Given:

The distance s​ (in feet) of the ball from the ground after t seconds is

s=64t-16t^2

To find:

(a) At what time t will the ball strike the​ ground?

(b) For what time t is the ball more than 48 feet above the​ ground?

Solution:

(a)

We have,

s=64t-16t^2

Substitute s=0, to find the time t when the ball strike the​ ground.

0=64t-16t^2

0=16t(4-t)

Using zero product property, we get

16t=0\Rightarrow t=0

4-t=0\Rightarrow t=4

Therefore, the ball strike the​ ground in initial condition (t = 0) and after 4 seconds (t = 4).

(b)

Now, s > 48, to find the time t when the ball will be more than 48 feet above the​ ground.

64t-16t^2\geq 48

0> 16t^2-64t+48

Divide both sides by 16.

0> t^2-4t+3

0> t^2-t-3t+3

0> t(t-1)-3(t-1)

0>(t-1)(t-3)

Related equation is (t-1)(t-3)=0. Zeroes are t=1,3. These two number divide the number line is three parts. (-∞,1),(1,3),(3,∞)

0>(t-1)(t-3) inequality is true for only (1,3).

It is only possible when t lies in the interval (1,3).

Therefore, the ball will be more than 48 feet above the​ ground between 1 and 3 seconds.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

73.5

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you are trying to find 4x+23y. To do this, let's plug in 1.5 for x and 3 for y. When we do so, we get 4*1.5 + 23*3 = 6 + 69 = 75. Hope this helps!

B. 180cm3

You have to find length, width, and height of both objects.

For the first one multiply:
3 x 8 x 5 = 120

Then multiply:
2 x 5 x 6 = 60

Add them together:

120 + 60 = 180cm3

ivann1987 [24]
Let L and S represent the weights of large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to two equations:
.. 7L +9S = 273
.. 5L +3S = 141

You can solve these equations various ways. Using "elimination", we can multiply the second equation by 3 and subtract the first equation.
.. 3(5L +3S) -(7L +9S) = 3(141) -(273)
.. 8L = 150
.. L = 150/8 = 18.75
Then we can substitute into either equation to find S. Let's use the second one.
.. 5*18.75 +3S = 141
.. S = (141 -93.75)/3 = 15.75

A large box weighs 18.75 kg; a small box weighs 15.75 kg.
