t = 1.33 sec

Solution:

Given data:

Velocity (v_0) = 17.5 ft/s

Height (h_0) = 5 ft

The height can be modeled by a quadratic equation

h(t)=-16t^2+v_0t+h_0

where h is the height and t is the time

h(t)=-16t^2+17.5t+5

-16t^2+17.5t+5=0

a = –16, b = 17.5, c = 5

It looks like a quadratic equation. we can solve it by quadratic formula,

$\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}

$\Rightarrow t=\frac{-17.5 \pm \sqrt{(-17.5)^{2}-4\times (-16)(5)}}{2 (-16)}

$\Rightarrow t= \frac{-17.5 \pm \sqrt{306.25+ 320}}{-32}

$\Rightarrow t= \frac{-17.5 \pm 25.025}{-32}

$\Rightarrow t= \frac{-17.5 - 25.025}{-32}, \ t= \frac{-17.5 + 25.025}{-32}

$\Rightarrow t= 1.33, \ t= -0.24

Time cannot be in negative. So neglect t = –0.235.

t = 1.33 sec

Hence Amy have to react  1.33 sec before the volleyball hits the ground.

Answer:

1. The two numbers are 4 and 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) variables: x and y

2) x + y = 12, y - x = 4

3) graph using desmos or another graphing calculator

4) the solution is x = 4, y = 8, or 4 and 8. This means that 4 and 8 can be added to equal 12, and the difference between them is 4.

Sean's house is currently worth $188,900. According to a realtor, house prices in Sean's neighborhood will increase by 4.8% ever
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer  

Given

Sean's house is currently worth $188,900.

According to a realtor, house prices in Sean's neighborhood will increase by 4.8% every year.

To prove

Formula

Compound\quaterly\ interest = Principle (1 + \frac{r}{4})^{4t}

Where r is the rate in the decimal form.

As given

Take\ Principle\ = P_{0}

Rate = \frac{4.8}{100}

              = 0.048

Put in the formula

Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0}(1 + \frac{0.048}{4})^{4t}

Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0} (1 + \frac{0.048}{4})^{4t}

Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0} (1 + 0.012)^{4t}       Compound\quaterly\ interest = P_{0} (1.012)^{4t}  

Now also calculated monthly.

Formula

Compound\ monthly = Principle (1 + \frac{r}{12})^{12t}

As given

Take\ Principle\ = P_{0}

Rate = \frac{4.8}{100}

              = 0.048

Put in the formula

Compound\ monthly = P_{0} (1 + \frac{0.048}{12})^{12t}

Compound\ monthly = P_{0} (1 + 0.004)^{12t}

Compound\ monthly = P_{0} (1.004)^{12t}

As the approximation quarterly growth rate of the value of sean's house is near the Compounded quarterly interest .

Thus Option (A) is correct.

i.e

The expression (1.0118)^{4t} reveals the approximate quarterly growth rate of the value of Sean's house.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think in this question we have to find slope, if so, its y = 10x.

to find the slope just pick two numbers, i chose (2,20) and (7,70) and then put them in the slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1. That gave me 10. I hope its correct. :)
