The motion of the rock thrown from the cliff which goes downwards due to

the gravitational force, is a free fall motion.

  • 125 represents; <u>A. The initial height of the rock</u>.

Reasons:

The given function that represents the height of the of the rock in feet <em>x</em> seconds after being thrown is; f(x) = 16·x² + 4·x + 125

At the initial height before being thrown from the cliff, we have;

The time, x = 0

The initial height is therefore;

The initial height f(0) = 16 × (0)² + 4 × (0) + 125 = 125

125 represents <u>A. The initial height of the rock</u>

What is 8 and 4/25 and as a mixed fraction or mixed number.
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Improper fraction for 8 4/25 is 204/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers in the mixed fraction are defined as follow

8 = whole number

4 = numerator

25 = denominator

 Multiply the whole number by the denominator

8 × 25 = 200

Add the product from Step 1 to the numerator

200 + 4 = 204

Write answer from Step 2 over the denominator

204/25

The mixed number 8 4/25 converted to improper fraction is therefore :

Find the sum of the following infinite geometric series, if it exists. 2 + 6 + 18 + 54 +… Does not exist 23,567 25,982 29,034
Sladkaya [172]

Option A: The sum for the infinite geometric series does not exist

Explanation:

The given series is 2+6+18+54+.......

We need to determine the sum for the infinite geometric series.

<u>Common ratio:</u>

The common difference for the given infinite series is given by

r=\frac{6}{2}=3

Thus, the common difference is r=3

<u>Sum of the infinite series:</u>

The sum of the infinite series can be determined using the formula,

S_{\infty}=\frac{a}{1-r}   where 0

Since, the value of r is 3 and the value of r does not lie in the limit 0

Hence, the sum for the given infinite geometric series does not exist.

Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.

dale has a square garden. He adds a 2-foot-wide walkway around his garden. If the total area of the walkway and garden is 196 sq
dem82 [27]
Let the side of the garden alone (without walkway) be x.  
Then the area of the garden alone is x^2.  
The walkway is made up as follows:

1) four rectangles of width 2 feet and length x, and 
 2) four squares, each of area 2^2 square feet.


The total walkway area is thus x^2 + 4(2^2) + 4(x*2).  

We want to find the dimensions of the garden.  To do this, we need to find the value of x.

Let's sum up the garden dimensions and the walkway dimensions:

x^2 + 4(2^2) + 4(x*2) = 196 sq ft

x^2 + 16 + 8x = 196 sq ft

x^2 + 8x - 180 = 0

(x-10(x+18) = 0

x=10 or x=-18.  We must discard x=-18, since the side length can't be negative.  We are left with x = 10 feet.

The garden dimensions are (10 feet)^2, or 100 square feet.
