After the semester is over, you discover that the math department has changed textbooks (again) so the bookstore won't buy back your nearly-new book. You and your friend Anna decide to get creative. You go to the rook of a five-story building and look over the edge to the reflecting pool 60 feet below. You drop your book over the edge at the same instant that Anna chucks her book straight down at 30 feet per second. By about how many seconds does her book beat yours into the water (approximately)? Your function is s(t)=−16t2+60 Anna's function is s(t)=−16t2−30t+60

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.78 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the position of the pool is at 60 feet below, s(t) = -60 for both me and Anna. So, both expressions for the motion of the book are equated to -60 and then solved to find the time they reach the water.

So, For me s(t)= −16t² + 60

-60 = −16t² + 60

collecting like terms, we have

-60 - 60 = −16t²

- 120 = −16t²

dividing both sides by - 16, we have

t² = -120/-16

t² = 7.5

t = √7.5

t = 2.74 s

For Anna, s(t)= −16t² - 30t + 60

-60 = −16t² - 30t + 60

adding 60 to both sides, we have

-60 + 60 = −16t² - 30t + 60 + 60

−16t² - 30t + 120 = 0

dividing through by -2, we have

8t² + 15t - 60 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to find t

[tex]t = \frac{-15 +/- \sqrt{15^{2} - 4 X 8 X -60} }{2 X 8} \\t = \frac{-15 +/- \sqrt{225 + 1920} }{16} \\t = \frac{-15 +/- \sqrt{2145} }{16} \\t = \frac{-15 +/- 46.31}{16} \\t = \frac{-15 - 46.31}{16} or t = \frac{-15 + 46.31}{16} \\t = \frac{-61.31}{16} or t = \frac{31.31}{16} \\t = -3.83 s or 1.96 s[/tex]

Since t' cannot be negative, t' = 1.96 s.

It takes Anna's book 1.96 s to reach the water, while it takes 2.74 s for my book to reach the water.

So, the time it takes Anna's book to beat mine is the difference between the time of reaching the water of each book. So Δt = t - t' = 2.74 s - 1.96 s = 0.78 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the expansion of (x - 5y)² is

(x - 5y)² = x² - 10xy + 25y² , that is

(x - 5y)² = x² + 25y² - 10xy ← substitute given values

(- 16)² = 416 - 10xy

256 = 416 - 10xy ( subtract 416 from both sides )

- 160 = - 10xy ( divide both sides by - 10 )

xy = 16 → (a)

The total change in yards for the two plays 21 yards lost

what are integers?

Integers include all whole numbers and negative numbers. This means if we include negative numbers along with whole numbers, we form a set of integers.

Definition of Integers

An integer is a number with no decimal or fractional part and it includes negative and positive numbers, including zero. A few examples of integers are: -5, 0, 1, 5, 8, 97, and 3,043. A set of integers, which is represented as Z, includes:

Positive Numbers: A number is positive if it is greater than zero. Example: 1, 2, 3 . . .

Negative Numbers: A number is negative if it is less than zero. Example: -1, -2, -3 . . .

Zero is defined as neither a negative number nor a positive number. It is a whole number.

In first play= 14 yards lost= -14

In next play = 7 yards lost = -7

So,

the total change in yards is = -14 + (-7)

                                              =-14-7

                                              = -21 yards

The vertices of a triangle are A (-2, 2), B (4,10), and C (0, -2). Find the equation of the line that contains
the median through point


The equation of the line is y =________

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2 x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

mid point of line BC = (2, 4)

slope of the line containing median (m) = 1/2

y intercept (b)= 3

since y = mx + b

y = 1/2x + 3

The median of a triangle is the line segment joining the any of the vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side of that vertex. The equation of the median through point A is given by y = 1/2x + 3.

What is a Median ?

A median of a triangle is a line segment joining one of the vertex of the triangle to the mid-point of the opposite side.

The median of an equilateral triangle also an angular bisector.

Given that,

The coordinates of A = (-2, 2)

The coordinates of B = (4, 10)

The coordinates of C = (0,-2)

Thus the coordinate mid-point of BC is given by (4+0)/2,(10-2)/2 = (2,4).

Now, to find the equation of median through A there are two points (-2,2) and (2,4).

Thus the equation of median an be written as,

(y-2)/(x+2) = (4-2)/(2-(-2))

=> y - 2 = 1/2(x+2)

=> y = 1/2(x+2) + 2

=> y = 1/2 x + 3

Hence, the equation of the line is y = 1/2 x + 3.
