The height of the tide measured at a seaside community varies according to the number of hours t after midnight. If the height h

, in feet, is currently given by the equation h=-1/2 t^2+6t-9, when will the tide first be at 6 ft?

Explanation:

Given that, the height of the tide measured at a seaside community varies according to the number of hours t after midnight. The height is given by the equation as :

h=-\dfrac{1}{2}t^2+6t-9

When the tide first be at 6 ft, put h = 6 ft in above equation as :

-\dfrac{1}{2}t^2+6t-9=6

-t^2+12t-18=0

On solving the above equation to find the value of t. It is equal to :

t = 3.551 seconds

or

t = 8.449 seconds

So, the tide of 6 ft is at  3.551 seconds and 8.449 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

1)Typically, atom gain or lose electrons to achieve 
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed is option C, a stable electron configuration

2)The formation of an ionic bond involves

I believe the correct answer is A, transfer of electrons since it is electrons that is involved in a chemical reaction.

Rosa uses the formula (vi¡cosθ)tΔ to do a calculation. Which value is Rosa most likely trying to find?
andriy [413]
To break this problem down, let's start with what we know. The equation given finds one component of the velocity and multiplies it by the change in time. This will not find the acceleration that the first two answers say it will, meaning that the answer isn't A or B.

That leaves us with the final two answers, C and D. If the projectile was launched horizontally and we were trying to find the horizontal displacement, we wouldn't need to use cosθ to find the horizontal velocity, meaning that our answer is most likely C) <span>the horizontal displacement of a projectile launched at an angle!</span><span />
