Answer:

The volleyball travel high enough to clear the top of the net.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a volleyball, h, in feet, is given by h = −16t² + 11t + 5.5, where t is the number of seconds after it has been hit by a player.

Now, for h = 7.3 feet, we can write

7.3 = - 16t² + 11t + 5.5

⇒ 16t² - 11y + 1.8 = 0

Using the quadratic formula we get,

t = \frac{- (- 11) \pm \sqrt{(-11)^{2} - 4(16)(1.8)}}{2(16)}

⇒ t = \frac{11 \pm 2.4}{32}

⇒ t = 0.27 or t = 0.42

Therefore, for the two real positive values of t the volleyball travel high enough to clear the top of the net. (Answer)

A heated piece of metal cools according to the function c(x) = (.5)x − 11, where x is measured in hours. A device is added that

16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.

The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.

The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.

Express in simplest a+bi form: Square root of 1b + Square root of -1b
Nimfa-mama [501]

Express in simplest a+bi form: Square root of 1b + Square root of -1b

\sqrt{1b} + \sqrt{-1b}

Lets simplify \sqrt{-b}

We know \sqrt{-1} = i

\sqrt{-b} =i\sqrt{b)

We cannot simplify \sqrt{1b}

\sqrt{1b} + \sqrt{-1b}

\sqrt{1b} + i\sqrt{b}

So a + ib form is \sqrt{1b} + i\sqrt{b}

Answer:

It is so easy u should get this right.

First draw a circle and there is an arc that is like forming a triangle inside a circle and then ab angle is 100 degree and outside is the center of the circle. And since u try to find how much is outside it most likely means that 100-60=40

so it b 40.

The speed, s, of the current in a certain whirlpool is modeled by s=300/d, where d is the distance from the center of the whirlp
JulijaS [17]
For this case we have the following equation:
 s = 300 / d
 Where,
 s: the speed of the current in a certain whirlpool
 d: the distance from the center of the whirlpool
 We have then that:
 If the distance from the center of the whirpool is large, the speed is small.
 If the distance from the center of the whirlpool is very small, the speed tends to infinity
 Answer:
 
Large distance, small speed.
 
Short distance, speed tends to infinity.
