Answer:

Horizontal component = 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the horizontal component is given by the cosine projection;

$v_x=|v_0| * cos(\theta)$

which in our case (using the fact that in each degree of angle one has 60 minutes of angle, and therefore 30 minutes of angles is the same as 0.5 degrees) becomes:

$v_x=12.6 * cos(40.5^o)=9.5811$

And rounding to the nearest tenth as requested, we have:

$v_x=9.6$

joja [24]

The data has been properly arranged in tabular form and is shown below in the image.

First we need to find the mean and median of scores of both students.

1) For Amo:
Mean = $\frac{97+92+89+55+90}{5}=84.6$
Median = Middle Value when data is arranged in ascending order = 90

2) For Javier:
Mean = $\frac{68+97+65+92+95}{5}=83.4$
Median = Middle Value when data is arranged in ascending order = 92

For both the students, value of Median is larger then the mean. So in order to give the best possible grade Mr. Malloy should use the median score for both students.

A 12,000-lb killer whale might eat as much as 14,000 lb of fish per month (assume a 30-day month). If the average weight of a ce

Answer:

2196 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of fish that the killer whale might eat in a month (30 days) = 14,000 lb

Weight of the fish that killer whale might eat in a day = $\frac{14000}{30} = \frac{1400}{3}$ lb.

Average weight of the fish that killer whale eats = 3.4 oz

Since,

1 pound(lb) = 16 ounces(oz)

So,

Weight of the fish that killer whale might eat in a day in ounces(oz) = $\frac{1400}{3} \times 16=\frac{22400}{3}$ oz

Since, a certain fish weighs 3.4 oz, in order to find the number of fish that killer whale must eat, we must divide the total weight in ounces by 3.4 ounces.

So, the number of fish that killer whale would eat = $\frac{22400}{3} \div 3.4 = 2196$ fish
