Answer:

3 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Sandra throws an object straight up into the air with initial velocity of 38 ft per second from platform that is 30 ft above the ground.

To find the time it will take for object to hit the ground, we will use formula:  

h(t)=-16t^2+v_0t+h_0, where, v_0 represents initial velocity and h_0 represents initial height.

Upon substituting our given initial velocity and initial height, we will get:

h(t)=-16t^2+38t+30

We know that object will hit the ground, when height will be 0, so we will equate object's height equal to 0 and solve for t as:

-16t^2+38t+30=0

Divide by 2:

-8t^2+19t+15=0

Upon using quadratic formula, we will get:

t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-19\pm\sqrt{19^2-4(-8)(15)}}{2(-8)}

t=\frac{-19\pm\sqrt{361+480}}{-16}=\frac{-19\pm\sqrt{841}}{-16}

t=\frac{-19\pm29}{-16}

t=\frac{-19-29}{-16},t=\frac{-19+29}{-16}

t=\frac{-48}{-16},t=\frac{10}{-16}

t=3,t=-\frac{5}{8}

Since time cannot be negative, therefore, it will take 3 seconds for object to hit the ground.

Annabelle read 10 books in 2 months. What was her rate of reading, in books per month?
goblinko [34]

Answer:

5 books per month

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find a rate.

To find books per month, we would take the number of books and divide it by the number of months.

This would give us 10 books/2 months.

10/2 simplifies to 5.

Therefore the answer would be 5 books per month.

If ƒ(x) = x − 4 and g(x) = 3x + 5, find (ƒ + g)(x).
siniylev [52]

Answer:

(f+g)(x)=4x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two functions:

f(x)=x-4\text{ and } g(x)=3x+5

And we want to find:

(f+g)(x)

This is equivalent to:

=f(x)+g(x)

By substitution:

=(x-4)+(3x+5)

Rearranging yields:

=(x+3x)+(-4+5)

Combine like terms:

=4x+1

Hence:

(f+g)(x)=4x+1

Please help me out here, I’ve been reposting the same questions and have not seen people not answer mine. :( just please i will
anastassius [24]

Answer:

There are infinite solutions because they are the same equation

2D + 1G = 12

and

4D + 2G = 24 (divide by 2) 2D + G = 12

2D + 1G = 12 is the same as 2D + 1G = 12
