A baseball is thrown into the air from the top of a 224-foot tall building. The baseball's approximate height over time can be represented by the quadratic equation h(t) = -16t2 + 80t + 224, where t represents the time in seconds that the baseball has been in the air and h(t) represents the baseball's height in feet. When factored, this equation is h(t) = -16(t - 7)(t + 2). What is a reasonable time for it to take the baseball to land on the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume h(t) represents the height above ground, so that h(t) = 0 will be the point where the ball hits the ground.

The factored form of the equation tells us ...

  h(7) = -16(7 -7)(7 +2) = 0

So, the baseball will land on the ground when t=7, seven seconds after first being thrown into the air.

_____

The other value of t that makes h(t) = 0 is -2. Since we only count time after the ball is thrown, t=-2 is an extraneous solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

In both questions the denominator of the rational functions cannot be zero as this would make them undefined. Equating the denominators to zero and solving gives the values that x cannot be.

Given

[tex]\frac{x-3}{(3-x)(2+x)}[/tex]

solve (3 - x)(2 + x) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

3 - x = 0 ⇒ x = 3

2 + x = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x = 3 and x = - 2 are excluded values → (a)

Find the value of x to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

x =20.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the value of 1/2 of x using the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 6^2 = 12^2

a^2 = 36+144

a^2 = 108

Take the square root

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt( 108)

a =sqrt(36*3)

a = sqrt(36) sqrt(3)

a = 6sqrt(3)

Now x = 2 times the length of a

x = 2 * 6 sqrt(3)

x = 12 sqrt(3)

x =20.78460969

x =20.8

Answers

Answer:

1) Please find attached the box and whiskers chart created with Excel

2) The conclusions are;

a) The measure of central tendency (the mean and the median) are approximately equal,

b) The standard deviation for the first five data points is 14.17 while the standard deviation for the whole ten data points is 23.99 as such the data values appeared more clustered at the center and show wider spread towards right ends of the chart

Due to the lack of correlation between the standard deviation and the five data values, the data is not uniformly distributed

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is as follows;

1,    2,    3,    4,   5,    6,    7,    8,    9,    10

15, 18,   22,  32, 50, 50,  55, 56,  81,    81

The first quartile Q₁ = 22

The second quartile, Q₂ (Median) = 50

The third quartile, Q₃ = 56

The interquartile range IQR = 56 - 22 = 34

The minimum value = 15

The maximum value = 81

The mean = 46

The standard deviation = 23.99

Therefore, the measure of central tendency (the mean and the median) are approximately equal,

The data values appeared more clustered at the center and show wider spread towards the left and right ends of the chart

The standard deviation for the first five data points is 14.17 while the standard deviation for the last five data points is

Due to the lack of correlation between the standard deviation and the five data values, the data is not uniformly distributed.

A bookstore decides to divide its space into three sections: nonfiction books, novels, and stationery. The bookstore wants to devote 1/6 of its space to stationery. If the total area of the bookstore is 288 square feet, and the stationery section will be 12 feet long, how wide will the stationery section be?

Answers

Answer:

Stationery section will be 4 feet wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total area of bookstore = 288 sq ft

Area to be devoted to stationery = [tex]\frac{1}6[/tex] of total area = [tex]\frac{1}{6} \times 288 = 48\ sq\ ft[/tex]

Length of stationery section = 12 ft

To find:

Width of stationery section = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the area of rectangle:

[tex]A = Length \times Width[/tex]

Here, we are given the length for stationery section and area of stationery section has been calculated above.

And we have to find the Width of stationery section.

So, let us put the two values to find the third value.

[tex]\Rightarrow 48 = 12 \times Width\\\Rightarrow Width = \dfrac{48}{12}\\\Rightarrow \bold{Width = 4\ ft}[/tex]

So, the answer is:

Answers

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

profit=sp -cp

cp=sp-profit

=17250-2250

=15000

profit%= profit amount/cp *100%

=2250/15000×100

= 15

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \purple{15\%}}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

SP ( Selling price ) = Rs 17250

Profit ( P ) = Rs 2250

CP ( Cost price ) = Rs 17250 - Rs 2250 = Rs 15000

Now, let's find the profit / gain percentage :

Profit % = [tex] \sf{ \frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100\%}[/tex]

Answer: From the graph, the line segment with negative slope (that is decreasing value) shows that the phone is not plugged but being used while the line segment with positive slope (increasing value) or stays at 100% shows that the phone is plugged to the charger.

As shown, from 0 to 8 hours their is a decreasing value, the phone is not plugged. From 8 to 10 hours their is an increasing value therefore the phone is plugged also from 10 to 12 hours the phone is plugged since it is constant. From 12 to 16 hours it is not plugged.
