Answer:

14 : 21

Step-by-step explanation:

---> 2:3 ----> 2+3=5

---> Stick's length = 35 inches

<u />

<u>For the first portion</u>

2/5 x 35

2/1 x 7

= 14 inches

<u>For the second portion</u>

3/5 x 35

3/1 x 7

= 21 inches

To confirm: 14 + 21 = 35 inches

14 : 21

Divide both by 7

2 : 3

A player shoots a basketball from a height of 6 feet. The equation, h = -16t^2 + 25t + 6, gives the height, h , of the basketbal
noname [10]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 7.5 \ feet}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given this function for the height (h) after t seconds:

h=-16t^2+25t+6

Seconds is t and we want to find the height after 1.5 seconds. Plug 1.5 in for t.

h= -16(1.5)^2+25(1.5)+6

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Solve the exponent first.

  • (1.5)²= 1.5*1.5=2.25

h= -16(2.25)+25(1.5)+6

Multiply.

h= -36+25(1.5)+6

h= -36+37.5+6

Add.

h=1.5+6=7.5

This is already rounded to the nearest tenth, so it is the answer.

After 1.5 seconds, the basketball is at a height of 7.5 feet.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

n=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

2(n+5)=-2

distribute

2(n+5)

2xn 2x5

2n+10

2n+10=-2

subtract 10 from both sides

10-10=0

-2-10=-12

2n=-12

divide each side by 2

2n/2=n

-12/2=-6

n=-6
