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].

Nitella [24]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

By tracing the figure, we see that we go around a semicricle twice and go in a straight path twice. So the perimeter of this figure consists of two semicircles and two line segments, hence the answer is C.

How long should the wooden frame be (use 3.14 for pi)
scoundrel [369]
C=2πr
The  C stands for circumference 
the π is Pi (3.14) 
and r is the radius (length of half a circle)

Since the sides are 10 ft you multiply that by 2 to get the length of both sides which gives you 20 feet. 

Then to find the circle, since both are half circles. You can just do the normal circumference equation and you will end up with the same answer.

For example in this problem: this problem gives you the diameter but you need the radius of the circle. C=2(π)(1.5)

C=9.42 < this is the circumference of the circle. 

Then you add the sides of the table which are 20 feet. 

So the final answer is 29.42 feet.

At an airport, its costs $7 to park for up to one hour and $5 per hour for each additional hour. Let x represent the number of h
Iteru [2.4K]

the answer would be C

 because it is taking the total hours ( x) and subtracting 1 ( the first hour that cost $7

and then multiplying x by the $5 per minute and then adding the $7 for the first hour
