If both Pamela and Debbie can shelf the same number of books at the end, the smallest number of books each could have shelved is 182

The number of books that Pamela can shelf at a time = 26

The number of books that Debbie can shelf at a time = 7

If both Pamela and Debbie can shelf the same number of books at the end, the smallest number of books each could have shelved is the least common multiple of 26 and 7

The Least common multiple of 26 and 7  = 182

Therefore, if both Pamela and Debbie can shelf the same number of books at the end, the smallest number of books each could have shelved is 182

Vanessa throws a tennis ball in the air. The function h(t) = -15t2 + 45t + 10 represents the distance in feet, that the ball is
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

43.75feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the tennis ball expressed as;

h(t) = -15t^2 + 45t + 10

At maximum height, the velocity of the ball is zero

v = dh/dt

dh/dt = -30t + 45

Since dh/dt = 0, hence;

0 = -30t + 45

30t = 45

t = 45/30

t = 3/2

t = 1.5secs

Substitute t = 1.5 into the expression given

h(1.5) = -15(1.5)^2 + 45(1.5) + 10

h(1.5) = -15(2.25)+67.5+10

h(1.5) = -33.75+77.5

h(1.5) = 43.75feet

Hence the maximum height of the ball is 43.75feet
