H=-16t^2+46t+6 after how many seconds will the ball hit the ground?
ANEK [815]
Ball hit the ground is when the function equals zero
0=-16t^2+46t+6
we can't factor so use quadraticformula

for
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}
x=\frac{-46+/- \sqrt{46^2-4(-16)(6)} }{2(-16)}
x=\frac{-46+/- \sqrt{2116+384} }{-32}
x=\frac{-46+/- \sqrt{2500} }{-32}
x=\frac{-46+/- 50 }{-32}
x=\frac{-46+ 50 }{-32} or \frac{-46- 50 }{-32}
x=\frac{4}{-32} or x=\frac{-96}{-32}
x=-1/6 or x=3

we cannot have negative time because time starts at 0
disregard -1/6 as a possible answer


answer is after 3 seconds

what are the steps to answer this question? Jeff is baking a cake. The recipe says that he has to mix 32 grams of powder to the
Deffense [45]
Well what I would do first is to divide 128 by 32 which I do believe gets you 4. So now you know that 1 cup of powder can make 4 servings. So you now know that each serving only requires 1/4 cup of the powder.

So now we know Jeff went over so now we have Jeff added 2/3 and he only needs 1/4. I would now make them both equivalent by multiplying the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 4 and the same for 1/4 but instead by 4 multiply it by 3 which you would get 2/3=8/12 and 1/4=3/12. Now subtract the two to get your answer.

8/12-3/12=5/12

Answer: He went over and he needs to remove 5/12 of the cup

A) In a group of 60 students, 15 liked maths only, 20 liked science only and 5 did not like
Paladinen [302]

Part (i)

We have 60 students total, and 5 didn't like any of the two subjects, so that must mean 60-5 = 55 students liked at least one subject.

<h3>Answer: 55</h3>

=========================================================

Part (ii)

We have 15 who like math only, 20 who like science only, and 55 who like either (or both). Let x be the number of people who like both classes.

We can then say

15+20+x = 55

x+35 = 55

x = 55-35

x = 20

This means 20 people liked both subjects

<h3>Answer: 20</h3>

=========================================================

Part (iii)

There are 15 people who like math only, and 20 who like both. Therefore, there are 15+20 = 35 people who like math (and some of these people also like science)

<h3>Answer: 35</h3>

=========================================================

Part (iv)

We'll follow the same idea as the previous part. There are 20 people who like science only and 20 who like both subjects. That yields 40 people total who like science (and some of these people also like math).

<h3>Answer: 40</h3>

=========================================================

Part (v)

We'll draw a rectangle to represent the entire group of 60 students. This is considered the universal set. Inside the rectangle will be two overlapping circles to represent math (M) and science (S).

We'll have 15 go in circle M, but outside circle S to represent the 15 people who like math only. Then we have 20 go in circle S but outside circle M to show the 20 people who like science only. We have another copy of 20 go in the overlapped region between the circles. This is the 20 people who like both classes. And finally, we have 5 go outside both circles, but inside the rectangle. These are the 5 people who don't like either subject.

Note how all of the values in the diagram add up to 60

15+20+20+5 = 60

This helps confirm we have the correct values.

The polynomial $f(x)$ has degree 3. If $f(-1) = 15$, $f(0)= 0$, $f(1) = -5$, and $f(2) = 12$, then what are the $x$-intercepts o
Alex_Xolod [135]

Your calculator's cubic regression function can tell you the equation is

... f(x) = 2x³ + 5x² -12x = x(x +4)(2x-3)

The x-intercepts are -4, 0, +1.5.

_____

If you want to solve this "by hand", you can first of all recognize that since there is an x-intercept at 0, the cubic will only have three coefficients. That is, you can write the equation as

... f(x) = ax³ + bx² + cx

Substituting the given points (except (0, 0)) gives three linear equations in a, b, c.

... -a +b -c = 15 . . . . . for x=-1

... a + b + c = -5 . . . . for x=1

... 8a +4b +2c = 12 . . for x=2

adding the first two equations gives 2b=10, or b=5. Now, you can reduce the system to

... a + c = -10

... 4a +c = -4

Subtracting the first of these equations from the second gives 3a=6, or a=2. That tells you c=-12 (from a+c=10).

Then your equation is

... f(x) = x(2x² +5x -12)

Factoring by any of the usual techniques, or graphing, or using the quadratic formula will tell you the zeros (x-intercepts) are as above.

_____

Since the input values are sequential, you can also develop the function from differences of the output values. Those are 15, 0, -5, 12. First differences are -15, -5, +17. Second differences are +10, +22. The third difference is 12. Using the first of these differences in appropriate places in the interpolating polynomial formula, we have

... f(x) = 15 + (x+1)(-15 + (x)/2·(10 + (x-1)/3·(12))) = 2x³ +5x² -12x . . . . as above
