Answer:

As per the statement:

A ball is thrown straight up from the top of a tower that is 280 ft high with an initial velocity of 48 ft/s .

Given the height of the object can be modeled by the equation:

s(t) = -16t^2+48t+280

where, t is the time in sec.

Since, we have the height s(t) = 280 ft

⇒280 = -16t^2+48t+280

Subtract 280 from both sides we have;

⇒0= -16t^2+48t

⇒0 = -16t(t-3)

By zero product property we have;

t = 0 and t-3 = 0

⇒t = 0 and t = 3

so, we need 3 second,  after that the ball is lower than the building.

Now, time to reach the ground

Substitute s(t) = 0

0= -16t^2+48t+280

or

-16t^2+48t+280 = 0

⇒-2t+6t+35 = 0

⇒t = -2.9441 and t = 5.9441

Since, t cannot be in negative

⇒t = 5.9441 s

so, at time t = 5.9441 sec it reaches ground.

Therefore, Interval where the height  of the ball is lower than the building is,

(3, 5.9441]

First find the time that the ball is level with the top of the building on its descent. You can do this by  solving 280 = -16^2 + 48t + 280 for t. This gives t = 3 seconds . 
Then when the ball reaches the ground the  time t is obtained by solving 0 = -16t^2 + 48t + 280  This gives t = 5.94 seconds.
Answer in interval notation is  (3, 5.94].

A company that offers tubing trips down a river rents tubes for a person to use for $20 and “cooler” tubes to carry food and wat
aivan3 [116]

The group rent 11 river rent tubes and 4 cooler tubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rent for river rent tube = $20

Rent for cooler tubes = $12.50

Total spent = $270

Total tubes rented = 15

Let,

x be the number of river rent tube.

y be the number of cooler tubes.

According to given statement;

x+y=15    Eqn 1

20x+12.50y=270    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 20

20(x+y=15)\\20x+20y=300\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

(20x+20y)-(20x+12.50y)=300-270\\20x+20y-20x-12.50y=30\\7.50y=30

Dividing both sides by 7.5

\frac{7.5y}{7.5}=\frac{30}{7.5}\\y=4

Putting y=4 in Eqn 1

x+4=15\\x=15-4\\x=11

The group rent 11 river rent tubes and 4 cooler tubes.
