say, you have half a pie, and 2 sisters, if you divide the half-pie in 3 equal pieces, how much is everyone getting of the whole pie?  well, is the quotient of 1/2 and 3.


\bf \stackrel{pie}{\cfrac{1}{2}}\div \stackrel{siblings}{3}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}\div\cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{3}\implies \stackrel{\textit{each one gets}}{\cfrac{1}{6}}

Use the position equation given below, where s represents the height of the object (in feet), v0 represents the initial velocity
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

(a) 7.5 seconds

(b) The horizontal distance the package  travel during its descent is 1737.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The given function for the height of the object is s = -16·t² + v₀·t + s₀

The initial height of the object s₀ = 900 feet

The initial vertical velocity of the object v₀_y = 0 m/s

The time it takes the package to strike the ground is found as follows;

0 = -16·t² + 0×t + 900

900 = 16·t²

t² = 900/16 = 62.25

t = √62.25 = 7.5 seconds

(b) Given that the horizontal velocity of the package is given as 158 miles/hour, we have

158 miles/hour = 231.7126 ft/s

The horizontal distance the package  covers in the 7.5 second of vertical flight = 231.7126 ft/s × 7.5 s = 1737.8445 feet = 1737.8 ft to one decimal place

The horizontal distance the package  travel during its descent = 1737.8 ft.

A map has a scale of 3 cm and 20 cm which statement is true or false two cities are actually 66 cm part are9.9 cm part
victus00 [196]
Answer:
Answer options
A. Two cities that are 7.5 cm apart on the map are actually 50 km apart.
D. Two cities that are actually 66 km apart are 9.9 cm apart on the map.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Indicate the scale as shown;
3 cm : 20 km, meaning 3 cm on the map represents 20 km on the ground
A). what does 7.5 cm represent on the ground
Distance on ground=(7.5×20)/3=50 km
B). what does 4 cm represent on the ground
Distance on ground=(4×20)/3=26.67 km
C). what does 45 km on ground represent on the map
Distance on map=(45×3)/20=6.75 cm
D). what does 66 km on ground represent on the map
Distance on the map=(66×3)/20=9.9 cm

How does this diagram help show that 2/7 = 8/28
Sveta_85 [38]
This diagram shows how 2/7 = 8/28 by showing that you can color in more squares or duplicate that amount of squares 4 times in order to get 8/28. (Since 2/7 x 4/4 = 8/28.)
