Answer:

<h2>Most explained:</h2>

40% = 100%

15 = (100% - 15% = 85%) 85% in Alaska

California = 15% of 40 = (0.15 x 40) = 6

Alaska = 85% of 40 = (0.85 x 40) = 34

<h2>The simple way (or the way i found it simple):</h2>

a ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground with an initial velocity of 60 ft/sec. how high will the ball go?

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The ball will go to maximum height of 56.25 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, a ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground. Initial velocity of the ball, v = 60 ft/sec

Initial height is 0 as the ball is thrown from ground. The equation of projectile is given by :

$h(t)=-16t^2+vt+h$

h = 0

$h(t)=-16t^2+60t$ ..............(1)

We need to find the maximum height reached by the ball. For maximum height,

$\dfrac{dh(t)}{dt}=0$

$\dfrac{d(-16t^2+60t)}{dt}=0$

t = 1.875 seconds

Put the values of t in equation (1). So,

$h(t)=-16(1.875)^2+60(1.875)$

h(t) = 56.25 meters

So, the ball will go to maximum height of 56.25 meters. Hence, this is teh required solution.

For a circle with a diameter of 6 meters, what is the measurement of a central angle (in degrees) subtended by an arc with a len

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

$\boxed{\boxed{\theta=150^{\circ}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

$\text{Arc length}=r\cdot \theta$

where,

r = radius,

θ = central angle in radian.

Given,

diameter = 6 m, so radius = 3 m.

$\text{Arc length}=\dfrac{5}{2}\pi$

Putting the values,

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{2}\pi=3\theta$

$\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{5}{2\times 3}\pi$

$\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{5}{6}\pi=\dfrac{5}{6}\times 180^{\circ}=150^{\circ}$
