That is when h=0
so assuming yo meant
h(t)=-16t²+24t+16
solve for t such that h(t)=0
because when height=0, the gymnast hits the ground
so
0=-16t²+24t+16
using math (imma complete the square
0=-16(t²-3/2t)+16
0=-16(t²-3/2t+9/16-9/16)+16
0=-16((t-3/4)²-9/16)+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+9+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+25
-25=-16(t-3/4)²
25/16=(t-3/4)²
sqrt both sides
+/-5/4=t-3/4
3/4+/-5/4=t
if we do plus (because minus would give us negative height)
8/4=t
2=t
it takes 2 seconds
Answer:
AC ≈ 5.03
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve the problem above using the trigonometric ratio, they are;
SOH CAH TOA
sin Ф = opposite / hypotenuse
cosФ= adjacent/ hypotenuse
tan Ф = opposite / adjacent
From the diagram above, in reference to angle B;
opposite =AC and adjacent =BC
Since we have opposite and adjacent, the best formula to use is
tanФ = opposite / adjacent
tan B = AC / BC
tan 40 = AC/ 6
Multiply both-side of the equation by 6
6× tan 40 = AC/ 6 × 6
At the right-hand side of the equation, 6 will cancel-out 6 leaving us with just AC
6×tan 40 = AC
5.034598 = AC
AC ≈ 5.03 to the nearest hundredths

Answer:
The answer is 7/24.
Step-by-step explanation:
I attached a picture, but I'll try to walk through it here.
1) A negative and a negative makes a positive, so h becomes positive.
2) I added 7/8 to both sides, in order to "isolate the variable", which simply means to get h by itself, on one side of the equation (you'll likely hear it said both ways).
3) I multiplied 7/8 by 3/3, and multiplied -7/12 by 2/2. This is known as a common denominator, which in this case is 24. You can only add and subtract fractions that have a common denominator.
4) Multiply both of the fractions to get 21/24 + (-14/24). "Adding a negative" is the same thing as subtracting.
5) 21 - 14 = 7, and since our denominators are the same, the answer is 7/24.
You can confirm the answer by substituting, or "plugging" 7/24 into your original equation, in place of h.
