A pumpkin is launched directly upwards at 72 feet per second from a platform 12 feet high. The pumpkin's height, h, at time t se

Illusion [34]

Answer:

93 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first find the time it takes to reach the maximum height. We can do this by differentiating the height function to get velocity:

dh(t)/dt = v(t) = -32t + 72

The maximum height will occur when the velocity becomes 0. Therefore, the time it takes to reach maximum height is:

0 = -32t + 72

32t = 72

t = 72/32 = 2.25 seconds

Therefore, the maximum height of the pumpkin is:

h(2.25) = -16(2.25)^2 + 72(2.25) + 12

h(2.25) = -81 + 162 + 12

h = 93 feet

1) Sally sprints 300 yards in a minute. Quadra runs 20% further than Sally in the same time.

Free_Kalibri [48]

1) answer = 360
explanation =
-> 10% of 300 = 300*10
-> 10% of 300 = 30
-> 20% = 10% x 2
-> 20% = 30 x 2
-> 20% = 60
-> 300 yards ( distance they ran ) + 60 yards ( how much more distance Quadra ran ) = 360 yards
2) answer = Newton spends 10 minutes or 1/6 hours reading
explanation =
-> 25% = 1/4
-> 40*4= 10
-> 1 hrs = 60 min
-> 10 min x 6 = 60 min
-> 1/6 hrs = 10 min
3) answer = 30 fish
explanation =
-> 40% = 12
-> 10% = 3
-> 40*4=10 and 12*4=3
-> 10% + 40% = 50% so 12 + 3 = 15
-> 50% = 15 and 100% = 15 x 2
-> 100% = 30
4) answer = 30
explanation =
-> 1/4 is equal to 25 %
-> add up all the prrcentages ( 25% + 10% + 15% = 50% )
-> she have 50% of tej chocolates Which were in the tin she bought away and kept 15 chocolates to herself
-> 50% = 1/2
-> 50% x 2 = 100%
-> 15 x 2 = 30

Identify is this is percent increase or percent decrease, then calculate percentage

vlabodo [156]

<em>Last year the chess club had 30 members. This year the club has 24 members. </em>

Last year, the chess club had 30 members. This year, the club has 24 members. Since this year had less than last year ( 30 > 24), the percent will be decreasing.

To find the percent decrease, you have to use the following formula.

$\frac{Difference}{Original} \times 100$

Difference refers to the difference between the two numbers, 24 and 30. The difference between 24 and 30 is 6. Original refers to the original number, which is last year's amount of members in the chess group. Therefore, original = 30.

Substitute the numbers into the formula.

$\frac{Difference}{Original} =\frac{6}{30} =0.2$

To convert the decimal to a fraction, multiply the decimal by 100.

$0.2 \times 100 = 20 \%$

The answer is the number of chess members decreased by 20%.

____

Since I started off by identifying whether it was decreasing or increasing, I did the work a bit differently. When finding the difference, you would usually subtract 30 from 24, which results in -6. Above I used 6, but if you used -6, you would end up with a result of -20%, which means it decreased by 20%. They bot end up with the same result, but you don't always have to first identify whether it's decreasing or increasing.
