I was never sure of what the "additive inverse" is.
So, just now, just for you, I went and looked it up.
The additive inverse of any number ' A ' is the number
that you need to ADD to A to get zero. That's all !
So now, let's check out the choices:
a), 6, -(-6)
That second number, -(-6), is the same as +6 .
So the two numbers are the same.
Do you get zero when you add them up ? No.
b). -7, 7
What do you get when you add -7 and 7 ?
You get zero.
So these ARE additive inverses.
c). -7, -7
What do you get when you add -7 to -7 ?
You get -14 . That's not zero, so these
are NOT additive inverses.
d). 7, 7
What do you get when you add 7 to 7 ?
You get 14. That's NOT zero, so these
are NOT additive inverses.
e). 6, -6
What do you get when you add 6 to -6 ?
You get zero.
So these ARE additive inverses.
What do we end up with from the list of choices:
a)., c)., and d). are NOT additive inverses.
b). and e). ARE additive inverses.
The answer is C because it equals 9
Answer:
- t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground.
Explanation:
<u>1) Explanation of the model:</u>
- Given: h(t) = -16t² + 48t
- This is a quadratic function, so the height is modeled by a patabola.
- This means that it has a vertex which is the minimum or maximu, height. Since the coefficient of the leading (quadratic) term is negative, the parabola opens downward and the vertex is the maximum height of the soccer ball.
<u>2) Axis of symmetry:</u>
- The axis of symmetry of a parabola is the vertical line that passes through the vertex.
- In the general form of the parabola, ax² + bx + c, the axis of symmetry is given by x = -b/(2a)
- In our model a = - 16, and b = 48, so you get: t = - ( 48) / ( 2 × (-16) ) = 1.5
<u>Conclusion</u>: since t = 1.5 is the axys of symmetry, it means that at t = 1.5 the ball reachs its maximum height and that it will take the same additional time to fall back to the ground, whic is a tolal of 1. 5 s + 1.5 s = 3.0 s.
Answer: t = 1.5; it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 3 seconds to fall back to the ground.
Answer:
The answer is e
Step-by-step explanation:
101.28-96 = 5.28
5.28/96 = 0.055
0.055 x 100% = 5.5%
