In science class the students were asked to create a container to hold an egg. They would then drop the container from a window

that is 25 feet above the ground. If the equation of the containers pathway can be modeled by the equation h=-16t+25 how long will it take the container to reach the ground

Answer:

It will take 1.25 seconds to reach the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the containers pathway can be modeled by the equation given below :

$h=-16t^2+25$

t is time in seconds

It is required to find the time taken by the container to reach the ground. When it reached ground, its height is equal to 0 such that,

$h=0\\\\-16t^2+25=0$

$-16t^2=25\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{25}{16}} \\\\t=1.25\ s$

So, it will take 1.25 seconds to reach the ground.

guajiro [1.7K]

The given function is,

$y=-5\cos (\frac{\pi}{2}(x-3))+6$

The graph can be drawn as,

The period will be distance between two consequetive maximas,

$\text{Period}=1-(-3)=4$

Thus, period is correct.

The amplitude can be determined as,

$\begin{gathered} Amplitude=\frac{\max -\min }{2} \\ =\frac{11-1}{2} \\ =5 \end{gathered}$

Thus, amplitue is incorrect.

The range is,

$y\in\lbrack1,11\rbrack$

Thus, the range is correct.

The midline is,

$\begin{gathered} \text{midline}=\frac{\max +\min }{2} \\ =\frac{1+11}{2} \\ =6 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the midline is correct.

Thus, option (b) is the solution.

erica [24]

Here, number of bulletin board = 1
Artwork = 2/5 th, & math papers = 1/5

So, it would be: 1/5 + 2/5 = 3/5

In short, Your Answer would be 3/5 or 0.60

Hope this helps!

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what is the positive solution to the quadratic equation 0 = 2x2 + 3x – 8? Quadratic formula: x

OleMash [197]

ANSWER

$x=1.39$ to the nearest hundredth.

EXPLANATION

We have the equation,

$0=2x^2+3x-8$

Which can be rewritten as

$2x^2+3x-8=0$

The question demands the use of the quadratic formula.

Comparing this to the general quadratic equation;

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

$a=2,b=3,c=-8$

The quadratic formula is given by;

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

We now substitute all the values in to the formula;

$x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{(3)^2-4(2)(-8)}}{2(2)}$

We simplify to obtain;

$x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{9+64}}{4}$

$x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{73}}{4}$

We now split the plus or minus sign to obtain;

$x=\frac{-3-\sqrt{73}}{4}$

This implies that;

$x=-2.89$

Or

$x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{73}}{4}$

This will evaluate to;

$x=1.39$

Hence, the positive solution rounded to the nearest hundredth is

$x \approx 1.39$
