Samantha threw an apple out of a window from the tenth floor of her apartment building.The equation y=-16t^2+120 can be used to

represent the fruits height above the ground, where t represents time, in seconds, after she threw the Apple. How long did it take the Apple to hit the ground?

If the apple is on the ground, then the height y is 0. To find t, just plug in 0 for y:
0=-16t^{2}+120
-120=-16t^{2}
t^{2} =7.5
t=2.74

So the answer is 2.74 seconds.

Note that taking the square root of 7.5, mathematically, gives you both 2.74 and -2.74. But because we know that time did not go backwards, only the positive value for t was considered.

Jully bought 3 slices of cheese pizza and 4 slices of pepperoni pizza for $18.00. Christian bought 3 slices of cheese pizza and
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

$2.00

Step-by-step explanation:

You can form an equation with these statements, x being the price of cheese pizza and y being the price of pepperoni. Making the equation,

3x+4y=18

3x+2y=12

Solving the equation,

3x+4y=18

6x+4y=24

-3x=-6

x=2

y=3

Solving another way,

2y=6

y=3

x=2

Therefore, the answer is $2.00

susan designed a circular pool with a diameter of 24 meters. what is the area of the bottom of the pool?
Gennadij [26K]
Diameter = 24 m

radius = diameter/2 = 24 m / 2 = 12 m

area = pi * r^2 = 3.14 * (12 m)^2 = 3.14 * 144 m^2 = 452.16 m^2

Triangle ABC IS an isosceles triangle AB=BC m
True [87]

Answer:

<em>The measure of angle A is 73°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Isosceles Triangles</u>

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with exactly two congruent sides. The angles the congruent sides form with the third side are also equal.

The triangle ABC is isosceles and AB congruent with BC. The angle at B measures 34°.

The other two angles are congruent, i.e. their measures are the same. Since the internal angles of a triangle sum 180°:

2*m\angle A=180^\circ - 34^\circ =146^\circ

Thus:

m\angle A=146^\circ /2=73^\circ

The measure of angle A is 73°
