Answer:

Given - Ratio of boys to girls is 3 : 1

Total 36 students

To find - No. of girls

Solution

Let the ratio be 3x and X

3x + X = 36

4x = 36

x = 36/4

x= 9

1x = 9

There are 9 girls in the class

The height H of an ball that is thrown straight upward from an initial position 3 feet off the ground with initial velocity of 9

mariarad [96]

Answer:

The ball will be 84 feet above the ground 1.125 seconds and 4.5 seconds after launch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement is incorrect. Correct form is presented below:

The height $h(t)$ of an ball that is thrown straight upward from an initial position 3 feet off the ground with initial velocity of 90 feet per second is given by equation $h(t) = 3 +90\cdot t -16\cdot t^{2}$ , where $t$ is time in seconds. After how many seconds will the ball be 84 feet above the ground.

We equalize the kinematic formula to 84 feet and solve the resulting second-order polynomial by Quadratic Formula to determine the instants associated with such height:

$3+90\cdot t -16\cdot t^{2} = 84$

$16\cdot t^{2}-90\cdot t +81 = 0$ (1)

By Quadratic Formula:

$t_{1,2} = \frac{90\pm \sqrt{(-90)^{2}-4\cdot (16)\cdot (81)}}{2\cdot (16)}$

$t_{1} = 4.5\,s$ , $t_{2} = 1.125\,s$

The ball will be 84 feet above the ground 1.125 seconds and 4.5 seconds after launch.

Which polynomial is prime? O x2 + x + 1 O x2-x-2 O x2 - 12x + 11 O x2 + 2x -8

liraira [26]

Answer:

x2 + x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial with integer coefficients that cannot be factored into polynomials of lower degree , also with integer coefficients, is called an irreducible or prime polynomial . Example 1: x2+x+1. (:
