Answer:
The object will hit the ground after <u>9 seconds</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The height 'h' of an object varies with time 'x' as:
Now, we are asked to find the time 'x' when the height reaches ground after launch.
So, the height of the object on reaching ground will be 0 m. So, substituting 0 for 'h' and solving for 'x', we get:
Therefore, there are two values of 'x' for which height is 0. The negative value is ignored as time can't be negative.
So, the value of 'x' is 9 seconds.
Hence, the object will hit the ground after 9 seconds.
Answer:
Jill lost 1/3
Bill lost 1/6
and Jack lost 1/4
Make a common denominator - let's use 12
Jill lost 4/12
Bill lost 2/12
Jack lost 3/12
Add them together = 9/12
reduce by dividing by 3.
total of 3/4 spilt
48 divided into 4 parts then multiplied by 3 of those parts
48 / 4 * 3 = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
One inch. There are 2.54 cm in an inch.
The correct change would be $2.93
Hope this helps!!
If you compare table values to answer choices, you can see right away that several don't work. The number of centimeters is greater than the number of inches, so adding to or multiplying the number of centimeters by some number more than 1 will not give you the smalller number that is inches.
While it may work for the first number (5 inches) to add 7.7 to get the first number of centimeters (12.7), you have to know that you can only add like to like. You can only add inches to inches (getting a result of inches), or centimeters to centimeters (getting a result of centimeters). From the point of view of the units involved, it is <em>nonsensical</em> to add a pure number to a number of inches and expect to get a number of centimeters.
So, we're down to the second choice:
- The number of inches is multiplied by 2.54 to find the number of centimeters.
_____
To find the pattern in the table, you can ...
- observe that the inch values differ by 1
- observe that the centimeter values differ by 2.54
- realize that the constant differences mean the relation between inches and centimeters is linear, and that a change in an inch value of 1 inch is multiplied by 2.54 to find the corresponding change in centimeter value.
