Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let : x the length and y the width    .... ( x  > y and x ; y reals numbers )

the perimeter is : 2(x+y)

2(x+y) = 55...(1)

x/y = 7/4 ...(2)

by (2) : x = (7/4)y

subsct in (1) : 2( (7/4)y +y ) =55

(7/2)y +2y =55

multiply by 2

7y +4y = 110

11y = 110

y = 10

x = (7/4)(10)

x = 35/2

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The ball reaches a height of 29.25 ft after 1.125 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum height of a parabola can always be found by looking for the vertex. You can find the x value (or in this case the t value) of a vertex by using -b/2a in which a is the coefficient of x^2 and b is the coefficient of x.

-b/2a

-(36)/2(-16)

-36/-32

1.125 seconds

Now to find the height, we input that value in for t

h = -16t^2 + 36t + 9

h = -16(1.125)^2 + 26(1.125) + 9

29.25 feet

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

7218°C

Step-by-step explanation:

difference between the two numbers 7000 and -218 is

7000-(-218) = 7000+218 = 7218

(NOTE: <em>When conditions like this arise, when two minus (-) sign come together, replace the two minus with a plus sign and open the brackets. When two plus sign occurs together, do not replace it with a minus sign, just replace with a  single plus sign</em>)
