Answer:

We note that the equation that is compatible with the given equation is the kinematic equation of free fall where;

t² = 39.2 × 2/9.81

From which we have;

The time it takes the snowball to reach the ground is approximately 2.83 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the building from which the ball is dropped, h = 39.2 m

The equation of the dropped a snowball, is given as follows;

t² = 39.2 × 9.8

Using the From the equation of free fall, we have;

s = u·t + 1/2·g·t²

Where;

u = The initial velocity = 0 m/s

t = The time of flight

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore, we get;

∴ s = The height from which the snowball is dropped = 39.2 m

Therefore, we get;

39.2 = 0×t + 1/2×9.81×t²

∴ t² = 39.2 × 2/9.81  ≈ 7.99

t = √(7.99) ≈ 2.83

The time it takes the snowball to reach the ground, t ≈ 2.83 s.

Answer:

14 rides

Step-by-step explanation:

16 = 0.79x + 4.5

11.5 = 0.79x

x = 14.55 or 14

rounding down because it can't go over $16.

0.79(14) + 4.5 = $15.56

Answer:

r = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

If M is the midpoint of DE, that would mean that the distance from M to D and M to E would be the same.

This creates the equation 1-8r=13-5r.

Now it's just simple algebra.

You add 8r to both sides, creating 1=13+3r. Then, you subtract 13 from both sides, getting 3r=-12. Dividing both sides by 3 and solving for r, you get r=-4.

Checking our answer, you see that 1-8(-4)=1-(-32)=1+32=33, and 13-5(-4)=13-(-20)=13+20=33.

Find two consecutive odd integers whose product is 1443
liberstina [14]

Let's x represents the first odd integer

The next consecutive integer would be represented as x+2.

So x and x+2 being multiplied together will give us 1443:

(x)(x+2)=1443

x^2+2x=1443

x^2+2x-1443=0

By solving the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, x will equal to 37 and -39.

Since the problem says "integers", so I'm assuming two pairs of consecutive integers would be ok.

With that said you 1st pair will be: 37,39

Your second pair will be: -37,-39.
