Find the height of a 16-year-old boy in the 96th percentile.


State your answer to the nearest inch

The next model airplane will be 16 feet long.

To find the length of Aura's next model airplane, we need to multiply the length of her first model airplane by 4, since she wants the next one to be 4 times as long as the first. Therefore, the length of her next model airplane would be:

4 feet (length of first model airplane) x 4 = 16 feet

So, the length of her next model airplane would be 16 feet.

Note that this assumes that Aura's first model airplane is the baseline for measurement and that the "4" in the question refers to a factor of 4, not an additional 4 feet. If the question were interpreted differently, the answer may be different.

first off, let's look at the equation of the circle

[tex]\textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ (x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2 \hspace{5em}\stackrel{center}{(\underset{}{h}~~,~~\underset{}{k})}\qquad \stackrel{radius}{\underset{}{r}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ (x-\stackrel{h}{3})^2+(y-\stackrel{k}{7})=169\implies (x-\stackrel{h}{3})^2+(y-\stackrel{k}{7})=\stackrel{ r }{13^2}[/tex]

so we have a circle centered at (3 , 7) with a radius of 13, Check the picture below.

so the line we want is the line in purple, which is tangential to the circle and therefore perpendicular to the blue line.

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, let's check for the slope of the blue line

[tex](\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{\large rise}} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{7}}}{\underset{\textit{\large run}} {\underset{x_2}{15}-\underset{x_1}{3}}} \implies \cfrac{ -5 }{ 12 } \implies - \cfrac{5 }{ 12 } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill[/tex]

Where:

At data point (1, 10 1/3) and a slope of -1/3, a linear equation for this line can be calculated or determined by using the point-slope form as follows:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 10 1/3 = -1/3(x - 1)

y - 31/3 = -x/3 + 1/3

To determine if two lines intersect, compare their slopes and y-intercepts, and solve their equations simultaneously.

To determine if two lines intersect, you need to compare their key features, such as their slope and y-intercept.

If the slopes of the two lines are different, then they will intersect at some point.

If the slopes are the same, then the lines may or may not intersect, depending on whether or not their y-intercepts are also the same.

To find the point of intersection, you can set the two linear functions equal to each other and solve for the variable. The resulting value will give you the x-coordinate of the intersection point, which can then be substituted back into either equation to find the corresponding y-coordinate.

Answer:

Problem 8:
Option C)       DE = √21

Problem 9:
Option C)     Perimeter = 30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Problem 8

Draw a line segment connecting the center of the circle, X, to A. This is the radius of the circle

The points ABX form a right triangle with AX as the hypotenuse and AB, BX as the legs of the right triangle

By the Pythagorean theorem
hypotenuse² = sum of the squares of the two legs

Plugging in line segment references

AX² = AB² + BX²

We are given AC = 8, BX = 3

Since the segment BX intersects AC at right angles, AB = BC = AC/2

So AB = 8/2= 4

Plugging these values into the Pythagorean formula
AX² = AB² + BX²

AX² = 4² +3²

AX² = 16 + 9

AX² = 25

Draw a line connecting X and D
The points DEX form a right triangle with DX as the hypotenuse and EX and DE as the legs

Again, by the Pythagorean theorem

DX² = DE² + EX²

But DX is the radius of the circle so it must be the same as AX

Substitute for DX in terms of AX
DX² = DE² + EX²

=> AX² = DE² + EX²

But AX² = 25 and EX = 2 giving EX² = 4

Therefore

AX² = DE² + EX² becomes
25 = DE² + 4

DE² = 25 - 4

DE² = 21

DE = √21

This is choice C

Problem 9

To find the perimeter, just add up the individual side lengths:

Perimeter = 10 + 8 + 7 + 5 = 30 cm

Option C

The integral ∫(5/5)dx/√[86(x^2 - x^2)] converges to 5 since the denominator becomes 0 at x=0, which is not in the interval of integration [5,5].

We can start by simplifying the integrand

∫(5/5)dx/√[86(x^2 - x^2)]

Using the identity a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b), we can rewrite the denominator as

√[86(x^2 - x^2)] = √[86(x + x)(x - x)] = √[86] * √[x + x] * √[x - x] = √[86] * √[2x] * √[0] = 0

Therefore, the integrand is undefined when x = 0. Since the interval of integration is [5,5], which does not include 0, the integral is well-defined and converges to 5.

In ΔMNO, possible values of ∠N are 64.6° and 115.4°.

To find the possible values of ∠N, follow these steps:

1. Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, we first find ∠O by subtracting ∠M from 180°: 180° - 38° = 142°.

2. Next, we use the Law of Sines to find the sine of ∠N: sin(∠N) = (n * sin(∠O)) / m = (88 * sin(142°)) / 60.

3. Solve for sin(∠N), which gives us two possible values: sin(∠N) ≈ 0.8988 and sin(∠N) ≈ -0.8988.

4. Find the inverse sine (arcsin) of both values to get the possible angles for ∠N: arcsin(0.8988) ≈ 64.6° and arcsin(-0.8988) ≈ 115.4° (adding 180° to the negative result).

The number of times that the little monsters will do an overhead press and a squat at the same instant  during the drill is: 3 times

We are told that, Rote tells the little monsters to carry out an overhead press every 12 seconds and then also a squat every 30 seconds.

