5/8 = 10/16
Since it is measured in 1/16 of a pound.  I converted 5/8  to 10/16.

5    =    10
___      __
 8         16      

Multiplied both top and bottom by 2 to get the 16 as the denominator.

A boy throws a ball into the air. The equation h=−16t^2+23t+4 models the path of the ball, where h is the height (in feet) of th
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

0.72secs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the ball in air modeled by the equation:

h=−16t²+23t+4

Required

Total time it spent in the air

To get this we need to calculate its time at the maximum height

At the maximum height,

v = dh/dt = 0

-32t + 23 = 0

-32t = -23

t = 23/32

t = 0.72secs

<em>Hence the total time it spend in the air will be 0.72secs</em>

user100 [1]

Answer:

David earns $10.14 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

David earns for an hour = $8.59

He gets benefits package that is equal to 18% of his hourly wages.

18% of 8.59

\frac{18}{100} × 8.59

= 0.18 × 8.59

= $1.5462 ≈ $1.55

David's per hour earning = $8.59 + $1.55 = $10.14

David earns $10.14 per hour.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

P - Q = - 11b² + 8b - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

P - Q

= - 4b² + 6b - 9 - (7b² - 2b - 5) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= - 4b² + 6b - 9 - 7b² + 2b + 5 ← collect like terms

= - 11b² + 8b - 4
