Answer:

3 ft, 5ft, 6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To build a kennel of my dog, I would try to make it the largest possible with what I have.

So, I would go with the 3 longest planks: 3ft, 5ft and 6ft.

By looking at the length, I see I could make something very close to a right triangle since I could use the 6ft as an hypotenuse, and have the two other sides as 3ft and 5 ft  (6² is almost 3²+5², which equal 34).

That means my corner angle would be slightly over 90 degrees.

An object launched vertically from a point that is 37.5 feet above ground level with an initial velocity of 48.6 feet per second
Elis [28]

Answer: 3.675 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, when the object hits the ground, h=0:

h=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5

0=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5

We have to apply the quadratic formula:  

For: ax2+ bx + c  

x =[ -b ± √b²-4ac] /2a  

Replacing with the values given:  

a=-16 ; b=48.6; c=37.5

x =[ -(48.6) ± √(-48.6)²-4(-16)37.5] /2(-16)  

x = [ -48.6 ± √ 4,761.96] /-32

x = [ -48.6 ± 69] /-32

Positive:  

x = [ -48.6 + 69] /-32 = -0.6375

Negative:  

x = [ -48.6 - 69] /-32 = 3.675 seconds (seconds can't be negative)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Which function is a quadratic function? F(x) =2x^2, g(x) =5x^3,k(x)=-x,b(x)=-9x^4
Katen [24]

Answer:

F(x)=2x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, a quadratic function has x^2 in it (standard form ax^2+bx+c with non-zero a). The others have x^3, -x, x^4, etc., which clearly are NOT x^2.

A rectangular lawn has an area of 140 square yards. Its width is 6 yards less
Katarina [22]

Answer:

length : 10 yard

width: 14  yard

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be the length of the yard.

Since the width is 6 yards less than twice its length, we can say the width is 2l-6.

With width x length=area,

l (2l -6) = 140

2l^2 - 6l = 140

2l^2 - 6l - 140 = 0

Using the quadratic formula,

we can determine l = 10 or -7

since the length should not be negative,

the length is 10 yard.

Now substitute l=10 into 2l-6.

width = 2(10)-6

= 14 yard
