Answer: The height of the ball at time t is given as h = -16t² + 14t + 6 while the height of the receiver hand at time t is given as h = -16t² + 10t + 8
What is an equation?
An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.
A quarterback throws a football toward a receiver from a height of 6 ft. The initial vertical velocity of the ball is 14 ft/s. At the same time that the ball is thrown, the receiver raises his hands to a height of 8 ft and jumps up with an initial vertical velocity of 10 ft/s.
The height of the ball at time t is given as h = -16t² + 14t + 6 while the height of the receiver hand at time t is given as h = -16t² + 10t + 8
Old price: p1 = $ 3.90;
New price: p2 = $ 3.40.
The percentual decrease is given by
d(%) = [ (p2 - p1) / p1 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ (3.40 - 3.90) / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = [ - 0.50 / 3.90 ] * 100 %
d(%) = - 0.128 * 100 %
d(%) = - 12.8 % (approximately)
So the price fell 12.8 % approximately.
I hope this helps. =)