Thus, prime factorization of 12: 2² x 3.

Thus, prime factorization of 30: 2 x 3 x 5.

For us to get the least common multiple, we will have to find the highest power of each of the prime factors that show up in either factorization. Therefore, we can say that the smallest common multiple of 12 and 30 are: 2² x 3 x 5 = 60

This tells us that the little monsters will carry out an overhead press and then a squat at the same instant for every 60 seconds.

For us to find how many times this will occur during the 200-second drill, we will then divide 200 by 60:

200 ÷ 60 = 3 remainder 20

This tells us that there will exist 3 complete cycles of both of the exercises during the 200-second drill, with an additional 20 seconds left over.

Therefore, we can say that the little monsters will do an overhead press and a squat at the same instant 3 times during the drill.

The distance where the ladder is touching the building for triangle 2 is 12 ft

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Ladder 1

Distance along the ground = 12 ft

Distance touching the ladder = 8 ft

Ladder 2

Distance along the ground = 18 ft

Distance touching the ladder = x

Using proportion of similar triangles, we have

x : 18 = 8 : 12

Express as fraction

x/18 = 8/12

So, we have

x = 18 * 8/12

The distance from P to the airplane is y = x + 100 ≈ 628.38 m.

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. It is a fundamental geometric shape and is often used in geometry and trigonometry.

From a certain point Q on a straight road, which forms an angle of 22° with the horizontal, the angle of elevation of an airplane at point A is 57°. At the same instant from another point Q, 100 meters ahead of the first point, the angle of elevation of the airplane is 63°. The points P, Q, and A are in the same vertical plane. Find the distance from P to the airplane.

To solve the problem, we can use the concept of similar triangles. Let's call H the height of the airplane and x the distance from Q to the airplane. Then, the distance from P to the airplane is given by y = x + 100.

From triangle QA1H, we have:

tan(57°) = H / x

From triangle QA2H, we have:

tan(63°) = H / (x + 100)

Dividing these two equations, we get:

tan(57°) / tan(63°) = x / (x + 100)

Solving for x, we get:

x = 100 * tan(63°) / (tan(63°) - tan(57°)) ≈ 528.38 m

Therefore, the distance from P to the airplane is:

y = x + 100 ≈ 628.38 m.

The graph of the function will touch the x-axis at x = -5, but not cross it, and the behavior of the graph near x = -5 will be determined by the degree of the zero (which is 3 in this case).

The polynomial function that represents the volume of a sphere with radius x+5 is given by:

[tex]V(x) = (4/3)\pi (x+5)^3[/tex]

To find the multiplicity of the zero, we need to factor out the (x+5) term from the polynomial:

V(x) = (4/3)π(x+5)(x+5)(x+5)

We can see that the zero is x = -5, and it has a multiplicity of 3, since there are three factors of (x+5) in the polynomial.

This means that the graph of the function will touch the x-axis at x = -5, but not cross it, and the behavior of the graph near x = -5 will be determined by the degree of the zero (which is 3 in this case).

Answer:

Its 12

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   Following PEMDAS, we first solve the equation inside the parentheses.

       -4(-2) = 8

       -12 ÷ 3 = -4

       -20 + 4 = -16

2.    Now, we have the following expression:

       8 + (-4) + (-16)

 3.  Again, following PEMDAS, we solve the equation inside the parentheses first.

       8 + (-4) + (-16) = 8 - 4 - 16

  4. Finally, we solve the equation from left to right.

       8 - 4 - 16 = 8 - (4 + 16)

       8 - (20) = -12

Therefore, the value of the expression is -12.

a) The quantity (in hundreds of units) that will give maximum profit: [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 6x - 3022 = 0

b) The maximum profit is approximately $202,573.42.

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two expressions are equal. It typically contains variables, constants, and mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

(a) To find the quantity that will give maximum profit, we need to find the level of output at which marginal revenue equals marginal cost.

The total revenue function for the monopoly is TR = px, where p is the price and x is the quantity sold. The marginal revenue is the derivative of the total revenue with respect to x, which is MR = d(TR)÷dx = p + x(dp÷dx).

To find the marginal revenue function, we differentiate the demand function with respect to x:

dp÷dx = -(2÷3)x

So, the marginal revenue function is:

MR = (2104 - (1÷3)[tex]x^{2}[/tex]) - (2÷3)[tex]x^{2}[/tex]

To find the marginal cost function, we differentiate the average cost function with respect to x:

dC÷dx = 22 + 2x

So, the marginal cost function is:

MC = 22 + 2x

To find the level of output at which MR = MC, we set the two functions equal to each other:

(2104 - (1÷3)[tex]x^{2}[/tex]) - (2÷3)[tex]x^{2}[/tex] = 22 + 2x

Simplifying this equation, we get:

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 6x - 3022 = 0

(b) Using the quadratic formula, we find that:

x = (-6 ± √( 36- 4(1)(-3022))) / 2(1)

x = (-6 ± √(36444)) / 2

x = (-6 ± 190.81) ÷ 2

x ≈ -98.4 or x ≈ 92.4

Since we can't produce a negative quantity, we choose x ≈ 92.4 as the quantity that will give maximum profit.

Therefore, the level of output that will maximize profit is 924 units (in hundreds of units).
