A hot air balloon leaves the ground and ascends at a rate of 5 feet per minute for 4 minutes.

Mathematics

When the balloon is on the ground, it is at point 0. It starts to go up at 5 f/m for a time of 4 minutes. So we will multiply 5 by 4 to get 20. At this point, the balloon is 20 feet off the ground. However, we now know that the balloon descends at 2 f/m at a time of 7 minutes. So we must multiply 2 by 7 to get 14. So we know it was at 20, and then it went down by 14.

20 - 14 = 6 feet

This means that the balloon is now 6 feet above the ground.

I hope I've helped! :)

Solve the equation by completing the square 5x(x+6)=-50
motikmotik
First lets distribute the 5x 
5x^2 + 30x = -50

Lets divide every term by 5 
x^2 + 6x = -10 

To complete the square we have to half the b value, which in this case is 6. Then square it. 
Half of 6 is 3, 3 squared is 9 

Add that to both sides of the equation 
x^2 + 6x + 9 = -1 

Find the binomial squared
(x+3)^2 (If you're wondering how i got that please comment) 

(x+3)^2 = -1 

Take the square root of the equation of both sides
(x+3) = +/- i
x = -3 +/- i
x = -3 - i
and 
x = -3 + i

Free fall reaches 216km per hour. What is rate in meters per second.? How many meters fall during 20 seconds free fall?
lakkis [162]

Given,

Rate of free fall = 216 km/h

Solution,

km/h to m/s is converted as follows :

216\ \dfrac{km}{h}=216\times \dfrac{1000\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\=60\ m/s

So, the rate of fall is 60 m/s.

If t = 20 s

Assume, initial velocity = 0

It will move under the action of gravity.

Using equation of motion,

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 20^2\\\\h=2000\ m

Hence, this is all for the solution.
