Based on the equation of the function of the height of the building, it takes the man 44.7 seconds to fall from the top

<h3>How to determine how long it takes the math man to fall?</h3>

The function of the height where the man falls is a quadratic function, and the equation of the function is given as:

d = t^2 * 0.25

The height of the building is 500

This means that the value of d is 500.

So, we have;

d = 500

Substitute 500 for d in the equation d = t^2 * 0.25

500 = t^2 * 0.25

Divide both sides of the above equation by 0.25

500/0.25 = t^2 * 0.25/0.25

Evaluate the quotient in the above equation

t^2 = 2000

Take the square root of both sides in the above equation

√t^2 = √2000

Evaluate the exponent

t = 44.7

Hence, it takes the man 44.7 seconds to fall

The price of a cellular telephone plan is based on peak and nonpeak service. Kelsey used 45 peak minutes and 50 nonpeak minutes
Oxana [17]
We can build a system of two linear equations with two unknowns with the info provided in the problem, one with Kelsey info and one with Mitch info like so:
Lets call p the amount on peak minutes and n the amount of non-peak minutes:
45p + 50n = 27.75
70p + 30n = 36
lets reduce the equations dividing the first by 5:
9p + 10n = 5.55
<span>70p + 30n = 36
</span>now, to eliminate n, lets multiply the first equation by -3 and add the two equations:
-27p - 30n = -16.65
<span>70p + 30n = 36
</span>----------------------------
43p + 0 = 19.35
p = 19.35<span>/43
p = 0.45
therefore the peak rate is $0.45 per minute
lets substitute in one of the original equations this result:
</span><span>45p + 50n = 27.75
</span>45(0.45) + 50n = 27.75
20.25 <span>+ 50n = 27.75
50n = 27.75 - 20.25
50n = 7.5
n = 7.5/50
n = 0.15
therefore the non-peak rate per minute is $0.15</span>
