Answer:

45.05 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: d = vi t + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

d = distance      vi = initial velocity (m/s)    

t = time (s)     a = acceleration (m/s^{2})

m is meters and s is seconds. They are units of measurement so leave them be.

Assuming the object is simply dropped, the initial velocity is 0 since the object was not moving before it was dropped.

The distance is 725 feet, which is 220.98 meters.

The acceleration is 9.81m/s^{2} since that is the acceleration of Earth's gravity, aka free fall.

Time is what we are trying to find so just leave it as the variable t.

So plug the values into the equation:

220.98m = (0)(t) + \frac{1}{2} (9.81m/s^{2})(t)

220.98m = (4.905m/s^{2})(t)

45.0519877676s = t

t = 45.05s

Remember to pay attention to units because your answer will be wrong otherwise

Larry buys a tent that is on sale for 25% off the original price. The original price is $80 more than the sale price. What is th
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The original price of the tent = $320

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be =$ x

Discount offered  = 25% of the orignal price = \frac{25}{100}\times x=0.25\times x =\$ 0.25x

Original price is $80 more than sale price

Discount = Original price - Sale price = $80

So, we have

0.25x=80

We need to solve for x to find original price

Dividing both sides by 0.25

\frac{0.25}{0.25}x=\frac{80}{0.25}\\x=\$320

∴ The original price of the tent = $320
