Answer:
<em>t = 3 seconds</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation, as a function of time, that describes the height of the object that is dropped from the bridge.
The equation is:
Where t is the time in seconds and h is the height in feet.
To know how long it takes the object to fall to the ground we do h (t) = 0 and solve for t.
So:
We take the positive solution.
Therefore the object takes 3 seconds to reach the ground
Answer:
i. No, Maurice statement is wrong.
ii. Stephan does not have sufficient pieces of wood to make the tray because the square inches required is more than what he has.
Step-by-step explanation:
Stephan's piece of wood measures; 18 inches in length and 12 inches in width.
Since the piece of wood has a shape of a rectangle,
the area of the piece of wood = length × width
= 18 × 12
= 216 square inches
According to Maurice's statement, he could make a tray that has a base of 1012 inches by 1012 inches.
The base has the shape of a square, so that;
the area of the base = length × width =
= 1012 ×1012
= 1024144 squared inches
This shows that Stephan does not have sufficient wood to make the tray because the square inches required is more than what he has.
