Answer:
- h = 0 when the ball hits the ground
- about 3.464 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula gives h = 192 when t=0, so we assume that h represents the height above the ground. The ball will have a height of 0 when it hits the ground.
__
Using that in the equation, we can solve for t.
0 = 192 -16t^2
0 = 12 -t^2 . . . . . . divide by 16
t^2 = 12 . . . . . . . . add t^2
t = √12 = 2√3 ≈ 3.464 . . . . take the square root
It will take 2√3 seconds, about 3.464 seconds, for the ball to hit the ground.
Answer:
63 vehicles are not white
Step-by-step explanation:
Well you know that there are 175 total vehicles, and that 64% of those vehicles are white. Therefore the remaining percentage of vehicles must not be white.
100%-64%=36%
This means that 36% of the vehicles aren't white.
Now you must find what 36% of 175 is. The word "of" always signals for multiplication, which is exactly what you need to do here. First start by converting the percentage into decimal form:
36%=0.36
Now you can multiply
175 x 0.36 = 63
63 Vehicles are not white
