Answer:
x=5
i just got it right on my quiz
Answer:
90 degree angles (perpendicular bisector of the line)
Have you heard the expressions "shooting fish in a barrel" or
"taking candy from a baby" ?
I've decided to take your points and try not to feel guilty about it.
A). That's it ! That's the equation, for ANY basketball on Earth.
You wrote it right there in your question.
In that equation that you wrote, the ' r ' is the initial velocity.
You said that Adam tossed it straight up, and it was going 10 meters per second
when it left his hand.
So ' r ' in the equation is +10.
The equation is:
<em>d = 10t - 5t² </em> .
It tells you how high the ball is above its tossing height after any number of seconds.
The ' t ' in the equation is the number of seconds. Any letter could have been used,
but ' t ' was cleverly selected because it stands for 'time'.
B). You want to know where it is after 0.5 second ? All you have to do is put '0.5'
into the equation wherever there's a ' t '. Do you really need somebody to do that
for you ?
Well, OK. You're being so overly generous with your points . . .
Distance = 10 t - 5 t²
Distance = 10 (0.5) - 5 (0.5)²
Distance = 5 - 5(0.25)
Distance = 5 - 1.25
<em>Distance = 3.75 meters </em>
<u>positive</u> 3.75 means <u>above</u> Adam's hand.
A thinking exercise:
-- He tossed the ball upwards at 10 meters per second.
-- Why is it not 5 meters above his hands after 0.5 second?
For the first one your equation is h(d)=3/7d+5
If d represents the number of days and the question is wanting to know the height after 1 week (7 days) then you would get this equation once 7 is in the place of d
h(d)=3/7(7)+5
When solved you answer is 8 inch.
For the second one your equation is f(x)=75x+250
If x represents the number of weeks and the question is asking how much money Sam will have after 12 weeks then you will get this equation once putting in 12
f(x)=75(12)+250
Once solved you will get the answer $1150
Hope this helps! :)
