A fish jumps out of the water at a speed of 12 feet per second. The height y (in feet) of the fish above the surface of the wate

r is represented by the equation y=-16x^2+12x, where x is the time (in seconds) since the jump began. The fish reaches its highest point above the surface of the water after 0.375 seconds. How far above the surface is the fish at this time?

Answer:

The fish is 2.25 ft above the surface at 0.375 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y=-16x^2+12x

x=0.375 seconds

Substitute x=0.375 into the equation

y=-16x^2+12x

= -16(0.375)^2 +12(0.375

= -16(0.140625) + 4.5

= -2.25 + 4.5

= 2.25

y=2.25 ft

The fish is 2.25 ft above the surface at 0.375 seconds

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

x ≈ 8.3 ( to the nearest tenth )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos41° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{x}{11}

Multiply both sides by 11

11 × cos41° = x, thus

x ≈ 8.3

Aaron is using a special beaker in science that is a cylinder with a radius of 2 cm and a height of 3 cm on top of a cylinder th
Vilka [71]
Since in the above case, the beaker has two sections each with different radius and height, we will divide this problem into two parts.

We will calculate the volume of both the beakers separately and then add them up together to get the volume of the beaker.

Given, π = 3.14

Beaker 1:

Radius (r₁) = 2 cm
Height (h₁) = 3 cm

Volume (V₁) = π r₁² h₁ = 3.14 x 2² x 3 = 37.68 cm³

Beaker 2:

Radius (r₂) = 6 cm
Height (h₂) = 4 cm
Volume (V₂) = π r₂² h₂ = 3.14 x 6² x 4 = 452.16 cm³

Volume of beaker = V₁ + V₂ = 37.68 + 452.16 = 489.84 cm³
