As Juan continued his hitting practice showing off his abilities, one of the balls flew over the center field stands and into th

e parking lot. “Did you see that shot”, he yelled at the girls. “The ball hung in the air for at least 10 seconds”, he exclaimed.
The formula for this hit is:
h(x−) = 16+x2 8+3x 4 where h is the height of the ball and x is the number of seconds the ball is in the air.

I need help with part B

Answer:

A. Find h(10) = 0 . . . (it is not)

B. h(5.235) = 0; hang time was about 5.235 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The hang time of the ball is the value of x in h(x) such that h(x) = 0.

__

<h3>A.</h3>

Juan can show the hang time is 10 seconds by finding h(10) = 0. The value of h(10) is ...

h(10) = -16(10²) +83(10) +4 = -1600 +834 = -766 ≠ 0

Juan cannot prove the hang time was 10 seconds.

__

<h3>B.</h3>

The hang time is the solution to ...

h(x) = 0

-16x² +83x +4 = 0 . . . . . use the given expression for h(x)

x² -5.1875x = 0.25 . . . . divide by -16

x² -5.1875x +6.7275390625 = 6.9775390625 . . . . add (5.1875/2)²

(x -2.59375)² = 6.9775390625 . . . . . . . . . . rewrite as a square

x = 2.59375 ±√6.9775390625 ≈ {-0.048, 5.235} . . . . square root, find x

The hang time of the ball was about 5.235 seconds.

Please help me find the area of shaded region and step by step

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Part 1) $A=60\ ft^2$

Part 2) $A=80\ cm^2$

Part 3) $A=96\ m^2$

Part 4) $A=144\ cm^2$

Part 5) $A=9\ m^2$

Part 6) $A=(49\pi -33)\ in^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

The shaded region is equal to the area of the complete rectangle minus the area of the interior rectangle

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=bh$

where

b is the base of rectangle

h is the height of rectangle

so

$A=(12)(7)-(8)(3)$

$A=84-24$

$A=60\ ft^2$

Part 2) we know that

The shaded region is equal to the area of the complete rectangle minus the area of the interior square

The area of square is equal to

$A=b^2$

where

b is the length side of the square

so

$A=(12)(8)-(4^2)$

$A=96-16$

$A=80\ cm^2$

Part 3) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of four rectangles plus the area of one square

so

$A=4(4)(5)+(4^2)$

$A=80+16$

$A=96\ m^2$

Part 4) we know that

The shaded region is equal to the area of the complete square minus the area of the interior square

so

$A=(15^2)-(9^2)$

$A=225-81$

$A=144\ cm^2$

Part 5) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of triangle minus the area of rectangle

The area of triangle is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)$

where

b is the base of triangle

h is the height of triangle

so

$A=\frac{1}{2}(6)(7)-(6)(2)$

$A=21-12$

$A=9\ m^2$

Part 6) we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of the circle minus the area of rectangle

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

where

r is the radius of the circle

so

$A=\pi (7^2)-(3)(11)$

$A=(49\pi -33)\ in^2$

Express 2x^2+8x+3 in the form 2(x+p)^2+q

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

2(x + 2)² - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + 8x + 3

To obtain the required form use the method of completing the square.

The coefficient of the x² term must be 1, thus factor 2 out of 2x² + 8x

= 2(x² + 4x) + 3

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² + 4x

= 2(x² + 2(2)x + 4 - 4) + 3

= 2(x + 2)² - 8 + 3

= 2(x + 2)² - 5

with p = 2 and q = - 5
