Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's FOIL this out and get it into standard form. That gives us:

h(t)=-4.9t^2+490 For #1, then:

The height of something when it is on the ground is 0; that means that the h(t) is 0. This allows us to factor the quadratic and solve for t:

-4.9t^2=-490 and divide both sides by 4.9 to get

t^2=100 so

t = 10. Notice that one of the factors for that quadratic is 10 - t. That factor represents the time it takes to hit the ground. So you might ask why, then, we FOILed this out in the first place if the answer was ight in front of our noses. The reason is becase of #2 that is asking us what the initial height of the object was. That is found in the standard form...in the constant in particular. The initial height is 490 m. That's how you know (because the constant represents the height from which an object is dropped in either free fall, which this is, or in parabolic motion).

Which of the following is not a true statement about pi?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Option D.The ratio of the radius of a circle to its circumference

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Verify each statement</em>

A) The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter

The statement is True

Because

C=\pi D

so

\pi=C/D

B) Approximated to be 3.14

The statement is True

Because \pi=3.14159265...

C) Approximated to be 22/7

The statement is True

Because

\frac{22}{7}=3.1423

D) The ratio of the radius of a circle to its circumference

The statement is not True

Because

\frac{r}{2\pi r}=\frac{1}{2\pi}
