Hey there :)

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has 2 parallel sides

We can conclude that
AD = BC
5x + 3 = 38
Subtract 3
5x = 38 - 3
5x = 35
Divide by 5 to isolate x
$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{35}{5}$
x = 7

X=7 because the side with the equation is the same length as the side that’s 38, so you just subtract 3 from 38 and then divide 35 by 5. You get 7. So, x=7

Hope this helps:)

The equation h(t) = -16t² + 80t + 64 represented the height, in feet, of a potato t seconds after it has been launched.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Part A) The potato hit the ground at t=5.70 seconds (see the explanation)

Part B) The potato is 40 feet off the ground at the time t=5.28 seconds (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$h(t)=-16t^2+80t+64$

where

h(t) is the height of a potato in feet

t is the time in seconds

Part A) Write an equation that can be solved to find when the potato hits the ground. Then solve the equation

we know that

When the potato hit the ground, the value of h(t) must be equal to zero

so

For h(t)=0

$-16t^2+80t+64=0$

Solve the quadratic equation

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-16t^2+80t+64=0$

so

$a=-16\\b=80\\c=64$

substitute in the formula

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-16)(64)}} {2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}$

$t=\frac{-80+\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}=-0.70$

$t=\frac{-80-\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}=5.70$

therefore

The potato hit the ground at t=5.70 seconds

Part B) Write an equation that can be solved to find when the potato is 40 feet off the ground. Then solve the equation

For h(t)=40 ft

substitute in the quadratic equation

$-16t^2+80t+64=40$

$-16t^2+80t+24=0$

Solve the quadratic equation

we have

$a=-16\\b=80\\c=24$

substitute in the formula

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-16)(24)}} {2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}$

$t=\frac{-80+\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}=-0.28$

$t=\frac{-80-\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}=5.28$

therefore

The potato is 40 feet off the ground at the time t=5.28 seconds

Is 300 greater than 1/2?

seropon [69]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 is half of 1.

300 is 300 times greater than 1, so 300 is 600 times greater than 1/2.
