Answer:

H = 60(3/4)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

After each bounce, the height it reach is 3/4 the previous one.

Let the height of nth bounce be denoted as h_n and the first bounce is h_1.

We are given that h_1 = 60 cm. Following the rule in the problem, we get:

h_2 = (3/4)h_1 = (3/4)60

h_3 = (3/4)h_2 = (3/4)*(3/4)60 = 60(3/4)^2

h_4 = (3/4)h_3 = (3/4)*60(3/4)^2= 60(3/4)^3

We see that h_n = 60(3/4)^n is the formula for the height for the nth bounce. Therefore, H = 60(3/4)^x is the answer.

I hope this helps! :)

A triangle has two constant sides of length 5 feet and 7 feet. The angle between these two sides is increasing at a rate of 0.9
o-na [289]

Answer:12.74 ft^2/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two sides of triangle of sides 5 ft and 7 ft

and angle between them is increasing at a rate of 0.9 radians per second

let \thetais the angle between them thus

Area of triangle when two sides and angle between them is given

A=\frac{ab\sin C}{2}

A=\frac{5\times 7\times \sin \theta }{2}

Differentiate w.r.t time

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{35\cos theta }{2}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} \theta }{\mathrm{d} t}

at \theta =\frac{\pi }{5}

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{35\times cos(\frac{\pi }{5})}{2}\times 0.9

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=12.74 ft^2/s

Craig Campanella and Edie Hall both have night jobs. Craig has every thirteenth night and Edie has every Fifth night off. How of
Andrews [41]

Craig has every 13th night and Edie has every 5th night off.

You have to find LCM - the Least Common Multiple that is the smallest ("least") number that both 13 and 5 will divide into.

Since numbers 13 and 5 are both prime, then LCM(13,5)=13·5=65.

This means, they will have the same every 65th night off.
