\bf \stackrel{\textit{ball's height}~\hfill }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{h}=1+15t-5t^2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{ball's height}~\hfill }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{6}=1+15t-5t^2}\implies 0=-5+15t-5t^2 \\\\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{using the quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{5}t^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-15}t\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{+5}=0 \qquad \qquad t= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}

\bf t=\cfrac{-(-15)\pm\sqrt{(-15)^2-4(5)(5)}}{2(5)}\implies t=\cfrac{15\pm\sqrt{225-100}}{10} \\\\\\ t=\cfrac{15\pm\sqrt{125}}{10}\implies t=\cfrac{15\pm\sqrt{5^2 \cdot 5}}{10}\implies t=\cfrac{\stackrel{3}{~~\begin{matrix} 15 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}\pm ~~\begin{matrix} 5 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~\sqrt{5}}{\underset{2}{~~\begin{matrix} 10 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}

\bf t=\cfrac{3\pm \sqrt{5}}{2}\implies t= \begin{cases} \frac{3+ \sqrt{5}}{2} \approx 2.618\\\\ \frac{3- \sqrt{5}}{2}\approx 0.382 \end{cases}

The designer sketched a model of the pond. The model drawing had a circumference of 24 inches. What is the AREA of the model she
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Area of model pond = 45.6 inch² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Circumference of circular pond = 24 inches

Find:

Area of model pond

Computation:

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Circumference of circular pond = 2πr

24 = 2[22/7][r]

Radius r = [24 x 7] / [2 x 22]

Radius r = 3.81 inch (Approx.)

Area of circle = πr²

Area of model pond = πr²

Area of model pond = (22/7)(3.81)²

Area of model pond = [3.1428][14.5161]

Area of model pond = 45.6 inch² (Approx.)
