Answer:
The bird will take 0.88 seconds to reach a height of 40 feet in the air for the first time
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is a vertical parabola open downward
The vertex represent a maximum
where
h is the height of the bird
t is the amount of time, in seconds, the bird had been in the air
For h=40 ft
substitute in the quadratic equation



The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem we have

so
substitute in the formula
therefore
The bird will take 0.88 seconds to reach a height of 40 feet in the air for the first time
Ray KM is an angle bisector of NKL.
If you put in the substitutions it would be 2*2-(2*2*4)+(3*2)-(-4*2)+(2*4).
Simplified further by multiplying it would be 2*2-8+6--8+8
the negative 8 could be simplified further since the negatives cancel out so you'll have 2*2-8+6+8+8.
Then using the order of operations you would multiply the 2's together first to get 4 so you have 4-8+6+8+8.
After that it's simple addition giving you an answer of -26.
I'm not sure if you're looking for the final answer or just the equation with substitutions but there's both.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let he speed of the boat on the lake is x.
<u>Considering the speed of the current it will take him:</u>
- 22.5/(x + 6) + 22.5/(x - 6) = 9
- 2.5 / (x + 6) + 2.5 / (x - 6) = 1
- 2.5(x - 6 + x + 6) = (x + 6)(x - 6)
- 2.5*2x = x² - 36
- x² - 5x - 36 = 0
- x = (5 ± √(5² + 4*36))/2 = (5 ± 13) / 2
- x = (5 + 13)/2 = 9 mph (negative root is discarded as the speed should be positive)
Find the Greatest Common Factor of both numbers which is 5. Then divide the numerator by 5 and the denominator by 5 and you will get 5/16 as the simplest form
