A sinusoidal equation can be used to describe the height because the height depends on a periodic motion, and the equation can be written as:

h(t) = 13ft*sin(pi*t) + 24ft

<h3>Why a sinusoidal equation can be used?</h3>

Remember that the sine function has a periodicity, such that:

sin(x + 2pi) = sin(x).

So, for a circle where if you do a complete rotation you end in the initial place, so there can be a relation between the height and a sinusoidal equation.

Notice that the initial position is 24ft above the ground, so we can write this, at the moment, as:

h(x) = Asin(n*t) + 24ft

A is the amplitude, it defines the maximum height and minimum height, both depend on the radius (the maximum height is 24ft plus the radius, the minimum height is 24ft minus the radius) then we write:

h(t) = 13ft*sin(kt) + 24ft

k depends on how much time takes to do a full rotation. We know that the sine function does a "complete cycle" in 2pi, while the wheel does a full rotation in 2 seconds, then we have that:

k*2 = 2pi

k = (2pi)/2s = pi

Then the sinusoidal equation that represents the height is:

h(t) = 13ft*sin(pi*t) + 24ft

Use the ordinary division of polynomials to find the quotient and remainder when the first polynomial is divided by the second.
Vanyuwa [196]

The quotient and remainder when the first polynomial is divided by the second are -4w^2 - 7w - 21 and -71 respectively

<h3>How to determine the quotient and remainder when the first polynomial is divided by the second?</h3>

The polynomials are given as:

-4w^3 + 5w^2 - 8, w - 3

Set the divisor to 0.

So, we have

w - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides

w = 3

Substitute w = 3 in -4w^3 + 5w^2 - 8 to determine the remainder

-4(3)^3 + 5(3)^2 - 8

Evaluate the expression

-71

This means that the remainder when -4w^3 + 5w^2 - 8 is divided by w - 3 is -71

The quotient (Q) is calculated as follows:

Q = [-4w^3 + 5w^2 - 8]/[w - 3]

The numerator can be expressed as follows:

Numerator = -4w^3 + 5w^2 - 8

Subtract the remainder.

So, we have:

Numerator = -4w^3 + 5w^2 - 8 + 71

This gives

Numerator = -4w^3 + 5w^2 + 61

So, the quotient becomes

Q = [-4w^3 + 5w^2 + 61]/[w - 3]

Expand

Q = [(w - 3)(-4w^2 - 7w - 21)]/[w - 3]

Evaluate

Q = -4w^2 - 7w - 21

Hence, the quotient and remainder when the first polynomial is divided by the second are -4w^2 - 7w - 21 and -71 respectively

PLZ ONLY TYPE IN SSS , ASA, SAS, AAS, HL) IF<br> the triangles are not congruent, type in NEI
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the first picture shows that two sides are the same and one angle so you know it's a SAS,    the one tick mark and that the two trialge share one common side is how you know 2 sides are the same,  and the 90 °  corner symbol shows you know an angle in each , that is also the same.

the second picture shows 3 sides the same  so SSS,  the triangles share one side, and have the tick marks, showing that each of the respective sides are the same.

If you have 80 employees and you grew 116%, what was the amount of original employees?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original employee be x , this means that

116% of x = 80

\frac{116x}{100} = 80

116x = 8000

divide through by 116

x = 8000/116

x = 68.96551724

Since we are dealing with employees , therefore x ≈ 69

This means that there were 69 employees originally
