A skydiver jumps from an airplane at an altitude of 2,500 ft. He falls under the force of gravity until he opens his parachute a

t an altitude of 1,000 ft. Approximately how long does the jumper fall before he opens his chute? For this quadratic model we will let the y-axis be the axis of symmetry.

Answer:

9.7 seconds to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

He falls for a distance of 1,500 ft.

We use the equation of motion  s = 1/2 * 32 * t^2   where s = distance and t = time.

1500 = 16 * t^2

t^2  = 93.75

t =  9.7 seconds answer.

Answer:

9.7

Step-by-step explanation:

minus 1,000 ft (the height he opened his parachute) from 2,500 (the height of which he started)

This will give you the distance of his fall

1,500 ft.

Then, use the equation of motion which is s = 1/2 * 32 * t^2  

where s represents distance and t is time

1500 = 16 * t^2

t^2  = 93.75

Then simply round to the nearest tenth and it will be on the test :)

I really just ignored the equation it gives to solve it sorry.

Best answer gets brainliest!<br><br> What are some equivalent expressions of 6(m + 2 + 7m)?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equivalent expression, we can combine like terms. So m +7m is 8 and we get 6(8m+2).

Here are a few others:

48m+12

6(m+m+m+m+m+m+m+m+2)

3(16m+4)

6m+12+42m

6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+6m+2

and the list goes on...

Who can help me with these questions
damaskus [11]
#15(A)
First Bike
$380 - $190 ($380 * 0.50) = $190

2nd Bike
$380 - $114 ( $380 * 0.30) = $266
$266 - $53.20 ($266 * 0.20) = $212.80

#15 (B)
Eliza should buy the first bike because it is cheaper. $190 < $212.80

#16
$57 + $28.50 ($57 * .50) = $85.50

Which of the following rotational symmetry is applied to the regular not​
olya-2409 [2.1K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • yes
  • yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular nonagon has vertices that are 360°/9 = 40° apart. Any rotation by a multiple of 40° will make the figure indistinguishable from the original.

Rotational symmetry of 40° applies.

Rotational symmetry of 200° applies.

What dose this equal 2(6x-4)=3(6x+2)
AveGali [126]

Answer:

-7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(6−4)=3(6+2)

2(6x-4)=3(6x+2)

Solve

1

Distribute

2(6−4)=3(6+2)

{\color{#c92786}{2(6x-4)}}=3(6x+2)

12−8=3(6+2)

{\color{#c92786}{12x-8}}=3(6x+2)

2

Distribute

12−8=3(6+2)

12x-8={\color{#c92786}{3(6x+2)}}

12−8=18+6

12x-8={\color{#c92786}{18x+6}}

3

Add

8

8

to both sides of the equation

12−8=18+6

12x-8=18x+6

12−8+8=18+6+8

12x-8+{\color{#c92786}{8}}=18x+6+{\color{#c92786}{8}}
