6 sec can take penny to strike the ground.

Solution:

Given data:

H_0=288 feet

V_0=48 feet

h(t)=288+48t-16t^2

Re-arrange the terms from greatest degree to smallest degree.

h(t)=-16t^2+48t+288

We can solve it by applying quadratic formula,

$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Here a = –16, b = 48, c = 288

$t=\frac{-48\pm \sqrt{48^2-4(-16)(288)}}{2(-16)}

$t=\frac{-48\pm \sqrt{2304+18432}}{-32}

$t=\frac{-48\pm \sqrt{20736}}{-32}

$t=\frac{-48\pm144}{-32}

Now, write find two t's using plus and minus operation.

$t=\frac{-48+144}{-32},\ \ t=\frac{-48-144}{-32}

$t=\frac{96}{-32},\ \ t=\frac{-192}{-32}

t = –3 (or)   t = 6

We cannot write time is negative. so neglect t = –3.

Therefore t = 6.

Hence 6 sec can take penny to strike the ground.

How can you solve a system of linear equations? How can you check your solution?
natali 33 [55]
<span>After you solve a system of linear equations, you will get an ordered pair (x,y). Replace x with whatever number you obtained for x, and replace y with whatever number you obtained for y. If both your equations are true upon simplifying, you know it is correct.</span>

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the expression is equal to 110° since it is a vertical angle. So what we do is we ad 10 to both sides of the equation. We are left with 8x=120 so if we divide 120/8 we get 15 which would leave it as x=15. Now plug it in and check it.

Six times the difference of a number and 4 is no more than 10.
sveta [45]

Answer: x = 17/3 or 5 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

ATQ

6(x -4) = 10

6x-24 = 10

6x = 10+24

6x = 34

x = 34/6

x = 17/3
