A golfer is hitting a ball up a hill. The height of the hill is represented by the function
y = 0.125x. The height of the ball is measured by the equation
y = –16x^2+56x. How much higher will the ball be when it lands than when it was initially hit?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3.49 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 0.125x

y = –16x^2 + 56x

Set the equations equal since the height of the hill

and the height of the ball must be the same

–16x^2 + 56x = 0.125x

Subtract 0.125x from both sides

–16x^2 + 55.875x = 0

Factor out x

x(–16x + 55.875) = 0

From the zero product rule

x = 0

and

–16x + 55.875 = 0

–16x = –55.875

Divide both sides by –16

x = 3.4921875

Diiference in height

3.4921875 - 0 = 3.4921875

3.49 ft

The quadratic function f(x)=ax^2+4x+c has a maximum at the point (1, 9) . What are the values of a and c?

Answers

Answer: a = -2  and  c = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(this answer uses some basic calculus)

We know that [tex]f'(x) = 2ax + 4[/tex], and since [tex](1,9)[/tex] is a maximum of [tex]f[/tex], then [tex]f'(1) = 0[/tex]. That means [tex]2a + 4 = 0[/tex], so [tex]\boxed{a = -2}[/tex]. Then since [tex]f(1) = 9[/tex], we have [tex]-2(1)^2 + 4(1) + c = 9[/tex], so [tex]\boxed{c = 7}[/tex].

Answer:

a = -2

c = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function, f(x) = ax² + 4x + c, for which its vertex is the maximum point occurring at (1, 9), and b = 4.

Solve for the value of a:

Since the x-coordinate of the vertex, x = 1, can be calculated using the formula, [tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]:

We can substitute the value of the x-coordinate and b = 4 into the formula, and solve for the value of a:

[tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]1 = \frac{-4}{2a}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2a:

(2a) 1 =  [tex]\frac{-4}{2a} (2a)[/tex]

2a = -4

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for a:

[tex]\frac{2a}{2} = \frac{-4}{2}[/tex]

a = -2

Therefore, the value of a = -2.

Solve for the value of c:

Next, to solve for c, substitute the coordinate values of the vertex, (1, 9) into the given quadratic function:

f(x) = ax² + 4x + c

9 = -2(1)² + 4(1) + c

9 = -2 + 4 + c

9 = 2 + c

Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate c:

9 - 2 = 2 - 2  + c

7 = c

Double-check:

In order to double-check the validity of our values for a and c, substitute a = -2, and c = 7 into the function, along with the coordinates of the vertex, (1, 9):

f(x) = -2x² + 4x + 7

9 = -2(1)² + 4(1) + 7

9 = -2 + 4 + 7

9 = 9 (True statement).

Therefore, the correct answers are: a = -2, and c = 7.

Starting at sea level, a submarine descended at a constant rate to a depth of −3/4 mile relative to sea level in 5/8 minutes.

The submarine continues to descend at the same rate. What is the submarine's depth relative to sea level after the first minute?

Answers

66 because of the equation and it does 50 ‘of 90

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r be the rate of descent in miles per minute

-3/4 miles / 5/8 minutes

-3/4 • 8/5 = -24 / 20 = -1.2 mi/min

so in one minute

-1.2 mi/min (1 min) = -1.2 miles

Answers

Using the law of sines, it is found that the angle that the golfer has between the spectator and the hole is of 25.6º.

What is the law of sines?

Suppose we have a triangle in which:

The length of the side opposite to angle A is a.The length of the side opposite to angle B is b.The length of the side opposite to angle C is c.

The lenghts and the sine of the angles are related as follows:

[tex]\frac{\sin{A}}{a} = \frac{\sin{B}}{b} = \frac{\sin{C}}{c}[/tex]

Hence, in this problem, we have that:

[tex]\frac{\sin{115^\circ}}{200} = \frac{sin{x}}{140}[/tex]

[tex]sin{x} = \frac{140\sin{115^\circ}}{200}[/tex]

[tex]x = \arcsin{0.6344}[/tex]

x = 39.4º.

Considering that the sum of the internal angles of the triangle is of 180º, the angle that the golfer has between the spectator and the hole is given by:

A = 180 - (115 + 39.4) = 25.6º.

A pollutant breaks down at a rate of 2% a year. What fraction of the current amount will be present in 20 years? Let X(0) = 1.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X = 1(1 - 0.02)ⁿ

X = 1(0.98)²⁰

X = 0.6676

67%

Using an exponential equation, it is found that 66.76% of the current amount will be present in 20 years.

A decaying exponential function has the following format:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(t) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, breaks down at a rate of 2% a year, hence [tex]r = 0.02[/tex], and:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - 0.02)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.98)^t[/tex]

The fraction after 20 years is A(20), hence:

[tex]A(20) = A(0)(0.98)^{20}[/tex]

[tex]A(20) = 0.6676[/tex]

66.76% of the current amount will be present in 20 years.
