A projectile is fired from a cliff 200 above the water at an inclination of 45 degree to the horizontal, with a muzzle velocity

of 50 feet per second. The height is given by h(x)= -32x^2/(50)^2+x+200
a. At what horizontal distance from the face of the cliff will the projectile strike the water?

<h2>Horizontal distance when projectile strikes water surface is 170 .02 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The height is given by

                    h(x)=-\frac{32}{50^2}x^2+x+200

We need to find when it strikes the water surface,

At water surface h = 0 feet

Substituting

                  h(x)=-\frac{32}{50^2}x^2+x+200=0

Solving this quadratic equation to get x.

                 -32x² + 2500x + 500000 = 0

                  32x² - 2500x - 500000 = 0

                  x = 170 .02 feet  or  x = -91.90 feet

Negative x is not possible

Horizontal distance when projectile strikes water surface = 170 .02 feet

Avery got 18 questions correct out of 30 on the last quiz. Write the score in decimal form.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since Avery got 18 out of 30 questions right, we can write that as a fraction of \frac{18}{30}.

2. \frac{18}{30}

3. \frac{18}{30} = \frac{3}{5}

4. \frac{3}{5}  = \frac{60}{100}

5. \frac{60}{100} = 0.6

Why it does not matter which two points you pick when you calculate the slope?
andrew11 [14]

What is the next term of the geometric sequence?<br> −128/27,32/9,−8/3,?
Rudik [331]

2

Step-by-step explanation:

common ratio(r)=-3/4

a2÷a1=r

32/9÷-128/27=-3/4

therefore using the common ratio to find the fourth term is just by multiplying the third term -8/3 by the common ratio -3/4

which equals = 2
