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

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average weekly pay for a U.S. production worker was $441.84 in 1998 (The World
Oksanka [162]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that a production worker has to make $542.64 a week to be in the top 30% of wage earners.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

In a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

  • The mean is of \mu = 441.84.
  • The standard deviation is of \sigma = 120.
  • The lower bound of the top 30% is the 70th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.7, so <u>X when Z = 0.84.</u>

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

0.84 = \frac{X - 441.84}{120}

X - 441.84 = 0.84(120)

X = 542.64

A production worker has to make $542.64 a week to be in the top 30% of wage earners.

Emery borrowed money from her brother to buy a new phone, and is paying off a fixed amount each week. After 2 weeks, she will ow
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: A. The original price was $608. B. $76 each week C. Quite useful, as it keeps track of the amount of money she still needs to owe each week.

Step-by-step explanation: For part A, 5 week subtracted by 2 weeks is 3 weeks. 456-228 is 228. Then divide 228 by 3 and you get $76. Then do 2x76 to get 152 and add it to 456, and you get 608.

F⃗ (x,y)=−yi⃗ +xj⃗ f→(x,y)=−yi→+xj→ and cc is the line segment from point p=(5,0)p=(5,0) to q=(0,2)q=(0,2). (a) find a vector pa
DerKrebs [107]

a. Parameterize C by

\vec r(t)=(1-t)(5\,\vec\imath)+t(2\,\vec\jmath)=(5-5t)\,\vec\imath+2t\,\vec\jmath

with 0\le t\le1.

b/c. The line integral of \vec F(x,y)=-y\,\vec\imath+x\,\vec\jmath over C is

\displaystyle\int_C\vec F(x,y)\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\int_0^1\vec F(x(t),y(t))\cdot\frac{\mathrm d\vec r(t)}{\mathrm dt}\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\int_0^1(-2t\,\vec\imath+(5-5t)\,\vec\jmath)\cdot(-5\,\vec\imath+2\,\vec\jmath)\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\int_0^1(10t+(10-10t))\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle10\int_0^1\mathrm dt=\boxed{10}

d. Notice that we can write the line integral as

\displaystyle\int_C\vecF\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\int_C(-y\,\mathrm dx+x\,\mathrm dy)

By Green's theorem, the line integral is equivalent to

\displaystyle\iint_D\left(\frac{\partial x}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial(-y)}{\partial y}\right)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=2\iint_D\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy

where D is the triangle bounded by C, and this integral is simply twice the area of D. D is a right triangle with legs 2 and 5, so its area is 5 and the integral's value is 10.

While on vacation in Europe you notice that a tablet computer is selling for 600 euros in France and for 533 pounds in Britain.
serg [7]

The cost of the tablet computer is less in France. It is $8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost in France = 600 euros

75 euros = 1 dollar

600 euros = 600/75 dollars

=$ 8

Cost in Britain = 533 pounds

65 pounds = 1 dollar

533 pounds = 533/65 dollars

= $8.2

The cost of the tablet computer is less in France. It is $8.
