<h3>Original Equation:</h3>
<em>*To solve for a variable, isolate the desired variable onto one side.</em>
Firstly, we want to add 1/3 to each side however -5/6 and 1/3 do not share the same denominator, and we want them to have that and we can do that by finding the LCD, or lowest common denominator. To find the LCD, list the multiples of 6 and 3 and the lowest multiple that they share is their LCD. In this case, their LCD is 6. Multiply -1/3 by 2/2:
Now that we have common denominators, add both sides by 2/6:
Next, you want to cancel out 2 to isolate z. Usually, one would divide both sides by 2, however remember that <u>dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by it's reciprocal.</u> To find a number's reciprocal, flip the numerator and denominator around. In this case, since 2 is a <em>whole number</em> this means that the denominator is 1. In this case: 2/1 would become 1/2. Multiply both sides by 1/2:
<u>Your final answer is z = -1/4.</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I see you're in college math, so we'll solve this with calculus, since it's the easiest way anyway.
The position equation is
That equation will give us the height of the rock at ANY TIME during its travels. I could find the height at 2 seconds by plugging in a 2 for t; I could find the height at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t, etc.
The first derivative of position is velocity:
v(t) = -3.72t + 15 and you stated that the rock will be at its max height when the velocity is 0, so we plug in a 0 for v(t):
0 = -3.72t + 15 and solve for t:\
-15 = -3.72t so
t = 4.03 seconds. This is how long it takes to get to its max height. Knowing that, we can plug 4.03 seconds into the position equation to find the height at 4.03 seconds:
s(4.03) = -1.86(4.03)² + 15(4.03) so
s(4.03) = 30.2 meters.
Calculus is amazing. Much easier than most methods to solve problems like this.
