The height that a ball reaches at a certain time t is given by the equation,
h = 2 - 15t + 5t²
We are asked to compute for the values of t that would allow the ball to reach a height of 7 meters.
Substitute the 7 to the equation,
7 = 2 - 15t + 5t²
Transposing,
5t² - 15t - 7 + 2 = 0
Simplifying,
5t² - 15t - 5 = 0
Divide the equation by 5,
t² - 3t - 1 = 0
The values of t can be calculated through the quadratic formula,
t = (-b +/- sqrt(b² - 4ac))/2a
Substituting,
t = (3 +/-sqrt (9 - 4(-1)) / 2(1)
t = 3.3 or t = -0.30
Since, we cannot have t as a negative number hence, our final answer is:
<em> t = 3.3 s</em>
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
24 divided by 3 is 8 so 1 stick of butter makes 8 cookies so 2 sticks of butter make 16 cookies(2 x 8)
Answer:
To find out the first three terms of 3n - 2 substitute 1 ,2 and 3 into the equation.
so the three terms a
3(1)-2=1
3(2)-2=6-2=4
3(3)-2=9-2=7
As you can see the sequence goes up in 1,4 and 7.To find out the 10th term you also substitute 10 into the equation so 3(9)-2=18-2=16
so 16 is the tenth term
Hope this helped!
The answer would be x^4 -16
Explanation: use the FOIL method.
(x^2 +4)(x^2 -4)= x^4 +4x -4x -16. 4x and -4x cancel each other out. You are left with x^4 -16.
