Solution:

we are given that

A student has some​ $1 and​ $5 bills in his wallet.

Let there x $1 bills and y number of $5 bills.

He has a total of 14 bills that are worth ​$34.

So we can write

x+y=14

x+5y=34

Now solve these two equations together using substitution as follows

14-y+5y=34\\
\\
4y=34-14\\
\\
4y=20\\
\\
y=5\\
\\
x=14-y=14-5=9\\

Hence there are 9 $1 bills and 5 bills are of $5.

2) 9.38/7= $1.34

3) 6/11= 0.54545454545455

4) 1/4= 0.25

   2/9= 0.22222222222

   3/10= 0.30

   2/1= 2.00

   1/5= 0.20

   least to greatest- 1/5, 2/9, 1/4, 3/10, 2/1

5) 9/15= 0.6 > 60%

    to turn into a percent, move 2 decimal places!

6) 10/4= 2.5

    2.5x18= 45

7) 2/3= 0.66666666666

   0.66666666666x7= 4.66666666667

A rock falls off a balcony. It's height (in feet) is given by the formula f(x)=-16t^2+13.4t+120, where t is measured in seconds.
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

  3.189 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You want f(t) = 0, so ...

  0 = -16t^2 +13.4t +120

  0 = t^2 -0.8375t -7.5 . . . . divide by -16

  0 = (t^2 -0.8375t +0.41875^2) -7.5 -0.41875^2 . . . . complete the square*

  0 = (t -0.41875)^2 -7.6753515625 . . . . write as a square

  √7.6753515625 = t -0.41875 . . . . . . . . add 7.67... and take positive root

  t = 0.41875 +√7.6753515625 ≈ 3.189192 . . . . add 0.41875

It will take the rock about 3.189 seconds to hit the ground.

_____

* We complete the square by adding the square of half the coefficient of the linear term (= (-0.8375/2)^2) inside parentheses and subtracting the same amount outside parentheses. This gives a form inside parentheses that is ...

  (t^2 -2at +a^2) = (t -a)^2

Completing the square is complicated a little bit by a leading coefficient that is not 1. That is why we divided by -16 first.

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

We note that the rock "falls" from the 120 foot high balcony by first traveling upward at a rate of 13.4 feet per second. We also note that the height function is written f(x), but uses t as the variable. That is, it should be f(t) = ...
