Answer:

<em>t = 3 seconds</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation, as a function of time, that describes the height of the object that is dropped from the bridge.

The equation is:

h (t) = 144 - 16t ^ 2

Where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.

To know how long it takes the object to fall to the ground we do h (t) = 0 and solve for t.

So:

0 = 144 - 16t ^ 2\\\\16t ^ 2 = 144\\\\t ^ 2 = \frac{144}{16}\\\\t ^ 2 = 9\\\\t_1 = 3\\t_2 = -3

We take the positive solution.

Therefore the object takes 3 seconds to reach the ground

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The circle has a circumference:</u>

  • C = 2πr

This the is arc of full length θ = 360°

<u>Each degree of arc length is:</u>

  • s = 2πr*θ / 360 = πrθ / 180

<u>We have:</u>

  • r = 6 in and θ = 25°

<u>The arc length is:</u>

  • s = π*6*25/180 = (5/6)π inches terms of π

<u>The same arc is:</u>

  • s = (5/6)*3.14 = 2.62 inches (rounded)

A gardener has a container with 6 1/5 ounces of liquid plant fertilizer on Sunday the gardener uses 2 1/2 ounces on a flower gar
sergey [27]
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the container that the gardener has = 6 1/5 pounds
                                                                                                               = 31/5 pounds
We already know that 1 pound = 16 ounce
Then
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the
container that the gardener has = (31/5) * 16 ounce
                                                    = 496/5 pounds                                                          
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer that the gardener uses on Sunday = 2 1/2 ounces
                                                                                                         = 5/2 ounces
Then
The amount of liquid plant fertilizer that are left= (496/5) - (5/2) ounces
                                                                           = (992 - 25)/10 ounces
                                                                           = 967/10 ounces
                                                                           = 96.7 ounces
So the total amount of liquid plant fertilizer left is 96.7 ounces.
