Answer:

The stone will be in flight for 3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation;

d = -16t^2 + vt + h

Where;

v = the initial velocity

h = the initial height

Given;

v = 48 ft/s

h = 0

Substituting into function d;

d = -16t^2 + 48t + 0

d = -16t^2 + 48t

At the point of launch and the point of landing d = 0.

We need to calculate the values of t for d to be equal to zero.

d = -16t^2 + 48t = 0

-16t^2 + 48t = 0

Factorising, we have;

16(-t+3)t = 0

So,

t = 0 or -t+3 = 0

t= 0 or t =3

Change in t is;

∆t = t2 - t1 = 3 - 0

∆t = 3 seconds.

The stone will be in flight for 3 seconds.

Water flows through a pipe at a rate of 8600 cubic meters per hour. Express this rate of flow in quarts per second. Round your a
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

R = 2524 quarts/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Water flows through a pipe at a rate of 8600 cubic meters per hour.

We know that,

1 m³ = 1056.69 quarts

1 hour = 3600 s

Rate of flow of water = 8600 cubic meters per hour

R=8600\ \dfrac{m^3}{h}\\\\=8600\times \dfrac{1056.69\ \text{quarts}}{3600\ s}\\\\=2524.311\ \text{quarts/s}

or

R = 2524 quarts/s

So, the rate of flow of water is 2524 quarts/s.

Which polynomial identity will prove that 19 = 27 − 8? Difference of Squares Difference of Cubes Sum of Cubes Square of a Binomi
Lyrx [107]
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "Difference of Cubes". 
<span>__________________________________________________________

Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
Note that the equation/identity for the "difference of cubes" is expressed as:
___________________________________________________</span><span>_______

        " a</span>³ − b³ = (a − b)(a² + ab + b²) "  ; 
<span>__________________________________________________________

Note the given equation:  " 19 = 27 </span>− 8 " ;   →  (which is true). 
__________________________________________________________

       The "right hand side" of this equation:

            →  " 27 − 8 " ;  contains two numbers:  
         
            →  "27" and "8" ;  both of which are "cubes" ; 

            → that is:  ∛27 = 3 ;   ↔  3³ = 3 * 3 * 3 = 9 * 3 = 27 ;  <u><em>and</em></u>:

                               ∛ 8  = 2 ;  ↔  2³ = 2 * 2 * 2 = 4 * 2 = 8 ; 

            → <u>AND:</u>  "8" is being <u>SUBTRACTED</u> from "27" ; 

            →  (hence, the "difference of squares" polynomial identity); 

So:  given:     " 19 = 27  − 8 " ; 

→  Rewrite as:

        " 19 =  3³  − 2³ " ; 
_______________________________________________________
Now, consider the identity equation for the "difference of squares":

                          →   " a³ − b³ = (a − b)(a² + ab + b²) "  ; 
_______________________________________________________

Take:  " 19  =  3³  − 2³ " ; 

and rewrite as:  

→  3³  −  2³  = 19 ; 

So:   (a³ − b³) = 3³  −  2³ ; 

a = 3 ;  b = 2 ; 
___________________________________________________________
Plug in these values:

 " a³ − b³ = (a − b)(a² + ab + b²) " ; 

→   3³ − 2³  ≟  [3 − 2) [ 3² + (3*2) + 2² ]  ≟  19 ?  ; 

→  27 − 8   ≟  (1) (9 + 6 + 4) ≟  19 ?  ; 

→     19      ≟     (1) (15 + 4)   ≟  19 ?  ; 

→       19    ≟         (1) (19)     ≟  19 ?  ; 

→         19  ≟                19      ≟    19 ? ; 

→          19  =   19   =  19 !  Yes!
