240 feet or 34,560 inches.

Okay so since there are 4 diamonds, and 60 feet in between you need to multiply 4×60. That seems really hard but really you just need to remove the 0 in the 60 so then it is 4×6. That equals 24, then just add the 0 back on to get your final answer of 240

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Part A) The graph in the attached figure (see the explanation)

Part B) 16 feet

Part C) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Graph the function

Let

h(t) ----> the height in feet of the ball above the ground

t -----> the time in seconds

we have

$h(t)=-16t^{2}+98$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex is a maximum

To graph the parabola, find the vertex, the intercepts, and the axis of symmetry

<em>Find the vertex</em>

The function is written in vertex form

The vertex is the point (0,98)

Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of the function when the value of t is equal to zero

For t=0

$h(t)=-16(0)^{2}+98$

$h(0)=98$

The y-intercept is the point (0,98)

Find the t-intercepts

The t-intercepts are the values of t when the value of the function is equal to zero

For h(t)=0

$-16t^{2}+98=0$

$t^{2}=\frac{98}{16}$

square root both sides

$t=\pm\frac{\sqrt{98}}{4}$

$t=\pm7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}$

therefore

The t-intercepts are

$(-7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4},0), (7\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4},0)$

$(-2.475,0), (2.475,0)$

Find the axis of symmetry

The equation of the axis of symmetry in a vertical parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

$x=0$ ----> the y-axis

To graph the parabola, plot the given points and connect them

we have

The vertex is the point $(0,98)$

The y-intercept is the point $(0,98)$

The t-intercepts are $(-2.475,0), (2.475,0)$

The axis of symmetry is the y-axis

The graph in the attached figure

Part B) How far is the artifact fallen from the time t=0 to time t=1

we know that

For t=0

$h(t)=-16(0)^{2}+98$

$h(0)=98\ ft$

For t=1

$h(t)=-16(1)^{2}+98$

$h(1)=82\ ft$

Find the difference

$98\ ft-82\ ft=16\ ft$

Part C) Does the artifact fall the same distance from time t=1 to time t=2 as it does from the time t=0 to time t=1?

we know that

For t=1

$h(t)=-16(1)^{2}+98$

$h(1)=82\ ft$

For t=2

$h(t)=-16(2)^{2}+98$

$h(2)=34\ ft$

Find the difference

$82\ ft-34\ ft=48\ ft$

The artifact fall 48 feet from time t=1 to time t=2 and fall 16 feet from time t=0 to time t=1

therefore

The distance traveled from t=1 to t=2 is greater than the distance traveled from t=0 to t=1

An observer stands 25 feet from the base of a flagpole and watches a flag being lowered at a rate of 5 ft/sec. Determine the rat

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

0.1 rad/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the distance from or to the flagpole is not given, I will assume. And my assumption is 50 ft

Now, the elevation angle A = 45 degrees, converting to radians, we have π/4 radians

Remember that the tan of an angle is OPP/HYP, and so

tan A = h/25, on differentiating, we have

d tan A/dA = sec^2 A = (1/25) dh/dA

Next, we have

25 sec^2 A * dA/dt= dh/dt = 5

Making dA/dt the subject of formula, we have

dA/dt = (1/5) cos^2 A

but cos^2 A from trigonometry = 1/2, this means that

dA/dt = .1 radians/second

If you want to convert to degrees, your have

.1 Rad/s( 180 deg/rad) = 18 degrees/second

Leftover Expression

Mumz [18]

The second leftover expression is not o(a+b). It is 6(a + b). I have attached the correct question to depict that.

Answer:

The equivalent expressions are;

8a + 2 and 6a + 6b

Step-by-step explanation:

The two leftover expressions are given as;

2(4x + 1) and 6(a + b)

In algebra, equivalent expressions are simply those expressions which when simplified, give the same resulting expression as the initial one.

Thus simply means expanding or collecting like times to make it clearer.

Now, in our question, like terms have already been collected. This means that to find an equivalent expression, we will just expand the bracket.

Thus;

2(4x + 1) will be expanded by using the 2 outside the bracket to multiply the terms inside the bracket. This gives;

8x + 2

Similarly,

6(a + b) will be expanded by using the 2 outside the bracket to multiply the terms inside the bracket. This gives;

6a + 6b

Thus;

The equivalent expressions are;

8a + 2 and 6a + 6b

2.1 , - 6/10 , -9/4 , -0.75 , 5/3 , least to greatest

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

-9/4, -0.75, -6/10, 5/3, 2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a lot easier to figure out if you simplify the fractions and then change them to decimals

So -9/4 = -2 1/4 or -2.25

-0.75

-6/10 = -0.60

5/3 = 1 2/3 or 1.67

2.1

When you are ordering negatives, the biggest negative is the least. That is why -9/4 (-2.25) is the least number out of the five given.

The next one would be -0.75, because it is the second biggest negative fraction.

The next one is -0.60 because that is the 3rd biggest negative fraction (or the smallest because this is the last negative)

Now, because we're in the positives we start with 1.67, because it is smaller than the other number.

2.1 is our last number, so it is the greatest!

I hope this helped :)
