Answer:
- time = 1second
- maximum height = 16m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the height of a pumpkin t seconds after it is launched from a catapult modelled by the equation
f(t)=-16t²+32t... (1)
The pumpkin reaches its maximum height when the velocity is zero.
Velocity = {d(f(x)}/dt = -32t+32
Since v = 0m/s (at maximum height)
-32t+32 = 0
-32t = -32
t = -32/-32
t = 1sec
The pumpkin reaches its maximum height after 1second.
Maximum height of the pumpkin is gotten by substituting t = 1sec into equation (1)
f(1) = -16(1)²+32(1)
f(1) = -16+32
f(1) = 16m
The maximum height of the pumpkin is 16m
Answer:
1.8 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other and the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle is formed by the intersection of the two lines. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of the largest side of the triangle. The cosine rule is:
b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).
The question specifies that a=0.5, B=120°, and c=1.5. Plugging in the values:
b^2 = 0.5^2 + 1.5^2 - 2(0.5)(1.5)*cos(120°).
Simplifying gives:
b^2 = 3.25.
Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 1.8 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
This means that the length of the third side is 1.8 units!!!
Answer:
11%
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 (twix)
1/3 (snicker)
1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9
1/9 = .11
.11 = 11%
Answer:
We use the power rule of exponents to find out that both sides of the equation equal 3^20 (or 3486784401).
Step-by-step explanation:
For this example, we can just use a calculator and find out that both (3^5)^4 and (3^4)^5 are the same value. But how do we know this algebraically?
When dealing with exponents, we must have a good understanding of the properties of exponents before doing any calculations.
For this example, I recognize that the power rule of exponents is being used:
So let's apply this rule to the given equation.
(3^5)^4 = (3^4)^5
3^(5*4) = 3^(4*5)
3^20 = 3^20
Now we know both sides of the equation equal 3^20 (or 3486784401).
