Answer: 4.47 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the rock will reach the river when the height (h) is 0.

So, replacing in the equation given:

h= -16t2+320

Where t is the time  

0= -16t2+320

Solving for t

-320 = -16t2

-320/-16 =t2

20 = t2

√20 =t

4.47 = t

Assuming that t is the time in seconds, the rock will reach the river after 4.47 seconds.

A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide. if its length is increase by 4 cm and its width is decreased by 3 cm, the new rectan

Now the width is w.
It's twice as long as wide, so now the length is 2w.

If the length is increased by 4 cm, the length will be 2w + 4.
The width is decreased by 3 cm, so the width will be w - 3.

The are of the new rectangle is 100 cm^2.

area = length * width

area = (2w + 4)(w - 3)

The area of the new rectangle is 100, so we get

(2w + 4)((w - 3) = 100

2w^2 - 6w + 4w - 12 = 100

2w^2 - 2w - 112 = 0

w^2 - w - 56 = 0

(w - 8)(w + 7) = 0

w - 8 = 0   or   w + 7 = 0

w = 8   or   w = -7

A width cannot be negative, so discard w = -7.

w = 8

The width is 8 cm.
The length is twice the width, so the length is 16 cm.

Task 1 Nonlinear Systems of Equations Create a system of equations that includes one linear equation and one quadratic equation.
Luden [163]

Answer:

hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

solution:

x^2 + 3x + 5 = x + 13

x^2 + 2x -8 = 0

(x+4)(x-2) = 0

x = -4 or x = 2

if x = -4, y = 9

if x = 2 , y = 15
