Pierre throws a snowball up in the

Mathematics
1 answer:
erastovalidia [21]2 years ago
3 0

Using the given function, it is found that the snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.

<h3>What is the function for the ball's height?</h3>

The height when x feet are traveled is given by:

h(x) = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.

When the height is of 20 meters, we have that h(x) = 20, hence:

20 = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.

0.5x² - 6x + 16 = 0

x² - 12x + 32 = 0

(x - 8)(x - 4) = 0

For the first time: x - 4 = 0 -> x = 4.

The snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.

a square pyramid has a height of 14 cm and a base side length of 7 cm. What is the volume of the pyramid. Show work
Brut [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid or cone is:

V = ⅓ Ah

where A is the area of the base and h is the height.

The pyramid has a square base, so:

A = s²

A = (7 cm)²

A = 49 cm²

The height is 14 cm, so the volume is:

V = ⅓ (49 cm²) (14 cm)

V = 686/3 cm³

V ≈ 228.67 cm³

A line has a slope of a and has a y-intercept of (0,b). Which equation represents this line?
Papessa [141]

Step-by-step explanation:

General line equation: y = mx + c, where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

We have y = ax + b.

=> y - b = ax

=> y - b = a(x - 0).

The answer is option A.
