What does h(3.2) represent?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

the height of the rock 3.2 seconds after it is propelled

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 28t + 500 represents the height of a rock t seconds after it is propelled by a slingshot

Let

t------> the time in seconds

h----> the the height of a rock after it is propelled by a slingshot in meters

we know that

h(t)=-16t^{2} +28t+500

For x=3.2\ sec

Find the value of h(t)

h(3.2)=-16(3.2)^{2} +28(3.2)+500=425.76\ meters

therefore

h(3.2) represent the height of the rock 3.2 seconds after it is propelled

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Help me plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz
vagabundo [1.1K]
If two shapes are 'similar', it means that the dimensions of the shapes have the same ratio towards each other. In this example, we can see that the side with a length of 2 correlates to the side with a length of 4. That means, the scaling ratio is 4:2, which can be reduced to 2:1.

The next step is to look at the other side. We know that the width of the smaller shape is 1, and that the second shape is twice the size of the smaller shape (which is what a scale of 2:1 means). Therefore, you just need to multiply the known width by two to get the unknown.

1 * 2 = 2

The missing side _d_ has a length of 2.
Hope that helped =)

A gerbil cage,priced at $18, is discounted 20% for one week, and then this price is marked up 20%. is the price back to 20% expl
stiks02 [169]
No, it isn't!

first, the discount is 20 percent of 18 dollars, that is 18/5=3.6

this means that during the first week the prize is 18-3.6=14.4

now, the prize is marked up 20 % of 14.4! this is 2.88

so the prize later will be 14.4+2.88, that is 17.28, not 18

what is relevant here is what a number is a percent OF

F(x) = -3(x+4)(x-6) x intercepts
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

x = - 4, x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercepts let y = 0 , that is

- 3(x + 4)(x - 6) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
