Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
s=16t^2
where
s=distance in feet travelled (downwards) since airborne with zero vertical velocity and zero air-resistance
t=time in seconds after release
Here we're given
s=144 feet
=>
s=144=16t^2
=>
t^2=144/16=9
so
t=3
Ans. after 3 seconds, the object hits the ground 144 ft. below.
If you choose 10 swimmers and 4 are Stingrays, you can say that Stingrays make up roughly 40% of the swimmers. If 20 Stingrays make up 40% of all the swimmers, we just have to find what number 20 is 40% of. That’s easy enough by cross multiplication:
20/x = 40/100
20/x = 4/10
20/x = 2/5
x = 50.
Double check by multiplying 50 * 0.4. Since 50 * 0.4 = 20, we know we have the right answer. There are about 50 swimmers on this team.
Answer:
<u>112 children</u>
<u>180 adults</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adults = A
Let the number of children = C
A + C =292
4A + 1.5C = 888. solve for A, C
A = 292 - C
4[292 - C] + 1.5C = 888
1,168 - 4C + 1.5C = 888
-2.5C = - 280
C = -280 / -2.5
C = 112 - Number of children
292 - 112 = 180 - Number of adults
