Answer:

9 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

The altitude of an object, d, can be modeled using the equation below:

d=-16t^2 +vt+h

from the edge of a 486 foot cliff, Peyton shot an arrow over the ocean with an initial upward velocity of 90 feet per second. In how many seconds will the arrow reach the water below?

Let

d ----> the altitude of an object in feet

t ---> the time in seconds

v ---> initial velocity in ft per second

h ---> initial height of an object in feet

we have

d=-16t^2 +vt+h

we  know that

When the arrow reach the water the value of d is equal to zero

we have

v=90\ ft/sec

h=486\ ft

d=0\ ft

substitute the values and solve for t

0=-16t^2 +(90)t+486

-16t^2+90t+486=0

Multiply by -1 both sides

16t^2-90t-486=0

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

a=16\\b=-90\\c=-486

substitute in the formula

t=\frac{90(+/-)\sqrt{-90^{2}-4(16)(-486)}}{2(16)}

t=\frac{90(+/-)\sqrt{39,204}}{32}

t=\frac{90(+/-)198}{32}

t_1=\frac{90(+)198}{32}=9\ sec

t_2=\frac{90(-)198}{32}=-3.375\ sec

the solution is t=9 sec

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Each of them spent $9.35 on meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob and his three friends ordered an individual pizza and a drink for $6.19.

Total cost of pizza and drink = 6.19 × 4

= $24.76  

They also ordered bread sticks for $4.25

Tax on the bill was = $2.39

Tip amount was = $1.50×4 = $6.0

So the total billed amount will be = 24.76 + 4.25 + 2.39 + 6

= $37.4

Since there were four persons including Jacob.

Therefore, each person spend on meal = \frac{37.40}{4}

= $9.35

Replace * with a monomial so that the trinomial may be represented by a square of a binomial:
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Since:

a^2-2ab+b^2 = (a-b)^2

and

a^2+2ab+b^2 = (a+b)^2

We need to find value of * which is 2ab

In your equation = \sqrt{6.25}  = 2.5 and \sqrt{1/4} = 0.5\\Now 2ab = 2 * 2.5 * 0.5\\ = 2.5\\\\\\* = 2.5ab
