Answer:

The direct distance between the birds is 12.64 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, one bird flew 12 miles west and another bird flew 4 miles north. It is required to find the direct distance between the birds. It means we need to find the resultant of two displacement. It can be given by :

$d=\sqrt{12^2+4^2} \\\\d=12.64\ \text{miles}$

So, the direct distance between the birds is 12.64 miles.

Physics students drop a ball from the top of a 100 foot high building and model its height as a function time with the equation

pishuonlain [190]

When the ball hits the ground, the height is 0.

0 = 100 - 16t²

0 = (10 - 4t)(10 + 4t)

0 = 10 - 4t or 0 = 10 + 4t

4t = 10 or -4t = 10

t = $\frac{10}{4}$ or t = $-\frac{10}{4}$

Time cannot be negative (unless you have a time machine) so disregard $-\frac{10}{4}$

Answer: t = $\frac{5}{2}$ = 2.5 seconds

Which of the following expressions represents the distance between -1/4 and 3/4?

Sliva [168]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{C.\ \left|-\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{3}{4}\right|}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{The formula of a distance between x and y on a number line:}\\\\d=|b-a|=|a-b|\\\\\text{We have}\ a=-\dfrac{1}{4}\ \text{and}\ b=\dfrac{3}{4}.\ \text{The distance:}\\\\d=\left|-\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{3}{4}\right|=\left|\dfrac{3}{4}-\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\right|$
