kay was walking along the bridge above the river. She accidentally lost her grip on her camera when she was trying to get it out

to photograph massive bird nest in the trees. The height of the camera above the water can be modeled by the equation y= -16t^2+400, where t represents the seconds after the camera is dropped. How long will it take before Kay sees the splash from the camera hitting the water?

Answer:

It will take 5 seconds before Kay sees the splash from the camera hitting the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the given equation representing height of the camera above the water and time t is

y = -16t²+400 where h = height above the water

and t = time in seconds after the camera is dropped.

Now we can say that the moment camera hits the water height becomes zero from which we can calculate the time taken.

-16t²+ 400 = 0

16t² = 400

t² = 400/16 = 25

t = √25 = 5 seconds.

Therefore time take by the camera before hitting the water is 5 seconds.

Ket [755]

The percent error is 4.167 %

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, Mrs Franklin's speedometer said she was driving at a rate of 48 miles per hour

When checking the accuracy of her speedometer, an Automotive Specialist recorded her speed at 50 miles per hour

<em><u>The percent error is given by formula:</u></em>

Percent error is the difference between a measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%

\text{Percent error } = \frac{\text{experimental-theoretical}}{theoretical} \times 100

From given,

Experimental value = 50

Theoretical value = 48

<em><u>Substituting the values in formula, we get,</u></em>

Percent\ Error = \frac{50-48}{48} \times 100\\\\Percent\ Error = \frac{2}{48} \times 100\\\\Percent\ Error = 4.167

Thus the percent error is 4.167 %

Answer:

A.) 2x - 9x - 30 = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

hello !

to solve this system of equations, first, we substitute the equation y = 3x + 10 to the <em>y </em>variable in the equation 2x-3y = -6. Therefore, we get:

2x - 3(3x+10)=-6

now, we simplify by multiplying -3 to the variables inside the parenthesis, which, in short, is also called the distributive property. thus, we get:

2x - 9x - 30 = -6
