2>8-4h/3  subtract 8 from both sides

-6>-4h/3  multiply both sides by 3

-18>-4h  divide both sides by -4 (and reverse sign because of division by a negative value)

Your cell phone plan gives you 500 minutes monthly. If you have used 310 minutes already and there is a week left in this month,
aksik [14]
The minutes remaining till the end of the month = 500 - 310 = 190 minutes
now to split these minutes equally, we will divide them by 7 days of week
daily usage = 190/7 = 27.14 minutes
since we can not talk for 0.14 minutes, therefore,to equally split the remaining minutes, you should speak 27 minutes per day with one extra minutes remaining to be used on the day you choose

An acorn falls from the branch of a tree to the ground 25 feet below. The distance, S, that the acorn is from the ground as it f
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The fall of the acorn is represented by the function,

S(t) =-16t^2+25

Equating S(t) to 0 gives,

0=-16t^2+25

i.e. 16^2=25

i.e. t^{2}=\frac{25}{16}

i.e. t=\pm \frac{5}{4}

Since, time cannot be negative.

So, t=\frac{5}{4} i.e. 1.25 seconds is the time when the acorn will reach the ground.

Thus, from the figure below, we see that,

The interval in which the acorn is in the moving air is 0.
