The height in feet of the missile after 5 seconds in the air is; 875 ft

<h3>How to find the height of a Projectile?</h3>

We are given the quadratic function of the height in terms of time, x, in seconds as; h(x) = - 17x² + 260x

where;

h(x) is height after x seconds

x seconds is time of missile in air when thrown.

Thus, after five seconds, we have;

h(5) = - 17(5)² + 260(5)

h(5) = -425 + 1300

h(5) = 875 feet

Complete question is;

A missile is launched from the ground. Its height, h(x), can be represented by a quadratic function in terms of time, x, in seconds.

After 1 second, the missile is 243 feet in the air; after 2 seconds, it is 452 feet in the air.

The height of the can be represented by this function:

h(x) = - 17x² + 260x

Find the height, in feet, of the missile after 5 seconds in the air.

If y varies inversely as x and y=16 when x=4, find y when x=3

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

21.33 to nearest hundredth

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse Variation is y = k / x where k is a constant.

Plug in the given values to find k:-

16 = k/4

k = 4*16 = 64 so the equation of variation is y = 64/x.

So when x = 3, y = 64/3 = = 21.33 to nearest hundredth.

A trapezoid is broken into 2 triangles and 1 rectangle. The triangles both have a base of 2 meters and a height of 5 meters. The

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Part 1) The trapezoid has an area of $20\ m^2$

Part 2) The kite has an area of $21\ m^2$

Part 3) The area of the trapezoid is less than the area of the kite

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

Find the area of trapezoid

we know that

The area of trapezoid is equal to the area of two congruent triangles plus the area of a rectangle

$A=2[\frac{1}{2} (2)(5)]+(2)(5)$

$A=10+10=20\ m^2$

Part 2

Find the area of the kite

we know that

The area of the kite is equal to the area of two congruent triangles

$A=2[\frac{1}{2} (7)(3)]=21\ m^2$

Part 3

Compare the areas

The trapezoid has an area of $20\ m^2$

The kite has an area of $21\ m^2$

$20\ m^2< 21\ m^2$

therefore

The area of the trapezoid is less than the area of the kite
