Write a introduction paragraph on Cycling ( English)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let's look back at the history of the world and reflect on some of the great new methods of transportation that have been invented. There were cars, motorbikes, cycles, carriages, trains, boats, carts and horseback. Cycles have by far been the most economical and productive to use. The first was made in 1817 by Karl von Drais. Since then, many improvements and changes have been made to the original design, like making equally sized wheels, adding rubber tires, etc.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cycling, also called bicycling or biking, is the use of bicycles for transport, recreation, exercise or sport. People engaged in cycling are referred to as "cyclists", "bicyclists", or "bikers". Apart from two-wheeled bicycles, "cycling" also includes the riding of unicycles, tricycles, quadracycles, recumbent and similar human-powered vehicles (HPVs).

Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century and now number approximately one billion worldwide. They are the principal means of transportation in many parts of the world.

Cycling is widely regarded as a very effective and efficient mode of transportation optimal for short to moderate distances.

Bicycles provide numerous benefits in comparison with motor vehicles, including the sustained physical exercise involved in cycling, easier parking, increased maneuverability, and access to roads, bike paths and rural trails. Cycling also offers a reduced consumption of fossil fuels, less air or noise pollution, and much reduced traffic congestion. These lead to less financial cost to the user as well as to society at large (negligible damage to roads, less road area required). By fitting bicycle racks on the front of buses, transit agencies can significantly increase the areas they can serve

In addition, cycling provides a variety of health benefits. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that cycling can reduce the risk of cancers, heart disease, and diabetes that are prevalent in sedentary lifestyles. Cycling on stationary bikes have also been used as part of rehabilitation for lower limb injuries, particularly after hip surgery. Individuals who cycle regularly have also reported mental health improvements, including less perceived stress and better vitality.

Among the disadvantages of cycling are the requirement of bicycles (excepting tricycles or quadracycles) to be balanced by the rider in order to remain upright, the reduced protection in crashes in comparison to motor vehicles, often longer travel time (except in densely populated areas), vulnerability to weather conditions, difficulty in transporting passengers, and the fact that a basic level of fitness is required for cycling moderate to long distances.

Reflect the given preimage over y=−1 followed by y=−7. Find the new coordinates. What one transformation is this double reflection the same as? (Note: when you are reflecting over a y= line, the x-values of the preimage will remain the same and you will be changing the y-values)

Answers

Answer:

Reflecting over y = -1 line:

A'(8, -10)

B'(10, -8)

C'(2, -4)

Reflecting over y = -7 line:

A''(8, -4)

B'(10, -6)

C''(2, -10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflect the given preimage over y=−1 followed

by y=−7. Find the new coordinates. What one transformation is this double reflection the same as? (Note: when you are reflecting over a y= line, the x-values of the preimage will remain the same and you will be changing the y-values)

The coordinates of the preimage are:

A(8,8)

B(10,6)

C(2,2)

Answer: Reflecting over y = -1:

If a point is reflected over a y line, the x values remain the same while the y values change.

For point A(8, 8): The y distance between the y = - 1 line and point A is 9 units. (8- (-1)). If point A is reflected, the y value would be 9 units below the y = -1 line, i.e the new y coordinate would be at -10 (-1-9)

The new coordinate is at A'(8, -10)

For point B(10, 6): The y distance between the y = - 1 line and point B is 7 units. (6- (-1)). If point B is reflected, the y value would be 7 units below the y = -1 line, i.e the new y coordinate would be at -8 (-1-7)

The new coordinate is at B'(10, -8)

For point C(2, 2): The y distance between the y = - 1 line and point C is 3 units. (2- (-1)). If point C is reflected, the y value would be 3 units below the y = -1 line, i.e the new y coordinate would be at -4 (-1-3)

The new coordinate is at C'(2, -4)

Reflecting over y = -7 line:

For point A'(8, -10): The y distance between the y = - 7 line and point A' is 3 units. (-7- (-10)). If point A' is reflected, the y value would be 3 units above the y = -7 line, i.e the new y coordinate would be at -4 (-7+3)

The new coordinate is at A''(8, -4)

