Answer:

  2.86 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume the height is measured above the ground, so the height when the ball hits the ground is 0 feet. Putting that into the equation and solving for t, we get ...

  0 = 157 -9t -16t^2

We can use the quadratic formula with a=-16, b=-9, c=157 to find the solution.

  t = (-b -√(b^2 -4ac))/(2a) . . . . . we are not interested in the negative solution

  t = (-(-9) -√((-9)^2 -4(-16)(157)))/(2(-16))

  t = (9 -√10129)/-32 = (9 -100.6429)/-32 ≈ 2.86384

The ball will hit the ground about 2.86 seconds after it is thrown.

HELP!!!! I’LL GIVE THE BRIANLIEST TO WHOEVER GETS IT RIGHT!!!!
Leto [7]

Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

D is at (1,6) and C is at (-4,-6)

The distance is found by

d = sqrt(( y2-y1)^2+ (x2-x1)^2))

  = sqrt( ( -6-6)^2 + (-4-1)^2)

  = sqrt(  -12^2 + -5^2)

  = sqrt( 144+ 25)

   = sqrt( 169)

   = 13

Gnom [1K]

Based on the EBIT, the cost of equity, and rates attached, Calvert Corporation has the following values:

  • a. $124,019.61
  • b. - 1 $136,421.57
  • b - 2 $155,024.51
<h3 /><h3>What is the value of Calvert Corporation?</h3>

This can be found as:

=  EBIT x (1 - tax rate) / cost of an equity

= 25,300 x (1 - 25%) / 0.153

= $124,019.61

<h3>What is the value with 40% debt?</h3>

= Value of firm + (Tax rate x Debt percentage x Value of firm)

= 124,019.61 + (25% x 40% x 124,019.61)

= $136,421.57

<h3>What is the value with 100% debt?</h3>

= 124,019.61 + (25% x 100% x 124,019.61)

= $155,024.51
