A waterfall has a height of 1900 feet. A pebble is thrown upward from the top of the falls with an initial velocity of 12 feet p

er second. The height, h, of the pebble after t seconds is given by the equation h=-16t^2+12t+1900. How long after the pebble is thrown will it hit the ground?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h is the height of the pebble after a certain amount of time has gone by. Since we are told to find that time when the pebble is on the ground, we say that h = 0 since the height of something on the ground has no height at all. Then factor the quadratic.

-16t^2+12t+1900=0

Throw that into the quadratic formula or however you were taught to factor irrational quadratics (maybe completing the square?) to get that

t = 11.27869 sec and t = -10.52869 sec

Since we all know that time will never carry a negative value, we will disregard it and go with 11.27869 seconds. Not sure to where you are told to round.

What is the measure of &lt; C
Zepler [3.9K]
Well in a right angle triangle, we know that angle C would be 90 degrees, we can check this by solving for X and seeing if the expression 2x will give us a value of 90 degrees.

So 2x = 90
X = 90/2
X = 45 degrees.

90 = 2x
90 = 2(45)
90 = 90.

Thus since the equation is true, X = 45 degrees, we can also solve for the remaining angles knowing what X is.

Find an angle in the normal range (0° to 360°, or 0 to 2pi radians) whose terminal side points in the same direction as the term
elena55 [62]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Our angle is -312 degrees, but because angles on the unit circle are always periodic and repeat every 2π or 360°, that means if we add a certain multiple of 360 to -312, we should get an angle with the terminal side pointing in the same direction.

Let's add 360 to -312:

-312 + 360 = 48°

Thus, the answer is A.
