9514 1404 393

Answer:

  27%

Step-by-step explanation:

The price multiplier for the first discount is (1 -55%) = 0.45.

The price multiplier for the second discount is (1 -40%) = 0.60.

Then the price multiplier for the two discounts together is ...

  (0.45)(0.60) = 0.27

You end up paying 27% of the original price.

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 70 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

a) Average velocity at 0.1 s is 696 ft/s.

b) Average velocity at 0.01 s is 7536 ft/s.

c) Average velocity at 0.001 s is 75936 ft/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 70 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by y = 70t-16t^2.

To find : The average velocity for the time period beginning when t = 2 and lasting.  a. 0.1 s. , b. 0.01 s. , c. 0.001 s.

Solution :    

a) The average velocity for the time period beginning when t = 2 and lasting 0.1 s.

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.1\ s}=\frac{\text{Change in height}}{0.1}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.1\ s}=\frac{h_{2.1}-h_2}{0.1}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.1\ s}=\frac{(70(2.1)-16(2.1)^2)-(70(0.1)-16(0.1)^2)}{0.1}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.1\ s}=\frac{69.6}{0.1}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.1\ s}=696\ ft/s

b) The average velocity for the time period beginning when t = 2 and lasting 0.01 s.

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.01\ s}=\frac{\text{Change in height}}{0.01}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.01\ s}=\frac{h_{2.01}-h_2}{0.01}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.01\ s}=\frac{(70(2.01)-16(2.01)^2)-(70(0.01)-16(0.01)^2)}{0.01}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.01\ s}=\frac{75.36}{0.01}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.01\ s}=7536\ ft/s

c) The average velocity for the time period beginning when t = 2 and lasting 0.001 s.

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.001\ s}=\frac{\text{Change in height}}{0.001}  

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.001\ s}=\frac{h_{2.001}-h_2}{0.001}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.001\ s}=\frac{(70(2.001)-16(2.001)^2)-(70(0.001)-16(0.001)^2)}{0.001}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.001\ s}=\frac{75.936}{0.001}

(\text{Average velocity})_{0.001\ s}=75936\ ft/s

Quadrilateral FGHI is similar to quadrilateral JKLM. Find the measure of side JK
Stells [14]

Answer:

Heyyyy!!

The answer is 66.9

please read the explanation... it will help... I promise

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay... Here we go...

The context mentions that the two quadrilaterals are similar... meaning their sides are proportional...

So... you basically have to find the scale factor...

(the math itself is easier than the explanation...

51/16 = 3.1875 (that is the number we multiplied the sides of quadrilateral FGHI to get quadrilateral JKLM...

so to get side JK all you have to do is multiply that scale factor by side FG... which after the use of a calculator results in 66.9 (i rounded, and used a calculator... lol)

but yeah... i hope this helps...
