Answer:
The first listed equation is the correct equation to solve
The correct answer is: t = 5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let me mention first that there is an error in the statement that the gravitational pull of the Earth is 16 ft/s^2. It is in fact 32 ft/s^2, and the actual equation uses half of the acceleration multiplied by the square of the variable time, so it gives as final expression :

and we want to find the value/s for "t" that make this equation equal zero (when it reaches the ground and the object just touches the ground. This makes the equation we want to solve:

which solving for "t" becomes:

So we adopt the positive answer (positive time) since the negative value has no physical meaning for this problem.
That is: t = 5 seconds
Answer:
it's A because it's not B or C
Answer:
62.84
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of both cones is approximately 12.57
formula= pi*r^2*h/3
Volume of the cylinder is approximately 37.7
formula= pi*r^2*h
you add the volumes
12.57+12.57+37.7
= 62.84
First we will convert those radian angles to degrees, since my mind works better with degrees. Let's work one at a time. First,

. If we start at the positive x-axis and measure out 315 we end up in the 4th quadrant with a reference angle of 45 with the positive x-axis. The side across from the reference angle is -1, the side adjacent to the angle is 1, and the hypotenuse is sqrt2. The cotangent of this angle, then is 1/-1 which is -1. As for the second one, converting radians to degrees gives us that

. Sweeping out that angle has us going around the origin more than once and ending up in the first quadrant with a reference angle of 30° with the positive x-axis. The side across from the angle is 1, the side adjacent to the angle is √3, and the hypotenuse is 2. Therefore, the secant of that angle is 2/√3.
