<h3>
Answer: 9.4 feet</h3>
Work Shown:
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(22) = x/25
x = 25*sin(22)
x = 9.3651648353978
x = 9.4
Your calculator needs to be in degree mode. One way to check is to compute sin(30) and you should get 0.5 or 1/2.
Answer:
a(6) = 37.97
Step-by-step explanation:
If the first term a(1) is 5 and the common ratio r is 3/2, then the general formula for this geometric sequence is
a(n) = 5*r^(n - 1).
Thus, the 6th term is a(6) = 5*(3/2)^(6 - 1), or a(6) = 5(3/2)^5 = 37.97
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
how long is the ball in the air ?
that is the same as asking : after how many seconds will the ball hit the ground (= reach the height of 0) ?
so, that means we need to find the zero solution of h(t).
at what t is h(t) = 0 ?
when at least one of the factors is 0 :
2(-2 - 4t)(2t - 5)
we have 3 factors
2 : can never be 0.
(-2 -4t) : can only be 0 for negative t, which does not make sense in our scenario (we cannot go back in time, only forward).
(2t - 5) : is 0 when 2t = 5 or t = 2.5
so, A is the right answer.
FYI : the starting height (on the hill) is given by t = 0 :
2(-2 - 0)(0 - 5) = 2×-2×-5 = 20 ft
