Using the given equation, set H to 8 meters and solve for t:
8 = 3 + 20t -5t^2
Subtract 8 from each side:
3 + 20t -5t^2 -8 = 0
Simplify:
20t - 5t^2-5 =0
Factor out -5:
-5(t^2-4t+1)=0
Divide both sides by -5:
t^2 - 4t +1 = 0
Using the quadratic formula solve for t:
t = 2 +/- √3
t = 3.73 or 0.27
Answer:
The system of equations representing the situation are


with solutions


Step-by-step explanation:
Let us call
the number of associates and
the number of partners. If each associate costs $600 and each partner costs $1200, and it cost the law firm a total of $15,000, then we have
.
Since the law firm assigned at total of 16 lawyers, we have
.
Thus, the system of equations representing the situation are


And the solution to this system is found by solving for
in the second equation and substituting its value in the first equation:






We put this value into
and solve for 


Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the two functions, we need to find
(g ° f)(4)
This means, we need to put the function f(x) INTO the function g(x) and then evaluate that new function at x = 4.
We put the whole expression of f(x) into "x" of g(x). Shown below:

Now we plug in 4 into x and evaluate:

Thus,
correct answer is C
Answer:
1 3/4 = 7/4
(7/4) / (1/8)
(7/4) * (8/1) = 56/4 = 14
D,14