For point B'(10, -8): The y distance between the y = - 7 line and point B' is 1 units. (-7- (-8)). If point B' is reflected, the y value would be 1 units above the y = -7 line, i.e the new y coordinate would be at -6 (-7 + 1)

The new coordinate is at B'(10, -6)

For point C'(2, -4): The y distance between the y = - 7 line and point C' is 3 units. (-4- (-7)). If point C' is reflected, the y value would be 3 units below the y = -7 line, i.e the new y coordinate would be at -10 (-7-3)

The new coordinate is at C''(2, -10)

We can also see that h= −7−(−1)=−6. We know that two reflections is the same as a translation of 2h  units down. So 2(−6) is a translation of −12 units down.

What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio? Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence. On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).

Answers

Answer:

a(n) = 1(2.5)^(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric sequence is 1, 2.5, 6.25, 15.625, and so on; the first term is 1.  The common ratio is 2.5; each new term is 2.5 times the previous term.

The explicit formula desired is thus a(n) = 1(2.5)^(n - 1)

How do I figure of the 7/3 I'm not sure how to add a fraction with a different denomination

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!!

Here, the thing is we should add them first yaa.

so, let's add them

[tex] = - 2 \frac{1}{6} + \frac{7}{3} [/tex]

by taking lcm we get their lcm is 6 and let's do it according to that,

[tex] = \frac{ - 12 \times 1}{6} + \frac{7 \times 2}{6} [/tex]

now, let's simplify them ok..

[tex] = \frac{ - 12 + 14}{6} [/tex]

so, we get 2/6 (i.e 1/3)

now, the number line must be greator than 1 and less than 1.

Hope it helps...

Basically How many times does 3 go into 7. 7/3 = 2 1/3. The way that you make the denominators the same is by finding the lowest common denominator which is 6. You multiply the denominator so that it is the same as the other denominator. Which would be 3 times 2 then since you multiply the denominator by to you multiply the numerator by 2. So you will have -2 1/6 and 2 2/6

Find the odds for and the odds against the event rolling a fair die and getting a 4, a 2, or a 1.

Answers

Answer: Both in favor and against: 3/6 OR 1/2 OR 50%.

Step-by-step explanation: Both in favor and against: 3/6 OR 1/2 OR 50%.

The probability of rolling one die and getting any digit is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]. That is because the desired outcome is only 1 digit out of the 6 total digits on each of the six sides.

That means the probability of rolling either a 1, a 2, or a 4 if you are looking for any of those numbers specifically, is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]. But! You are looking to roll a 1, a 2, or a 4, without any preference among those three. Therefore, you are going to add the desired outcomes.

[tex]\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 0.5 = 50%

Above, are added the probability of rolling a 1 PLUS the probability of rolling a 2 PLUS the probability of rolling a 4, yielding a 50% probability.

Think about it. There are six total digits on a die. You are okay with rolling three of those. Three is half of six. Therefore, the probability of rolling the number you'd like is one-half, fifty-percent.

Likewise, since the probability of all complement events happening is 1 (or 100%), The odds against rolling either 1, 2, or 4 is also fifty-percent. 100% (which is rolling any number on a die) MINUS 50% (which is rolling a 1, a 2, or a 4 with no preference) EQUALS TO 50% (which is rolling a 3, a 5, or a 6).

1. 12  (isosceles triangles have equal legs from the vertex)

2. 55 deg. (isosceles triangles have equal base angles)

3. 90 = 180-45-45 (isosceles triangles have equal base angles)

4. 2x-8 = 10

=> x = 18/2 = 9 (isosceles triangles have equal legs from the vertex)

5. sum of angles of triangle = 180

3x+3x+2x+4 = 180 => 8x = 176, x = 22, angle A = 3x = 66 deg.

6. sum of angles of triangle = 180

(isosceles triangles have equal base angles)

25+25+angle Z = 180 => angle Z = 180-25-25 = 130

Your answer would be 130

Answers

Answer:

y= 125,000 (1.15x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: y = 125000(1.15)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we use is y = p(1 + r)^x p is price and r is rate

the initial price is $125000 and the rate is 15%, or 0.15.

y = 125000(1 + 0.15)^x

y = 125000(1.15)^x
