Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Our function, in terms of the gravitational pull in the metric system, will be

s(t)=-4.9t^2+12t+2

where the leading coefficient represents the acceleration due to gravity (if you do not know calculus, just take me at my word on this!), 12 is the initial vertical velocity, and 2 is the initial height of the baseball.  Being asked the question, "How long will it take for the ball to hit the ground?" is the exact same as being asked, "How long was the ball in the air?"  Be aware of the wording!!

s(t) represents the height of the ball at a certain time during its flight.  If the ball hits the ground, we know that the height of something ON the ground is 0, so sub in 0 for s(t) and factor to solve for t.

If you throw this into the quadratic formula, you get that

t = -.2 seconds and t = 2.6 seconds.

Since time will NEVER be negative, we know that it takes the ball 2.6 seconds to hit the ground.  It was also, then, in the air for 2.6 seconds.

Answer:

2.6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

g = 10

s = 2

u = -12

t = ?

2 = -12t + 5t²

5t² - 12t - 2 = 0

t = [12 +/- sqrt(12² - 4(5)(-2)]/2(5)

t = (12 +/- sqrt(184))/10

t = 2.55646599663

Levart [38]

Answer:

a. 5.26

Step-by-step explanation:

As, the standard deviation of the distribution of the difference between mean is 0.76 so the t score will be simply calculated by dividing the difference of means by standard deviation of the distribution of the difference between mean as hypothesized difference is zero.

t score=Xbar A- Xbar B/Sd of difference of means

t score=55-51/0.76

t score=4/0.76=5.26

The graph of y=f(x) is shown below. Find the value of f (0)
meriva

Answer:

f(0) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Read from the graph the value "y" that the line presents when "x" is zero. That is the f(0) you are looking for.

See attached screen capture with the point highlighted

f(0) according to the image provided is equal to 2.

f(0) = 2

Use calculator to find the values of the following,correct to 3decimal places:<br><br> 1. Cot 61,4
g100num [7]

No such thing as cot (61,4). I think you meant to say cot (61.4°). See the difference?

So, cot (61.4°) is approximately -0.139844.

Rounded to 3 decimal places we get -0.140.
