Hope is the coach of the Wilson High School girls' soccer team. There are 3 minutes left in the game they are currently playing, and they are losing by 1 goal. In the past, when losing by 1 goal, Hope has pulled a defender out of the game and replaced her with a forward a total of 9 times. When in the same position, she has left the defender in the game 10 times. In the situations when Hope has pulled her defender, the team has lost 4 times, tied 2 times, and won 3 times. In situations when she has left her defender in the game, the team has lost 1 time, tied 3 times, and won 6 times. Based on the information above, if the goal is to either tie or win the game, should Hope pull the defender or leave her in the game?

Answers

Answer:

Hope should not pull her defender.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Hope has pulled her defender:

The team had lost 4 times, tied 2 times, and won 3 times.

Hence, the total number of times she meets her goal is:

6 times (Since the goal is to either tie or win the game )

Hence, the probability that she meets her goal is =   6/9=2/3=0.66

When she  left her defender in the game:

The team has lost 1 time, tied 3 times, and won 6 times.

Hence, the total number of times she meets her goal is: 9

Hence, the probability that she meets her goal is: 9/10=0.9

As the probability of meeting her goal is more when she left her defender in the game is more.

 Hence, Hope should not pull her defender.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the circumference of the circle. We know that the radius is 4 and the formula is πd or 2πr

Leaving it in terms of pi, the circumference is 8π

Now we need to find the length of the arc.

Since the missing part of the circle is labeled with a right angle, we know that it's exactly 1/4 of the whole circle. That means the arc we need to find is 3/4 of the circumference.

3/4 of 8π is 6π

The biomass B(t) of a fishery is the total mass of the members of the fish population at time t. It is the product of the number of individuals N(t) in the population and the average mass M(t) of a fish at time t. In the case of guppies, breeding occurs continually. Suppose that at time t = 5 weeks the population is 824 guppies and is growing at a rate of 50 guppies per week, while the average mass is 1.3 g and is increasing at a rate of 0.14 g/week. At what rate is the biomass increasing when t = 5? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) B'(5) = g/week

Answers

Answer:

The rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is 180.36 g/week

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

t = 5 weeks

Population N(t) = 824 guppies

Growth Rate [tex]\dfrac{dN(t)}{dt}= 50 \ guppies /week[/tex]

average mass M(t) = 1.3 g

increase rate of biomass  [tex]\dfrac{dM (t)}{t}[/tex]= 0.14 g/week

Therefore; the rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is:

[tex]\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}= M(t) * \dfrac{dN(t)}{dt}+ N(t)* \dfrac{dM (t)}{t}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}=1.3 * 50+ 824* 0.14[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}=65+115.36[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}=180.36 \ g/week}[/tex]

The rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is 180.36 g/week

The rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is 180.36 g/week

Calculation of the rate:

Since time = 5 weeks, Population N(t) = 824 guppies, and growth rate = 50 guppies / week, average mass = 1.3g, and the increase rate of biomass is 0.14g/week

So,

[tex]= 1.3\times 50 + 824 \times 0.14[/tex]

= 65 + 115.36

= 180.35 g/weel

Triangle ABC has vertices at A(2,5), B(4,11) and C(-1,6). Determine the angles in this triangle.
I need this solved using vectors please

Answers

Answer:

The angles are

∠A = 90°, ∠B = 26.56°, ∠C = 63.43°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the angles of a vector are given as follows;

[tex]cos\left ( \theta \right ) = \dfrac{\mathbf{a\cdot b}}{\left | \mathbf{a} \right |\left | \mathbf{b} \right |}[/tex]

Whereby the vertices are represented as

A= (2, 5, 0), B = (4, 11, 0), C = (-1, 6, 0),

AB =(4, 11, 0) - (2, 5, 0) = (2, 6, 0) ,  BA = (-2, -6, 0)

BC = (-1, 6, 0) - (4, 11, 0) = (-5, -5, 0), CB = (5, 5, 0)

AC = (-1, 6, 0) - (2, 5, 0) = (-3, 1, 0), CA = (3, -1, 0)

