Answer:

t \approx 0.43\,s

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical displacement function is y(t) = -4.9\cdot t^{2}-3.5\cdot t + 2.4, where y(t) is measured in meters and t in seconds. Ball hits the ground when y(t) = 0. That is:

-4.9\cdot t^{2}-3.5\cdot t + 2.4 = 0

Whose roots can be found by using the General Formula for Second-Order Polynomials:

t_{1,2} = \frac{3.5\pm \sqrt{(-3.5)^{2}-4\cdot (-4.9)\cdot (2.4)} }{2\cdot (-4.9)}

Solutions of this polynomial are:

t_{1} \approx 0.43\,s,t_{2} \approx -1.14\,s

Only the first root is physically consistent.

The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than its width. Its area is 91 square inches. The length is .
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

13 in

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width then length is w + 6

the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × width , then

A = w(w + 6) = 91 , that is

w² + 6w = 91 ( subtract 91 from both sides )

w² + 6w - 91 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form

(w + 13)(w - 7) = 0 ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w + 13 = 0 ⇒ w = - 13

w - 7 = 0 ⇒ w = 7

however, w > 0 then w = 7

and length = w + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13 in

Tbe question doesn't state the number of days he walked to school out of 20 school days in the

Month of February.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To. Obtain the fractional representayion for the number of days he walked to school ;

Let the number of days he walked to school = 10 (this is an hypothesized value)

Number of school days in February = 20

Fraction = 10 /20 = 0.5

The percentage of times walked to school : multiply the fraction obtained above by 100%

0.5 * 100% = 50%

Just put the desired value and proceed uSing the steps described above.

Kx - c = 9 solve for x
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

x = \frac{9+c}{k}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

kx - c = 9 ( add c to both sides )

kx = 9 + c ( isolate x by dividing both sides by k )

x = \frac{9+c}{k}
