Answer:

$6.50 per bag of popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

let a bag of popcorn be represented by p and a candy bar be b

28p + 40b = $282

17p + 20b = $160.50

this is an example of simultaneous equations

so you have to double the second equation to give 34p + 40b = $321

subtract the equations to give one -- >  6p = $39

divide $39 by 6 to give the value of one bag of popcorn = $6.50

A ball is launched from a 682.276 meter tall platform. the equation for the ball's height h at time t seconds after launch is h(
blagie [28]

The maximum height the ball achieves before landing is 682.276 meters at t = 0.

<h3>What are maxima and minima?</h3>

Maxima and minima of a function are the extreme within the range, in other words, the maximum value of a function at a certain point is called maxima and the minimum value of a function at a certain point is called minima.

We have a function:

h(t) = -4.9t² + 682.276

Which represents the ball's height h at time t seconds.

To find the maximum height first find the first derivative of the function and equate it to zero

h'(t) = -9.8t = 0

t = 0

Find second derivative:

h''(t) = -9.8

At t = 0; h''(0) < 0 which means at t = 0 the function will be maximum.

Maximum height at t = 0:

h(0) = 682.276 meters

Thus, the maximum height the ball achieves before landing is 682.276 meters at t = 0.

(9-4) + 3•8 = 29

Explanation

First you need to apply the PEMDAS rule

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtract

So when solving the problem you first have to solve what’s in Parentheses first. So (9-4) which would equal 5

Next, according to the PEMDAS rule you’d have to do multiplication next. So 3•8 is equal to 24

And finally, the last step is Addition. After you’ve done the Parentheses and Multiplication you have to add up your answers. 5+24 would be 29

Answer= 29
