Answer:

39.0625 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the function is a quadratic representing height, and the coefficient of the t² is negative, the vertex of the parabola will be the maximum height achieved by the ball.  

The general form for a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c, here a is -16, and b is 50

To find the x coordinate of the vertex, use   x = -b/(2a)

We have x = -50/[2(-16)]

               

                  x = -50/-32

             

                         x= 25/16

Now plug that into the equation to find the y value, which will be the height...

y = 50(25/16) - 16(25/16)²

    y = 1250/16 - 16(625/256)

        y = 1250/16 - 625/16

              y = 625/16

                   y = 39.0625

Based on a kc value of 0.200 and the given data table, what are the equilibrium concentrations of xy, x, and y, respectively?
MariettaO [177]
There is no given data table but based on the question, the reaction is
xy <=> x + y
If we let M as the initial concentration of xy and c as the in the concentration after the dissociation, then we can use the ICE method
    xy   <=>   x    +   y
I    M
C  -c            c         c
-----------------------------
E  M-c          c         c

Solve for c using
Kc = c(c) / (M - c)
And the concentration of the xy, x, and y can then be determined

Answer:

The times in seconds it took 6 finalists to run a 100 meter dash are 12.5 12.4 12.4 12.3 12.6 and 12.4. Mr. Brown picks out the time that appears the most to find the <u>mode</u> he arranges the times in increasing order and picks the middle value to find the <u>median</u>

1. 3y

multiplying 3 and y together gets 3y

2. y-5

5 less implies that we subtract 5 from y

3. y+7

adding 7 to y, self-explanatory

4. 9y

same thing as #1

5. \frac{y}{8}

quotient of implies division, since number y is listed first, y is the numerator

i live in a house that 3 metets below sea level go to school 5 meters above sea level how many meters do i go​
RideAnS [48]
3 meters below sea level represents a -3
From -3 to 0 is 3
3 + 5 above sea level = 8 meters
There are 8 meters between the house and the school
