Option A

Answer:

The product of -4 and 8.1 is -32.4

Solution:

When we multiply a negative number with a positive number we get the resultant product as a negative number.

Here we have to multiply - 4 which is a negative number and 8.1 which is a positive number.

To simplify the multiplication calculation we can write 8.1 as 8+0.1 and then multiply 4 with both 8 and 0.1

-4 $\times$ 8.1 = -4 $\times$ (8+0.1)

⇒ -4 $\times$ 8.1 = -4 $\times$ 8 – 4 $\times$ 0.1 [Multiplying 4 with 8 and 0.1]

⇒ -4 $\times$ 8.1= -32 - 0.4

⇒ -4 $\times$ 8.1= - 32.4

Thus the product of -4 and 8.1 is -32.4

Chech the picture below.

if the person kicked it from the ground, that means its initial height is 0.

it reaches its maximum height at the y-coordinate of its vertex, and it will hit the ground when y = 0, as you see in the picture.

$\bf ~~~~~~\textit{initial velocity}
\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
~~~~~~\textit{in feet}
\\\\
h(t) = -16t^2+v_ot+h_o
\end{array} 
\quad 
\begin{cases}
v_o=\stackrel{8}{\textit{initial velocity of the object}}\\\\
h_o=\stackrel{0}{\textit{initial height of the object}}\\\\
h=\stackrel{}{\textit{height of the object at "t" seconds}}
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
h(t)=-16t^2+8t+0$

now let's find the y-coordinate of its vertex

$\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}
\\\\
h(t)=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-16}t^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+8}t\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+0}
\qquad \qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~ c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
\\\\\\
\left(\qquad ,~~0-\cfrac{8^2}{4(-16)} \right)\implies (\quad ,~0+1)\implies (\quad ,~1)$

when will it hit the ground?

$\bf \stackrel{h(t)}{0}=-16t^2+8t\implies 16t^2-8t=0\implies 8t(2t-1)=0
\\\\\\
8t=0\implies \stackrel{\textit{0 seconds when it took off first}}{t=0}
\\\\\\
2t-1=0\implies 2t=1\implies \stackrel{\textit{half a second later it when it came back down}}{t=\cfrac{1}{2}}$

Weird question. logically, the only answer that can make sense is a negative one since it is a decreasing slope. the secant is the average rate of change (and is 1/tangent) the tangent is the instantaneous rate of change. (1/secant) we want the first one which is:ΔxΔy=Δ weeksΔ lbs=5−0137−150=5−13=−0.3846

in the second half of the game, the Wildcats again scored 18 points. This time, however, we don't know how many total shots were

Kobotan [32]

Lets start with the chain of 3's:

18 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3

But, we know that

3 + 3 = 2 + 2 + 2

Sol, let's replace 3 + 3 by 2 + 2 + 2 one by one.

Hence, the possible ways of combinations are listed below:

18 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 (1)

18 = 3 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 (2)

Therefore, there are two combinations of 2- and 3- point shots that could total 18 points.
