The objective is to explain Pythagorean Theorem with two examples by applying it to sports.
Explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem states that. in a right triangle the sum of the squares of a two perpendicular legs will be equal to the square of the largest side of the triangle.
Consider a right triangle ∆ABC right angled at B.
By applying the Pythagorean Theorem to the above right triangle,

We are asked to determine the probability of landing on an odd number and then landing on a 6.
To do that we will use the product rule of probabilities:
[tex]P(AandB)=P(A)P(B)[/tex]Where:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\text{ landing on an odd number} \\ B=\text{ landing on a 6} \end{gathered}[/tex]To determine the value of the probability of A we need to have into account that there is only 1 odd number (7) out of 3 possible numbers, therefore, the probability is:
[tex]P(A)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]Now, to determine the value of the probability of "B" we need to have into account that there is only one number 6 out of 3 numbers therefore, we have:
[tex]P(B)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]Now, we substitute the values:
[tex]P(AandB)=(\frac{1}{3})(\frac{1}{3})[/tex]Now, we solve the operations:
[tex]P(AandB)=\frac{1}{9}[/tex]Therefore, the probability is 1/9

SAS Similarity Theorem
If two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the triangles are similar by the SAS theorem.
We need to check if the conditions are met in the triangles given in the question.
First, let's test the proportionality of the sides.
In triangle ABC, side AB has a measure of 9 units
In triangle DEF, side DE has a measure of 6 units.
The proportion is 9/6 = 1.5. This is the scale factor.
Now check the other given sides.
In triangle ABC, side CA has a measure of 6 units
In triangle DEF, side FD has a measure of 4 units.
Proportion is 6/4 = 1.5
Given the scale factor is identical for both triangles, the first condition is met.
Now we can see the included angles BAC and EDF are congruent because they have the same measure of 40°.
Since both conditions are met, we conclude the triangles are similar by the SAS theorem

A ball is thrown upward and outward from a height of 6 feet. The height of the ball, f(x), in feet, can be modeled byf(x)=−0.6x2+2.7x+6where x is the ball's horizontal distance, in feet, from where it was thrown. Use this model to solve parts (a) through (c).a. What is the maximum height of the ball and how far from where it was thrown does this occur?The maximum height is 1010 feet, which occurs 22 feet from the point of release.
We need to find the vertex of the parabola
Vertex (h,k) is given by the following formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (h,k) \\ h=-\frac{b}{2a} \\ k=f(h) \end{gathered}[/tex]Where, a and b are coefficients of the quadratic equation
[tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]in this example:
[tex]f(x)=-0.6x^2+2.7x+6[/tex]Therefore,
a = 0.6
b = 2.7
Now, we know that, we can find vertex (h,k)
[tex]h=-\frac{2.7}{2\cdot(-0.6)}=2.25[/tex]now, let's determine k
[tex]\begin{gathered} k=f(h)=f(2.25)=-0.6\cdot(2.25)^2+2.7\cdot(2.25)+6 \\ k=9.0375 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the vertex of the parabola is the point (2.25 , 9.0375)
This means that the maximum height of the ball is k = 9.0375 ft and it occurs h = 2.25 ft from where it was thrown

To solve this, we can use the remainder theorem.
The theorem says:
Given a polynomial P(x), the remainder of

