A bullet is fired straight up from a gun with initial velocity 1120 feet per second at an initial height of 8 feet. Use the formula h = − 16 t 2 + v 0 t + 8 to determine how many seconds it will take for the bullet to hit the ground. (That is, when will h = 0 ?) Round your answer to 2 decimal places

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

70 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

The initial velocity [tex]v_o[/tex] of the bullet fired = 1120 ft/s

Initial height h = 8 feet

The expression to determine how many seconds it takes the bullet to hit the ground is:

[tex]h = -16t^2 +v_ot + 8[/tex]

Thus;

Replacing the value of [tex]v_o[/tex] =  1120 and h = 0 (i.e. when h =0) in the above expression; we have:

[tex]0= -16t^2 +(1120)t + 8[/tex]

[tex]= -16t^2 +(1120)t + (8-0)[/tex]

= -16t² + 1120t + 8

mulitiply through by (-)

= 16t² -1120t - 8

Divide through by 8

= 2t² -  140t - 1

The above expression forms a quadratic equation.

where;

a = 2

b = -140

c = - 1

So, by using the quadratic formula [tex]\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex], we have:

[tex]= \dfrac{-(-140) \pm \sqrt{(-140)^2-4(2)(-1)}}{2(2)}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{140 \pm \sqrt{19600-(-8)}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{140 \pm \sqrt{19608}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]= \dfrac{140 \pm 140}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{140+ 140}{4} \ \ \ OR \ \ \ \dfrac{140-140}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{280}{4} \ \ \ OR \ \ \ 0[/tex]

= 70

Thus, the time (in seconds) it took the bullet to it the ground = 70 seconds

Craig just purchased a new car. He financed $45000 and must pay it back over 5 years with 11% interest. a) How much will craig have paid in interest by the time his car is paid off? b) How much will he have paid for his car, including interest, after 5 years?

Answers

Answer:

49950

Step-by-step explanation:

111% of 45000 is 49950

Answer:

The amount Craig financed at the beginning(P) = 45000

Number of years he took to repay(T) = 5

Rate of interest(R) = 11%

Total interest he paid = PTR/100

= 45000(5) (11) / 100

= 450 × 55 = 24,750

Therefore Craig will have paid $24,750

Answers

Answer:

$6750 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

A kid traveled a distance of 9 km by bike, and then walked a distance of km.
a.Find the total distance traveled in terms of
b. If the total distance was less than 30 km, form an inequality in , and
then solve it!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question;

A kid traveled a distance of 9 km by bike, and then walked a distance of x km.

a.Find the total distance traveled in terms of  x

b. If the total distance was less than 30 km, form an inequality in x, and

then solve it!

a) Total distance = distance travelled by bike + distance walked

Total distance = 9km + xkm

Total distance = (9+x)km

b)  If the total distance was less than 30 km, the inequality representing this is;

9+x < 30

Subtract 9 from both sides;

9+x-9 < 30-9

x < 21

hence the solution to the inequality is x< 21

Answers

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Amount earned by Jessica per month = 800

Total savings target per year  = 2400

Unknown:

Percentage of savings = ?

Solution:

The total earning per year will be the amount earned per month multiplied by the total number months;

 Amount earned in a year = 12 x 800  = 9600

Let the percentage of savings per year  = y%

  Now;

              2400 = [tex]\frac{y}{100}[/tex] x 9600

                  y = 25%

So this question is actually very simple.The concept of  this equation is that the question is asking how the angles will prove parrel for both lines.So we can do a alegbric equation like this:

(5b + 16) + ( b +32 ) =180 degrees

We do a 180 degrees because each angle is beside each other.Now we like this:

6b +48 =180

Then move all the nums to one side and all the variables to the other.Like this:

6b = 180 - 48

6b = 132

b = 132/6

b = 22

Name the triangle with the following characteristics. Sides: 5 cm, 5 cm, 7 cm.

a. equilateral triangle
b. right triangle
c. isosceles triangle
d. scalene triangle

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf Isosceles \ triangle}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides and angles.

A right triangle contains one right or 90 degree angle.

An isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides and base angles.

A scalene triangle has no equal sides or angles.

The triangle given has the sides of 5 cm, 5 cm, and 7 cm.

Therefore, 2 of the sides are equal and this must be an isosceles triangle.

The price per ticket

Step-by-step explanation:

It can't be the cost of the concession stand because it would've been negative since it's costing them to get the stand.

Can't be the profit made because its the y.

Can't be the number to tickets sold since that's the 3x.

Answer:

[tex]34 + 51 = 85[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]34 + 51[/tex]

Required

        5x⁴ - 7(-x )

To simplify this expression, we have to follow the order of operation PEMDAS;

Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction

  5x⁴ - 7(-x ) = 5x⁴ + 7x

Answer:

x = 4.5 m ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of similar triangles are proportion, that means the ratio between the corresponding sides are equal

In the given figure

∵ The two triangles are similar

2 m and x are corresponding sides

4 m and 9 m are corresponding sides

∴ [tex]\frac{2}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

→ By using cross multiplication

x × 4 = 2 × 9

∴ 4x = 18

→ Divide both sides by 4 to find x
