A person standing at the edge of a cliff throws a rock upward from a height of 180ft above ground level with an initial velocity

of 64ft/s. Calculate the velocity of the rock when it is exactly 48ft above the person’s hand. Separate multiple answers with a comma. (Hint: Use h(t)=−16t2+64t+180 as the position function, where h is in feet, t in seconds. Ignore air resistance.)

Answer: 8.73 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following equation that models the motion of the rock:

h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+180

Where h(t) is the height of the rock at a time t.

Now, if  h(t)=48 ft we can find t and then the velocity of the rock at that height:

48=-16t^{2}+64t+180

Rearranging the equation:

-16t^{2}+64t+132=0

Multiplying the equation by -1:

16t^{2}-64t-132=0

Solving with the quadratic formula t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}  , where a=16, b=-64, c=-132 .

t=\frac{-(-64)\pm\sqrt{(-64)^{2}-4(16)(-132)}}{2(16)}

Choosing the positive result of the equation:

t=5.5 s  

Since velocity V is defined as the traveled distance h(t) in a given time t, we have:

V=\frac{h(t)}{t}

V=\frac{48 ft}{5.5 s}

V=8.727 ft/s \approx 8.73 ft/s This is the velocity of the rock at the height of 48 feet

The area of the rectangle is
igomit [66]

Answer:

L = 3x - 2

P = 6x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length * width

A = l*w

so if the width is 6 inches we can say w = 6

and we can say that l = to the length of the rectangle

if we substitute this:

(18x - 12) = l * 6

we get the answer l = 3x - 2 since we divide both sides by 6.

the expression for length of the rectangle is -> l = 3x - 2

for the perimeter:

P = 2(l + w)

if we substitute this:

P = 2(3x - 2) + 6

distributive property:

P = 2(3x) - 2(2) + 6

then would be:

P = 6x - 4 + 6

(combine like terms) -> P = 6x - (4 + 6)

then you would get: P = 6x - 10

which can also be writtern as -> P = 6x + (-10)

but this is not simplified so you would just write it as 6x - 10

Hope this helps, and hope this was the answer you were looking for. Thank you. Sorry if this does not help
