Hey there! I"m happy to help!
We see that 1 inch is equal to 5.6 miles for this scale factor. If we have three inches, we simply multiply 5.6 by 3 to figure out how many miles this is!
5.6(3)=16.8
Therefore, Janet's home is 16.8 miles from her office.
Have a wonderful day! :D
I believe your answer is 6 seconds.
Because the height of the ball = -16(x² - 5x - 6), when the height of the ball is 0, which is when it is on the ground, we can set -16(x² - 5x - 6) equal to 0. This also allows us to divide by -16, and then we can solve the equation:
x² - 5x - 6 = 0
(x - 6)(x + 1) = 0
So x = 6 or x = -1, and because a quantity of time cannot be negative, x would have to be 6, which means it takes 6 seconds for the ball to reach 0 feet.
I hope this helps!
if the diameter is 20, the its radius must be half that or 10.
