Find 9/20 of 100

9/20 * 100 = 900/20 = 45

So 45 people voted to change the law, and that's not enough.

So find 9/20 of 100
'of' means multiply so
9/20 times 100=900/20=90/2=45
45 chose to change it
45 is less than 60 so the answer is no

Im not entirely sure what you are looking for, but if you are trying to find out how much he has left, you would take 625,000-259,000=366,000

He would have $366,000 left from his retirement.

Hope this helps! :)

the initial vertical velocity of a rocket shot straight up is 42 meters per second. How long does it take for the rocket to retu
Snowcat [4.5K]
It takes 4.3 seconds for the rocket to return to earth.

The equation is:
0=-9.8t^2+v_0t+h_0
where -9.8m/sec² is the acceleration due to gravity, v₀ is the initial velocity, and h₀ is the initial height.  We will go from the assumption that the rocket is launched from the ground, so h₀=0, and we are told that the initial velocity, v₀, is 42.  This gives us:

0=-9.8t^2+42t

We will use the quadratic formula to solve this.  The quadratic formula is:
x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Plugging in our information we have:
t=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{42^2-4(-9.8)(0)}}{2(-9.8)}
\\
\\=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{1764-0}}{-19.6}
\\
\\=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{1764}}{-19.6}
\\
\\=\frac{-42\pm 42}{-19.6}=\frac{-42-42}{-19.6} \text{ or } \frac{-42+42}{-19.6}
\\
\\=\frac{-84}{-19.6}\text{ or }\frac{0}{-19.6}
\\
\\=4.3\text{ or }0

x=0 is when the rocket is launched; x=4.3 is when the rocket lands.

Amelia launched her science fair rocket, and then backed away. The path of the rocket is given by the equation below, where y is
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

1)The rocket hit the ground at     x = \frac{5}{4}

2)The maximum height of the rocket = 12.468 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given equation  

                y = -2 x² + 5 x + 7 ...(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x' , we get

             \frac{dy}{dx} = -2( 2x) +5(1) =  -4x +5

Equating zero

            \frac{dy}{dx} = 0

⇒      -4 x +5 =0

⇒      -4 x = -5

⇒          x = \frac{5}{4}

<em> The rocket hit the ground at     </em>x = \frac{5}{4}<em></em>

<u><em>Step(ii):</em></u>-

    \frac{dy}{dx}  =  -4x +5  ...(ii)

Again differentiating equation (ii) with respective to 'x' , we get

 \frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2} }  = - 4(1)

The maximum height at x = \frac{-5}{4}

  y = -2 x² + 5 x + 7

 y = -2 (\frac{5}{4})^{2}  + 5 (\frac{5}{4} )  + 7

y = \frac{-2(25)+ 25 (16)+7(64)}{64}

y = \frac{798}{64} = 12.468 feet

<em>The maximum height of the rocket = 12.468 feet</em>
