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.

Write the decimal for 1/8. Explain why this decimal is called a terminating decimal.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The decimal is 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor (GCF) of 1 and 8 is 1. Convert 1/8 to its simplest form by dividing the numerator and denominator by its GCF and you get

1/1=1

-   -

8/1= 1 over eight

Using the data in the table, which statement is true?
Igoryamba

The true statement is mean > median

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The mean is the average value.

So, we have

Mean = Sum/Count

This gives

Mean = (8 * 1 + 10 * 3 + 14 * 2)/(1 + 3 + 2)

Evaluate

Mean = 11

The mode is the measure with the highest frequency.

So, we have

Mode = 10

The median is the middle element

So, we have

Median = 10

The mean (11) is greater than the mode and the median

Hence, the true statement is mean > median

What is 15/8 written in a mixed number?<br><br><br>Sorry I'm just bad at math :/​
Valentin [98]

The mixed number is 1 and 7/8 because 15 minus 8 equals 7/8 and since you went over the whole (8/8) it is 1 plus 7/8 which equals 1 and 7/8.

It's okay that you might not be good in math that's why we will help.
