Answer:

The maximum number of 76-pound boxes that can be loaded in the elevator is:

  • <u>26 boxes</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the maximum lift capacity is 2000 pounds and each box is identical (meaning there are no heavier or lighter boxes) than 76 pounds, the number of boxes can be identified by the following equation:

  • The maximum number of boxes = maximum lift capacity / weight per box.

Whereby replacing the values we get:

  • Maximum number of boxes = 2000 pounds / 76 pounds
  • <u>Maximum number of boxes = 26.3158 boxes</u>

Since the boxes are represented by integers, <u>the maximum number of boxes that can be loaded into the elevator at one time is 26</u>.

5/12lb of dog food in each container.

This seems like a division problem so you would take (5/4) and divide it by 3 to make 3 equal groups meaning 5/12lb would be in each container.

I hope this helps, good luck!

The height 'h' (in feet) of a ball in a baseball game can be modeled by h = -16t² + 28t + 8 , where 't' is the time (in seconds)
lidiya [134]

Answer:

  a)  No. t < 0 is not part of the useful domain of the function

  b) 2.0 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A graph of the function is shown below. It shows t-intercepts at t=-0.25 and t=2.0. We presume that t is measured forward from some event such as the ball being thrown or hit. The model's predicted ball location has no meaning prior to that event, when values of t are negative.

__

b) It is convenient to use a graphing calculator to find the t-intercepts. Or, the equation can be solved for h=0 any of several ways algebraically. One is by factoring.

  h = 0 = -16t² +28t +8 . . . . . . . . . . . . the ball hits the ground when h = 0

  0 = -4(4t² -7t -2) = -4(4t +1)(t -2)

This has t-intercepts where the factors are zero, at t=-1/4 and t=2.

The ball will hit the ground after 2 seconds.
