a ball is dropped from a height of 512 inches onto a level floor. after the fourth bounce it is still 2 inches off the ground. presuming that the height the ball bounces is always the same fraction of the height reached on the previous bounce. what is that fraction? A) 1/4 B) 3/7 C) 5/9 D)4/7 E)3/5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that before the 1st bounce, the height of the ball is 512 inches.

Say the fraction is x.

Then, after the first bounce, the height of the ball is 512 * x = 512x.

After the second bounce, the height is now x * 512x = 512x².

By similar reasoning, the height after the third bounce is 512x³ and after the fourth bounce, it is [tex]512x^4[/tex].

We also know that after the fourth bounce, the height is 2 inches. So, set 2 equal to [tex]512x^4[/tex]:

2 = [tex]512x^4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 512:

[tex]x^4=2/512[/tex][tex]x^4=2/512=1/256[/tex]

Take the fourth root of both sides:

[tex]x=\sqrt[4]{1/256} =1/4[/tex]

Hence, the answer is A.

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is exponential decay so we  have , where x = the fraction:

512(x)^4 = 2

x^4 = 1/256

x= 1 / (256)^0.25

= 1/4

What is Number system?

A number system is defined as a system of writing to express numbers.

We need to find

positive integers less than 1,000,000 have exactly one digit equal to 9 and have a sum of digits equal to 13

Let all 9 numbers ae

a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+9=13

a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h=13-9

a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h=4

Then we use combinations

Let f(x) = x - 1 and g(x) = x^2 - x. Find and simplify the expression. (f + g)(1) (f +g)(1) = ______

Answers

Answer:

The simplified answer of the given expression is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you see (f + g)(x), then it means that you are going to add f(x) and g(x) together. So, we are going to add the terms together that are given in the problem. We are also given the value of x which is 1. So, we are going to combine this information together so we can simplify the expression.

(f + g)(1)

f(x) = x - 1

g(x) = x²

(f + g)(1) = (1 - 1) + (1²)

Simplify the terms in the parentheses.

(f + g)(1) = 0 + 1

Add 0 and 1.

(f + g)(1) = 1

So, (f + g)(1) will have a simplified answer of 1.

You are certain to get a red card when selecting 27 cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a probability value between 0 and 1 inclusiv

Answers

Answer:

If something is guaranteed, it has a probability of 100%, or 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard deck has 52 cards. Of these, half are red cards (diamonds and hearts) and half are black cards (clovers and spades)

Half of the deck is 26 cards (52 ÷ 2 = 26), so you have 26 red and 26 black cards.

What this means in our context is, if we draw 27 cards, even if we drew all 26 black cards, we would still have 1 red card.

So the probability is 100%, or 1, of drawing a red card when we pick 27 cards from a deck, no matter how it's shuffled

The probability of getting a red card is 1.

No matter how you shuffle the cards, the no of cards will remain the same.

Therefore, it will not affect the probability.

What is probability?

Probability is simply how likely something is to happen. Whenever we're unsure about the outcome of an event, we can talk about the probabilities of certain outcomes—how likely they are. The analysis of events governed by probability is called statistics.

What is 2-(-8)????? And how do you solve it????

Answers

Answer: 10

Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive. So 2-(-8) is really 2+8 = 10.

With something like 2-8, we start at 2 and move to the left 8 units to arrive at -6 on the number line. When we do 2-(-8), we start at 2 and move 8 units in the opposite direction since -8 is the opposite of 8.

In terms of money, you can think of a negative number as an IOU or it represents the amount of debt. Writing -8 means you are 8 dollars in debt. If we subtract away debt, then we have less of it and effectively its the same as adding dollars to your pocket. Subtracting away 8 dollars of debt is the same as adding 8 dollars to your pocket, which is one interpretation of how 2-(-8) is the same as 2+8.

Given the equations, which of the following represents z1 * z2? Using the same values in #6, which of the following represents z1/z2 in standard form?

The selected answers are incorrect.

Answers

Answer:

First Attachment : Option A,

Second Attachment : Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

z₁ = [tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))[/tex] and z₂ = [tex]4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]

Therefore if we want to determine z₁( z₂ ), we would have to find the trigonometric form of the following expression,

[tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))*4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]

( Combine expressions )

= [tex]12(\cos ( \pi /6+\pi / 3 ) + i\sin (\pi /6 +\pi / 3 )[/tex]

( Let's now add [tex]\pi / 6 + \pi / 3[/tex], further simplifying this expression )

[tex]\frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi }{3} = \frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi 2}{6} = \frac{\pi +\pi 2}{6} = \frac{3\pi }{6} = \pi / 2[/tex]

( Substitute )

[tex]12(\cos ( \pi /2 ) + i\sin ( \pi /2 ) )[/tex]

And therefore the correct solution would be option a, for the first attachment.

______________________________________________

For this second attachment, we would have to solve for the following expression,

[tex]\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)\right)}[/tex]

From which we know that cos(π/6) = √3 / 2, sin(π/6) = 1 / 2, cos(π/3) = 1 / 2, and sin(π/3) = √3 / 2. Therefore,

[tex]\:\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)\right)}:\quad \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-\frac{3}{8}i[/tex]

Our solution for the second attachment will be option c.

What we need to memorize when finding the slope is this formula:

[tex] \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }[/tex]

m here represents the slope. I hope this does not confuse you with line m.

The problem here is that we do not have any given points, but we have a way.

If we notice on the graph, the graph contains or passes through (2,-1) and (-2,1). We can use these points to find the slope. So let these be the following:

[tex] \displaystyle \large{(x_1,y_1) = (2 ,- 1)} \\ \displaystyle \large{(x_2,y_2) = ( - 2 ,1)} [/tex]

Then we substitute these points in the formula.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{ 1 - ( - 1)}{ - 2 - 2} }[/tex]

negative × negative = positive.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{ 1 + 1}{ - 2 - 2} } \\ \displaystyle \large{m = \frac{ 2}{ - 4} } \longrightarrow \boxed{m = - \frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

Since m represents the slope. Therefore, the slope of line m is -1/2

What are permutations?

The different arrangements which can be made out of a given number of objects by taking out some or all at a time are called permutations.

The number of different permutations of n objects with m₁ repeated items, m₂ repeated items,...,mₙ repeated items can be calculated as;

m!/(m₁!)(m₂!)...(mₙ!)

Here, the letter of the word 'MILLION' is a total of 7 letters.

The locksmith is 37.9 kilometers west of the bank and 77.9 kilometers west of the garbage dump. The garbage dump is 128.6 kilometers east of the pet store. The pet store is 35.0 kilometers north of the hardware store. Which is closer to the pet store, the hardware store or the locksmith?

Answers

The correct answer is Hardware store

Explanation:

In this case, you need to determine the distance between the pet store and the locksmith to know if the distance is longer than the one from the pet store and the hardware (35 kilometers). Now this distance can be calculated by subtracting the distance from the locksmith to the garbage dump from the total distance between the pet store and the garbage dump. This is because the locksmith is between the pet store and the garbage, which means the distance between the pet store and the locksmith is a portion of the total distance, which is the distance from the pet store and the garbage dump. The process is shown below:

128.6 kilometers (distance from the garbage dump to the pet store) - 77.9 kilometers (distance from the garbage dump to the locksmith) = 50.7 (distance from the locksmith to the pet store

50.7 kilometers is greater than 35 kilometers, which means the  hardware store is closer to the pet store
