22. The height of a projectile as a function of time

Mathematics
1 answer:
ira [324]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The ball is six feet above the ground after two seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a projectile as a function of time is modeled by the function:

\displaystyle h(t) = -2.5t^2 + 5t + 6

And we want to determine after how many seconds is the ball six feet above the ground.

In other words, we can let h(t) = 6 and solve for <em>t</em>. This yields:

\displaystyle (6) = -2.5t^2 + 5t + 6

Solve for <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle \begin{aligned}6 &= -2.5t^2 + 5t + 6 \\ 0 &= -2.5t^2 + 5t \\ 2.5t^2 - 5t &= 0 \\ 2.5t(t-2) &= 0 \end{aligned}<em />

By the Zero Product Property:

2.5t = 0\text{ or } t - 2 = 0

Hence:

t = 0\text{ or } t = 2

In conclusion, the ball is six feet above the ground after two seconds.

In the figure shown e is the midpoint of segment bd and ae = ec . choose the correct statement(s)
forsale [732]

Answer:

Triangle ABE and triangle CDE are congruent by using SAS theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that e is the midpoint of BD and AE=EC.

BE\cong DE             (E is midpoint of BD)

Angle AEB and angle CED are vertical opposite angle and the vertical opposite angles are always same.

\angle AEB\cong \angle CED

AE=EC                 (Given)

So by using SAS theorem of congruent triangles.

\triangle ABE\cong \triangle CED

Therefore triangle ABE and triangle CDE are congruent by using SAS theorem.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:  15504

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The center for research in data science has a vacancy of 5 interns under a research attachment program.

Number of students applied = 20

The combination of n people taking r at a time is given by :-

C(n,r)=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Since, all students fulfill the minimum CGPA criteria it means all 20 students are equally eligible.

Then , the number of ways to select a team of 5 interns from all 20 interns :-

C(20,5)=\dfrac{20!}{5!(20-5)!}\\\\=\dfrac{20\times19\times18\times17\times16\times15!}{5!15!}\\\\=15504

Hence, the number of ways to select a team of 5 interns. =
