$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x}{10}=\dfrac{42}{15}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 15x=42(10)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 15x=420$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{420}{15}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=28$

Identify the action-reaction pair when a softball player hits a home run

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. In softball when the catcher catches the ball the two forces present are the mitt on the ball and the ball on the mitt. The two are equal and in opposite directions.

3. Find f[h(a+4)], given the functions below. *

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

C 5a^2 +70a +240

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given these following functions:

$f(x) = 5x, g(x) = -2x + 1, h(x) = x^2 + 6x + 8$

h(a+4)

This function is:

$h(a+4) = (a+4)^2 + 6(a + 4) + 8$

$h(a+4) = a^2 + 8a + 16 + 6a + 24 + 8$

$h(a+4) = a^2 + 14a + 48$

f[h(a+4)]

$f(x) = 5x$

Thus

$f(h(a+4)) = f(a^2+14a+48) = 5(a^2 + 14a + 48) = 5a^2 + 70a + 240$

The correct answer is given by option C.

a football is fired upward with an initial speed of 800 feet per second. It is given that h=-12t^2+360t (h is the height of the

tangare [24]

Answer:

30 s

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball hits the ground h=0. To find the time t when this happens we must solve the equation h=0.

●h= 0

● -12t^2+360t =0

● t(-12t +360) = 0

● t = 0 or -12t +360 =0

● t=0 or -12t = -360

● t=0 or 12t =360

● t=0 or t=360/12

● t=0 or t= 30

The equation has two solutions.

The ball was fired with an initial speed of 800 feet per second so it cannot hit the ground at t=0.

So the ball hits the ground after 30 s.

There is a fire in the third floor of a building, 22 feet above the ground. The fire truck has a 16-foot tall ladder on top, and

Over [174]

Answer: Yes the ladder will reach the fire

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram for details.

The fire is at point A, while the top of the truck is at point C. The fire is actually burning at 22 feet off the ground, but because the fire truck itself is already 6 feet off the ground, the point that would serve as the base of the building would be 16 feet from the third floor (which is 22 feet minus 6 feet). Hence, point A to point B is 16 feet. So we need to calculate if line AC (from the truck to the fire at the third floor, labeled as b) shall equal the length of the ladder which is 16-foot long.

The angle of the ladder with the top of the truck is 75 degrees. Therefore,

Sin 75 = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 75 = 16/b

By cross multiplication we now have

b = 16/Sin 75

b = 16/0.9659

b = 16.56

If the distance from A to C is 16.56 feet, then the 16-foot long ladder would reach the fire.
