Conic section (or simply conic) is a curve obtained as the intersection of the surface of a cone with a plane. The three types of conic section are the hyperbola, the parabola, and the ellipse. The circle is a special case of the ellipse, previously called the fourth type. Planes that pass through the vertex of the cone will intersect the cone in a point, a line or a pair of intersecting lines, called degenerate conics.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>given:</h3>

h(t) = -4t² + 12t + 100

<h3>to solve:</h3>

t

<h3>tips and formulas:</h3>

<u>the</u><u> </u><u>Ball</u><u> </u><u>will</u><u> </u><u>hit </u><u>the</u><u> ground</u><u> </u><u>when</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> height</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>0</u>

<h3>let's solve: </h3>

$step - 1 : \: define$

$- 4 {t}^{2} + 12t + 100 = 0$

$step - 2 : \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \: - 4$

${t}^{2} - 3t - 25 = 0$

$step - 3 : \\ solve \: the \: quadratic$

$formula : \\ x = \frac{ - b± \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}$

$define \: a ,b \: and \: c \\ which \: are \: 1, - 3 \: and \: - 25 \: respectively$

$t = \frac{ - ( - 3)± \sqrt{ {( - 3)}^{2} - 4.1. - 25 } }{2.1}$

$t = \frac{ 3± \sqrt{ 9 + 100} }{2}$

$t = \frac{3 + \sqrt{ 109 } }{2}$

$t = \frac{3 - \sqrt{ 109 } }{2}$

$t = 6.7 \\ t = - 3.7$

$as \: we \: know \: time \: cannot \: be \: negative$

$\huge \therefore \: t = 6.7$

A cube-shaped water tank having 6 ft side lengths is being filled with water. The bottom is solid metal but the sides of the tan

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

0.033 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g = 32.2 ft/s2 and h be the maximum height that water can be filled before the sides shatter.

Pressure is distributed from 0 to maximum at the bottom like the following equation:

$P = \rho gh$

So the force generated by water pressure on the side of the tank is

$F = PA = \rho ghs/2$

where s = 6ft is the side length of the tank. This force cannot be larger than 200lb

$\rho ghs/2 \leq 200$

$62.4*32.2*h*6/2 \leq 200$

$h \leq 0.033 ft$

Norman bought 5/6 pounds of cookies. He ate 3/5 cookies. What was the weight of the cookies he ate

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Half a pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of pounds he ate, multiply the fractions.

$\frac{5}{6}*\frac{3}{5} = \frac{15}{30}=\frac{1}{2}$

He ate 1/2 a pound.

Solve 3x+k= c for x.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

x = $\frac{c-k}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x + k = c ( isolate the term 3x by subtracting k from both sides )

3x = c - k ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = $\frac{c-k}{3}$
