1) WET SURPRISE A water balloon is launched off of a patio. The path of the water
balloon can be modeled by h(t) = -6t2 + 13t + 5, where h(t) is the balloon's height in feet and t is the time in seconds after the balloon is launched.
a. How long will it take for the balloon to splat on the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

The function of the water balloon is an illustration of a quadratic function.

The balloon will splat on the ground after 2.5 seconds

The function is given as:

[tex]h(t) = -6t^2 + 13t + 5[/tex]

When the balloon splats on the ground, the value of h(t) is 0.

So, we have:

[tex]-6t^2 + 13t + 5 = 0[/tex]

Expand the expression

[tex]-6t^2 + 15t- 2t + 5 = 0[/tex]

Factorize the above expression

[tex]-3t(2t - 5)- 1(2t - 5 )= 0[/tex]

Factor out 2t - 5 in the 2t - 5

[tex](-3t - 1)(2t - 5 )= 0[/tex]

Split the equation into 2

[tex]-3t - 1 = 0\ or\ 2t - 5= 0[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]-3t = 1\ or\ 2t = 5[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]t = -\frac 13\ or\ t = \frac 52[/tex]

The value of t cannot be less than 0 i.e. negative.

So, we have

[tex]t = \frac 52[/tex]

Divide 5 by 2

[tex]t = 2.5[/tex]

Hence, the balloon will splat on the ground after 2.5 seconds

What's the formula for the area of a triangle?

Answers

Answer:

A=hb/2

To calculate the area of a triangle, multiply the height by the width (this is also known as the 'base') then divide by 2. Find the area of a triangle where height = 5 cm and width = 8 cm. A triangle is always half the area of a rectangle with the same height and width.

Guy and Jim work at a furniture store. Guy is paid $185 per week plus 3% of his total sales in dollars, X, which can be represented by g(x) = 185 +0.03x. Jim is paid $275 per week plus 2.5% of his total sales in dollars, x, which can be represented by f(x) = 275 +0.025%. Determine the value of x, in dollars, that will make their weekly pay the same.​

Answers

Answer:

$18,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

When their weekly pay is the same:

185 + 0.03x =  275 + 0.025x

0.03x - 0.025x =  275 - 185

0.005x = 90

Answers

The reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units

Find the diagram of the question attached. The given triangle ABC and BDE are similar triangles.

Using the similarity theorem of a triangle, this is expressed as:

AC = DE

Using the pythagoras theorem to get the length of AC:

AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2

5^2 + AC^2 + 4^2

AC^2 = 25 - 16

AC^2 = 9

AC= 3

Since AC = DE, hence the reasonable estimate for the length of side DE is 3 units

Brainliest is much appreciated!

Answer:

984/616 is equal to 123/77 because it is simplified, also meaning reduced by finding the GCF (greatest common factor), which in this case is 8. So therefore, when you divide the numerator of 984 by 8, you get 123, and when you divide the denominator of 616 by 8 as well, you will get 77.
