Find each product or quotient. Use significant digits. 1,370 m 31.7 s

1 answer:

8 0

I think you are asking for the quotient of the numbers because base from the choices the units are meters per second and the given has units of meters and seconds. So, the quotient of the numbers is 43.218 meters per second which is option B.

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h ( t ) = − 4.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

$\displaystyle 1)48.2 \: \: \text{sec}$

$\rm \displaystyle 2)3021.6 \: m$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Question-1:</h3>

so when flash down occurs the rocket will be in the ground in other words the elevation(height) from ground level will be 0 therefore,

to figure out the time of flash down we can set h(t) to 0 by doing so we obtain:

$\displaystyle - 4.9 {t}^{2} + 229t + 346 = 0$

to solve the equation can consider the quadratic formula given by

$\displaystyle x = \frac{ - b \pm \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4 ac} }{2a}$

so let our a,b and c be -4.9,229 and 346 Thus substitute:

$\rm\displaystyle t = \frac{ - (229) \pm \sqrt{ {229}^{2} - 4.( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}$

remove parentheses:

$\rm\displaystyle t = \frac{ - 229 \pm \sqrt{ {229}^{2} - 4.( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}$

simplify square:

$\rm\displaystyle t = \frac{ - 229 \pm \sqrt{ 52441- 4( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}$

simplify multiplication:

$\rm\displaystyle t = \frac{ - 229 \pm \sqrt{ 52441- 6781.6} }{ - 9.8}$

simplify Substraction:

$\rm\displaystyle t = \frac{ - 229 \pm \sqrt{ 45659.4} }{ - 9.8}$

by simplifying we acquire:

$\displaystyle t = 48.2 \: \: \: \text{and} \quad - 1.5$

since time can't be negative

$\displaystyle t = 48.2$

hence,

at 48.2 seconds splashdown occurs

<h3>Question-2:</h3>

to figure out the maximum height we have to figure out the maximum Time first in that case the following formula can be considered

$\displaystyle x _{ \text{max}} = \frac{ - b}{2a}$

let a and b be -4.9 and 229 respectively thus substitute:

$\displaystyle t _{ \text{max}} = \frac{ - 229}{2( - 4.9)}$

simplify which yields:

$\displaystyle t _{ \text{max}} = 23.4$

now plug in the maximum t to the function:

$\rm \displaystyle h(23.4)- 4.9 {(23.4)}^{2} + 229(23.4)+ 346$

simplify:

$\rm \displaystyle h(23.4) = 3021.6$

hence,

about 3021.6 meters high above sea-level the rocket gets at its peak?

You earn three dollars an hour as a waitress after working three hours you earn 12 five and seven dollars in tips how much money

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The waitress earned a total of 33 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine total earnings from wages;

Total earnings from wages=Earnings per hour×number of hours worked

where;

Earnings per hour=3 dollars an hour

Number of hours worked=3 hours

replacing;

Total earnings from wages=(3×3)=9 dollars

Step 2: Determine total earnings from tips

Total earnings from tips=(12+5+7)=24 dollars

Step 3: Calculate total money earned

Total money earned=Total earnings from tips+total earnings from wages

where;

Total earnings from tips=24 dollars

Total earnings from wages=9 dollars

replacing;

Total money earned=(9+24)=33 dollars

The waitress earned a total of 33 dollars
