Answer:

the area after 6 years is  3,473 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area after 6 years is as follows:

= Area × (1 - decreased percentage)^number of years

= 4,800 km^2 × (1 - 5.25%)^6

= 4,800 km^2 × 0.9475^6

= 3,473 km^2

Hence, the area after 6 years is  3,473 km^2

The volume of a cone is 62.8 cubic inches. The height of the cone is 15 inches. What is the radius of the cone, rounded to the n
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

R = sqrt 3 * (V /( pi * h))

V = 62.8

pi = 3.14

h = 15

now we sub

R = sqrt 3 * (62.8 / (3.14 * 15)

R = sqrt 3 * (62.6 / 47.1)

R = sqrt 3 * 1.33

R = sqrt 3.99

R = 1.9 rounds to 2 inches <===

The picture below shows a box sliding down a ramp:
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

AC=15.1\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

The function sine of angle 68 degrees is equal to divide the opposite side SB by the hypotenuse AC

so

sin(68\°)=\frac{AB}{AC}

substitute the values and solve for AC

sin(68\°)=\frac{14}{AC}

AC=\frac{14}{sin(68\°)}

AC=15.1\ ft

The function h(t) = -16t^2 + 16t represents the height (in feet) of a horse (t) seconds after it jumps during a steeplechase.
Vladimir79 [104]
A.) To find the maximum height, we can take the derivative of h(t). This will give us the rate at which the horse jumps (velocity) at time t.

h'(t) = -32t + 16

When the horse reaches its maximum height, its position on h(t) will be at the top of the parabola. The slope at this point will be zero because the line tangent to the peak of a parabola is a horizontal line. By setting h'(t) equal to 0, we can find the critical numbers which will be the maximum and minimum t values.

-32t + 16 = 0

-32t = -16

t = 0.5 seconds

b.) To find out if the horse can clear a fence that is 3.5 feet tall, we can plug 0.5 in for t in h(t) and solve for the maximum height.

h(0.5) = -16(0.5)^2 + 16(-0.5) = 4 feet

If 4 is the maximum height the horse can jump, then yes, it can clear a 3.5 foot tall fence.

c.) We know that the horse is in the air whenever h(t) is greater than 0. 

-16t^2 + 16t = 0

-16t(t-1)=0

t = 0 and 1

So if the horse is on the ground at t = 0 and t = 1, then we know it was in the air for 1 second.
