Answer:
- Josh's book lands first
- Ben's lands about 0.648 seconds later
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the given equation for v=60 and s=40, the height of Ben's book is ...
h(t) = -16t² +60t +40
We want to find t when h(t) = 0, so we're looking for the solution to ....
0 = -16t² +60t +40
Using the quadratic formula, we find the positive value of t to be ...
t = (-60 -√(60² -4(-16)(40)))/(2(-16)) = (15 +√385)/8 ≈ 4.3277
__
Similarly, the height of Josh's book is ...
0 = -16t² +48t +40
t = (-48 -√(48² -4(-16)(40)))/(2(-16)) = (12 +√304)/8 ≈ 3.6794
__
The time before Josh's book lands is shorter by ...
4.3277 -3.6794 ≈ 0.6482 . . . . . seconds
Josh's book reaches the ground first, by about 0.648 seconds.
Answer:
domain is 0 to infinity and range is 5 to infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
x is domain and y is range
One way to solve it is writing two equations based on the info so
y = 5x + 10 for members
y = 6x for nonmembers
(the + 10 isn't included in the second equation because nonmembers won't pay a membership fee)
and to find their intersection point (where the values will be the same), you just set them equal to each other:
5x + 10 = 6x
subtract 5x
x = 10 classes
Answer:
17.74
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction is easily converted to one with a denominator of 100 (a power of 10):

Then the number of interest is ...
17 37/50 = 17 74/100 = 17.74
