Answer:

75 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mercy chews an average of 32 gums a month

Then how many months would it take her to finish 2,400 sticks of gum?

1 month= 32 gums

? = 2,400 gums

2,400/ 32= 75.

Therefore,from the above mentioned calculation, it is determined that it would take 75 months to finish 2,400 gums if Mercy chews at a rate of 32 gums a month.

The calculation is based on the fact that there is already an average number of gums used in a month, so from there it was easy to solve and calculate how many months it would take to consume 2,400 sticks of gum.

A ball is thrown upward from ground level. Its height h, in feet, above the ground after t seconds is h-48t -16t^2.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

36 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a ball is thrown upward from ground level. Its height h, in feet, above the ground after t seconds is $h(t)=-48t -16t^2$ . We are asked to find the maximum height of the ball.

We can see that our given equation is a downward opening parabola, so its maximum height will be the vertex of the parabola.

To find the maximum height of the ball, we need to find y-coordinate of vertex of parabola.

Let us find x-coordinate of parabola using formula $x=-\frac{b}{2a}$ .

$x=-\frac{-48}{2(-16)}$

$x=-\frac{48}{32}$

$x=-\frac{3}{2}$

So, the x-coordinate of the parabola is $-\frac{3}{2}$ . Now, we will substitute $x=-\frac{3}{2}$ in our given equation to find y-coordinate of parabola.

$h(t)=-48t -16t^2$

$h(-\frac{3}{2})=-48(-\frac{3}{2})-16(-\frac{3}{2})^2$

$h(-\frac{3}{2})=-24(-3)-16(\frac{9}{4})$

$h(-\frac{3}{2})=72-4*9$

$h(-\frac{3}{2})=72-36$

$h(-\frac{3}{2})=36$

Therefore, the maximum height of the ball is 36 feet.

Plese i need help on this one !!!!!!!

Answer:

I got 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the Pythagorean theorem to find the lengths of the width and length. The length between (-1, 4) and (3, 3) was approximately 4 in. The distance between (-1, 4) and (-3, -4) was approximately 8 in. I then used those numbers to find the perimeter ((2*4)+(2*8))
