NO LINKS..... There are 39 people on a city bus. The ratio of adults to children is 10:3. At the next stop, 3 adults get off the

bus. What is the new ratio of adults to children on the bus? A. 3:1 B. 9:2 C. 7:3 D. 12:1

Since the ratio is 10:3 we can find the total number of children and adults by finding how many times 13 (10+3) goes into 39. 39 / 13 = 3 so we can take the original 10:3 ratio and just scale it up to fit the whole group 10:3 * 3 -> 30:9:

From here it gets a little easier we know three adults of the 30 get off at the next stop bringing us to 27. So now our ratio is 27:9 we can simplify that down to 3:1 to get our final answer. Hope that helps!

A ball is thrown up in the air, and it's height (in feet) as a function of time (in seconds) can be written as h(t) = -16t2 + 32
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1) Using properties of the quadratic equation:

Here the height equation is:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 6

We can see that the leading coefficient is negative, this means that the arms of the graph will open downwards.

Then, the vertex of the quadratic equation will be the maximum.

Remember that for a general quadratic equation:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = y

the x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/2a

Then in our case, the vertex is at:

t = -32/(2*-16) = 1

The maximum height will be the height equation evaluated in this time:

h(1) = -16*1^2 + 32*1 + 6 = 22

The maximum height is 22ft

2) Second method, using physics.

We know that an object reaches its maximum height when the velocity is equal to zero (the velocity equal to zero means that, at this point, the object stops going upwards).

If the height equation is:

h(t) = -16*t^2 + 32*t + 6

the velocity equation is the first derivation of h(t)

Remember that for a function f(x) = a*x^n

we have that:

df(x)/dx = n*a*x^(n-1)

Then:

v(t) = dh(t)/dt = 2*(-16)*t + 32 + 0

v(t) = -32*t + 32

Now we need to find the value of t such that the velocity is equal to zero:

v(t) = 0 = -32*t + 32

       32*t = 32

            t = 32/32 = 1

So the maximum height is at t = 1

(same as before)

Now we just need to evaluate the height equation in t = 1:

h(1) = -16*1^2 + 32*1 + 6 = 22

The maximum height is 22ft

What is the area of rectangle ABCD?
kotegsom [21]

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. The area of the rectangle is 12 units². Thus, the correct option is A.

<h3>What is an area?</h3>

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. It is measured in square units such as cm2, m2, and so on. To find the area of a square formula or another quadrilateral, multiply its length by its width.

As per the given information, the graph of the rectangle can be made as shown below. It can be observed from the graph that the length of the rectangle and width of the rectangle are 4 units and 3 units, respectively. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is,

Area = 4 units × 3 units = 12 units²

Hence, the area of the rectangle is 12 units². Thus, the correct option is A.
