Imagine you covered the outer part of the wheel with paint. Then you rolled the wheel one complete revolution. The paint on the wheel would transfer to the flat ground making a straight line. The length of this straight line is exactly equal to the distance around the circle (aka circumference)

Let's find the circumference

C = 2*pi*r
C = 2*pi*14
C = 28pi

The distance around the circle is exactly 28pi inches.
If we use pi = 3.14, which is an approximation of pi, then that approximates to 28*pi = 28*3.14 = 87.92

So one revolution corresponds to traveling 87.92 inches approximately

We want to travel 440 inches. The question is: how many revolutions do we need to go in order to achieve this goal?

Let k = number of revolutions needed to travel 440 inches

1 revolution = 87.92 inches traveled
k revolutions = k*87.92 inches traveled

Set the expressions k*87.92 and 440 equal to each other and solve

k*87.92 = 440
k*87.92/87.92 = 440/87.92
k = 5.0045495 ... this is approximate

So it takes about 5 revolutions to travel 440 inches. We'll need a bit over 5 to make sure we get to 440.

Final Answer: Choice B) 5 rotations

An object is launched directly in the air at a speed of 64 feet per second from a platform located 16 feet above the ground. The

zloy xaker [14]

Considering the vertex of the quadratic equation, the maximum height that the object will reach is of 80 feet.

<h3>What is the vertex of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

The vertex is given by:

$(x_v, y_v)$

In which:

$x_v = -\frac{b}{2a}$

$y_v = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}$

Considering the coefficient a, we have that:

If a < 0, the vertex is a maximum point.

If a > 0, the vertex is a minimum point.

In this problem, the equation is:

f(t) = -16t² + 64t + 16.

Hence the coefficients are:

a = -16, b = 64, c = 16.

The maximum value is found as follows:

$y_v = -\frac{64^2 - 4(-16)(16)}{4(-16)} = 80$

What is the slope and y-intercept of the line 3x - 4y = 12?*

Lorico [155]

Answer:

m = 3/4; b = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, put the given equation into slope-intercept form. This is so we can identify its slope and y-intercept easily. Isolate y:

$3x-4y = 12\\-4y = -3x+12\\y = \frac{3}{4} x-3$

2) Lines that are in slope-intercept form are represented by the formula $y = mx + b$ . The number in place of $m$ , or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. The number in place of $b$ represents the y-intercept. So, the slope of $y = \frac{3}{4} x-3$ is $\frac{3}{4}$ , and its y-intercept is -3.
