A helicopter hovers over a mountain top, and a professional snowboarder drops onto the snow 252525 feet below. the snowboarder's

height off the ground, in feet, while falling can be modeled by a quadratic function of seconds of falling, ttt, which has the form h(t) = d - at^2h(t)=d−at 2 h, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis, equals, d, minus, a, t, start superscript, 2, end superscript. if the snowboarder is still 212121 feet above the ground after falling for 0.50.50, point, 5 seconds, how long does the entire 252525 foot drop take? round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a second.

Given:
  h(t) = 25 - a·t²
  h(0.5) = 21

Find:
  t such that h(t) = 0

Solution:
  h(0.5) = 25 - a·0.5² = 21
  25 - 21 = a/4
  4·4 = a = 16
Then
  h(t) = 25 - 16t²
We want h(t) = 0, so
  0 = 25 - 16t²
  16t² = 25
  t² = 25/16 = (5/4)²
  t = 5/4 = 1.25

It takes 1.25 seconds for the entire 25 ft drop.

Including a 5 percent sales tax, a hotel charges $147 per night. What’s the cost without the tax
Arisa [49]
For one night WITH SALES TAX, it would be $154.35, but without sales tax, it would just be $147.. unless you add tip, you would just multipy the original by the percent of the tip then add that answer to the original price.

Solving Steps:

WITH SALES TAX :
$147 x 5% = 7.35 or $147 x .05 = 7.35
147 + 7.35 = $154.35

Evaluate A2 for A = -3. -9 -6 6 9
schepotkina [342]
Evaluate A² for A = -3.

(-3)² = (-3) * (-3) = 9

Your answer is 9.

If the question is, however, evaluate A2, which is 2A, for A = -3, then the answer is:

2A = 2(-3) = -6.
