a football is fired upward with an initial speed of 800 feet per second. It is given that h=-12t^2+360t (h is the height of the

football at any given time).what will you set h equal to in the equation to to find how many seconds it takes the football to hit the ground?

Answer:

30 s

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball hits the ground h=0. To find the time t when this happens we must solve the equation h=0.

●h= 0

● -12t^2+360t =0

● t(-12t +360) = 0

● t = 0 or -12t +360 =0

● t=0 or -12t = -360

● t=0 or 12t =360

● t=0 or t=360/12

● t=0 or t= 30

The equation has two solutions.

The ball was fired with an initial speed of 800 feet per second so it cannot hit the ground at t=0.

So the ball hits the ground after 30 s.

Answer:

x+4

x+1-2=x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+4/x-1=11/16 x should be different than 1 cz 1-1=0

16(x+4)=11(x-1)

16x+64=11x-11

16x-11x=-11-64

5x=-75

x=-15

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

<h2>1.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points. Let the points be A and B

A ( 8 , -2 ) ------> ( x1 , y1 )

B ( 12 , 4 ) ------> ( x2 , y2 )

Now, let's find the slope of the given points:

slope \:  =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

plug the values

=  \frac{4 - ( -2)}{12 - 8}

When there is a ( - ) in front of an expression in parentheses , change the sign of each term in the expression

=  \frac{4 + 2}{12 - 8}

Subtract the numbers

=  \frac{4  + 2}{4}

Add the numbers

=  \frac{6}{4}

Reduce the fraction with 2

=  \frac{3}{2}

= 1.5

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!

Solve |12x + 1| = 10<br> (9/2, 11/2)<br> (-9/2, 9/2)<br> (-112.9/2)
Reil [10]

|12x + 1| = 10

Remove the absolute value term and make two equations:

12x +1 = 10

12x +1 = -10

Now solve for both x values:

12x +1 = 10

Subtract 1 from both sides:

12x = 9

Divide both sides by 12:

x = 9/12

12x +1 = -10

Subtract 1 from both sides:

12x = -11

Divide both sides by 12:

x = -11/12

The answer would be (-11/12, 912)
