Answer:

t = sqrt(500/4.9) =~ 10.1 seconds/ Answer: 10.1015 seconds (this is approximate)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use 4.9t^2 + v0t = s

a) A bolt falls off an airplane at an altitude of 500 m. Approximately how long does it take the bolt to reach the ground?

s = 4.9t^2 + v0t = 500

4.9t^2 = 500

t = sqrt(500/4.9) =~ 10.1 seconds

Part A)

v = initial velocity = 0

s = 500 = vertical distance the object travels (from plane to ground)

Plug in the given values and solve for t

4.9t^2 + v*t = s

4.9t^2 + 0*t = 500

4.9t^2 + 0 = 500

4.9t^2 = 500

t^2 = 500/4.9

t^2 = 102.04081632653

t = sqrt(102.04081632653)

t = 10.101525445522

t = 10.1015

Answer: 10.1015 seconds (this is approximate)

Theo and Kade worked on a school project together. Theo worked on the project 3 fewer hours than Kade did. Altogether, they work

babunello [35]

Let the hours Kade worked = X

Theo would be X - 3 ( 3 less than Kade).

Now you have:

X + X -3 = 27

Combine like terms:

2x - 3 = 27

Add 3 to each side:

2x = 30

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 15

Kade worked 15 hours.

Theo worked 12 hours.

Enter the equations of the asymptotes for the function f(x).<br><br> f(x)= 3/x−7 + 2

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

x = 7, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume it is 3/(x-7) + 2.

When x = 7, there is an asymptote because it is undefined.

When y = 2, there is also one, because 3/(x-7) is never 0.

These are the only ones.

F(x) = -4x + 15 g(x) = 7x^3 Find (f-g)(2)

djyliett [7]

$(f-g)(2)=f(2)-g(2)$

Therefore, find f(2) and g(2) first before subtracting.

$f(x)=-4x+15$

Therefore,

$f(2)=-4(2)+15\\f(2)=-8+15\\f(2)=7$

Then find g(2)

$g(x)=7x^3\\g(2)=7(2)^3\\g(2)=7(8)\\g(2)=56$

Then put f(2) to subtract g(2)

$f(2)-g(2)=7-56\\f(2)-g(2)=-49$

Therefore, the answer is (f-g)(2) = -49.

What is the greatest common factor of the numerator of ?

Annette [7]

The greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator of the rational expression is x - 4

<h3>How to determine the greatest common factor?</h3>

The fraction expression is given as:

$\frac{5x-20}{x^2-2x-8}$

Factorize the numerator and the denominator

$\frac{5x-20}{x^2-2x-8} = \frac{5(x-4)}{(x- 4)(x + 2)}$

Cancel out the common factor

$\frac{5x-20}{x^2-2x-8} = \frac{5}{(x + 2)}$

The common factor that was canceled out is x - 4

Hence, the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator of the rational expression is x - 4
