You forgot the 1/2 Inches in that,
but the answer is 45 feet.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x/9 = 12/18
18x = 108
x = 6
Answer:
30 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate distance traveled, you multiply the miles per hour by the number of miles. In this problem, it is 20 times 1.5 or 20 times 1 1/2. This equals 30 miles per hour.
It is given that z varies directly with x and inversely with the square of y so it follows:

It is also given that z=18 when x=6 and y=2 so it follows:

So the equation of variation becomes:

Therefore the value of z when x=7 and y=7 is given by:

Hence the value of z is 12/7 or 1.7143.
It's asking how far horizontally from the starting point which means that y, the height in meters is 0.
set 0 = -0.06x^2 + 10.1x + 5 and solve for x using the quadratic formula
-b +-

/ 2a
-10.1 +-

/ 2(-0.06)
you get that x = 168.83 m and -0.49 meters. Since the horizontal distance cant be negative, 168.83m is your answer
