Answer:

Step 1: Make a fraction with the decimal number as the numerator (top number) and a 1 as the denominator (bottom number).

Step 2: Remove the decimal places by multiplication. First, count how many places are to the right of the decimal. Next, given that you have x decimal places, multiply numerator and denominator by 10x.

Step 3: Reduce the fraction. Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF.

Step 4: Simplify the remaining fraction to a mixed number fraction if possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height, h, in feet of a rock above the ground is given by the equation h = -16t^2 + 24t + 16, where t is the time in seconds

boyakko [2]

The rock will hit the ground at 2 seconds.

Explanation:

Given that the height, h, in feet of a rock above the ground is given by the equation $h=-16t^2+24t+16$ , where t is the time in seconds after the rock is thrown.

We need to determine the time at which the rock will hit the ground.

To determine the time, let us equate the height h = 0 in the equation $h=-16t^2+24t+16$ , we get,

$0=-16t^2+24t+16$

Switch sides, we have,

$-16 t^{2}+24 t+16=0$

Let us solve the equation using the quadratic formula.

Thus, we have,

$t=\frac{-24 \pm \sqrt{24^{2}-4(-16) 16}}{2(-16)}$

Simplifying, we get,

$t=\frac{-24 \pm \sqrt{576+1024}}{-32}$

$t=\frac{-24 \pm \sqrt{1600}}{-32}$

$t=\frac{-24 \pm 40}{-32}$

Hence, the two values of t are

$t=\frac{-24 + 40}{-32}$ and $t=\frac{-24 -40}{-32}$

Simplifying the values, we get,

$t=\frac{16}{-32}$ and $t=\frac{-64}{-32}$

Dividing, we get,

$t=-\frac{1}{2}$ and $t=2$

Since, t cannot negative values, we have,

$t=2$

Thus, the rock will hit the ground at 2 seconds.

Determine the equation of the line passing through the points <br> (4,-1) and (-2,-4)

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

y = 1/2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope:

$m=\frac{-4-(-1)}{-2-4} =\frac{-4+1}{-6} =\frac{-3}{-6} =\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}$

the equation:

with the point (4, -1)

$y-(-1)=\frac{1}{2} (x-4)$

$y+1=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

$y=\frac{1}{2} x-2-1$

$y=\frac{1}{2} x-3$

I hope this help you
