Mathematics

Illusion [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

10(-2.5) = -25 since negative times positive is negative.

-25(-4)=100 since negative times negative is positive.

Basically, the negative inverts the sign so a negative negates a positive yielding a negative while a negative negates a negative yielding a positive.

Think of it as not not vs not

You invested a total of $25000 at 3% and 4.5% simple interest. During one year, the two accounts earned $900. How much did you i
Sedaia [141]
A:amount of money invested in the account with 3% simple interest
B: amount of money invested in the account with 4.5% simple interest
a+b=25000 ——>a=25000-b

0.03a+0.045b=900
30a+45b=900000
2a+3b=60000

2(25000-b)+3b=60000
50000-2b+3b=60000
B=10000
A=25000-10000=15000

the size of a rectangular computer screen is determined by the length of its diagonal. tom buys a 52cm screen that is 33 cm high
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

40.20cm approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

given data

We are told that the dimension of a computer screen

diagonal= 52 cm

height= 33cm

Length = ?

Required

The length of the base of the screen

Step two

Let us use Pythagoras theorem to find the length of the base

Hyp^2= Opp^2+ Adj^2

52^2= 33^2+ L^2

2704= 1089+L^2

L^2= 2704-1089

L^2= 1615

L=√1615

L= 40.20cm approx

<u>The length is 40.20cm approx.</u>

A rocket is launched from a tower what time will the rocket reach its max
Lena [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A science class designed a ball launcher and tested it by shooting a tennis ball up and off the top of a 15-story building. They determined that the motion of the ball could be described by the function: h(t) = -16t2 + 144t + 160, where ‘t’ represents the time the ball is in the air in seconds and h(t) represents the height, in feet, of the ball above the ground at time t.

a) Graph the function h(t) = -16t2 + 144t + 160 (see below)

      b) What is the height of the building?

The height of the building is also the height of the tennis ball before it is launched into the air. This occurs when t=0 so substitute 0 for t and you get:

H(0) = -16(0)2 + 144(0) + 160

The height of the building is 160 feet.

 c) At what time did the ball hit the ground?

The ball hits the ground when the height is 0. Therefore, we are looking for a solution to: -16t2 + 144t + 160 = 0

Use the quadratic formula or put this into a calculator. The solution is t=10 and -1, but only 10 makes sense. Therefore, the ball hits the ground at 10 seconds.

  d) At what time did the ball reach its maximum height?

You can put this into the calculator or you can realize that the maximum height is also

− the vertex. The x-value (‘t’ in this case) is 2

−144

which is (2)(−16) = 4.5.

Therefore, the ball reached its maximum height at 4.5 seconds.

   e) What is the maximum height of the ball?

We calculated the time of the maximum height (4.5 seconds). Therefore, substitute 4.5 into the function to find the maximum height.

-16(4.5)2 + 144(4.5) + 160

The maximum height is 484 feet.
