Answer:

${ \bf{answer \: is \: { \underline{37 \frac{9}{20} }}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

When converting to fraction, you must get to know about the place values.

3 » tens

7 » ones

.4 » tenth

5 » hundredth

since last place value is hundredth, fraction denominator must be 100

therefore:

$37.45 = \frac{3745}{100}$

then you can reduce by 5:

$= \frac{3745 \div 5}{100 \div 5} \\ \\ = \frac{749}{20}$

In mixed fraction:

$= 37 \frac{9}{20}$

A ball is thrown in the air from a platform that is 96 feet above ground level with an initial vertical velocity of 32 feet per

Answer:

y = -16 (x - 1)^2 + 112

The object lands on the ground in approximately 3.6s

Explanation:

The equation given is that of a parabola.

Now the maximum (local) point of a parabola is the vertex. Therefore, if we want to rewrite our function in the form that would be used to find the maximum height, then that form must be the vertex form of a parabola.

The vertex form of a parabola is

$y=a(t-h)^2+k$

where (h, k) is the vertex.

The only question is, what is the vertex for our function h(t)?

Remember that if we have an equation of the form

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

then the x-coordinate of the vertex is

$h=-\frac{b}{2a}$

Now in our case b = 32 and a = -16; therefore,

$h=\frac{-32}{2(16)}=1$

We've found the value of the x-coordinate of the vertex. What about the y-coordinate? To get the y-coordinate, we put x = 1 into h(t) and get

$k=-16(1)+32(1)+96=112$

Hence, the y-coordindate is k = 112.

Therefore, the vertex of the parabola is (1, 112).

With the coordinates of the vertex in hand, we now write the equation of the parabola in vertex form.

$h(t)=a(t-1)^2+112$

The only problem is that we don't know what the value of a is. How do we find a?

Note that the point (0, 96) lies on the parabola. In other words,

$h(0)=-16(0)^2+32(0)+96=96$

Therefore, the vertex form of the parabola must also contain the point (0, 96).

Putting in t = 0, h = 96 into the vertex form gives

$96=a(0-1)^2+112$ $96=a+112$

subtracting 112 from both sides gives

$a=-16$

With the value of a in hand, we can finally write the equation of the parabola on vertex form.

$\boxed{h\mleft(t\mright)=-16\left(t-1\right)^2+112.}$

Now when does the object hit the ground? In other words, for what value of t is h(t) = 0? To find out we just have to solve the following for t.

$h(t)=0.$

We could either use h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 96 or the h(t) = -16(t - 1)^2 + 112 for the above equation. But it turns out, the vertex form is more convenient.

Thus we solve,

$-16\left(t-1\right)^2+112=0$

Now subtracting 112 from both sides gives

$-16(t-1)^2=-112$

Dividing both sides by -16 gives

$(t-1)^2=\frac{-112}{-16}$ $(t-1)^2=7$

taking the square root of both sides gives

$t-1=\pm\sqrt{7}$

adding 1 to both sides gives

$t=\pm\sqrt{7}+1$

Hence, the two solutions we get are

$t=\sqrt{7}+1=3.6$ $t=-\sqrt{7}+1=-1.6$

Now since time cannot take a negative value, we discard the second solution and say that t = 3.6 is our valid solution.

Therefore, it takes about 3.6 seconds for the object to hit the ground.

A house is valued at $118,000.00. The homeowner decides to add on a two-car garage that increased the value of the home by 15%.H

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

The value of the house after adding the garage is $135,700.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

value of house before adding garage = $118,200.00

we need to find the value of house after adding two car garage.

Solution,

Since after adding two car garage the value of the house increased by 15%.

So firstly we will find out the 15% of the value of the house after adding garage.

So we can say that;

15% of the value of the house after adding garage is equal to 15 divided by 100 the multiplied with the value of the house before adding garage.

15% of the value of the house after adding garage = $\frac{15}{100}\times118,000=\$17,700$

Now, The value of the house after adding garage is equal to the sum of value of house before adding garage and 15% of value of house before adding garage.

We can frame it in equation form as;

The value of the house after adding garage = $\$118,000+\$17,000=\$135,700$
