a pendulum makes 10 complete swings per minute from point A to B to A again. the distance between the points A and B, which are at the maximum end of the swing is 50 cm. draw the graph of the horizontal distance of the pendulum from point A vs. time . the graph should have 2 cycles and the graph should strat from point A. determine an equation that models the situation

In a right triangle δabc, the length of leg ac = 5 ft and the hypotenuse ab = 13 ft. find: b the length of the angle bisector of angle ∠a.

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.

Agrid shows the positions of a subway stop and your house. the subway stop is located at (-5,2) and your house is located at (-9,9). what is the distance, to the nearest unit, between your house and the subway stop?
