Answer:

k = -1/240

Step-by-step explanation:

to evaluate the value of k in the expression 1/3k+80=1/2k+120

we have

1/3k+80=1/2k+120

collect the like terms for easy evaluation

1/3k - 1/2k = 120 -80

1/3k - 1/2k = 40

find the lcm

2 - 3/6k = 40

-1/ 6k = 40

cross multiply

6k x 40 = -1

240k = -1

divide both sides by 240

240k/240 = -1/ 240

k = -1/240

therefore the value of k in the expression 1/3k+80=1/2k+120 is equals to -1/240

Maria throws a softball straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 50 ft/sec. The ball leaves her hand when it is exac

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The equation that models the situation is $s_{f} = 4+\frac{v_{f}^{2}-2500}{64.348}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that effects from air friction and Earth's rotation can be neglected, so that the softball can be modelled experiment a free fall, that is, an uniform accelerated motion due to gravity. From we know the initial velocity and position of the position and we can determine the final position of the ball as a function of the final velocity:

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{o}^{2}+2\cdot a \cdot (s_{f}-s_{o})$ (1)

Where:

$s_{o}$ , $s_{f}$ - Initial and final position of the softball, measured in feet.

$a$ - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$v_{o}$ , $v_{f}$ - Initial and final velocities of the softball, measured in feet per second.

If we know that $v_{o} = 50\,\frac{ft}{s}$ , $a = -32.174\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $s_{o} = 4\,ft$ , then the equation that models the situation is:

$v_{f}^{2} = 2500-64.348\cdot (s_{f}-4)$

Then, we clear the final position of the softball:

$-\frac{v_{f}^{2}-2500}{-64.348} = s_{f}-4$

$s_{f} = 4+\frac{v_{f}^{2}-2500}{64.348}$

The equation that models the situation is $s_{f} = 4+\frac{v_{f}^{2}-2500}{64.348}$ .

PLSSSS ASAPPP!!!!!!!!!!

konstantin123 [22]

The answer is 13, i got this by using the pythagorean theorem. a^2 + b^2 = c^2. in this case it would be 84^2 + b^2 = 85^2. then that would turn into 7056 + b^2 = 7225, subtract both sides by 7056 to get b^2 = 169, then square 169 to get 13 :)
