In a video game, a bird is flung on a sling shot and follows a parabolic path. The path of the bird can be modeled by the equati

on h=-16t²+55t+50, where h is the height of the bird t and is the amount of time, in seconds, the bird has been in the air. How long will it take the bird to reach a height of 40 feet in the air for the first time?

Answer:

  3.61 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The bird starts 50 feet in the air, so will come down to a height of 40 feet after 3.61 seconds.

We want to solve h = 40.

  40 = -16t^2 +55t +50

  16t^2 -55t -10 = 0

  t = (55 +√(55^2 -4(16)(-10)))/(2(16)) = (55 + √3665)/32 ≈ 3.61060

The bird will be 40 ft above the ground the first time after about 3.61 seconds.

Solve equation (n-1)(n+6)(n+5)=0
Vika [28.1K]
Answer:
1, -6 and -5 

Explanation:
To solve the equation means to get the values of n which satisfy the given equation.
The equation given is:
(n-1) (n+6) (n+5) = 0
This equation will be true if any of the terms (brackets) is equal to zero.
This means that:
either n-1 = 0 .............> n = 1
or n + 6 = 0 ................> n = -6
or n + 5 = 0 ................> n = -5

Hope this helps :)

Help me with this question plzz
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

To check if a graph is a function, use the vertical line test.  Use a ruler or straight edge, or simply imagine a vertical line.  Move the line across the graph.  The line should only intersect the graph at one point at any time.

B isn't a function because the line intersects the graph at two places (when x = 0).

C isn't a function because the line intersects the graph at two places (between x = -1 and x = 1).

D isn't a function because the line intersects the graph at two places (when x < -1 and when x > 1).

Only A is a function.

How much work is done when a taxi driver lifts a 100N100N suitcase 0.7m0.7m into the trunk of his cab
Rudiy27

Answer:

70 joules

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information

100N and 0.7 m

What is workdone?

We say that Work is done if a force which is applied to an object is able to move that object. We calculate the value of The work by multiplying the force by what is known to be the movement of the object.

(Workdone = Force x distance).

A force of 100 newtons, in this question moves an object 0.7 meters

Workdone =

100N x 0.7

= 70 joules

Thank you!
