Divide total distance by total time:

5 feet / 2 seconds = 2 and 1/2 feet per second.

What is a quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation of the second degree in x. The quadratic equation in its standard form is ax²+ bx + c = 0, where a and b are the coefficients, x is the variable, and c is the constant term.

-16t²+32t+5

by comparing this equation to the standard form of the quadratic equation we get

a=-16 b=32 c=5

the time (t) needed for the ball to reach its maximum height using the axis of symmetry formula (x = -b/2a) for a parabola:

the time at which the ball reaches the maximum height using the axis of symmetry formula is (x=-b/2a)

t = -32/2×-16

t=1sec

by putting h(t) to zero and determining the time (t) when the ball hits the ground:

-16t²+32t+5=0

-16(t²+2t+5/16)=0

t²-2t-5/16=0

(t)²-2×1×t+(1)²-5/16=1

(t-1)²=21/16

t-1=√21/√16

t=1+4.58/4

t=1+1.145

t=2.245sec

Courier charges for packages to a certain destination are 65 cents for the first 250 grams and 10 cents for each additional 100
SpyIntel [72]
Well, drop 65 cents (the first 250 grams) to get 90 remaining cents. These are 900 additional grams. So, the mass is 0.25+0.9=1.15 kg.

A company’s board of directors wants to form a committee of 3 of its members. There are 4 members to choose from. How many diffe
Ugo [173]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 board members and 3 committee members. You can solve this using combinations:

4C3 = 4!/(3!(4-3)!) = 4!/(3!1!) = 4

You can also solve this by recognizing that since there is one fewer committee spot than there are board members, there will be one possible committee excluding each of the 4 board members.

Ricky has 3/4 of a bag of Skittles. He wants to split the rest between between his 5 friends. What fraction of the bag will each
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

  • 3/20, with the assumptions below.

Explanation:

The question seems incomplete.

In order to show you the procedure, I make some assumptions.

Assuming that Ricky wants to split the full content of the 3/4 of a bag between his 5 friends, to find what fraction of the bag will each friend receive you must divide 3/4 by 5.

The operation is:

        \dfrac{3}{4}\div 5

Convert the whole number 5 into fraction using 1 as denominator:

       \dfrac{3}{4}\div \dfrac{5}{1}

Transform the division into multiplication changing the divisor into its reciprocal:

       \dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{5}

Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:

       \dfrac{3\times 1}{4\times 5}=\dfrac{3}{20}\leftarrow answer
