Answer:

t = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tt (t-5)=5(t-5)+8$

1) Expand

$\tt t-5=5t-17$

2) Add 5 to both sides

$\tt t -5+5=5t-17+5$

$\tt t=5t-12$

3) Subtract 5t from both sides

$\tt t-5t=5t-12-5t$

$\tt -4t=-12$

4) Divide both sides by -4

$\tt \cfrac{-4t}{-4}=\cfrac{-12}{-4}$

$\tt t=3$

Hope it helps! :)

A ball is thrown from an initial height of 2 meters with an initial upward velocity of 9/ms

Balls height $h= 2 +9t -5t^2$

To find all values of t for which the ball's height is 3 meters

We plug in 3 for h and solve for t

$h= 2 +9t -5t^2$

$3 = 2 +9t -5t^2$

Solve for t

$0= -1+ 9t -5t^2$

$5t^2 - 9t + 1 = 0$

Solve using quadratic formula

$t= \frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

$t= \frac{9+- \sqrt{(-9)^2-4*5*1} }{2*5}$

After simplifying this,

$t= \frac{9+\sqrt{61}}{10}$ = 0.11898

$t= \frac{9-\sqrt{61}}{10}$ = 1.68102

the values of t for which the ball's height is 3 meters= 0.12 sec , 1.68 sec

Find the

Answer:

x = 32 degrees

Angle ABC (left one): 153 degrees

Angle CBD (right one): 27 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total angle will be 180 degrees, as it's a continuous straight line.

We can set the sum of our 2 angles equal to 180 degrees and solve for x.

(4x + 25) + (x - 5) = 180

4x + 25 + x - 5 = 180

4x + x + 25 - 5 = 180

5x + 20 = 180

5x = 160

x = 160/5 = 32

x = 32

Angle ABC:

4x + 25 = 4 * 32 + 25 = 128 + 25 = 153

153 degrees

Angle CBD:

x - 5 = 32 - 5 = 27

27 degrees

We can confirm this by adding the 2 angles together. We should get 180 degrees.

153 + 27 = 180

Checks out!

Chang is estimating the volume of his bathtub the actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal chang’s estimate is 31 gal find the abs

stepladder [879]

<h3>The absolute error is 6</h3><h3>The percent error is 16.22 %</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Actual volume of his bathtub is 37 gal

Estimate is 31 gal

<em><u>Find the absolute error</u></em>

Absolute Error = | Measured Value - Actual Value |

Absolute Error = | 31 - 37 |

Absolute Error = 6

<em><u>Find the percent error</u></em>

$Percent\ error = \frac{\text{estimate - actual}}{actual} \times 100$

Substituting we get,

$percent\ error = \frac{31-37}{37} \times 100\\\\percent\ error = \frac{-6}{37} \times 100\\\\percent\ error = -16.22$

Negative sign means percent decrease

Thus percent error is 16.22 %
