Answer:

t = √(2d/g); 3.70 s  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the distance (d) travelled by a falling object in time (t) is  

d = ½gt²

Multiply each side by 2                    2d = gt²

Divide each side by g                 (2d/g) = t²

Take the square root of each side     t = √(2d/g)

Data:

d = 220 ft

g = 32.17 ft·s⁻²

Calculation:

t = √ [(2 × 220)/32.17] = √13.68 = 3.70 s

The ball will hit the ground 3.70 s after it is released.

Answer:

The number of sandwiches sold is 73. This is because it is multiplied by the expression for the money received per sandwich.

The cost to make each sandwich is <em>S. </em>This is stated in the first sentence of the problem.

<em />

The profit is 0.2<em>S. </em>This is because they sell each sandwich for an additional 20% of the cost ( S )

<em />

The amount of money the band receives is (<em>S </em>+ 0.2<em>S </em>). This is because it is the price per sandwich.

Rasheed is contemplating whether to buy a membership for a trampoline park, which is $50 a year. As a
docker41 [41]

Answer: 28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the cost for the trampoline park without a membership is equal to the price of the jump tickets per hour (12) multiplied by the number of hours (h).

Cost without membership= 12h

With the membership the price of each jump ticket has a 15% discount ( so, 100-15 =85% of the total price ). To calculate the cost for this case we have to add the cost of the membership 50, and multiply the cost of each jump ticket (12) by 0.85 (percentage in decimal form)

Cost with membership = 50 +12 (0.85) h

If both cost are equal:

50 +12 (0.85) h = 12 h

Solving for h

50+10.2h =12h

50= 12h-10.2h

50= 1.8h

50/1.8= h

27.78 =h

h =28 (rounded)