θ₁ = AB·AC

a·c = a₁c₁ + a₂c₂ + a₃c₃ = 2×(-3) + 6×1 = 0

Therefore, θ₁ = 90°

BA·BC = (-2)×(-5) + (-6)×(-5) = 40

[tex]{\left | \mathbf{}BA \right |\left | \mathbf{}BC \right |}[/tex] = (√((-2)² + (-6)²)) × (√((-5)² + (-5)²)) = 44.72

cos(θ₂) = 40/44.72 = 0.894

cos⁻¹(0.894) =θ₂= 26.56°

CA·CB = 5×3 + 5×(-1) = 10

[tex]{\left | \mathbf{}CA \right |\left | \mathbf{}CB \right |}[/tex] = (√((3)² + (-1)²)) × (√((5)² + (5)²)) = 22.36

10/22.36 = 0.447

cos(θ₃) = 0.447

θ₃ = cos⁻¹(0.447) = 63.43°.

Starting at sea level, a submarine descended at a constant rate to a depth of −5/6 mile relative to sea level in 4 minutes. What was the submarine's depth relative to sea level after the first minute? Answer with a fraction :3

Answers

Answer:

-5/24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The submarine descends at a rate of -5/6 miles every 4 minutes.

To find the depth of the submarine relative to sea level after the first minute, we have to multiply the rate of descent by he time spent (1 minute). That is:

[tex]\frac{\frac{-5}{6} }{4} * 1[/tex]

=> D = -5 / (6 * 4) = -5/24 miles

Therefore, the submarine's depth is -5/24 miles.

6. Find d.


Please help

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we are going to do is to fill in the other angles that we need to solve this problem. You could find ALL of them but all of them isn't necessary. So looking at the obtuse angle next to the 35 degree angle...we know that those are supplementary so 180 - 35 = the obtuse angle in the small triangle. 180 - 35 = 145. Within the smaller triangle we have now the 145 and the 10, and since, by the Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem all the angles have to add up to equal 180, then 180 - (10 + 145) = the 3rd angle, so the third angle is 180 - 155 = 25. Now let's get to the problem. If I were you, I'd draw that out like I did to keep track of these angles cuz I'm going to name them by their degree. In order to find d, we need to first find the distance between d and the right angle. We'll call that x. The reference angle is 35, the side opposite that angle is 12 and the side we are looking for, x, is adjacent to that angle. So we will use the tan ratio to find x:

[tex]tan(35)=\frac{12}{x}[/tex] Isolating x:

[tex]x=\frac{12}{tan(35)}[/tex] so

x = 17.1377 m

Now we have everything we need to find d. We will use 25 degrees as our reference angle, and the side opposite it is 12 and the side adjacent to it is

d + 17.1377, so that is the tan ratio as well:

[tex]tan(25)=\frac{12}{d+17.1377}[/tex] and simplifying a bit:

[tex]d+17.1377=\frac{12}{tan(25)}[/tex] and a bit more:

d + 17.1377 = 25.73408 so

d = 8.59, rounded

Determine the value of x.

In the figure, m∠CED = m∠A. Complete the following proportions: ED/ A F= CE/? = CD/?

Answers

Answer:

The completed proportions are;

ED/A_F = CE/CA = CF/CD

Step-by-step explanation:

The given m∠CED = m∠A

∴ Angle ∠CDE = Angle ∠A_FC, (corresponding angles)

Angle ∠ECD = Angle ∠ACF (reflexive property)

Triangle ΔDCE is similar to triangle ΔACF (Angle Angle Angle (AAA) similarity)

In triangle ΔDCE and triangle ΔACF

m∠A is bounded by CA and A_F

m∠CED is bounded by CE and ED

∠DCE is bounded by CE and DE

∠C is bounded by CA and CF

Based on the orientation of the two triangles, we have

ED is the corresponding side to A_F, CD is the  corresponding side to CF, CE is the corresponding side to CA

Therefore, we have;

ED/A_F = CE/CA = CF/CD.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we need two things.  The law of sines, and the sum of the interior angles of a triangle.

The law of sines is simply:

sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c

And the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180.

45 + 110 + <C = 180

<C = 25

We can find the sides by simply applying the law of sines.

length b

7/sin(25) = b/sin(110)

b = 7sin(110)/sin(25)

b = 15.56

length a

7/sin(25) = a/sin(45)

a = 7sin(45)/sin(25)

a = 11.71
