Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given</em><em>, </em>

<em>a</em><em> </em><em>student</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>Charles</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>bought</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>car</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>sold</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>%</em><em> </em><em>profit</em><em> </em><em>for</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>4</em><em>6</em><em>6</em><em>9</em><em>.</em>

<em>we</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>formula</em><em>, </em>

<em>cp =  \frac{sp \times 100}{100 + p\%}</em>

<em>so</em><em>,</em><em> </em>

<em>cp =  \frac{4669 \times 100}{100 + 15}</em>

<em>by</em><em> </em><em>simplifying</em><em> </em><em>it we</em><em> </em><em>get</em><em>, </em>

<em>CP</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>.</em>

<em>Therefore</em><em>, </em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>cp</em><em> </em><em>was</em><em> </em><em>$</em><em>4</em><em>0</em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>.</em>

<em><u>Hope</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>it</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>helps</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

Leokris [45]

Answer:

V0 = 48 feet per second is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function which represents height of a golf ball in feet after x seconds after a player hits it.

y = -16x² + v0x

here v0 is the initial velocity and we have to calculate initial velocity. The ball returns to the ground 3 seconds after it is hit.

After 3 seconds height of the ball will be 0.

Now from the given function

0 = -16(3)² + v0×3

3v = 16×9

v0 = 16×9/3 = 48 feet per second.
