The table shows the height of a soccer ball that has been kicked from the ground over time. (For reference: h(t) = 144 – 16t2) T

ime (seconds) Height (feet) 0 0 0.5 16 1 24 1.25 25 1.5 24 2 16 2.5 0 Which statement describes the rate of change of the height of the ball over time? The rate of change is not constant and decreases over the entire time. Between 0 and 0.5 second the ball rises 16 feet, but between 0.5 and 1 second it rises only 8 more feet. The rate of change is not constant and increases over the entire time. Between 1.5 and 2 seconds the ball falls 8 feet, but between 2 and 12.5 seconds it falls 16 more feet. The rate of change is not constant and decreases then increases over time. The ball rises by 16 in the first half second, but only 8 feet over the next one. After it reaches 25 feet in the air, the ball drops. The rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.

Answer : option D

The rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.

Rate of change is nothing but the slope

To find slope we use formula \frac{Change in height }{change in time}

Time (seconds) Height (feet) Rate of change

0 -------------------------0

0.5 -----------------------16 --------------------\frac{16-0}{0.5-0} =32

1 ----------------------24 --------------------\frac{24-16}{1-0.5} =16

1.25 -----------------------25--------------------\frac{25-24}{1.25-1} =4

1.5 -------------------------24 --------------------\frac{24-25}{1.5-1.25} =-4

2 ----------------------------16 --------------------\frac{16-24}{2-1.5} =-16

2.5 -------------------------0 --------------------\frac{0-16}{2.5-2} =-32

Rate of change is positive till 1.25 seconds and then it becomes negative. From this it is clear that, the rate of change is not constant and increases then decreases over time. The height of the ball above ground gets larger until 1.25 seconds and then gets smaller after that time.

Which best explains if quadrilateral WXYZ can be a parallelogram?
nekit [7.7K]

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. The correct option is A.

<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. Thus, a parallelogram is always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral can or cannot be a parallelogram.

For a parallelogram, the pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Therefore,

1.)  For the first pair.

(x+8) = 15

x = 7

2.) For the second pair

(x+2)=(2x-5)

x + 2 = 2x - 5

2 + 5 = 2x - x

x = 7

(x+2) = (7+2) = 9

Since the measure of the pair of opposite sides is 15 units, the pair of the other two sides measure 9 units.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Given h(x) = |x+3| -5
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The parent function f(x) is equal to f\left(x\right)=\left|x\right|

The translations is 3 units to the left and 5 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

h\left(x\right)=\left|x+3\right|-5

The vertex of the function h(x) is the point (-3,-5)

we know that the parent function f(x) is equal to

f\left(x\right)=\left|x\right|

The vertex of the function f(x) is the point (0,0)

so

The rule of the transformation of f(x) to h(x) is equal to

(x,y) -----> (x-3,y-5)

That means ----> The translations is 3 units to the left and 5 units down

The graph of the equation below is a circle. What is the length of the radius of the circle? (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 17^2
djverab [1.8K]
The correct answer is:  [D]:  "17" .
______________________________________________________
The radius is:  " 17" .
______________________________________________________
Note:
______________________________________________________
The formula/equation for the graph of a circle is:
______________________________________________________
   (x − h)²  +<span> </span> (y − k)² =  r²  ;

in which:  

          " (h, k) " ; are the coordinate of the point of the center of the circle;

           "r" is the length of the "radius" ; for which we want to determine;
_______________________________________________________
We are given the following equation of the graph of a particular circle:
_______________________________________________________

          →  (x − 4)²  +  (y + 12)² =  17² ;

which is in the correct form:

→  " (x − h)²  +  (y − k)² =  r²  " ;

 in which:  " h = 4 " ;

                  " k = -12" ;

                   "r = 17 " ;  which is the "radius" ; which is our answer.

          →  { Note that: "k = NEGATIVE  12" } ;

→  Since the equation <u>for this particular circle</u> contains the expression:             _________________________________________________________    
                      →     "...(y + k)² ..." ;  
         
[as opposed to the standard form:  "...(y − k)² ..." ] ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since the coordinates of the center of a circle are represented by:
            " (h, k) " ;  
 
→  which are:  " (4, -12) " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since:  " k = -12 " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ;
_________________________________________________________
then: 

 " [y − k ] ²  =  [ y − (k) ] ²  =  " [ y − (-12) ] ² " ;
                                    
                                         =  " ( y + 12)² "  ;
                                    
{NOTE:  Since:  "subtracting a negative" is the same as "adding a positive" ;

           →   So;  " [ y − (-12 ] " = " [ y + (⁺ 12) ] " = " (y + 12) "
___________________________________________________  
Note:  The above explanation is relevant to confirm that the equation is, in fact, in "proper form"; to ensure that the:  radius, "r" ;  is:  "17" .
___________________________________________________
           →    Since:  "r  =  17 " ;  

           →  The radius is:  " 17 " ;

          which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  "17" .

Is 19/72 greater than 1/4
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{4}  =  \frac{1 \times 18}{4 \times 18}  =  \frac{18}{72}  \\  \because \: 19 > 18 \\  \therefore \:  \frac{19}{72}  >  \frac{1}{4}  \\

Alenkinab [10]

The question is

if p(x)= 2x³-3x+5, what is the remainder of p(x) divided by (x-5)

We use the synthetic division to find the remainder,

x-5=0

x=5

Now, write the coefficients of polynomial.


5 | 2  0  -3    5

   | ↓ 10  50  235

-------------------------------

     2 10  47  | 240→ is the remainder.

Quotient= 2x²+10x+47


Remainder= 240
