The standard height from the floor to the bull's-eye at which a standard dartboard is hung is 5 feet 8 inches. A standard dartboard is 18 inches in diameter.

Suppose a standard dartboard is hung at standard height so that the bull's-eye is 12 feet from a wall to its left.

Brian throws a dart at the dartboard that lands at a point 11.5 feet from the left wall and 5 feet above the floor.

Does Brian's dart land on the dartboard?

The Standard Height From The Floor To The Bull's-eye At Which A Standard Dartboard Is Hung Is 5 Feet

Answers

Answer 1

The equation of the circle that represents the dartboard is (x - 12)² + (y - 17/3)² = 9/16, where the origin is the lower left corner of the room and the unit of the radius is feet.  

The position of Brian's dart is represented by the coordinates (11.5, 5). Brian's dart does land on the dartboard.

What is the equation of a circle?

Mathematically, the standard form of the equation of a circle is represented by this mathematical expression;

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where:

h and k represents the coordinates at the center.r represents the radius of a circle.

From the question, we have the following information:

The height of this standard dartboard, k = 5 feet, 8 inches.

The diameter of this standard dartboard = 18 inches.

The bull's eye, h = 12 feet.

Next, we would convert the all of the units in inches to feet as follows:

Height, k = 5 + 8/12

Height, k = 5 + 2/3

Height, k = 17/3 feet.

For the diameter, we have:

Diameter = 18/12

Diameter = 3/2 feet.

Also, we would determine the radius as follows:

Radius, r = diameter/2

Radius, r = (3/2)/2

Radius, r = 3/4 feet.

Substituting the parameters into the standard equation, we have;

(x - 12)² + (y - 17/3)² = (3/4)²

(x - 12)² + (y - 17/3)² = 9/16

Next, we would determine whether Brian's dart land on the dartboard:

(x - 12)² + (y - 17/3)² < 9/16

(x - 12)² + (y - 17/3)² < 9/16

(11.5 - 12)² + (5.5 - 5.67)² < 0.5625

0.25 + 0.0289 < 0.5625

0.2789 < 0.5625 (Yes, it does land because it's within the circumference of this standard dartboard).

For a better understanding, we first multiply the inequality by -1. Recall by doing so, the sign must be flipped:

[tex]x^2-16\ge0[/tex]

Factor the binomial:

[tex](x-4)(x+4)\ge0[/tex]

We have a product of two variable expressions and it must be positive or zero. That can only be possible if:

* Both factors are positive or zero

* Both factors are negative or zero

The answer can come from any of the conditions stated above, so the solution is the OR combination of the individual solutions.

The first condition states:

x - 4 ≥ 0 AND x + 4 ≥ 0

This leads to the solution:

x ≥ 4 AND x ≥ -4

If x must be greater or equal to 4 and greater or equal to -4, then the AND combination gives the solution: x ≥ 4

The second condition states:

x - 4 ≤ 0 AND x + 4 ≤ 0

This leads to:

x ≤ 4 AND x ≤ -4

The AND combination gives the second solution x ≤ -4

The final solution is the first solution OR the second solution, that is:

x ≤ -4 or x ≥ 4

An indifference curve is a graph that illustrates numerous pairings of two goods or commodities that leave the customer equally well off or satisfied—hence indifferent—when it comes to owning any pairing of the two items that is represented along the curve.

A consumer must give up more of one good in order to buy more of another, hence an indifference curve will always have a negative slope.

x + 2 = 12
x + 1 = 12
x + 1 = 24

Answers

The equation used to find the 3 consecutive even integers with a sum of 72 is x + 2 = 24.

What is defined as the even integers?An even integer is one that is divisible by two, i.e. a multiple of two.For eg:- 2,4,6,... and −2,−4,−6,.... are divided by twoAs a result, the integers 2,4,6,... and −2,−4,−6,.... are all even integersThus, the integer of a form 2k is a even integer, in which k is an integer.

For the given data in question.

Let the first even integer be 'x'.

Second even integer will be 'x + 2'.

Thirst even integer will be 'x + 4'.

The sum is 72

x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 72

Simplifying;

3x + 6 = 72

Divide whole equation by 3.

x + 2 = 24

Thus, the equation used to find the 3 consecutive even integers with a sum of 72 is x + 2 = 24.

The volume of the silo with given height and diameter is 4374π ft or 13734.36 ft. (approximately).

What is volume?

Volume is a measurement of 3-D space that is occupied. Numerous imperial units or SI-derived units, such as the cubic meter and liter, are frequently used to quantify it numerically (such as the gallon, quart, cubic inch). Volume and length (cubed) have a symbiotic relationship. The volume of a container is typically thought of as its capacity, not as the amount of space it takes up.

Given in the question,

The diameter of the cylindrical silo is 18 ft,

and its height is 54 ft.

Volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula:

[tex]V = \pi r^2 h[/tex]

Here, V = volume, r = radius, h = height,

We know that, radius is half of diameter. So, radius = 18/2 = 9 ft

Putting the given value in the formula:

[tex]V = \pi 9^2 \times 54[/tex]

[tex]V = \pi \times 81 \times 54[/tex]

V = 4374π ft.

Putting the value of π as 3.14 (approximately)

So, volume of the silo becomes 13734.36 ft.

Determine whether the point (4,2) is in the solution set of the system of inequalities below. 4x + y < 2, y > -2

Answers

The point (4,2) is not in the solution set as it do not satisfy the first inequality 4x+y<2.

To be in the solution set of the system of inequalities the point (4.2) must satisfy both the given linear inequalities.

So, 4x + y < 2

when x = 4, y = 2

4(4) + 2 = 18 which is not less than 2

So, point do not satisfies this linear inequality

The value of height (h) will be 1.35 inches.

What is Surface area?

The space occupied by a plat surface is called Surface area.

Given that;

Surface area (S) = 2πr² + 2πrh

Where, r is the base radius and h is the height.

Now, When Surface area = 175 square inches

Radius (r) = 6 inches.

Then, We can calculate height as;

Since,

Surface area (S) = 2πr² + 2πrh

175 = 2 × 3.14 × (6)² + 2 × 3.14 × 6 h

175 = 226.08 + 37.68h

175 - 226.08 = 37.68 h

- 51.08 = 37.68 h

h = - 51.08 / 37.68

h = - 1.35

Answers

Critical points are the points where the slope of the function is zero thus at θ = 0,π/22,π11,3π/22 ... will be the critical points of function g(θ) = sin²(11θ).

What is the slope?

A slope is a tangent or angle at a point and a slope is the intensity of inclination of any geometrical lines.

Slope = Tanx where x will be the angle from the positive x-axis at that point.

As per the given function,g(θ) = sin²(11θ).

The critical points are the points where the slope of the tangent of the function is zero.

The slope of the tangent of a function is the first derivative thus,

g'(θ) = 0 ⇒ 2× 11 sin(11θ)cos(11θ) = 0

Sin(11θ) = 0 ⇒ θ = 0

Cos(11θ) = 0 ⇒ 11θ = π/2

θ = π/22

Since, sinusoidal functions are repeating thus,

Next critical point = π/22 + π/22 = π/11 and so on.

In the diagram, the radius of the circle is 4 mm. Let's replace the "r" in the formula with 4 mm and "π" with 3.14
