A gymnast dismounts the uneven parallel bars. Her height, h, depends on the time, t, that she is in the air h = −162 + 24t + 16.

How long will it take the gymnast to reach the ground?

That is when h=0
so assuming yo meant
h(t)=-16t²+24t+16
solve for t such that h(t)=0
because when height=0, the gymnast hits the ground

so
0=-16t²+24t+16
using math (imma complete the square
0=-16(t²-3/2t)+16
0=-16(t²-3/2t+9/16-9/16)+16
0=-16((t-3/4)²-9/16)+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+9+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+25
-25=-16(t-3/4)²
25/16=(t-3/4)²
sqrt both sides
+/-5/4=t-3/4
3/4+/-5/4=t
if we do plus (because minus would give us negative height)
8/4=t
2=t
it takes 2 seconds

Someone please help me out with this, thank you!
zaharov [31]

Answer:

(2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the x-intercept is 2

and y-intercept is-2

x-intercept is when you have a number comma 0 e.g 3,0. 2,0

y-intercept is when u have 0 comma a number e.g 0,2 0,-5

Which equation represents the line that is perpendicular to graph of 4x+3y=9 and passes through (-2,3)
goldfiish [28.3K]

4y = 3x + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

NOTE THAT A line that is perpendicular to another has a negative inverse of the slope of the other line. The products of their slopes, that is, is always -1

Therefore we can begin by finding the slope of this line defined by the function 4x+3y=9

3y = -4x + 9

y = -4/3 x + 9/3

y = -4/3 x + 3

The slope of the  perpendicular line is, therefore;

¾  - this is the negative inverse of -4/3

Now that we know the slope, we need to find the y-intercept. This is where x = 0 and the line meets the y-axis;

i.e (0, y)

The other given point, where the line crosses  is (-2, 3). Remember that to get the gradient we use the formula;

Gradient = Δ y / Δ x

¾ = (3 – y) / (-2 – 0)

¾ = (3 –y) / -2  

¾ * -2 = 3 – y

-3/2 = 3 – y

-3/2 – 3 = -y

9/2 = y           ←– This is the y-intercept

Remember the function of a straight line is given;

y = mx + c (m being slope and c being y-intercept)

y = 3/4 x + 9/2

4y = 3x + 18

This figure is made up of a quadrilateral and a semicircle.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The correct option is B. The area of the figure is 40.4 units².

Step-by-step explanation:

The line AB divides the figure in two parts one is a rectangle and another is semicircle.

The distance formula is

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

The length of AB is

AB=\sqrt{(2+3)^2+(4-2)^2}=\sqrt{25+4}=\sqrt{29}

The length of AD is

AD=\sqrt{(-1+3)^2+(-3-2)^2}=\sqrt{4+25}=\sqrt{29}

Since AB=AD, therefore ABCD is a square. The area of the of square is

A_1=a\times a=\sqrt{29}\times \sqrt{29} =29

The area of square is 29 units².

The area of a semicircle is

A_2=\frac{\pi}{2}r^2

Since AB is the diameter of the semicircle, therefore the radius of the semicircle is

r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2}

The area of the semicircle is

A_2=\frac{3.14}{2}(\frac{\sqrt{29}}{2})^2=40.3825

The area of the figure is

A=A_1+A_2=29+11.2825=40.3825\approx 40.4

Therefore the area of the figure is 40.4 units². Option B is correct.
