Answer:

-1 > x and x > 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

-12 < -3x - 15 < -36

What we are looking at here is a comparison with -12 being the smallest value, -3x - 15 being the second smallest value, and 36 being the largest value in the sequence. What you need to do is to make the problem into two separate problems:

-12 < -3x - 15

and

-3x - 15 < -36

Then we solve the equations like so (using PEMDAS):

-12 < -3x - 15

+15            +15

3 < -3x

/-3    /-3

-1 > x   (the sign was changed the other way because when you divide by a negative it has to be flipped)

Now the other equation

-3x - 15 < -36

     +15      +15

-3x < -21

/-3     /-3

x >  7

Now we have the inequalities of -1 > x and x > 7.

A projectile is fired at such an angle that the vertical
svetoff [14.1K]

(a) The projectile remains in the air for 10 seconds

(b) It travels a horizontal distance of 600 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A projectile is fired at such an angle that

1. The vertical  component of its velocity is 49 m/sec

2. The horizontal  component of its velocity is 60 m/sec

We need to find:

(a) How long the projectile remains in the air

(b) The horizontal distance it travels

∵ The vertical distance y = u_{y} t - \frac{1}{2} g t², where

u_{y} is the vertical  component of its velocity, g is the acceleration

of gravity and t is the time

∵ y = 0 ⇒ it return to the same initial height

∵ u_{y} = 49 m/s

∵ g = 9.8 m/s²

- Substitute these values in the rule above

∴ 0 = 49 t - \frac{1}{2} (9.8) t²

∴ 0 = 49 t - 4.9 t²

- Take t as a common factor

∴ 0 = t (49 - 4.9 t)

- Equate each term by 0

∴ t = 0 ⇒ at initial position

∴ 49 - 4.9 t = 0

- Add 4.9 t to both side

∴ 49 = 4.9 t

- Divide both sides by 4.9

∴ t = 10 seconds

(a) The projectile remains in the air for 10 seconds

∵ The horizontal distance = u_{x} t, where u_{x} is the

   horizontal component of its velocity

∵ u_{x} = 60 m/sec

∵ t = 10 seconds

∴ x = 60 × 10 = 600 meters

(b) It travels a horizontal distance of 600 meters
