This is a working backwards problem.  You know he has $35 at the end.  Before he gave his brother $5, he would have $40, which is half of what he had before he bought the clothes, so he would have had $80.  Before he spent the $40 on shoes, he would have had $120, so the answer is $120.

A golf ball is hit off a tee toward the green. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = −16t2 + 96t, where t equ
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

t = 3; It takes the ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the axis of symmetry, we need to find the vertex by turning this equation into vertex form (this is y = a(x - c)² + d where (c, d) is the vertex). To do this, we can use the "completing the square" strategy.

h(t) = -16t² + 96t

= -16(t² - 6t)

= -16(t² - 6t + 9) - (-16) * 9

= -16(t - 3)² + 144

Therefore, we know that the vertex is (3, 144) so the axis of symmetry is t = 3. Since the coefficient of the squared term, -16, is negative, it means that the vertex is the maximum. We know that it takes the golf ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height (since the t value of the vertex is 3) and because the vertex is on the axis of symmetry, it would take 3 more seconds for the ball to fall to the ground, therefore it takes 3 + 3 = 6 seconds to fall to the ground. The final answer is "t = 3; It takes the ball 3 seconds to reach the maximum height and 6 seconds to fall back to the ground.".

What is 520 divided by 8
erastova [34]
First see how many times can 8 go into 52. So 8 goes 6 times, and it equals to; 48
Now subtract 48 from 52; 52-48= 4

Finally bring down the 0 next to the 4; 40

Now to get you final answer find out how many times can 8 go into 40; 5
Since it goes exactly 5 times then your final answer would be; 65
Hope this helps! :)

Kelly has a rock garden with a length of 6 feet. She constructs a scale model of the rock garden using the
Annette [7]

Answer:

  • (a) 3 inches

  • (b)  Her scale model drawing will not fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches because the dimensions are not proportional to the scale.

Explanation:

(a) What is the length of the garden in her model? Show your work, including your proportion

<u>1. Scale</u>:

  • model length / real length = 1 inch / 2 feet

<u>2. Proportion</u>:

Naming x the model length:

  • 1 inch / 2 feet = x / 6 feet

Cross multiply:

  • 1 inch × 6 feet = 2 feet × x

Divide both sides by x:

  • x = 1 inch × 6 feet / 2 feet = 3 inch.

Answer: 3 inches

(b) If the width is 5 inches for the scale model and the scale is still 1 inch to 2 feet, will her scale model drawing fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches? Why or why not?​

Both the width and the length must use the same scale, thus the corresponding sides of the scale model and the drawing must be proportional.

In the model the ratio of the length to the width is 3 inch / 5 inch

In the paper the ratio of the length to the width is 8.5 inch / 7 inch

Hence, you can see that in the model the length (mumerator of the fraction) is less than the width (denominator) while in the paper it is the opposite. Bieng the two ratios different, they are not proportional, and you conclude that her scale model drawing will not fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches.
