a package is accidentally dropped from a helicopter from a height of 3,136ft. if the equation for height as a function of time is h(t) = -16t^2 + initial height where t is time in seconds and h(t) is height in feet, how many seconds will it take for the package to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 14 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A package is accidentally dropped from a helicopter from a height of 3,136ft.

The equation for height as a function of time is :

[tex]h(t) = -16t^2 + \text{initial height}[/tex]

So,

[tex]h(t) = -16t^2 +3,136[/tex]

When it hits the ground, h(t) = 0

So,

[tex]-16t^2 +3,136=0\\\\-16t^2=-3136\\\\t^2=\dfrac{3136}{16}\\\\t^2=196\\\\t=14\ s[/tex]

So, it will take 14 seconds for the package to hit the ground.

3. If triangle ABC has the following measurements, find the measure of angle A.
a = 17
b = 21
C = 25

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a)  42.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

Side 'a' is the shortest of three unequal sides, so angle A will be the smallest angle in the triangle. Its measure can be found from the Law of Cosines.

  a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)

  cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (21² +25² -17²)/(2·21·25) = 777/1050

  A = arccos(777/1050) ≈ 42.3°

The measure of angle A is about 42.3°.

A staircase is being constructed in a new house as displayed on the right. Each tread is 18 cm and each riser is 10cm. Determine the angle of inclination of the stairs.

Answers

Answer:

29.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Riser, AB, Opposite = 10 cm

Thread, = AC, Adjacent = 18 cm

Angle of inclination, θ

Using trigonometry :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent = AB / AC

Tan θ = 10 / 18

θ = tan^-1(10/18)

θ = 29.055

Hence, angle of inclination is 29.1° (1 decimal place)

What are the roots of this equation x^2-4x+9=0?

Answers

Roots is a fancy word for zero, which is also another fancy word for the x intercept.

You can factor a quad or use the quadratic equation to get zeros.

In this case, its non-factorable. So you gotta use the quadratic.

Using the quadratic equation you get : x = -2 ± √-1 (√5),

which can be rewritten as x = -2 ± i(√5)

Function was : x^2 + 4x + 9

For quad, I identified the following:

A father is 51 years old and his son is 19. How many years ago was the father 5 times his son's age? ​

Answers

Answer:

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

51-x-5*19= -5x

51-5*19= -4x

4x=5*19-51

4x=95-51

4x=44

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

let x year ago son age was 5 time his father age.

age of son before x year = 19-x

age of father before x year = 51-x

NOW

according to the question

5(19-x) =51-x

95-5x =51-x

95-51 = -X-5x

44 = 4x

x=11

so your ans is 11years ago

Add 3/8 to both sides:

Rewrite 13/2 to have 8 as the denominator:

13/2 x 4 = 52/8

X = 52/8 + 3/8

X = 55/8

Answer:

55/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 3/8 to both sides

X - 3/8 = 13/2

X = 13/2 + 3/8

make sure the denominators are equal so we can add. so multiply 4/4 by 13/2 and that equals 52/8

X = 52/8+3/8

X= 55/8

Please answer it will mean a lot thanks

Answers

Answer: Circumference of circle = 27.004 inches

              Area of circle = 58.0586 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of circle = 8.6 inches

Pi ([tex]\pi[/tex]) = 3.14

Circumference of circle (With diameter) = [tex]\pi \\[/tex]d ([tex]\pi[/tex]×diameter)

                                                                = 3.14 × 8.6

                                                                = 27.004 inches

Area of circle (With diameter) = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]d^{2}[/tex]/4

                                                 = 3.14 × 8.6 × 8.6 / 4

                                                 = 3.14 × 73.96 / 4

joe measures the side of a square correct to 1 decimal place. he calculates the upper bound for the area of the square as 37.8225cm².

work out joe's measurement for the side of the square

Answers

The side of the square is 6.2 cm

A square is a quadrilateral with four equal sides.

Characteristics of a square includes:

• The diagonals bisect each other at 90°.

• Opposite sides parallel and of equal length

• The four angles of a square are equal.

Area of a square = length of a side²

37.8225cm² = length of a side²

To determine the length of a side, find the square root of 37.8225cm²

37.8225cm² = 6.15cm

To round off to one decimal place, look at the second number after the decimal (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

The hundredth number is 5, so one would be added to one. the number then becomes 6.2cm
