The answer is -8/15 because you need to cancel out the variables first
In this case, the best method starts with finding one percent of the selling price. To do this, divide the commission ($11825) by 5.5. This gets you 1%, which is $2150. Next, multiply this number by 100, turning 1% into 100%. Your final answer is $215,000.
Cost of book = 60
Lost book = 60 * 0.75 = 45
Equation of amount of lost book (N) = 0.75 * B
Hope this helps!
So you have to find the volume of the tank, and the volume of the pyramid. Then subtract the volume of the pyramid from that out of the tank. The formula for pyramid is v = lwh/3. For the tank (which is a cube in this case) It's any given side cubed.
40*30*30 = 3600/3=1200cm cubed
40^3 = 6400cm cubed
6400-1200=5200cm^3 of water
(If you don't get this answer then I may have made a calculation error as I did this quickly in my head, just check my answer and yours to see)
For this case we have the following kinematic equation that models the problem:
h (t) = (1/2) * (- 9.8) * t ^ 2 + 12 * t + 2
Rewriting we have:
h (t) = -4.9 * t ^ 2 + 12 * t + 2
When the ball hits the ground we have:
-4.9 * t ^ 2 + 12 * t + 2 = 0
Solving the polynomial we have:
t1 = -0.16
t2 = 2.61
We ignore the negative root because it is time.
Answer:
It will take the ball to hit the ground about:
t = 2.61 sec