2. The average high temperatures in degrees for a city are listed.
58, 61, 71, 77, 91, 100, 105, 102, 95, 82, 66, 57
If a value of 48° is added to the data, how does the median change?
3. The average high temperatures in degrees for a city are listed.
58, 61, 71, 77, 91, 100, 105, 102, 95, 82, 66, 57
If a value of 80.8° is added to the data, how does the range change?
If a value of 98° is added to the data, then the mean change is 1.35, if a value of 48° is added to the data, then the median change from the 6th number to the 7th number but the value still same, if a value of 80.8° is added to the data then the range still same.
In the given question we have to find the change in mean, median and range after the addition of another value.
(1) The list of average high temperatures in degrees for a city is
58, 61, 71, 77, 91, 100, 105, 102, 95, 82, 66, 57
So the mean is find as the sum of value divided by the total number of values.
As we see that the total number of values are 12.
Now the sum of values
∑x=58+61+71+77+91+100+105+102+95+82+66+57
∑x=965
Mean = ∑x/n
Mean = 965/12
Mean = 80.42
If a value of 98° is added to the data, then the sum of values will be
∑x'=58+61+71+77+91+100+105+102+95+82+66+57+98
∑x'=1063
The total number of values = 13
So the
Mean'=∑x'/n'
Mean'=1063/13
Mean'=81.77
Now the change in mean=Mean'−Mean
change in mean=81.77−80.42
change in mean=1.35
(2) The list of average high temperatures in degrees for a city is
58, 61, 71, 77, 91, 100, 105, 102, 95, 82, 66, 57
So the median is find after arranging the values in ascending order.
57, 58, 61, 66, 71, 77, 82, 91, 95, 100, 102, 105
Total number=12
Meadian=n/2 th number
Meadian=12/2 th number
Meadian=6 th number
Meadian= 77
If a value of 48° is added to the data.
So the ascending order of the number is
48, 57, 58, 61, 66, 71, 77, 82, 91, 95, 100, 102, 105
Total number=13
Meadian=(n+1)/2 th number
Meadian=13+1/2 th number
Meadian=14/2 th number
Meadian=7 th number
Meadian=77
Now the range changes from the 6th number to the 7th number but the value still same.
(3) The list of average high temperatures in degrees for a city is
58, 61, 71, 77, 91, 100, 105, 102, 95, 82, 66, 57
So the range is find after subtracting the greatest number to the smallest number.
So the range=Greatest Number−Largest Number
range=105−57
range=48
If a value of 80.8° is added to the data then the range still same because the added value is between the largest and smallest number.

At a bowling alley, the cost of shoe rental is $2.55 and the cost per game is $3.75. If f (n) represents the total cost of shoe rental and n games, what is the recursive equation for f (n)? f (n) = (2.55 + 3.75)n, n > 0 f (n) = 2.55 + 3.75n, n > 0 f (n) = 2.55 + 3.75 + f (n − 1), f (0) = 2.55 f (n) = 3.75 + f (n − 1), f (0) = 2.55
To find the recursive function we need to take into account that shoe rental doesn't depend on the number of games you play. You rent a pair of shoes and you pay for it just once, but the cost per game does depend on the number of games (n), then the total cost of shoe rental and n games will be:

This means that, on average, the player gets 25 hits in 100 times at-bat.
Therefore:
The number of hits which he would expect to get in 360 times at-bat

Given:
The number of tablespoon is T.
The number of teaspoon is X.
The objective is to write formula and make a graph for the statement, Number of tablespoons T = the number of teaspoons X divided by 3.
Explanation:
The equation can be written as,
[tex]T=\frac{X}{3}[/tex]To plot the graph:
Consider 3 values of X -3, 0, 3.
Substitute the values of X in the obtained equation to find the value of T.
At X = -3,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=\frac{-3}{3} \\ T=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the coordinate is (-3,-1).
At X = 0,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=\frac{0}{3} \\ T=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the coordinate is (0,0).
At X = 3,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=\frac{3}{3} \\ T=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the coordinate is (3,1).
On plotting the coordinates in the graph,
Hence, the required equation is T = (X/3) and the graph of the equation is obtained.
A bag contains:• 3 red marbles• 2 orange marbles• 1 yellow marble• 4 green marblesRico will randomly choose a marble. Then he will put itback and randomly choose another marble. What isthe probability that he will choose a red and then anorange marble?
The probability is given by the following formula:
Probability = number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes
The total number of outcomes is 10, 3 of the initial number of marbles are red and 2 of them are orange.
The probability of getting a red marble in the first draw is:
Probability = 3/10
The probability of getting an orange marble in the second draw is:
Probability = 2/10 = 1/5
the probability that he will choose a red and then an orange marble can be calculated by multiplying the probabilities that we found, then we get:
Probability = 3/10 × 1/5 = 3/150 = 1/50
Then, the answer is 1/50
