The height if a basketball thrown by a 6 foot tall man follows a path defined by the function h(x) = -0.5x^2+3x+6, where x is the horizontal distance from where it is thrown. How far away from the basket should the player stand in order for the ball to go in the basket ( 10 feet high ) on its way down?

the correct answer is semicircle

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is semicircle because the shorter arc joining two points on the circumference of a circle is known as the minor arc, the larger arc is called the major arc, and a semicircle is a half circle, formed by cutting a whole circle along a diameter line.

answer: ratio of volume of cone (with 3 times the height and equal diameter) to volume of cylinder is 2 to 1. the value of π is not used.

step-by-step explanation:

radius is diameter/2 = 4.

area of circle is π r^2.

volume of cylinder is height × area of base = hπr^2 = 3(4^2) π = 48π cubic inches.

not knowing the formula for volume of cone, i calculate it using calculus (which is for calculating things).

volume of cone is integral 0 to h area(y) dy. area(y) is π r(y)^2. r(y) runs r to zero as y runs zero to h, r(0) = r, r(h) = 0.

r(y) = r - r/h y

area(y) = π (r - r/h y)^2 = π (r^2 - 2r^2y/h + r^2y^2/h^2) = π r^2(1-2y/h+y^2/h^2)

antiderivative area(y) = π r^2 (y-y^2/h+y^3/(3h^2))

integral 0 to h = π r^2(h-h^2/h+h^3/(3h^2) - (0)) = π r^2(h - h + h/3) = π r^2(h/3) = π/3 r^2 h

volume of this cone is π/3(4^2)18 cubic inches.

= 6 16 π = 96π cubic inches.

cone has twice the volume, 96/48.

cone height is 6 times the cylinder.

ratio of volume formula: π r^2 cancels.

cone over cylinder ratio is 6h/3 to h, 2 to 1.

find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes of the function f x = 5 x − 1 . to find the vertical asymptote, equate the denominator to zero and solve for . since the degree of the polynomial in the numerator is less than that of the denominator, the horizontal asymptote is .

step-by-step explanation:

12r - 8 - 12

you have to combine like terms. below i have bolded the like terms:

12r - 8 - 12

together it combines to:

12r - 20

hope this !
