The height of an object after it is released can be modeled by the function f (x) = negative 16 t squared v t s, where t is the

number of seconds after the object is released, v is the upward speed in feet per second at release, and s is the starting height in feet. if a quarterback throws a ball from his hand 6 feet in the air at an upward speed of 25 feet per second, how much time does his teammate have to catch the ball?

The amount of time his teammate have to catch the ball is equal to 1.774 seconds.

<u>Given the following function:</u>

  • f(x) = -16t² + vt + s.
  • Displacement, s = 6ft.
  • Velocity, v = 25 ft/s.

<h3>How to calculate the amount of time?</h3>

In order to determine the amount of time his teammate have to catch the ball, we would evaluate the given position-time function as follows:

f(t) = -16t² + 25t + 6.

In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c =0

Where:

a = -16.

b = 25.

c = 6.

Solving the function by using the quadratic formula, we have:

t = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

t = [-25 ± √[(25² - 4(-16)(6))]/2(-16)

t = [25/32 ± (-1/32)√1009]

t = 25/32 ± (-0.993)

t = 0.781 ± 0.993

t = 0.781 + 0.993

Time, t = 1.774 seconds.

Note: We ignored the negative value because time cannot be negative.

Answer:

  25 = c

Step-by-step explanation:

You had a good start on filling in the values in the Pythagorean Theorem. The work needed to be finished.

  a^2 +b^2 = c^2\\\\20^2 +15^2=c^2\\\\400+225=c^2\\\\625=c^2\\\\\sqrt{625}=\sqrt{c^2}\\\\\boxed{25=c}

The price of an item yesterday was $135 . Today, the price rose to $216 . Find the percentage increase.
Softa [21]

Answer:

60% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Work out the difference increase between the two numbers you are comparing.Then you increase the new number by the original number. Next you divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. Finally divide the increase number and the original number then multiply by 100. That will give you your answer.

In our base-10 number system, moving a digit one place to the left multiplies its value by 10. Moving it one place to the right multiplies its value by 1/10.

You know already that 1,000 has 10 times the value of 100, and 1/10 the value of 10,000.
