Answer:

-5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-54/8  

-5 first just put the whole number because that won't change

4/8 simplified is 1/2

1/2 as a decimal is 0.5

your answer is -5.5

What is p equal to? Also if you could, can you tell me how you do it so I can do the rest by myself.
svp [43]

Answer:

p=-54

Step-by-step explanation:

- \frac{p}{6}  = 9 \\  \frac{ - p}{6}  = 9 \\ \frac{ - p}{6}  \times 6 = 9 \times 6 \\  - p = 54 \\ p =  - 54

A rocket is launched from a tower what time will the rocket reach its max
Lena [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A science class designed a ball launcher and tested it by shooting a tennis ball up and off the top of a 15-story building. They determined that the motion of the ball could be described by the function: h(t) = -16t2 + 144t + 160, where ‘t’ represents the time the ball is in the air in seconds and h(t) represents the height, in feet, of the ball above the ground at time t.

a) Graph the function h(t) = -16t2 + 144t + 160 (see below)

      b) What is the height of the building?

The height of the building is also the height of the tennis ball before it is launched into the air. This occurs when t=0 so substitute 0 for t and you get:

H(0) = -16(0)2 + 144(0) + 160

The height of the building is 160 feet.

 c) At what time did the ball hit the ground?

The ball hits the ground when the height is 0. Therefore, we are looking for a solution to: -16t2 + 144t + 160 = 0

Use the quadratic formula or put this into a calculator. The solution is t=10 and -1, but only 10 makes sense. Therefore, the ball hits the ground at 10 seconds.

  d) At what time did the ball reach its maximum height?

You can put this into the calculator or you can realize that the maximum height is also

− the vertex. The x-value (‘t’ in this case) is 2

−144

which is (2)(−16) = 4.5.

Therefore, the ball reached its maximum height at 4.5 seconds.

   e) What is the maximum height of the ball?

We calculated the time of the maximum height (4.5 seconds). Therefore, substitute 4.5 into the function to find the maximum height.

-16(4.5)2 + 144(4.5) + 160

The maximum height is 484 feet.

A university is building a new student center that is two- thirds the distance from the arts center to the residential complex.
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

C = (\frac{21}{5},\frac{33}{5})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points: (1, 9) and (9, 3)

Ratio = 2/3

Required

Determine the coordinate of the center

Represent the ratio as ratio

Ratio = 2:3

The new coordinate can be calculated using

C = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{n + m},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{n + m})

Where

(x_1,y_1) = (1, 9)

(x_2, y_2) = (9, 3)

m:n = 2:3

Substitute these values in the equation above

C = (\frac{2 * 9 + 3 * 1}{3 + 2},\frac{2 * 3 + 3 * 9}{2 + 3})

C = (\frac{18 + 3}{5},\frac{6 + 27}{5})

C = (\frac{21}{5},\frac{33}{5})

Hence;

<em>The coordinates of the new center is </em>C = (\frac{21}{5},\frac{33}{5})<em></em>

Find the radius of a circle with a circumference of 96 feeer
Gnesinka [82]
The formula for circumference is C = 2πr.

The question gives you the circumference (C in the formula), and you need to find the radius (r in the formula). Begin by isolating r in the circumference formula.

C = 2πr
C/2π = r
r = C/2π

Now you can plug 96 for C and solve to find r.

r = C/2π
r = 96/2π
r ≈ 96/6.28
r ≈ 15.29

Answer:
The radius of a circle with a circumference of 96 feet is approximately 15.29 feet.
