Answer:

it will take 5.5 seconds to hit the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

A projectile is shot vertically from the ground level. It’s height h, in feet, after t seconds is given by h = 88t - 16t ^2

When the projectile hits the ground then the height becomes 0

h = 88t - 16t ^2

0 = 88t - 16t ^2

GCF is -8t

0 = 8t(11 - 2t)

now set each factor =0 and solve for t

8t=0, t=0

11-2t=0, t=\frac{11}{2}

So it will take 5.5 seconds to hit the ground

Answer:

5.5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

h = 88t - 16t ^2

where, h is height (in feet) of projectile after t seconds.

We need to find the time taken by projectile to hit the ground.

At ground level, the height of projectile is 0.

Substitute h=0 in the given function to find the time at which it hit the ground.

0=88t - 16t ^2

0=8t(11 - 2t)

Using zero product property we get

8t=0\Rightarrow t=0

11-2t=0\Rightarrow t=\frac{11}{2}=5.5

It mean projectile hits the ground at x=0 and x=5.5 seconds. We know that x=0 is the initial stage.

Therefore, so time taken by projectile to hit the ground is 5.5 seconds.

The observation deck of the willis tower in Chicago Illinois is 1353 feet above the ground elevators lift visitors to that level
Paul [167]

Answer: The the speed of elevators is 22.55.

Explanation:

It is given that observation deck of the willis tower in Chicago Illinois is 1353 feet above the ground elevators lift visitors to that level in 60 seconds.

The speed is the change in distance with respect to time.

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}

From the given information the total distance is 1353 and the total time is 60 seconds. So by the above formula we get,

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{1353}{60}

\text{Average Speed}=22.55

Therefore, the speed of elevators is 22.55.

HELP PLEASE! whats the height and base??
ddd [48]

Answer: 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the bottom left triangle = 4x3/2 = 6

Bottom right = 6x3/2 = 9

Top right = 3x4/2 = 6

Top left = 6x3/2 = 9

6+9+6+9 = 30

Each square unit is 4

So the answer should be 30/4 = 7.5

Hope this is correct
