Answer:

The time it took for the bottle rocket to reach a height of 200 feet is 60 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for the height of the bottle rocket (in feet), t seconds after it is launched is:

$h(t)=1157-16\ t$

Compute the value of t as follows:

$h(t)=1157-16\ t$

$200=1157-16t$

$16t=1157-200\\16t=957\\$

$t=59.8125\\t\approx60$

Thus, the time it took for the bottle rocket to reach a height of 200 feet is 60 seconds.

A bank wishes to invest a $100, 000 trust fund in three sources: bonds paying 8%; certificates of deposit paying 7%; and first m

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

It is not possible to make the investment under the given conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y and z be the amounts invested in bonds, certificates of deposit and mortgages respectively.

1st equation

“A bank wishes to invest a $100, 000 trust fund in three sources”

x + y + z = 100,000

2nd equation

“The bank wishes to realize an $8, 000, annual income from the investment and bonds paying 8%; certificates of deposit paying 7%; and first mortgages paying 10%”

0.8x + 0.7y + 0.1z = 8,000

3rd equation

“the total amount invested in bonds and certificates of deposit must be triple the amount invested in mortgages”

x+y = 3z

and we have a linear system of 3 equations with 3 unknowns

x + y + z = 100,000

0.8x + 0.7y + 0.1z = 8,000

x + y -3z = 0

This system has a unique solution given by

x = -470,000

y = 545,000

z = 25,000

Since x is negative, we deduct there is no way to do such an investment.

(6+√-64)(3-√-16) Multiply. This is urgent, please explain this to me!

romanna [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{-64}$ and $\sqrt{-16}$ can be expressed in complex form, with $\sqrt{-1}$ = i

$\sqrt{-64}$ = $\sqrt{64(-1)}$ = $\sqrt{64}$ × $\sqrt{-1}$ = 8i

$\sqrt{-16}$ = $\sqrt{16(-1)}$ = $\sqrt{16}$ × $\sqrt{-1}$ = 4i

the factors can then be expressed as

(6 + 8i)(3 - 4i) ← expand using FOIL

= 18 - 24i + 24i - 32i² [ i² = ( $\sqrt{-1}$ )² = - 1 ]

= 18 - 24i + 24i + 32 ← collect like terms

= 18 + 32 + 0

= 50

When the whole is the same, why does it take 4 copies of 1 tenth to equal 2 copies of 1 fifth?

vaieri [72.5K]

Because you can split the same whole into different parts. You can split a cake into 10 peices and eat 4 peices of the cake. That would be eating 4/10 of a cake. That would equal eating the same amount of cake if you split the cake into 5 peices and ate 2 of them.
