Answer:
240 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Figure is attached.
The distance the particle travels is the area under the v-t graph over the time interval from 0 min to 4 min. The reason you can't just multiply velocity by time is that the velocity is changing at a constant rate over the given time interval (the line is going upward--the particls is speeding up).
What's the area under the graph?
The red outline forms a trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is
where the <em>b</em>'s are the lengths of the two parallel base and <em>h</em> is the height (the distance between the bases).
Reading the graph carefully (notice the scales!)...

Answer:
a) The vertex of the graph is
, b)
, c) The equation of the parabola is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The tennis ball experiments a free fall, that is, an uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and in which effects from Earth's rotation and air viscocity are negligible. The height of the ball in time is represented by a second order polynomial. Hence, the vertex of the parabola is the initial point highlighted in graph.
The vertex of the graph is
.
b) If we know that
,
and
, then the value of
is:




c) The equation of the parabola is
.

so.. which of those fellows do we use?
well, the triangle gives us
the angle, 15 degrees, for elevation angle
the adjacent side, 50m
and we want the opposite side, the slide
so...who has only, the angle, opposite, and adjacent sides?
well, low and behold, is Ms tangent
thus

notice, "x" in the picture, is the distance from the ground up to the top of the waterslide, using that triangle, what we're getting is just the distance, from the shorter slide, to the taller one, or x - 15
thus, the opposite side is x -15
Answer:
32 i think
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for x.
Layout equation:
a/b
(2x−12)=c/d
Step 1: Multiply both sides by b.
2ax−12a=bc/d
Step 2: Multiply both sides by d.
2adx−12ad=bc
Step 3: Add 12ad to both sides.
2adx−12ad+12ad=bc+12ad
2adx=12ad+bc
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2ad.
2adx/2ad=12ad+bc/2ad
So the answer is x=12ad+bc/2ad.
