Use dimensional analysis to determine which rate is greater. The pitcher for the Robins throws a baseball at 90.0 miles per hour. The pitcher on the Bluebirds throws a baseball 125.4 feet per second. Which pitcher throws a baseball faster? Complete the explanation:When I convert the Bluebirds pitcher's speed to the same units as the Robins pitcher's speed the speed is __ mi/h. Since the Bluebirds pitcher's speed is ____ the Robins pitcher's speed, the pitcher on the ____ throws a faster ball.
ANSWER and EXPLANATION
We want to solve the problem by using dimensional analysis.
To do this, let us convert the speed of the Bluebirds baseball to miles per hour.
We have that:
1 feet per second = 0.6818 miles per hour
125.4 feet per second = 85.50 miles per hour
As we can see the baseball of the Bluebirds is slower than the Robins (90 miles per hour)
Now, to complete the explanation:
When I convert the Bluebirds pitcher's speed to the same units as the Robins pitcher's speed, the speed is _85.50_ mi/h.
Since the Bluebirds pitcher's speed is _less than_ the Robins pitcher's speed, the pitcher on the __Robins_ throws a faster ball.

What is vertical stretch/vertical compression ?
• A vertical stretch is derived if the constant is greater than one while the vertical compression is derived if the constant is between 0 and 1.
• Vertical stretch means that the function is taller as a result of it being stretched while vertical compress is shorter due to it being compressed and is therefore the most appropriate answer.
The y-values are multiplied by a value between 0 and 1, which causes them to travel in the direction of the x-axis. This is known as a vertical shrink and tends to flatten the graph. A point (a,b) on the graph of y=f(x) y = f (x) shifts to a point (a,kb) (a, k b) on the graph of y=kf(x) y = k f (x) in both scenarios.
The function g(x) is defined as |x|.
To vertically shrink the graph of g(x) by a factor of 1/4, divide the function by 4.
g(x) = f(x)/3
f(x) is equal to (|x|)/4.

1) What is the surface area of this Cylinder: height of 9cm and a radius of 7cm. 1) Use 3.14 and round your a 9 cm
EXPLANATION
This is a cylinder with a height of 9 cm and a radius of 7cm.
The Area of a cylinder is given by the following expression:
Area= 2xπxr ² + 2xπxrxh
As r=7cm and h=9cm, replacing terms:
Area = 2xπx(7) ² + 2xπx7x9
Multiplying numbers:
Area = 98xπ + 126xπ
Simplifying:
Area= 224xπ
Representing π as a number:
Area= 224 x 3.14= 703.36 cm^2

We can solve this system of equations using the substitution method.
From the second equation, we have x - y = -3, which implies that x = y - 3. Substitute x = y - 3 in the first equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3(y-3)+2y=6 \\ 3y-9+2y=6 \\ 5y=6+9 \\ 5y=15 \\ y=\frac{15}{5} \\ y=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we have y = 3, put in x = y - 3 to get,

How far apart, in inches, would the same two cities be on a map that has a scale of 1 inch to 40 miles?
Using scales, the distance of the two cities on the map would be of:
distance on the map = actual distance/40
What is the scale of a map?A scale on the map represents the ratio between the actual length of a segment and the length of drawn segment, hence:
Scale = actual length/drawn length
In this problem, the scale is of 1 inch to 40 miles, meaning that:
Each inch drawn on the map represents 40 miles.
Then the distance of the two cities on the map, in inches, would be given as follows:
distance on the map = actual distance/40.
If the distance was of 200 miles, for example, the distance on the map would be of 5 inches.
The problem is incomplete, hence the answer was given in terms of the actual distance of the two cities. You just have to replace the actual distance into the equation to find the distance on the map.

