Answer:
(a) 7.5 seconds
(b) The horizontal distance the package travel during its descent is 1737.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The given function for the height of the object is s = -16·t² + v₀·t + s₀
The initial height of the object s₀ = 900 feet
The initial vertical velocity of the object v₀
= 0 m/s
The time it takes the package to strike the ground is found as follows;
0 = -16·t² + 0×t + 900
900 = 16·t²
t² = 900/16 = 62.25
t = √62.25 = 7.5 seconds
(b) Given that the horizontal velocity of the package is given as 158 miles/hour, we have
158 miles/hour = 231.7126 ft/s
The horizontal distance the package covers in the 7.5 second of vertical flight = 231.7126 ft/s × 7.5 s = 1737.8445 feet = 1737.8 ft to one decimal place
The horizontal distance the package travel during its descent = 1737.8 ft.
Evaluating the tangent function for the two values we obtain the following:
tan 135=tan(135+180)=tan 315=-1
next:
tan -135=tan(180-135)=tan 45=1
thus comparing the two we see that tan 135 is negative while tan -135 is positive
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y= 20x+40
y- is the cost of rental
x-number of days
20 is the slope
40-flat rate and the y-intercept is at (0,40)
Answer:
-9x^3+4x^2+5
Step-by-step explanation:
(6x^2 - 3 - 5x^3) - (4x^3 +2x^2 - 8)
distribute the minus sign
(6x^2 - 3 - 5x^3) - 4x^3 -2x^2 + 8
Combine like terms
-5x^3 -4x^3 +6x^2 - 2x^2 -3 +8
-9x^3+4x^2+5

Answer: -4 (choice B)</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
The table says that when x = 1, the output is y = -2.
So the point (1, -2) is on the parabola.
The table also says that point (3, -10) is on the parabola. We're focusing on this because x = 3 is the other endpoint.
Find the slope of the line through those two points. The slope here is the same as the average rate of change.
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-10 - (-2))/(3 - 1)
m = (-10 + 2)/(3 - 1)
m = -8/2
m = -4 is the slope, and therefore, the average rate of change from x = 1 to x = 3.
