The height is 9.875 feet from which the goalkeeper catches the ball.

The player kicks soccer from a height of 2 feet

x = 0 and y = 2

Maximum height of 20 feet after traveling 40 feet

x = 40, y = 20

So let y = a(x - 40)² + 20  ( the path of parabola)

Since x = 0 , y = 2

So, 2 = a(0 - 40)² + 20

2 = 1600a + 20

-18 = 1600a

a = - 9/800

Thus, y = -9/800(x - 40)² + 20

Since the soccer is caught by the goalkeeper 70 feet from where it was kicked

x = 70

So at this time,

y = -9/800 ( 70 - 40)² + 20

  = -9/800 × 900 + 20

  = - 81/8 + 20

  = 79/ 8

  = 9.875 feet

Therefore the height at which the goalkeeper catches the ball is 9.875 feet.

What is a simplified eCarlotta thinks that 3y + 5y3 is the same as 8y4. Which statement shows that it is NOT the same?Xpression
stira [4]

Questions:

(a) What is a simplified expression for (x + y) – (x – y)?

(b) Carlotta thinks that 3y + 5y^3 is the same as 8y^4. Which statement shows that it is NOT the same?

Answer:

(x + y) - (x - y) =2y

3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

(x + y) - (x - y)

Required

Simplify

(x + y) - (x - y)

Open brackets

(x + y) - (x - y) = x + y - x + y

Collect Like Terms

(x + y) - (x - y) = x - x+ y  + y

(x + y) - (x - y) = y  + y

(x + y) - (x - y) =2y

Solving (b):

Given

3y + 5y^3 and 8y^4

Required

Which expression shows they are not the same

The expression that shows this is:

3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4

Take for instance; y=2

Substitute 2 for y in 3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4

3*2 + 5*2^3 \ne 8*2^4

Evaluate all exponents

9 + 5*8 \ne 8*16

9 + 40 \ne 128

49 \ne 128

The above expression supports 3y + 5y^3 \ne 8y^4

Joe bought a box of laundry detergent that contains 195 scoops.
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

78 laundries

$0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If the box contains 195 scoops and at once he uses 2 1/2 you have to divide 195 by 2 1/2 and you get 78.

How much is he paying for each load? you have to find the unit rate. The box costs $19.99 he can do 78 laundries at once so you divide the money by the quantity or in other words $19.99 by 78 and get 0.2562820512820513, since we are talking about money we use only the firs two decimals, so he pays $0.25 per load of laundry.
