It represents the value of the expression when the variable (t) is zero.

_____

If this is supposed to be an expression for ballistic motion, the constant could represent the initial height of the object in feet. There is nothing in your problem statement indication what this expression is suppose to represent. It could be pennies of profit for selling t trinkets, for all we know—where the constant term represents some initial balance you have before you sell any.

It can represent many things depending on what context the expression is used in. Most commonly, the constant term represents the y-intercept of the expression when it is graphed e.g. the graph of y = -16t² - 8t + 24 has a y-intercept of 24.

It can also represent the initial value if the expression is used in a word problem context

Use the Law of Sines to find the measure of angle J to the nearest degree.
rjkz [21]
\bf \textit{Law of sines}
\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{sin(\measuredangle A)}{a}=\cfrac{sin(\measuredangle B)}{b}=\cfrac{sin(\measuredangle C)}{c}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{sin(J)}{9.1}=\cfrac{sin(97^o)}{11}\implies sin(J)=\cfrac{9.1\cdot sin(97^o)}{11}
\\\\\\
\textit{now taking }sin^{-1}\textit{ to both sides}
\\\\\\
sin^{-1}\left[ sin(J) \right]=sin^{-1}\left( \cfrac{9.1\cdot sin(97^o)}{11} \right)
\\\\\\
\measuredangle J=sin^{-1}\left( \cfrac{9.1\cdot sin(97^o)}{11} \right)

How many radians does the minute hand of a clock rotate through over half an hour? How many degrees?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

So minute hand will rotate \pi radian in half an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In one hour minute hand of clock rotate about 360°

So in half an hour minute hand clock rotate \frac{360}{2}=180^{\circ}

We have to find how many minute hand rotate in radian

For conversion of degree to radian we have to multiply with \frac{\pi }{180}

So 180^{\circ}=180\times \frac{\pi}{180 }=\pi radian

So minute hand will rotate \pi radian in half an hour

1-1/2=2(y+4) what is the answer
Digiron [165]

Answer:

y = -3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 0.5 = 2(y+4)

0.5 = 2(y+4)

0.5 = 2(0.25)

0.25 - 4  = -3.75 = y
