The path of a football can be modelled by the equation, h=-10d2+120d , where h represents the height, in metres, of the football

above the ground and d represents the horizontal distance, in metres, of the football from the player. At what horizontal distance does the football land?

Answer:

12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The path of a football has been modeled by the equation:

h= -10d^2+120d

where h represents the height and d represents the horizontal distance.

When the ball lands, it means that its height is back at 0 metres. This means that we have to find horizontal distance, d, when height, h, is 0.

=> 0= -10d^2+120d

=> 10d^2 - 120d = 0

d(10d - 120) = 0

∴ d = 0 m

and

10d - 120 = 0

=> d = 120 / 10 = 12 m

There are two solutions for d when h = 0 m.

The first solution (d = 0 m) is a case where the ball has not been thrown at all. This means the ball has not moved away from the football player and it is still on the ground.

The second solution is the answer to our problem (d = 12 m). The ball lands at a horizontal distance of 12 m

ELEN [110]

Answer: 32

Step-by-step explanation: 6 to the power of 2 is 36 plus 12 because 4 times 3 is 12 and minus 16

so 36+12-16= 32

Please help me with the following questions. Thanks in advance!!
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Eight

590 = 1800 e^(-0.4t)     Divide by 1800

0.32778 = e^(-0.4t)       Put the value for e in the denominator.

0.32778 = 1 / e^(0.4t)   Notice the sign's gone. Multiply both sides by e^(0.4t)

0.32778 *e^(0.4t) = 1    Divide by 0.32778

e^(0.4t) = 3.0508          Take the natural log of both sides.

0.4t = 1.11542                 Divide both sides by 0.4

t = 2.78855

You should put this in the original equation to see if it checks. It does.

=============================

Nine

3^(3 - 3x) + 6 = 42         Subtract 6 from both sides

3^(3 - 3x) = 36               Take the log of both sides.

(3 - 3x) ln(3) = ln 36

(3 - 3x) *1.098612 = 3.58352   Divide by 1.098612

3 - 3x = 3.26186             Subtract 3 from both sides

- 3x = 0.26186                 Divide by - 3

x = - 0.087287

Your parents have decided to buy a new Toyota 4Runner for 25,635. According to the dealer, the car will depreciate in value appr
chubhunter [2.5K]
Let the value of the car be represented by V and the amount of years by y. 
This gives us the following formula:
V = 25,635 - 3000y
(This is because we start with a value of $25,635 and the value decreases by $3,000 every year 'y')

Now, we want to know when the car is worth $3,135, so we know V = 3,135
Now we can make up our equation:
25,365 - 3,000y = 3,135

Collecting terms gives us:
-3,000y = -22,500

Finally we divide by -3,000 to find 'y'
y = -22,500 / -3,000 = 7.5

Hence, the car will be worth $3,135 after 7.5 years.

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

This is an example of

C. simultaneous causality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simultaneous causality eliminates the conclusion that is often taken for granted to the effect that one variable is a response variable while the other is an explanatory variable because the two variables, the price and the number of shares, influence each other at the same time.  When more shares are traded than demanded in the stock market in any day, the price tends to go down, and vice versa.
