Answer:

3.35 s after the rock is thrown, it will be 12 m above the water

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The height of the rock can be calculated using the following equation:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

y = height of the rock at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

Let´s place the origin of the frame of reference on the water so that y0 = 20 m.

Using the equation of height, we can obtain the time at which the rock is at a height of 12 m above the water:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

12 m = 20 m + 14 m/s · t + 1/2 · (-9.8 m/s²) · t²

subtract 12 to both sides of the equation:

0 = -12 + 20 m + 14 m/s · t - 4.9 m/s² · t²

0 = 8 m + 14 m/s · t - 4.9 m/s² · t²

Let´s solve the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula:

a = -4.9

b = 14

c = 8

t = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)] / 2a

t = 3.35 s and t = -0.49 s

Since time can´t be negative, the rock will be 12 m above the water 3.35 s   after it is thrown.

skad [1K]

Answer: 278.18

sorry if it's wrong

Step-by-step explanation: if you divide 255 by 11 you get 23.18181818181

so if you simplify you get 23.18 so that is the tax plus the original payment which is 278.18

What's 4+ -1 1/3 as a fraction in simplest form
Ivenika [448]
4 + -1 1/3 

Turn 4 into an improper fraction.

4/4 is equal to 12/3. We want both 4 and 1 1/3 to have the same denominator so that they could be subtracted from each other.

New question :

12/3 + - 1 1/3

Turn {-1 1/3} into an improper fraction.

(3 × 1) + 1  = 4/3

So, -1 1/3 = -4/3

Our new question :

12/3 + - 4/3

Simplify.

12/3 - 4/3 = 8/3

Turn into a mixed number.

2 2/3

~Hope I helped!~
