The percent of people that is 65%.

78/120 = .65
.65 * 100 = 65
65%

Hope this helps you! (:

78 /120 =0.65

0.65 x 100 = 65%

the answer is 65%

The equation h(t) = -16t² + 80t + 64 represented the height, in feet, of a potato t seconds after it has been launched.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Part A) The potato hit the ground at t=5.70 seconds (see the explanation)

Part B) The potato is 40 feet off the ground at the time t=5.28 seconds (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$h(t)=-16t^2+80t+64$

where

h(t) is the height of a potato in feet

t is the time in seconds

Part A) Write an equation that can be solved to find when the potato hits the ground. Then solve the equation

we know that

When the potato hit the ground, the value of h(t) must be equal to zero

so

For h(t)=0

$-16t^2+80t+64=0$

Solve the quadratic equation

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-16t^2+80t+64=0$

so

$a=-16\\b=80\\c=64$

substitute in the formula

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-16)(64)}} {2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}$

$t=\frac{-80+\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}=-0.70$

$t=\frac{-80-\sqrt{10,496}} {-32}=5.70$

therefore

The potato hit the ground at t=5.70 seconds

Part B) Write an equation that can be solved to find when the potato is 40 feet off the ground. Then solve the equation

For h(t)=40 ft

substitute in the quadratic equation

$-16t^2+80t+64=40$

$-16t^2+80t+24=0$

Solve the quadratic equation

we have

$a=-16\\b=80\\c=24$

substitute in the formula

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-16)(24)}} {2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{-80\pm\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}$

$t=\frac{-80+\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}=-0.28$

$t=\frac{-80-\sqrt{7,936}} {-32}=5.28$

therefore

The potato is 40 feet off the ground at the time t=5.28 seconds

Factor to the given polynomial completely.<br><br> 4x³+24x²-288x

STatiana [176]

Answer: $\Large\boxed{4x(x+12)(x-6)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given expression</u>

4x³ + 24x² - 288x

<u>Factorize 4x out from the expression</u>

4x · x² + 4x · 6x - 4x · 72

4x (x² + 6x - 72)

<u>Cross multiply to factorize the remaining polynomial expression</u>

<em>The meaning is to allow the factored product of the constant to add up to the first-degree term</em>

x 12

x -6

<u>Combine the result</u>

$\Large\boxed{4x(x+12)(x-6)}$

Hope this helps!! :)

How do you multiply a fraction by a whole number

morpeh [17]

Assuming the +'s are actually x's 1/2 of 3 is 1.5 and 1.5 divided by 7 is 1.5/7.(answer is 1.5/7) hopefully I'm right.
