Answer: It will take Damon 6 weeks to save the money he needs to buy the snowboard
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see what the problem is giving us:
-The variable X will represent the number of weeks it will take Damon to save the money he needs.
- Damon has $40
- Damon is going to safe $20 weekly
- The snowboard costs $160
Therefor:
Our equation will be: $40 + $20X = $160
Step 1
We need to isolate the variable by subtracting in both sides of the equation 40 in order to maintain the equality.
40 - 40 + 20X = 160 - 40
This will let us with 20X = 120
Step 2
We have to isolate the variable again, but this time (because the variable is being multiplied by 20) we have to divide on both sides of the equation.
20X/20 = 120/20
Therefore: X=6

Answer: maximum height of the football = 176 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to determine the maximum height of the football from the ground. From the function given,
h(t) = -16t^2+96t +32, it is a quadratic function. Plotting graph if h will result to a parabolic shape. The maximum height of the football = the vertex of the parabola. This vertex is located at time, t
t = -b/2a
b = 96 and a= -16
t = -b/2a = -96/2×-16= 3
Substituting t = 3 into the function if h
h(t) = -16×3^2+96×3 +32
=-16×9 + 96×3 +32
= -144+ 288+32
=176 feet
Answer:
5.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 4.3 to 0.8
The answer would be 10/4 but then you simplify it and get 5/2.
Answer = 5/2
40 percent
*how to solve*
First write 8 out of 20 as a fraction:
8/20
Then multiply both sides by 5 so that the denominator is 100:
40/100
40/100 = 40 percent
