Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth. A rocket is launched from atop a

76-foot cliff with an initial velocity of 135 ft/s. a. Substitute the values into the vertical motion formula h=-16t2+vt+c Let h = 0. b. Use the quadratic formula find out how long the rocket will take to hit the ground after it is launched. Round to the nearest tenth of a second.

When it hits the ground, then h=0
find the xintercept or in this case the tintercepts
c=76
v=135

h=-16t^2+135t+76
use quadratic formula

ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

a=-16
b=135
c=76

x=\frac{-135+/- \sqrt{135^2-4(-16)(76)} }{2(-16)}
x=\frac{-135+/- \sqrt{18225+4864} }{-32}
x=\frac{-135+/- \sqrt{23089} }{-32}
aprox
x=-0.5297 or 8.967
exclude the negative root since you can't have negative time

means that it takes 8.97 seconds to hit the ground

Answer:   4095

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

He sold 1 car on the first day so the first term (a) is 1. The amount doubles each month so the ratio (r) is 2.

Input those values into the Sum formula:

S_n=\dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\S_{12}=\dfrac{1(1-2^{12})}{1-2}\\\\.\quad=\dfrac{1-4096}{-1}\\\\.\quad=\dfrac{-4095}{-1}\\\\.\quad=4095

Blood is a buffer solution. When carbon dioxide is absorbed into the bloodstream, it produces carbonic acid and lowers the pH. T
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

x ≅ 20.10 torr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the equation which models blood pH in the question is;

pH(x)=6.1+log(800/x)

where;

pH = 7.7

x = partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood, measured in torr.

we are asked to find (x)

In order to do that, we use the given equation:

pH(x)=6.1+log(800/x)

since pH = 7.7

7.7 = 6.1 + log (800/x)

7.7 - 6.1 =  log (800/x)

1.6 =  log (800/x)

10^{1.6}= \frac{800}{x}

x= \frac{800}{10^{1.6}}

x = 20.09509145

x ≅ 20.10 torr
