The motion of the ball from the time it was thrown upwards was modeled closely by the function,h(t)=-16t2+128t+144, where h(t) represents the height of the ball in feet after t seconds. After how many seconds did the ball reach the ground?
please I need help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

9 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball reaches the ground, the height, h(t), is 0. Might as well make the numbers easier to work with - since for the x-intercepts (t-intercepts), h(t) = 0, you can divide the entire equation by the greatest common factor, in this case -16, to make things better:

[tex]0=-16t^2+128t+144\\0=t^2-8t-9[/tex]

Now you can solve this any way you like, such as by using:

[tex]\frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\[/tex]

This is an easy polynomial though, and you may be able to factor it just by eyeballing it:

[tex]0=t^2-8t-9\\0=(t-9)(t+1)\\t=9,-1[/tex]

You can't have negative time, so we reject -1, leaving only 9 as the answer.

A rod 123.75 cm long is sawn into 16 equal lengths. If a wastage takes place of ¼ cm for each saw cut, what is the length of each piece?

Answers

Answer:

7.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A rod 123.75 cm long is sawn into 16 equal lengths.

The length of each rod is calculated as:

123.75cm/16 =

= 7.734375cm

If a wastage takes place of ¼ cm for each saw cut,

The length of each piece is calculated as:

7.734375cm - 1/4 cm

7.734375cm − 0.25 cm

7.484375cm

Approximately = 7.5 cm

Therefore, the length of each piece = 7.5 cm

Runelle collected river water for an experiment. She poured it into 8 jars. Each jar had the mixed number two and three fourths pints of water. What is the total amount of river water Runelle collected?

Answers

Answer: 22 pints of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Runelle collected river water and poured in eight jars such that each jar had 2³/₄ of water.

The total amount of water collected by Runelle from the river will therefore be the sum of all the water in the 8 jars and because they are the same, we can simply multiply the quantity in one jar by 8 to see the sum:

= Amount of water in one jar * 8 jars

= 2³/₄  * 8

= 11/4 * 8

= 22 pints of water

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the complete squares of the picture are 12, if we unite the other we can reach 15 squares circa

15 * 50 = 750 square units

3) Area = base x height = 12 * 9 = 108 cm^2

4) Area = (base x height)/2 = (24 * 16)/2 = 192 in^2

6) Area of the square = side ^ 2 = 12^2 = 144 cm^2

height of the triangle = 20 - 12 = 8 cm

Area of the triangle = (base x height)/2 = (12 * 8)/2 = 48 cm^2

Total area = 144 + 48 = 192 cm^2

7) radius = diameter / 2 = 20 : 2 = 10 cm

circumference = radius * 2 * pi = 20 * pi = 62.8 cm

area = radius^2 * pi = 100 * pi = 314.2 cm^2

10) √25 = 5

A ​$108,000 down payment would be? of the purchase price.

Answers

Answer: 10.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking what the percentage of the down payment is of the purchase price of the house.

For such a question, the purchase price needs to be known.

We shall therefore assume a purchase price and you can use the process to find out your percentage.

Assume the purchase price is $1,000,000.

The percentage would be:

= Down payment / Purchase price * 100%

= 108,000 / 1,000,000

= 10.8%

Jane and Tannic split the cost of buying a video game. The game costs$25, and the sales is 6% markup. How much do they each pay?

Answers

Given:

The cost of game = $25

Sales markup = 6%

To find:

How much do they each pay?

Solution:

The sales markup is 6% of the cost.

[tex]\text{Sales markup}=25\times \dfrac{6}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Sales markup}=1.5[/tex]

Now, the total cost after sales markup is:

[tex]25+1.5=26.5[/tex]

Jane and Tannic split the cost of buying a video game. It means they divide the cost in two equal parts. So, the amount paid by each one is

[tex]\dfrac{26.5}{2}=13.25[/tex]

Therefore, Jane and Tannic will pay $13.25 each .

Line q has a slope of -8/9 , Another line r has the slope of 9/8.Are line q and line r parallel or perpendicular?

Answers

Answer:

perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel => both lines have the same value of slope

perpendicular => the product of both slope values are -1

=> -8/9 x 9/8 = -1

If Line q has a slope of -8/9 , Another line r has the slope of 9/8.Then both lines are perpendicular but not parallel

What is Slope of Line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope of line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is

m=y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Two lines are parallel when the slope of two lines is same, so 1 and r are not parallel.

Two lines are said to be perpendicular when the product of two slopes is minus 1.

Line q has a slope of -8/9

Let m₁=-8/9

r has the slope of 9/8

m₂=9/8

Now let us multiply  m₁ and m₂

m₁ ×m₂

-8/9×9/8

-1

The product of slopes of q and r is -1. The lines are perpendicular.

Hence Line q and line r are perpendicular but not parallel.

If AD = 5.1cm, find the height (in cm) of the triangle.

Answers

Answer:

I. AC = 15 cm

II. h = 7.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

I. Determination of AC

AB = 9 cm

BC = 12 cm

AC =?

The length AC can be obtained by using pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

AC² = AB² + BC²

AC² = 9² + 12²

AC² = 81 + 144

AC² = 225

Take the square root of both side

AC = √225

AC = 15 cm

II. Determination of the height.

AB = 9 cm

AD = 5.1 cm

BD = h =?

The height of the triangle can be obtained by using pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

AB² = AD² + BD²

9² = 5.1² + h²

81 = 26.01 + h²

Collect like terms

h² = 81 – 26.01

h² = 54.99

Take the square root of

h = √54.99

h = 7.4 cm

what is the average rate of change from x equals negative 1 to x equals 1​

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete, so I can not give you an exact answer, but I can give you the answer for the general case.

If we have a function f(x), the average rate of change between the values:

x = a and x = b,

is given by:

[tex]r = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

So if we want to find the rate of change from:

x = -1 to x = 1

it is just:

[tex]r = \frac{f(1) - f(-1)}{1 - (-1)} = \frac{f(1) - f(-1)}{2}[/tex]

So just to show an example, if:

f(x) = 3*x^2 - 5

the average rate of change in that interval will be:

[tex]r = \frac{f(1) - f(-1)}{2} = \frac{3*1^2 - 5 - (3*(-1)^2 - 5)}{2} = \frac{-2 - (-2)}{2} = 0[/tex]
