead of handing out candy like a well-adjusted person on Halloween, grumpy, anti-social Professor Sosa decides to stand on top of a 400 ft building and toss candy treats onto the ground below. If he drops a bag of candy corn, how long will it take for it to land on the ground? What will the velocity of the bag be when it hits the ground?

Answers

Answer: The bag of candy corn will take 5 seconds to land on the floor and it will hit it with velocity of 49m/s.

Step-by-step explanation: A free falling object has only Gravitational Force acting on it, so acceleration will be due to gravity, which has magnitude

g = 9.8m/s².

As Professor Sosa drops the bag, its initial velocity and time are 0.

The building has a height of 400ft, so adjusting units: y = 121.92 m and [tex]y_{0}[/tex] = 0.

For this problem, going down will be the positive reference.

Then:

[tex]y=y_{0}+v_{0}t+\frac{g}{2}t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta y=v_{0}t+\frac{g}{2}t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]121.92=\frac{9.8}{2}t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{121.92*2}{9.8} }[/tex]

t ≈ 5

It will take 5s for the candy corn bag to land on the ground.

Acceleration is the change in velocity per change in time, so:

[tex]g=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}[/tex]

As initial velocity and time are 0 and rearraging it:

v = g.t

v = 9.8*5

v = 49

The bag will hit the ground with velocity of magnitude 49 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the hourly utilization rate of each resource if the bottleneck(s) work nonstop during a 10-hour day?

Answers

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Utilization rate =

Hours worked / total working hours per day

Since the bottle works nonstop during a 10-hour day, it worked 10 hours

Utilization rate in percentage = (10/10)×100%

= 100%

Find x for each of the problems;
1) 2x+5=12+x
2)5x=30+3x
3)2+x/3=7
4)15-x=17-2x
5)6x= -42-x
6)36-4x=26-3x
7) -2+x=15

Answers

Answer:

1) x = 7

2) x = 15

3) x = 19

4) x = 2

5) x = - 6

6) x = 10

7) x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x + 5= 12 +x

  -x                -x

2x -x + 5 = 12

          -5     -5

x = 7

2) 5x = 30 + 3x

   -3x          -3x

2x = 30

x = 15

3) 2 + x/3 = 7

3(2 + x/3) = (7) 3

2 + x = 21

-2         -2

x = 19

4) 15 - x = 17 - 2x

       +2x       +2x

15 - x + 2x = 17

-15               -15

x = 2

5) 6x = - 42 - x

   +x            +x

7x = -42

x = - 6

6) 36 - 4x = 26 - 3x

         +3x           +3x

36 - x = 26

-36        -36

-x = -10

x = 10

7) -2 + x = 15

   +2         +2

x = 17

Find the range, variance, standard deviation

Answers

Answer:

Range is 44

mean is 29.7

variance is 289.56

standard deviation is 17.016

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given as follows

3, 24, 30, 47, 43, 7, 47,13, 44, 39

Range = maximum - minimum

             = 47 -3 = 44

mean = [tex]\frac{3+24+30+47+43+7+47+13+44+39}{10}[/tex] = 297/10 = 29.7

variance = [tex]\frac{sum xi^2 }{N} - mean^2 }[/tex]

              = 289.56

SD = [tex]\sqrt{variance}[/tex]  = 17.016

The standard deviation of the given data is not a good measure as the range and standard deviation are far apart. The standard deviation gives how the given data is dispersed from the mean or expected value, while the range gives a rough idea of variability of the data.

Find the mean and the median of the data set. 31,32,36,31,30,35,33,30.

Answers

Answer:

Mean = 32.25

median = 31.5

Answer:

Median = 31.5

Mean  = 32.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of data = 8

Ascending order:

    30 , 30 , 31 , 31 , 32 ,  33 , 35, 36

Median = Average of 4th and 5th term

             = (31 + 32) / 2

              = 63/2

              = 31.5

Mean = Sum of all the observations /number of observations

         = (31 + 32 + 36 +31 + 30 + 35 + 33 +30) / 8

         = 258/8  

         = 32.25