The average American man consumes 9.6 grams of sodium each day. Suppose that the sodium consumption of American men is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.8 grams. Suppose an American man is randomly chosen. Let X = the amount of sodium consumed. Round all numeric answers to 4 decimal places where possible. a. What is the distribution of X? X - NO b. Find the probability that this American man consumes between 9.7 and 10.6 grams of sodium per day. C. The middle 10% of American men consume between what two weights of sodium? Low: High:
The variable of interest is
X: sodium consumption of an American male.
a) This variable is known to be normally distributed and has a mean value of μ=9.6grams with a standard deviation of δ=0.8gr
Any normal distribution has a mean = μ and the variance is δ², symbolically:
X~N(μ ,δ²)
For this distribution, we have established that the mean is μ=9.6grams and the variance is the square of the standard deviation so that: δ² =(0.8gr)²=0.64gr²
Then the distribution for this variable can be symbolized as:
X~N(9.6,0.64)
b. You have to find the probability that one American man chosen at random consumes between 9.7 and 10.6gr of sodium per day, symbolically:
[tex]P(9.7\leq X\leq10.6)[/tex]The probabilities under the normal distribution are accumulated probabilities. To determine the probability inside this interval you have to subtract the accumulated probability until X≤9.7 from the probability accumulated probability until X≤10.6:
[tex]P(X\leq10.6)-P(x\leq9.7)[/tex]Now to determine these probabilities, we have to work under the standard normal distribution. This distribution is derived from the normal distribution. If you consider a random variable X with normal distribution, mean μ and variance δ², and you calculate the difference between the variable and ist means and divide the result by the standard deviation, the variable Z =(X-μ)/δ ~N(0;1) is determined.
The standard normal distribution is tabulated. Any value of any random variable X with normal distribution can be "converted" by subtracting the variable from its mean and dividing it by its standard deviation.
So to calculate each of the asked probabilities, you have to first, "transform" the value of the variable to a value of the standard normal distribution Z, then you use the standard normal tables to reach the corresponding probability.
[tex]P(X\leq10.6)=P(Z\leq\frac{10.6-9.6}{0.8})=P(Z\leq1.25)[/tex][tex]P(X\leq9.7)=P(Z\leq\frac{9.7-9.6}{0.8})P(Z\leq0.125)[/tex]So we have to find the probability between the Z-values 1.25 and 0.125
[tex]P(Z\leq1.25)-P(Z\leq0.125)[/tex]Using the table of the standard normal tables, or Z-tables, you can determine the accumulated probabilities:
[tex]P(Z\leq1.25)=0.894[/tex][tex]P(Z\leq0.125)=0.550[/tex]And calculate their difference as follows:
[tex]0.894-0.550=0.344[/tex]The probability that an American man selected at random consumes between 10.6 and 9.7 grams of sodium per day is 0.344
c. You have to determine the two sodium intake values between which the middle 10% of American men fall. If "a" and "b" represent the values we have to determine, between them you will find 10% of the distribution. The fact that is the middle 10% indicates that the distance between both values to the center of the distribution is equal, so 10% of the distribution will be between both values and the rest 90% will be equally distributed in two tails "outside" the interval [a;b]
Under the standard normal distribution, the probability accumulated until the first value "a" is 0.45, so that:
[tex]P(Z\leq a)=0.45[/tex]And the accumulated probability until "b" is 0.45+0.10=0.55, symbolically:
[tex]P(Z\leq b)=0.55[/tex]The next step is to determine the values under the standard normal distribution that accumulate 0.45 and 0.55 of probability. You have to use the Z-tables to determine both values:
The value that accumulates 0.45 of probability is Z=-0.126
To translate this value to its corresponding value of the variable of interest you have to use the standard normal formula:
[tex]a=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]You have to write this expression for X
[tex]\begin{gathered} a\cdot\sigma=X-\mu \\ (a\cdot\sigma)+\mu=X \end{gathered}[/tex]Replace the expression with a=-0.126, μ=9.6gr, and δ=0.8gr
[tex]\begin{gathered} X=(a\cdot\sigma)+\mu \\ X=(-0.126\cdot0.8)+9.6 \\ X=-0.1008+9.6 \\ X=9.499 \\ X\approx9.5gr \end{gathered}[/tex]The value of Z that accumulates 0.55 of probability is 0.126, as before, you have to translate this Z-value into a value of the variable of interest, to do so you have to use the formula of the standard normal distribution and "reverse" the standardization to reach the corresponding value of x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} b=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \\ b\cdot\sigma=X-\mu \\ (b\cdot\sigma)+\mu=X \end{gathered}[/tex]Replace the expression with b=0.126, μ=9.6gr, and δ=0.8gr and calculate the value of X:
[tex]\begin{gathered} X=(b\cdot\sigma)+\mu \\ X=(0.126\cdot0.8)+9.6 \\ X=0.1008+9.6 \\ X=9.7008 \\ X\approx9.7gr \end{gathered}[/tex]The values of sodium intake between which the middle 10% of American men fall are 9.5 and 9.7gr.

Write an equation of a line in slope-intercept form that has a slope of -3 and goes through the point (0, 3) O y = 3x - 1 O y = 3x + 2 O y = 3x O y = -3x + 3
ANSWER
y = -3x + 3
EXPLANATION
We want to write the equation in slope-intercept form, which is the form:
y = mx + c
where m = slope; c = intercept
To do that, we have to use the point-slope method:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where (x1, y1) = point the line goes through
From the question:
m = -3
(x1, y1) = (0, 3)
So, we have that:
y - 3 = -3(x - 0)
y - 3 = -3x
=> y = -3x + 3
That is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

O The functions f (x) = x + 3 and g(x) = -x + 7 intersect at x = 2. The functions f (x) = {x – 3 and g(x) = -2x + 2 intersect at x = -2.
To find the intersection point between f(x) and g(x) we will equate their right sides
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=x-5 \\ g(x)=-3x+15 \end{gathered}[/tex]Equate x - 5 by -3x + 15 to find x
[tex]x-5=-3x+15[/tex]add 3x to both sides
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+3x-5=-3x+3x+15 \\ 4x-5=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]Add 5 to both sides
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x-5+5=15+5 \\ 4x=20 \end{gathered}[/tex]Divide both sides by 4 to get x
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{20}{4} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then the first one is TRUE
For the 2nd one
f(x) = 3, and g(x) = 11 - 2x
If x = 3, then substitute x by 3 in g(x)
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(3)=11-2(3) \\ g(3)=11-6 \\ g(3)=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since f(3) = 3 because it is a constant function and g(x) = 5 at x = 3
That means they do not intersect at x = 3 because f(3), not equal g(3)
[tex]f(3)\ne g(3)[/tex]Then the second one is FALSE
For the third one
f(x) = x + 3
at x = 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(2)=2+3 \\ f(2)=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]g(x) = -x + 7
at x = 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(2)=-2+7 \\ g(2)=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since f(2) = g(2), then
f(x) intersects g(x) at x = 2
The third one is TRUE
For the fourth one
[tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-3[/tex]At x = -2
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(-2)=\frac{1}{2}(-2)-3 \\ f(-2)=-1-3 \\ f(-2)=-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]g(x) = -2x + 2
At x = -2
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(-2)=-2(-2)+2 \\ g(-2)=4+2 \\ g(-2)=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence f(-2) do not equal g(-2), then
[tex]f(-2)\ne g(-2)[/tex]f(x) does not intersect g(x) at x = -2
The fourth one is FALSE
