Answer:

Therefore,

3.5 s long was the rocket in the air.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A rocket is launched from the ground.

Height function for Rocket is given as

y=-16x^{2}+56x

Where,

y = height in function with x as time in second

To Find:

How long is the rocket in the air, x =?

Solution:

Expression is given

y=-16x^{2}+56x

So for time in air put y = 0 in above Expression

0=-16x^{2}+56x

16x^{2}-56x=0\\16x(x-3.5)=0\\16x=0\ or\ x-3.5 = 0\\x=0\ or\ x= 3.5

x cannot be negative

∴ x = 3.5 sec.

Therefore,

3.5 s long was the rocket in the air.

Whats the difference of the two expression? (3/7x+9)-(2/7x-3)
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
\left(\frac{3}{7}x+9\right)-\left(\frac{2}{7}x-3\right)\\\\=\frac{3}{7}x+9-\frac{2}{7}x-(-3)\\\\=\frac{3}{7}x+9-\frac{2}{7}x+3\\\\=(\frac{3}{7}x-\frac{2}{7}x)+(9+3)\\\\=\frac{3-2}{7}x+12\\\\=\boxed{\frac{1}{7}x+12}

Easy question<br><br> Topic: Volume<br><br> Use the other attachment to help u what formula is it
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

V = l*w*h for the rectangular  tank

V = 70* 40*40

  =112000 cm^3 = 1mL

The water is 84000

Make this a fraction

84000/112000  = 3/4

The water fills 3/4 of the tank

1-3/4 = 1/4

It is 1/4 from the top

Find the volume of the treasure chest

V = 12*10*8 =960

Tower

V = pi r^2

  3.14 * 10^2 *10

  =3140

Water + chest + tower

84000+960+3140 =88100

This is less than 112000 so the water will not overflow
