Answer:

y = - 16t² + 55.6t + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using y - y₀ = vt - 1/2gt² where g = 32 ft/s², and v the velocity of the football

So y = y₀ + vt - 1/2 × (32 ft/s²)t²

y = y₀ + vt - 16t² where y₀ = 6.5 ft

y = 6 + vt - 16t²

Now, when t = 3.5 s, that is the time the teammate catches the ball after the quarterback throws it, y = 5 ft. Substituting these into the equation, we have

5 = 6.5 + v(3.5 s) - 16(3.5 s)²

5 = 6.5 + 3.5v - 196

collecting like terms, we have

5 - 6.5 + 196 = 3.5v

194.5 = 3.5v

v = 194.5/3.5 = 55.57 ft/s ≅ 55.6 ft/s

So, substituting v into y, our quadratic model is

y = 6 + 55.6t - 16t²

re-arranging, we have

y = - 16t² + 55.6t + 6

A camera regularly priced at 295 was placed on sale at 236. What percent of the regular price was the sale price?
skad [1K]

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

regular price was given as $295.

The sale of the camera was $236.

Needed Percentage of the regular price =( 236/295)

= 0.8

=(0.8 × 100%)

= 80%

Which equation represents exponential decay? * a y=3^x-4 b y=2(4)^x c y=1/2(3)^x d: y=6(1/3)^x
yuradex [85]

The equation which represents exponential decay is y=6(1/3)^{x}

Given four equations : 1)y=3^{x} -4, 2) y=2(4)^{x}, 3) y=3^{x}/2, 4) y=6(1/3)^{x}.

Equation is relationship between two or more variables expressed in equal to form. Equations of two variables look like ax+by=c. Exponential equation look like a^{x}.

Decay means when x value increases ,the y value decreases.

We haveto put 3 values for x in the equations to check.

1)y=3^{x} -4

put x=0,y=-3

put x=1, y=-1

put x=2, y=5

No,itdoes not represents exponential decay.

2) y=24^{x}

put x=0,y=2

put x=1, y=8

put x=2, y=32

No,it does not represents exponential decay.

3) y=3^{x}/2

put x=0,y=0.5

put x=1, y=1.5

put x=2, y=4.5

No,it does not represents exponential decay.

4)y=6(1/3)^{x}

put x=0,y=6

put x=1, y=2

put x=2, y=0.67

Yes ,it represents exponential decay.

Hence the equation which represents exponential decay is y=6(1/3)^{x}.

If Ryan pays his car insurance for the year in full, he will get a credit of $28. If he chooses to pay a monthly premium, he wil
Deffense [45]
The one year-plan would have a credit, so it would have a positive sign. In the monthly plan, there is a high risk of being late in paying the bills. That's why a fine of $10 is given for every month that you are late. If you are not time conscious and you end up being late every month, it would give you a negative balance.
