expressions/524808: evaluate 5y+2 when y=1/5 1 solutions Answer 347912 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 23:46:07 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Replace the with the number and do the arithmetic. John My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it

Quadratic_Equations/524747: each point lies on a parabola that has its vertex at (0,1) write the equation of the parabola. Indicate whether the graph opens up or down. (-1,6) 1 solutions Answer 347911 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 23:43:48 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the vertex is on the -axis, symmetry says that if is on the parabola, is on the parabola. Now that we have three points on the parabola we can write the equation. All parabolas with a vertical axis of symmetry can be described by a function of the form: So, if the point is on the parabola, then Then, if the point is on the parabola, then Then, if the point is on the parabola, then Substituting the known value of we are left with a 2X2 system: And then substituting the now known coefficients into the function definition: Since the lead coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upward. John My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it

Probability-and-statistics/524745: In our population of men, height is normally distributed with 70 inches(5'10') being the mean height. What is the probability that a randomly selected man will be 74 inches(6'2') or taller. 1 solutions Answer 347894 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 22:09:18 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

A bunch. Where is the number of combinations of things taken at a time and is calculated by You can save yourself half the work by using symmetry: Also, in Excel (on the PC) or Numbers (on a Mac) the formula yields just fill in the numbers for and that you need. John My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it

Travel_Word_Problems/524690: A boat leaves a harbor and sails east at a speed of 18 miles per hour. A second boat leaves the same harbor and sails east at a speed of 28 miles per hour. The first boat leaves the harbor at 2PM. The second boat leaves at 3PM. What time will the second boat catch up to the first boat? 1 solutions Answer 347846 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 20:29:04 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! How far did the first boat go in the first hour? Then how long would it take to travel that distance at the DIFFERENCE in the two boats' speeds?

Rate-of-work-word-problems/524685: A light bulb consumes watt-hours per day. How many watt-hours does it consume in days and hours? 1 solutions Answer 347845 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 20:27:36 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! If it consumes watt-hours per day, then it consumes watt-hours per hour. In days and hours, it would consume: watt-hours. John My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it

test/524687: Y=X+Z/3 for Z 1 solutions Answer 347841 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 20:24:10 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Add -X to both sides. Multiply both sides by 3. John My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it

Proportions/524684: Mary,Bob, and Dylan contributed money to the college fund in the ratio of 3:5:8. If they contributed $464, how much did each person contribute to the fund? 1 solutions Answer 347840 by solver91311(16897)   on 2011-11-01 20:22:37 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Centroid: Calculate the coordinates of the mid-points of AC and BC. Use the mid-point formulas: and Write an equation for a line that passes through point A and the mid-point of BC. Use the two-point form of an equation of a line: where and are the coordinates of the given points. Then write an equation for a line that passes through point B and the mid-point of AC Using any convenient method, solve this 2X2 system. The solution set will be the centroid of the triangle -- the point of intersection of the three triangle medians. Orthocenter: Calculate the slope of sides AB and BC of the triangle using the slope formula: where and are the coordinates of the given points. Then, using the point-slope form of an equation, and the fact that perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals, write equations of the two altitudes to sides AB and BC -- lines perpendicular to AC and passing through B and perpendicular to BC and passing through A. Solve the 2X2 system. The intersection of the two altitudes is the orthocenter. Circumcenter Using the slopes calculated above for AB and BC and the mid-points calculated for the Centroid solution, write equations of the perpendicular bisectors of AB and BC. Perpendicular to AB and passing through the mid-point of AB, then perpendicular to BC and passing through the mid-point of BC. Solve the 2X2 system.
