3) A rock is thrown from the top of a tall building. The distance, in feet, between the rock and the
ground x seconds after it is thrown is given by f(x)=-16x2 - 4x + 382 How long after the rock is
thrown is it 340 feet from the ground?

Answers

Answer:

1.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f(x) represents the distance from the ground to the rock (in feet), we just need to find the values of x for which f(x) = 340. Substituting f(x) = 340 into f(x) = -16x² - 4x + 382 gives us:

340 = -16x² - 4x + 382

0 = -16x² - 4x + 42 (Subtract 340 from both sides)

16x² + 4x - 42 = 0  (Multiply entire equation by -1, "flip" equation)

8x² + 2x - 21 = 0    (Divide entire equation by 2)

(4x + 7)(2x - 3) = 0  (Factor LHS)

4x + 7 = 0 or 2x - 3 = 0 (Zero Product Property)

4x = -7 or 2x = 3 (Subtract -7 and add 3 from/to both sides, respectively)

[tex]x = -\frac{7}{4} =-1.75 . or .x= \frac{3}{2} = 1.5[/tex]

x = -1.75 is an extraneous solution because in the context of the question, you can't have negative seconds so therefore, the final answer is 1.5 seconds.

There are two trips, but the distances are the same.

Trip #1: uphill, at 9 mph

Trip #2: downhill at 18 mph

Total round trip is 30 minutes.

Since he's going half the speed uphill, Trip #1 takes twice as long as Trip #2.

So if the time for Trip #2 is x, then the time for Trip #1 is 2x.

     x + 2x = 30, so x=10

Trip #2 takes 10 minutes.

Trip #1 takes 20 minutes.

Trip #1: 20 minutes at 9 mph = 3 miles

Trip #2: 10 minutes at 18 mph = 3 miles

This means his school is 3 miles away.

If you want an equation to solve,

Let d = distance to school.  We use d = r·t formula to set up that t = d/r

let t1 = time going to school and t2 = times going home

t1 + t2 = 30 and t1 = d/9 and t2 = d/18.

    d/9 + d/18 = 0.5    (it's 0.5, because we need the time in hours)

      mutiply both sides b 18

    2d + d = 9

     3d = 9

       d = 3

approxomate negative square root of 23 to the nearest tenth. draw the point on the number line

Answers

Answer:

Step 1: Calculate

We calculate the square root of 23 to be:

√23 = 4.79583152331272

Step 2: Reduce

Reduce the tail of the answer above to two numbers after the decimal point:

4.79

Step 3: Round

Round 4.79 so you only have one digit after the decimal point to get the answer:

4.8

To check that the answer is correct, use your calculator to confirm that 4.82 is about 23.

The negative square root of 23 to the nearest tenth will lie between 4 and 5 on the number line and more closer to 5.

What is a perfect square number ?

Number which are formed by multiplying a number with itself once are called perfect square numbers.

Now the given number is,

negative square root of 23

Thus we have, [tex]-\sqrt{23}[/tex]

So the value of [tex]-\sqrt{23}[/tex]  is -4.79

To round to the nearest tenth, so the digit at the tenth place is 7 and digit at right of 7 is 9 which is greater than 5 so roundup the digit.

Thus we get,
[tex]-\sqrt{23}[/tex] = 4.8

Thus, this point will lie between 4 and 5 and more closer to 5.

Thus, the negative square root of 23 to the nearest tenth will lie between 4 and 5 on the number line and more closer to 5.

Find the surface area of the square pyramid. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
A. 175.42
B. 176.42
C. 185.42
D. 192.42

Answers

Answer:

175.42

Step-by-step explanation:

 

surface area of square pyramid is given by:

Area= s^2 + 2(s)(l)

where s is the base and l is the slant height

in given problem, slant height l is not given, so by using Pythagoras theorem finding l:

c^2= a^2 + b^2

    =  8^2 + 4^2

    = 48.49

c     = 6.96348

Now putting values of s=8 and l= 6.96 in first formula

Area= 8^2 + 2(8)(6.96)

     =  64 + 111.41

     = 175.42

The volume of the above cylinder is 21m find the radius of the circular end

Answers

Answer:

0.75m

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a prism is:

the area of the cross section × length

In this case the cross section is the circle so the formula is

v = πr²h

volume = 21m³

height or length = 12m

Sub in the values:

21 = πr² × 12

1.75 = πr² (I divided both sides by 12)

0.5570423008 = r² (I divided both sides by π)

r = 0.74635... (I square rooted both sides)

r ≈ 0.75m (to 2 d.p)

The component form of a vector indicates the changes in x and y from the
starting point to the endpoint. What is the component form of this vector?

Answers

The vector’s component form is (-8, 2)

It moves negative 8 units towards the left. 4 - 8 = -4. And it moves positive 2 units upwards -1 + 2 = 1.

We will see that the component form of the given vector is <-8, 2>, so the correct option is D.

How to get the component form of the vector?

For a vector with starting point (a, b) and endpoint (c, d), the component form is:

<c -a, d -b>

In this case, we can see that the starting point is (4, -1), and the endpoint is (-4, 1)

Then the component form of the vector is:

<-4 - 4, 1 - (-1) > = <-8, 2>

So the correct option is D.
