An object launched vertically from a point that is 37.5 feet above ground level with an initial velocity of 48.6 feet per second

can be represented by the equation h=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5, where h is the height of the object and t is the time after the object is launched. How long does it take the object to hit the ground?

Answer: 3.675 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, when the object hits the ground, h=0:

h=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5

0=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5

We have to apply the quadratic formula:  

For: ax2+ bx + c  

x =[ -b ± √b²-4ac] /2a  

Replacing with the values given:  

a=-16 ; b=48.6; c=37.5

x =[ -(48.6) ± √(-48.6)²-4(-16)37.5] /2(-16)  

x = [ -48.6 ± √ 4,761.96] /-32

x = [ -48.6 ± 69] /-32

Positive:  

x = [ -48.6 + 69] /-32 = -0.6375

Negative:  

x = [ -48.6 - 69] /-32 = 3.675 seconds (seconds can't be negative)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Rudiy27

Answer:   \bold{D.\ \dfrac{x+4}{x}\ where\ x \neq 0, \dfrac{2}{3}}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 3x² + 10x - 8

g(x) = 3x² - 2x


\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\dfrac{3x^2+10x-8}{3x^2-2x}=\dfrac{(3x-2)(x+4)}{x(3x-2)}=\dfrac{x+4}{x}

Restriction on x: the denominator cannot be equal to zero. So,

    x(3x - 2) ≠ 0  

→  x ≠ 0     and     3x - 2 ≠ 0

                             3x       ≠ 2

                               x       \neq \dfrac{2}{3}

Si el lado de un cuadrado mide 10cm cuanto mide él área del círculo que se encuentra adentro de ese cuadrado
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

El área del círculo que se encuentra en el cuadrado es de 78.5cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Para resolver este ejercicio tenemos que pensar que un cuadrado tiene sus 4 lados iguales, por lo que todos sus lados medirán 10cm.

Ahora nos fijamos que necesitamos saber para calcular el área de un circulo

a = área

r = radio

π = 3.14

a = π * r²

como podemos ver no sabemos el valor del radio

como el circulo toca con los 4 lados del cuadrado sabemos que su radio sera la distancia del centro del cuadrado a cualquiera de los lados.

Entonces tenemos que dividir un lado por 2

10cm/2 = 5cm

El radio del circulo sera 5cm

Ahora que tenemos todos los datos podemos calcular el valor del área

a = 3.14 * (5cm)²

a = 3.14 * 25cm²

a = 78.5cm²

El área del círculo que se encuentra en el cuadrado es de 78.5cm²

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

y=-2.95836 x +234.56159

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 50, 55, 50, 79, 44, 37, 70, 45, 49

y: 152, 48, 22, 35, 43, 171, 13, 185, 25

a) Compute the equation of the least-squares regression line. (Round your numerical values to five decimal places.)For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}

Where:

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}

So we can find the sums like this:

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i =50+ 55+ 50+ 79+ 44+ 37+ 70+ 45+ 49=479

\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =152+ 48+ 22+ 35+ 43+ 171+ 13+ 185+ 25=694

\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =50^2 + 55^2 + 50^2 + 79^2 + 44^2 + 37^2 + 70^2 + 45^2 + 49^2=26897

\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =152^2 + 48^2 + 22^2 + 35^2 + 43^2 + 171^2 + 13^2 + 185^2 + 25^2=93226

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =50*152+ 55*48+ 50*22+ 79*35+ 44*43+ 37*171+ 70*13+ 45*185+ 49*25=32784

With these we can find the sums:

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=26897-\frac{479^2}{9}=1403.556

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=32784-\frac{479*694}{9}=-4152.22

And the slope would be:

m=-\frac{-4152.222}{1403.556}=-2.95836

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{479}{9}=53.222

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{694}{9}=77.111

And we can find the intercept using this:

b=\bar y -m \bar x=77.1111111-(-2.95836*53.22222222)=234.56159

So the line would be given by:

y=-2.95836 x +234.56159
