By the Pythagorean Theorem:

24^2+d^2=25^2

576+d^2=625

d^2=49

d=√49

d=7 ft

The height of a diver above the water is given by the quadratic function h(t)= -5t^2+5t+10, with t in seconds and h(t) meters. W
galben [10]

Answer:

0.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: h(t) = -5t²+5t=10

Where h(t) is in meter, t is in seconds.

The driver will reach maximum height when d[h(t)]/d(t) = 0

From the equation,

d[h(t)]/d(t) = -10t+5

Therefore,

-10t+5 = 0

Solve for t

-10t = -5

10t = 5

t = 5/10

t = 0.5 seconds.

Hence the height will be maximum in 0.5 seconds.

Find the length of the arc.<br> 120°<br> 6ft
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The length of the arc is 8*pi cm. An arc that subtends a central angle of 120 degrees has a length of 120/360 = 1/3 the length of the total circumference of the circle. We know the entire circumference of the circle is 2πr, which in this case is 2π*12 = 24π.

This week at HEB, pork chops cost $1.60 per pound. Steve bought 2 1/4 pounds of pork chops. If he paid with a $10 bill, how much
kompoz [17]

Answer:

He received $6.40 in change.

Explanation:

Since he bought 2.25 pounds, you multiply that by 1.6 to get a sum of 3.6. Since he paid with a ten dollar bill, and he only has to pay 3.60, they will give him back 6.40 in change.

Hope this helped :)

A pilot can travel 450 miles with the wind in the same amount of time as 360 miles against the wind. Find the speed of the wind
Lunna [17]

Given:

A pilot can travel 450 miles with the wind in the same amount of time as 360 miles against the wind.

Pilot's speed in still air is 315 miles per hour.

To find:

The speed of the wind.

Solution:

Let the speed of wind be x miles per hour.

Speed with wind = 315+x miles per hour

Speed against wind = 315-x miles per hour

We know that,

Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}

According to the question,

\dfrac{450}{315+x}=\dfrac{360}{315-x}

Divide both sides by 90.

\dfrac{5}{315+x}=\dfrac{4}{315-x}

By cross multiplication, we get

5(315-x)=4(315+x)

5(315)-5x=4(315)+4x

5(315)-4(315)=4x+5x

(5-4)315=9x

Divide both sides by 9.

\dfrac{(1)315}{9}=x

35=x

Therefore, the speed of wind is 35 miles per hour.
