Jo's mother, Anne, is four times as old as Jo. In four years time, Anne will be three times as old as Jo. How old is Jo? (this is an easier version of a riddle we'll do in AP CS)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jo's age = x = 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Jo's age = x

Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x

In four years time, Anne will be three times as old as Jo.

Jo's age =3( x + 4)

Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x + 4

How old is Jo?

Equate Jo's age and his mother's age

3(x + 4) = 4x + 4

3x + 12 = 4x + 4

3x - 4x = 4 - 12

-x = - 8

Divide both sides by -1

x = 8

Therefore,

Jo's age = x = 8 years

When gold medalist Ren Qian prepared for her dive from the 10 meter platform during the

Olympics, she looked out at her family sitting on the front row (level with the pool) at a 20°

angle of depression. How far away was Ren from her family (ground distance)? Round to the

nearest tenth of a meter.

Write answer like this: ##.# m.

(5 Points)

Enter your answer

Answers

Answer:

Ren was 27.5 meters away from her family.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ren Qian was at a height of 10 meters to the ground. Let the distance from her vertical point on the ground to her family (i.e the ground distance) be represented by x.

But the angle of depression is measured with respect to the horizontal plane, so;

the vertical angle = [tex]90^{o}[/tex] - 20°

                             = [tex]70^{o}[/tex]

Applying the appropriate trigonometric function, we have;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Tan [tex]70^{o}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{10}[/tex]

⇒ x = 10 x Tan [tex]70^{o}[/tex]

      = 10 x 2.7475

      = 27.475

x = 27.5 meters

Ren was 27.5 meters away from her family.

In Cary's basketball career, he's made 80% of his free throws, plus or minus 5%. If he attempts 200 free throws this season, what is the range of successful free throws he can expect to make?

Answers

Answer:

150 to 170 successful free throws

Step-by-step explanation:

Total % of free throws made = 80%±5%

If attempted number of free throws = 200

Range of successful free throws to expect :

(80% - 5%) of 200 TO (80% + 5%) of 200

75% of 200 TO 85% of 200

(0.75 * 200) TO (0.85 * 200)

Arranging from longest (at top) to shortest (at bottom)

DF

EF

DE

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to place the sides of triangle DE, DF and EF from longest to shortest.

The triangle has longest side that is opposite to the largest angle

We know two angles < E= 61° , <F= 59° we need to find <D

Sum of angles of triangle = 180°

So, 61°+59°+<D=180°

120°+<D=180°

<D=180°-120°

<D=60°

So, the largest angle is <E= 61°

The longest side must be opposite to <E so, the side is DF

The second largest angle is <D=60° so, second side will be EF

The smallest angle is <F=59° so, third (shortest) side will be DE

Arranging from longest (at top) to shortest (at bottom)

DF

4x-7y=3
x-7y=-15

Answers

Answer:

x = 6, y =3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-7y=3

x-7y=-15

Multiply the first equation by -1

-4x+7y=-3

Then add this to the second equation to eliminate y

-4x+7y=-3

x-7y=-15

------------------

-3x +0y = -18

-3x = -18

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 = -18/-3

x = 6

Now find y

x -7y = -15

6 -7y = -15

Subtract 6 from each side

6-7y-6 = -15-6

-7y = -21

Divide by -7

-7y/-7 = -21/-7

y =3

Answers

Answer:

2.a. The price of 2.75 kg of pears is $4.62

2.b. The price of 0.19 kg of Pears is $ 0.3192

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The price of each kilogram of Pears = $1.68

Therefore, we have;

The price of a given mass of Pears = The mass in Kg of the Pears × The price per kg of Pears

2.a. The price of 2.75 kg of pears = The mass × The price per Kg = $1.68/kg × 2.75 kg = $4.62

The price of 2.75 kg of pears = $4.62

2.b. The price of 0.19 kg of Pears = The mass × The price per Kg = $1.68/kg × 0.19 kg = $ 0.3192

Monday's high temperature in Denver, Colorado was 25°F. The low temperature was
-4° F. What was the difference between the high and low temperatures?

Answers

Answer:

The difference between the high and low temperatures is 29°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtraction

The high temperature in Denver, Colorado was 25°F on Monday.

The low temperature was -4°F in the same place.

We are required to find the difference between the high and low temperatures.

We need to subtract 25 and -4:

Difference = 25°F - (-4°F)

Note we change the sign of the subtraction multiplying (-1) by (-1);

Difference = 25°F + 4°F

Difference = 29°F

The difference between the high and low temperatures is 29°F

vertical stretching by a factor of 0.1, vertical translation 4 units down, reflection across the y-axis

vertical stretching by a factor of 0.1, vertical translation 4 units up, reflection across the x-axis

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

Reflection across the x-axis, vertical compression by a factor of 0.1, vertical translation 4 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is f(x) = -0.1·cos(x) - 4

The parent cosine function is cos(x)

Therefore, f(x) = -0.1·cos(x) - 4 can be obtained from the parent cosine function as follows;

The negative sign in the function gives a reflection across the x-axis

The 0.1 factor of the cosine function gives a compression of 0.1

The constant -4, gives a vertical translation 4 units down

Therefore, the correct option is a reflection across the x-axis, vertical compression by a factor of 0.1, vertical translation 4 units down.

Answer:

✔ vertical compression by a factor of 0.5

reflection across the y-axis

✔ vertical translation 3 units down

vertical stretch by a factor of 0.5

✔ reflection across the x-axis

vertical translation 0.5 units down

Suppose there are two circles where the radius of one circle is twice the radius of the other circle. Each circle has an arc where the measures of the corresponding central angles are the same. What is the relationship between the arc lengths in the two circles? Explain. (2 points)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]L=2l[/tex] where [tex]l,L[/tex] denote arc lengths of two circles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]l,L[/tex] denote arc lengths of two circles, [tex]r,R[/tex] denote corresponding radii and

[tex]\alpha _1\,,\alpha _2[/tex] denote the corresponding central angles.

So,

[tex]l=r\alpha _1[/tex] and [tex]L=R\alpha _2[/tex]

This implies [tex]\alpha _1=\frac{l}{r}[/tex] and [tex]\alpha _2=\frac{L}{R}[/tex]

As each circle has an arc where the measures of the corresponding central angles are the same, [tex]\alpha _1=\alpha _2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{l}{r}=\frac{L}{R}[/tex]

As radius of one circle is twice the radius of the other circle,

[tex]R=2r[/tex]

[tex]\frac{l}{r}=\frac{L}{2r}\\\frac{l}{1} =\frac{L}{2}\\L=2l[/tex]
