Answer:
At approximately x = 0.08 and x = 3.92.
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the ball is modeled by the function:
Where f(x) is the height after x seconds.
We want to determine the time(s) when the ball is 10 feet in the air.
Therefore, we will set the function equal to 10 and solve for x:
Subtracting 10 from both sides:
For simplicity, divide both sides by -1:
We will use the quadratic formula. In this case a = 16, b = -64, and c = 5. Therefore:
Substitute:
Evaluate:
Simplify the square root:
Therefore:
Simplify:
Approximate:
Therefore, the ball will reach a height of 10 feet at approximately x = 0.08 and x = 3.92.
The answer is a. You find the area of each shape and add them
Answer:
0.4875 cents per ounce
Step-by-step explanation:
16 ounces per pound
1.75 lbs x 16 = 28 ounces
$13.65/28 ounces = .4875 cents/ounce
Check: 0.4875 cents x 28 ounces = $13.65
To establish this equation we first need to assign some variables.
Let us assign x as the number of hours he has worked
and assign y as the total amount of money that he has earned
Therefore the equation y=36.50x is the equation that correctly represents how much money he makes regardless of how many hours he works. Just plug in how many hours you want for x and then solve the equation and you will get how much money he makes in x amount of hours. This is also proportional because for every hour that he works he gets the same salary of 36.50. It is proportional because no matter how many hours he works the salary will go up the same amount for each extra hour he works. The proportion is 36.50 dollars per hour worked.
