Answer:

Distance traveled by hockey puck of second player is 40 feet more than that of first player.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum height of 3 feet is attained by the hockey puck of first player is when the puck is 55 feet away from the player.

It is at the mid point of the total horizontal distance to be traveled by the hockey puck.

So, the horizontal distance traveled by hockey puck of first player = 55 + 55 = 110 feet

Second player:

y=x(0.15-0.001x)

where y is the height of a second hockey puck

x is the horizontal distance.

When the puck hits the ground, y=0

Now, let us find the value of x.

\Rightarrow 0=x(0.15-0.001x)

At x=0 feet or x=150 feet, y=0

Therefore, the distance traveled by second hockey puck is 150 feet.

So, the answer is:

<em>Distance traveled by hockey puck of second player is 40 feet more than that of first player.</em>

The short sides of a rectangle are 2 inches. The long sides of the same rectangle are three less than an unknown number of inche
Marat540 [252]

So remember that area of a rectangle is a = bh. In this case, our sides are 2 and n - 3 (three less than unknown number) and our area is 22. Using our info, we can form the equation: 22=2(n-3) . From here we can solve for n.

Firstly, foil 2(n-3): 22=2n-6

Next, add 6 on both sides of the equation: 28=2n

Next, divide both sides of the equation and your answer will be 14 = n. In context, the value of the unknown number is 14 in.
