Answer:the number of kids that used the public pool that day is 122

the number of adults that used the public pool that day is 92

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of kids that used the public pool that day.

Let y represent the number of adults that used the public pool that day.

214 people used a public swimming pool. This means that

x + y = 214

1.50 for kids and $2.25 for adults. The receipt totaled to $390. This means that

1.5x + 2.25y = 390 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 214 - y into equation 1, it becomes

1.5x

1.5(214 - y) + 2.25y = 390

321 - 1.5y + 2.25y = 390

- 1.5y + 2.25y = 390 - 321

0.75y = 69

y = 69/0.75 = 92

Substituting y = 92 into x = 214 - y, it becomes

x = 214 - 92 = 122

Brian invests £1500 into his bank account. He receives 2% per year simple interest. How much
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest is given as

S.I = PRT/100

Where

S.I is simple interest

R is rate in %

P is the principal

And T is time in years

So, given that

Principal (P)=£1500

Rate(R) =2%

Time(T)= 3years

Then, we are asked to find amount after 3years

S.I=PRT/100

S.I=1500×2×3/100

S.I= £90

This is the interest Brian will receive

So, the money will amount to

Amount=Principal + interest

Amount = 1500+90

Amount = £1590.

So Brian will have £1590 after 3years

PLEASE HELPPP!!!

Answer:

a) -16t^{2}+64t\geq40

b)[2-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2} , 2+\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}]

(see attached picture for the number line)

This interval means that from about 0.78s to about 3.22s the ball will not be visible because it will be higher than 40 feet high.

c) h_{max}=64ft

d) t=2s

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Basically the ball will disappear when it is higher than 40 ft, so we can build the inequality like this:

-16t^{2}+64t\geq40

this is because the function represents it's height, so when the function is greater than or equal to 40, then the ball will disappear.

b) to solve the inequality, first we need to turn the ≥ symbol to an = symbol and solve for t, so we get:

-16t^{2}+64t =40

we can move the 40 to the other side of the equation so we get:

-16t^{2}+64t-40=0

we can factor the equation so it's easier to solve, so we get:

-8(2t^{2}-8t+5) =0

which simplifies to:

2t^{2}-8t+5=0

and we can use the quadratic formula to solve this equation, so we get:

t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

so we get:

t=\frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{(-8)^{2}-4(2)(5)}}{2(2)}

which yields:

2\pm \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}

and next we need to test the posible intervals to see which one makes the inequality true, the possible intervals are:

(-\infty, 2-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}]  for a test value of 0

[2-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2},2+\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}] for a test value of 1

[2+\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2},\infty) for a test value of 4

so next we test each of the values in the original inequality and see if the inequality is true:

(-\infty, 2-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}] for a test value of 0

-16(0)^{2}+64(0)\geq40

0\geq40 false

so this is not an answer.

[2-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2},2+\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}] for a test value of 1

-16(1)^{2}+64(1)\geq40

48\geq40

true, so this is an answer.

[2+\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}, \infty) for a test value of 4

-16(4)^{2}+64(4)\geq40

-16(16)+64(4)\geq40

-256+256\geq40

0\geq40

false, so this is no answer.

So the answer is the interval:

[2-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2},2+\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}]

This interval means that from about 0.78s to about 3.22s the ball will not be visible because it will be higher than 40 feet high.

c) In order to find how high Penelope kick the football, we must find the vertex of the parabola which is gotten when graping the given function (see attached picture)

so we can use the following formula to find the t-value for this maximum height:

t=-\frac{b}{2a}

so we substitute the corresponding values:

t=-\frac{64}{2(-16)}

which yields:

t=2s

next, we can substitute this time into the original function to find the maximum height, so we get:

h=-16(2)^{2}+64(2)

which yields:

h=64 ft

d) We found the answer for d on the previous part where we got that t=2s
