$x = - 3 + \frac{5 \sqrt{2} }{2} \\ - 3 - \frac{5 \sqrt{2} }{2}$
$x = .5355339 \\ - 6.5355339$

I think that's what your looking for

A baseball player throws a 95mph fastball straight up into the air. The position equation, which gives the height of the ball at

Lana71 [14]

Set s(t) = 0 which means it hits the ground. The formula doesn't fit the parameters given as it shows that the pitcher is standing on something 37 feet high.
<span>s(t)=-16t^2+140t+37 and has an initial velocity of 140.
Graphing or solving this, t= 9 seconds when it hits the ground.
The velocity V(t) is the derivative of s(t)
V(t) = -32t+140
V(9) = -148 ft/second which is going down

Shirley is going to have her home painted. Tim"s painting charges $250 plus $14 per hour. Colorful paints charges $22 per hour.

Advocard [28]

It would take greater than 31.25 hours for Tim's price to be better. So in terms of whole hours it would take at least 32 hours of work for Tim's price to be better.

How can you tell if a point is a solution to a system of equations?

Anna35 [415]

Answer: you have to substitute them into the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

example: x = 2y - 6

lets say you test 4/5 so it would be 4 = 2(5) - 6

this equals 4 = 10 - 6 which is true

so that is how you test to see if the equation is right

remember the first number goes to "x" and the second one goes to y

hope this helps mark me brainliest if you can

Given the function g(x) = 4(3)x, Section A is from x = 1 to x = 2 and Section B is from x = 3 to x = 4.

Rudik [331]

The question is defective, or at least is trying to lead you down the primrose path.
The function is linear, so the rate of change is the same no matter what interval (section) of it you're looking at.
The "rate of change" is just the slope of the function in the section. That's
(change in f(x) ) / (change in 'x') between the ends of the section.
In Section A:Length of the section = (1 - 0) = 1f(1) = 5f(0) = 0change in the value of the function = (5 - 0) = 5Rate of change = (change in the value of the function) / (size of the section) = 5/1 = 5
In Section B:Length of the section = (3 - 2) = 1 f(3) = 15f(2) = 10change in the value of the function = (15 - 10) = 5Rate of change = (change in the value of the function) / (size of the section) = 5/1 = 5
Part A:The average rate of change of each section is 5.
Part B:The average rate of change of Section B is equal to the average rate of change of Section A.
Explanation:The average rates of change in every section are equalbecause the function is linear, its graph is a straight line,and the rate of change is just the slope of the graph.

How can I answer "write a problem that can be solved by acting it out and with using reasoning?"

Zielflug [23.3K]

So acting, eh?

you can walk 10 steps in 5 seconds
how many steps can you walk in 25 seconds?
(walk to test this thingie)
reasoning is 25 is 5 times 5 so 10 times 5=50 so 50 steps
