we know that

The formula of the surface area of the cone is equal to

SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl

where

SA is the surface area

r is the radius of the cone

l is the slant height

in this problem we have

SA=500\pi\ ft^{2}\\r=15\ ft\\l=?

Solve the formula for l

SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl\\ \\\pi rl=SA-\pi r^{2} \\ \\l=\frac{SA-\pi r^{2} }{\pi r}

substitute the values

l=\frac{500\pi -\pi 15^{2} }{\pi15}\\ \\l=\frac{275}{15}\ ft\\ \\l=\frac{55}{3}\ ft\\ \\l=18\frac{1}{3}\ ft

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The slant height is 18\frac{1}{3}\ ft

Answer:

The formula for the slant height of a cone is , where S is surface area of the cone. Use the formula to find the slant height, l, of a cone with a surface area of 500π ft2 and a radius of 15 ft. l = ft         <u>Answer: 275 ft</u>

An object is launched from a launching pad 144 ft. above the ground at a velocity of 128ft/sec. what is the maximum height reach
ollegr [7]

Answer:

18) a. h(x) = -16x² + vx + h(0) ⇒ h(x) = -16x² + 128x + 144

b. The maximum height = 400 feet

c. Attached graph

19) The rocket will reach the maximum height after 4 seconds

20) The rocket hits the ground after 9 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the rule of motion for an object with constant acceleration

# The distance S = ut ± 1/2 at², where u is the initial velocity, t is the time

  and a is the acceleration of gravity

# The vertical distances h in x second is h(x) - h(0), where h(0)

   is the initial height of the object above the ground

∵ h(x) = vx + 1/2 ax², where h is the vrtical distance, v is the initial

  velocity, a is the acceleration of gravity (32 feet/second²) and x

  is the time

18)a.

∵ The value of a = -32 ft/sec² ⇒ negative because the direction

   of the motion

  is upward

∴ h(x) - h(0) = vx - (1/2)(32)(x²) ⇒ (1/2)(32) = 16

∴ h(x) = vx - 16x² + h(0)

∴ h(x) = -16x² + vx + h(0) ⇒ proved

* Find the height of the object after x seconds from the ground

∵ h(0) = 144 and v = 128 ft/sec

∴ h(x) = -16x² + 128x + 144

b.

* At the maximum height h'(x) = 0

∵ h'(x) = -32x + 128

∴ -32x + 128 = 0 ⇒ subtract 128 from both sides

∴ -32x = -128 ⇒ ÷ -32

∴ x = 4 seconds

- The time for the maximum height = 4 seconds

- Substitute this value of x in the equation of h(x)

∴ The maximum height = -16(4)² + 128(4) + 144 = 400 feet

c. Attached graph

19)

- The object will reach the maximum height after 4 seconds

20)

- When the rocket hits the ground h(x) = 0

∵ h(x) = -16x² + 128x + 144

∴ 0 = -16x² + 128x + 144 ⇒ divide the two sides by -16

∴ x² - 8x - 9 = 0 ⇒ use the factorization to find the value of x

∵ x² - 8x - 9 = 0

∴ (x - 9)( x + 1) = 0

∴ x - 9 = 0 OR x + 1 = 0

∴ x = 9 OR x = -1

- We will rejected -1 because there is no -ve value for the time

* The time for the object to hit the ground is 9 seconds

Graph both functions to find the solution(s) to the system.
BaLLatris [955]

   <span> f(2) = 2×2 − 1 = 3</span>

The point of intersection is (2, 3).

The example shows that we can find the point of intersection in two ways.
Either graphically, by drawing the two graphs in the same coordinate system, or algebraically by solving the equation such as the one in the above example.

<span>Solving an equation graphically is easy with a graphical calculator or a computer program such as Excel.
Some equations cannot be solved algebraically but we can find solutions that are correct to as many significant figures as we want by using computers and calculators</span>
