Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

time taken to reach the max height is expressed according to the projectile equation;

tmax = u/g

Given u = 30m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81

t = 30/9.81

t = 3.0secs

hence it will take the flare 3.06secs to reach its maximum height.

Max height = u²/2g

Max height = 30²/2(9.81)

Max height = 900/19.62

Max height = 45.87m

If the people set off an emergency flare from a height of 2 meters above the water, the total height will be 45.87 + 2 = 47.87m

Ellen read a book a day for 10 weeks. How many books did<br> she read in all?
a_sh-v [17]

1 week = 7 days

10 weeks = 10×7 days

= 70 days

if Ellen reads 1 book in a day

Therefore,

1 day = 1 book

70 days = 70×1

= 70 books.

Thus Ellen reads 70 books in 10 weeks.

Hope helps

How do i solve X+1/2x=5-1/5x
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+1/2x=5-1/5x

combine like terms on left side

3/2x=5-1/5x

add 1/5x on both sides

17/10x=5

multiply by 10 on both sides to get rid of fraction

17x=50

divide 17 on both sides witch leaves

x=50/17
