Kendra dives off a diving board into the water and then comes back up to the surface. Her dive can be modeled by the equation: , where "h" is the height in feet and "x" is the horizontal distance in feet from the diving board. 1) How high is the diving board? 2) How deep does the diver dive into the water? 3) At what horizontal distance from the board does the diver enter the water? 4) At what horizontal distance from the board does the diver come to the surface of the water after the dive?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 6 feet

2. 6.25 feet

3. 1 feet

4. 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is : [tex]$h(x)=x^2-7x+6$[/tex]

1. The diving board is where Kendra dives off. Here, the horizontal distance, x from the diving board is 0.

So, substituting x = 0 in the equation, we get

[tex]$h(0)=0^2-7(0)+6$[/tex]

       [tex]$=0-0+6$[/tex]

       [tex]$=6$[/tex]

So, the diving board is 6 feet above the surface of the water.

2. From the equation, we known that it is a parabola and the vertex is minimum.

   It is the minimum height which represents the depth Kendra dives into the water.

So the [tex]$x$[/tex] coordinate of the vertex is = [tex]$\frac{-b}{2a}$[/tex]

Here, a and b are the coefficients of linear term and the quadratic terms in the equation. Therefore,

a = 1 and b = -7

∴  x coordinate = [tex]$\frac{-(-7)}{2 \times 1} $[/tex]

                         [tex]$\frac{7}{2}=3.5$[/tex]

Now substituting to find f(x),

[tex]$h(3.5)=(3.5)^2-7(3.5)+6$[/tex]

         = -6.25

Therefore, the diver dives 6.25 feet below the water surface.

3. The horizontal distance from the board the diver enters into the water.

This is the y-intercept and it is the value of x when h(x)=0.

∴ [tex]$0=x^2-7x+6$[/tex]

Factorizing, we get   [tex]$(x-1)(x-6)=0$[/tex]

∴ [tex]$x=1 \text{ or}\ x=6$[/tex]

So there are two solutions that are the two x intercepts of the function. Here at x = 1 shows the horizontal distance from the board from where Kendra dives into the water.

4. We know that the equation given has [tex]$\text{two}$[/tex] x intercepts. These two x intercepts  are the points where the parabola crosses the x-axis, which is the height [tex]$h(x)=0$[/tex]. The height is the water surface level.

The first x intercept represents the points where Kendra dives into the water.

And the second x intercept is the point where Kendra comes out of the water surface. This this is [tex]$x=6$[/tex] for [tex]$h(x)=0$[/tex].

Thus Kendra dives out of the water surface at 6 feet from the board.

Answers

Answer:5.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. The distance between the point Q and the ground is h-[L cos(80°)].

What is Tangent (Tanθ)?

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. it is given as,

[tex]\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

The Base is the adjacent smaller side of the angle θ.

Let the height of the support be h and the height between the point q and the ground is x. Also, the distance between point Q and the support of the seesaw is L.

Now if we look at the ΔQAR, the measure of the ∠QRA is 80°, therefore, the sine of ∠QRA can be written as,

[tex]\rm Cos(\theta)=\dfrac{Base}{Perpendicular}\\\\Cos(\angle QRA) = \dfrac{AR}{QR}\\\\Cos(\angle QRA) = \dfrac{h-x}{L}\\\\L \times Cos(80^o)=h-x\\\\x=h-[L\ Cos(80^o)][/tex]

Hence, the distance between the point Q and the ground is h-[L cos(80°)].

Step-by-step explanation:

There is really only one solution which is the third choice. When you are dealing with the equation in the form of y = mx + b, the b stands for the y-intercept. So, your y-intercept equals -1. When you are finding the x-intercept you can just substitute y for 0(the definition of x-intercept is where the graph crosses the x-axis, meaning y needs to be equal to 0) and you get that x equals 1/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding x: 85+2x+x-10=180

3x= 105

x= 35

x-10 = angle 3 due to a property of parallels lines so put x in to get that angle 3 is 25 degrees

angle 2x = 70 degrees

70 + 25+angle 1 = 180

angle 1 = 85

angle 2 = 180-85-25 = 70

3² x 3.14 = 28.26 x 2 = 56.52 so that the area of the bases

3 x 2 x 3.14 = 18.85 x 4 = 75.4

75.4 + 56.52 = 131.92

aren't perfect. Suppose that 3% of athletes who are not using PEDs will test positive
and be accused of using PEDs. Meanwhile, 1% of athletes who are using PEDs will test
negative and escape detection. Calculate the probability that a randomly selected
athlete will test positive.

Answers

Answer:

There is a 8.11% of any randomly selected athlete to test positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make it easier, let's assume there are 100 athletes

5/100 have it

3/95 do not have it, but will test positive

1% of the 5 athletes who are using PEDs = 0.05%

This means that 4.95/100 will test positive

3/95 = 3.16%

(rounded, if you need a more precise answer, it's 3.1578947368421053)

3.16% + 4.95% = 8.11%
