Jason's airplane flew the farthest. When you find a common denominator for all the fractions, 8 2/3 is the largest,
Sara = 8 6/12
Jason = 8 8/12,
Michael = 8 3/12,
Denise = 8 2/12,

SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Given that <span>Jack rakes the yard in 5 hours and Jill rakes the yeard in 8 hours. Let the amount of time that it takes them to rake the yard together be t, then:

\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{8}  \\  \\ = \frac{8+5}{40} = \frac{13}{40}  \\  \\ \therefore t= \frac{40}{13} =3 \frac{1}{13}\ hours</span>

From 1960 to 2010, a certain money stock measure was growing at the rate of approximately 43e(1/2)x billion dollars per decade,
natulia [17]

Answer:

1222 billion dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total increase from 1960 to 2010, we need to find the growth of each decade and sum them all:

In the period 1960-1970, we have x = 1, and the growth is:

y(1) = 43e(1/2) = 70.895

In the period 1970-1980, we have x = 2, and the growth is:

y(2) = 43e(2/2) = 116.8861

The growth in the following 3 periods are:

y(3) = 43e(3/2) =192.7126

y(4) = 43e(4/2) = 317.7294

y(5) = 43e(5/2) =523.8472

So the total growth in the period 1960 - 2010 is:

Total = y(1) + y(2) + y(3) + y(4) + y(5)

Total = 70.895 + 116.8861+192.726+317.7294+523.8472

Total = 1222.08\ billion\ dollars

Rounding to the nearest billion dollars, we have a total of 1222 billion dollars.

Pierre throws a snowball up in the
erastovalidia [21]

Using the given function, it is found that the snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.

<h3>What is the function for the ball's height?</h3>

The height when x feet are traveled is given by:

h(x) = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.

When the height is of 20 meters, we have that h(x) = 20, hence:

20 = -0.5x² + 6x + 4.

0.5x² - 6x + 16 = 0

x² - 12x + 32 = 0

(x - 8)(x - 4) = 0

For the first time: x - 4 = 0 -> x = 4.

The snowball traveled 4 feet when the height is 20 feet.
