First find the time that the ball is level with the top of the building on its descent. You can do this by solving 280 = -16^2 + 48t + 280 for t. This gives t = 3 seconds .
Then when the ball reaches the ground the time t is obtained by solving 0 = -16t^2 + 48t + 280 This gives t = 5.94 seconds.
Answer in interval notation is (3, 5.94].
The Answer: (-b + 15) (15 - b)
Answer:
10.4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Write an equation for the total cost paid as a function of the # of miles driven:
L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x
and set this equal to $40.03 to determine the # of miles Lupita rode:
L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x = $40.03
Isolate the x term by subtracting $6.75 from both sides:
($3.20/mile)x = $40.03 - $6.75 = $33.28
Finally, divide both sides by ($3.20/mile):
x = $33.28 / ($3.20/mile)
= 10.4 miles
Lupita rode 10.4 miles in the taxi.
