A book falls from a shelf that is 5 feet above the floor. A model for the height h in feet if an object dropped from an initial

height of h₀ feet is h=-16t² + h₀, where t is the time in seconds after the object is dropped. Use this model to determine approximately how long it took for the book to reach the ground.

Answer:

About 0.559 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The height equation is:

h=-16t^2+h_0

Where h_0 is the initial height of the book, which is 5, so we can write:

h=-16t^2+5

Now, we want time it took for the book to reach ground (h = 0)

So, we substitute h = 0 and solve for t:

h=-16t^2+5\\0=-16t^2+5\\16t^2=5\\t^2=0.3125\\t=0.5590\\t=0.559

It took about 0.559 seconds for the book to reach the ground

A book club has 200 members
nikklg [1K]
So these are decmials of the accutal total so

.32=32%
what makes this question easy is that there are 200 members so to convert the percents into accutall numbers so like .32=32%=64 people (since 200 is 2 times of 100)

A. fiction of 31-40 compared to 21-30
fiction 31-40=.38=38%=76 readers
fiction 21-30=.32=32%=64 readers
76-64=12
A is FALSE

B. so we want to know how many people are 31-40 and prefer fiction
so .38=38% and 38% of 200=76
B is FALSE

C 43 members are 21-30
so we look at the total row for the 21-30 people and see that .43 or 43% or 86 people are in the 21-30 age group
C is FALSE

D. 140 members prefer fiction
look at the total column for fiction and see that .70 like fiction .70=70%=140 people
D is TRUE

so A,B,C are FALSE
D is TRUE
