Terrence finished a word search in 3/4 the time it took frank. charlotte finished the word search in 2/3 the time it took terren
Luden [163]

Answer:

Charlotte-16

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the time that Charlotte took we just first have to calculate the time that Terrence took to finish the word search, that is done by multiplying the 32 minutes that Frank took by the three quartes that it took terrence:

Time=(\frac{3}{4}) (32)\\Time=(\frac{96}{4})\\Time=24

So now we know that It took terrence 24 minutes, and that Charlotte took two thirds of that time so we now just multiply that:

Time=(\frac{2}{3}) (24)\\Time=(\frac{48}{3})\\Time=16

(4 pts) If a rock is thrown vertically upward from the surface of Mars with an initial velocity of 15m/sec
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I see you're in college math, so we'll solve this with calculus, since it's the easiest way anyway.

The position equation is

s(t)=-1.86t^2+15t  That equation will give us the height of the rock at ANY TIME during its travels. I could find the height at 2 seconds by plugging in a 2 for t; I could find the height at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t, etc.

The first derivative of position is velocity:

v(t) = -3.72t + 15 and you stated that the rock will be at its max height when the velocity is 0, so we plug in a 0 for v(t):

0 = -3.72t + 15 and solve for t:\

-15 = -3.72t so

t = 4.03 seconds. This is how long it takes to get to its max height. Knowing that, we can plug 4.03 seconds into the position equation to find the height at 4.03 seconds:

s(4.03) = -1.86(4.03)² + 15(4.03) so

s(4.03) = 30.2 meters.

Calculus is amazing. Much easier than most methods to solve problems like this.
