Martin throws a ball straight up in the air. the equation h(t) = -16t^2 + 40t + 5 gives the height of the ball, in feet, t secon

Lisa [10]

Answer:

2.62 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t ----> the time in seconds

h(t) ----> he height of the ball, in feet

we have

$h(t)=-16t^2+40t+5$

we know that

When the ball hits the ground, the height is equal to zero

$-16t^2+40t+5=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$at^{2} +bt+c=0$

is equal to

$t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-16t^2+40t+5=0$

$a=-16\\b=40\\c=5$

substitute in the formula

$t=\frac{-40\pm\sqrt{40^{2}-4(-16)(5)}} {2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{-40\pm\sqrt{1,920}} {-32}$

$t=\frac{-40+\sqrt{1,920}} {-32}=-0.12\ sec$

$t=\frac{-40-\sqrt{1,920}} {-32}=2.62\ sec$

therefore

The solution is t=2.62 seconds

Given you or a person holding a kite string 100 feet long write and draw what the height or altitude the kite is off the ground

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: $75.47\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

String of the kite is $l=100\ ft$

Angle of elevation $\theta=49^{\circ}$

suppose altitude of the kite is h

from the figure, we can write

$\Rightarrow \sin 49^{\circ}=\dfrac{h}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow h=100\sin 49^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow h=75.47\ ft$

Thus, the altitude of the kite is $75.47\ ft$

Solve for x !!!!!!!!

xeze [42]

Answer:

D) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

By remote interior angle property if a triangle, we have:

19x° + (18x - 4)° = 144°

(18x - 4 + 19x)° = 144°

(37x - 4)° = 144°

37x - 4 = 144

37x = 144 + 4

37x = 148

x = 148/37

x = 4
