The position function for a free-falling object is s(t) = -16t^2 + vt +5. A ball is thrown upward from the top of a 400-foot bui

lding with an initial velocity of 35 feet per second. At what time will the ball reach the ground (round answer to nearest hundredths)? O at 2.19 seconds at 0 seconds at 6.21 seconds at -4.02 seconds

Answer:

6.21 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function of a free-falling object is,

s(t) = -16t^2+v_0t+s_0

Where,

s_0 = initial height of the object,

v_0 = initial velocity of the object,

Here,

s_0=400\text{ feet}

v_0=35\text{ feet per sec}

Hence, the height of the ball after t seconds,

s(t)=-16t^2+35t+400

When s(t) = 0,

\implies -16t^2+35t+400=0

t=\frac{-35\pm \sqrt{35^2-4\times -16\times 400}}{2\times -16}

t=\frac{-35\pm \sqrt{1225+25600}}{-32}

\implies t\approx -4.02\text{ or }t\approx 6.21

∵ Time cannot be negative,

Hence, after 6.21 seconds the ball will reach the ground.

CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE

Answer:

  • vertex (3, -1)
  • y-intercept: (0, 8)
  • x-intercepts: (2, 0), (4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are being asked to read the coordinates of several points from the graph. Each set of coordinates is an (x, y) pair, where the first coordinate is the horizontal distance to the right of the y-axis, and the second coordinate is the vertical distance above the x-axis. The distances are measured according to the scales marked on the x- and y-axes.

__

<h3>Vertex</h3>

The vertex is the low point of the graph. The graph is horizontally symmetrical about this point. On this graph, the vertex is (3, -1).

<h3>Y-intercept</h3>

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. On this graph, the y-intercept is (0, 8).

<h3>X-intercepts</h3>

The x-intercepts are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis. You will notice they are symmetrically located about the vertex. On this graph, the x-intercepts are (2, 0) and (4, 0).

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The reminder that these are "points" is to ensure that you write both coordinates as an ordered pair. We know the x-intercepts have a y-value of zero, for example, so there is a tendency to identify them simply as x=2 and x=4. This problem statement is telling you to write them as ordered pairs.

PLAYSTOP6The volume of the solid iscubic feet. Use the formula V = Bh. All angles are 90°.9 ft.6 ft.ft.3 ft.2 ft.2ft.
ira [324]

Volumen of A Solid

Given a solid with a shape of a constant base B and height H, the volume is:

V = BH

The height of the solid is 1 1/4 ft. We need to calculate the area of the base.

The base consists of a larger rectangle from which has been taken a smaller rectangle.

The larger rectangle has dimensions of 9 ft by 6 ft, thus its area is:

A1 = 9 ft * 6 ft = 54 square ft

The smaller rectangle has dimensions of 2 1/2 ft by 4 ft.

The second dimension was calculated as the difference between 9 ft and 2 ft plus 3 ft. (9 ft - 3 ft - 2 ft = 4 ft).

The area of the smaller rectangle is:

A2 = 2 1/2 * 4

The mixed fraction 2 1/2 is converted to improper fraction:

2 1/2 = 2 + 1/2 = 5/2

Thus, the area is:

A2 = 5/2 * 4

A2 = 10 square feet

The area of the base is A1 - A2 = 54 square feet - 10 square feet = 44 square feet

B = 44 square feet.

Now for the volume:

V = 44 square feet * 1 1/4 feet

Again the mixed fraction is converted to a single fraction:

1 1/4 = 1 + 1/4 = 5/4

V = 44 square feet * 5/4 feet

V = 55 cubic feet

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :  

hello :

note :

Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)   when : x_1= -1      y_1= 5  

     m= the slope is : (YC - YA)/(XC -XA)

(-1-2)/(0-3) = -3/-3 =1

( parallel to AC means same slope)

an equation in the point-slope form is : y -5 = 1(x+1)

y=x+6
