A projectile is fired vertically upward, and its height s(t) in feet after t seconds is given by the function s(t)=-16t^2+600t+800. After how many seconds, to the nearest tenth, will the projectile hit the ground?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The projectile will hit the ground after 38.8 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the height s (t) in feet of the projectile after t seconds is given by the function

s(t) = - 16t² + 600t + 800.

To know the time at which the projectile will hit the ground, you must replace s(t) by height 0:

0=- 16t² + 600t + 800

This is a quadratic function of the form ax2 + bx + c, where a= -16, b=600 and c=800.

To solve a quadratic function, you must apply the expression:

[tex]x1,x2=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c } }{2*a}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]x1,x2=\frac{-600+-\sqrt{600^{2}-4*(-16)*800 } }{2*(-16)}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]x1,x2=\frac{-600+-\sqrt{360000+51200 } }{-32}[/tex]

[tex]x1,x2=\frac{-600+-\sqrt{411200 } }{-32}[/tex]

[tex]x1,x2=\frac{-600+-641.25 }{-32}[/tex]

So:

[tex]x1=\frac{-600+641.25 }{-32}[/tex]

[tex]x1=\frac{41.25 }{-32}[/tex]

x1= -1.289 seconds

and

[tex]x2=\frac{-600-641.25 }{-32}[/tex]

[tex]x2=\frac{-1241.25 }{-32}[/tex]

x2= 38.789 ≅ 38.8 seconds

Time cannot be negative. So, the projectile will hit the ground after 38.8 seconds.

Cyber Monday Shopping A survey of 1000 U.S. adults found that 33% of people said that they would get no work done on Cyber Monday since they would spend all day shopping online. Find the 95% confidence interval of the true proportion.

Answer:

(0.301 ; 0.359)

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size, n = 1000

Phat = 0.33

(1 - phat) = 1 - 0.33 = 0.67

Zcritical at 95% = 1.96

Confidence interval :

Phat ± margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * sqrt[(phat(1 - phat)) /n]

Margin of Error = 1.96 * sqrt[(0.33 * 0.67) / 1000]

Margin of Error = 1.96 * 0.0148694

Margin of Error = 0.0291440

Lower boundary = (0.33 - 0.0291440) = 0.300856

Upper boundary = (0.33 + 0.0291440) = 0.359144

O

D. The value of n can be any prime integer resulting in the distinct factors

(Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)

O E. The expression cannot be factored for the given values of n.

Answers

Answer:

A. The value of n can be any positive integer resulting in the same factor

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x^2 + 2xn + n^2[/tex] --- the right expression

[tex]n > 0[/tex]

Required

Possible values of n

[tex]x^2 + 2xn + n^2[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x^2 + 2xn + n^2 = x^2 + xn+xn + n^2[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]x^2 + 2xn + n^2 = x(x + n)+n(x + n)[/tex]

Factor out [tex]x + n[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + 2xn + n^2 = (x + n)(x + n)[/tex]

From the expression above, we can see that the result has the same factor. This means that options (b), (d) and (e) are not possible

[tex]x^2 + 2xn + n^2 = (x + n)^2[/tex]

The above also shows that n can take any positive value.

Hence: (a) is correct

In the third quarter of 2001, the median sale price for a single-family
home in Putnam County, New York, was $259,970. A year earlier, the
price was $242,555. What was the percent increase?

Answers

Answer:

The % increase is 7.179 but see the remark I made below. What I have given and what it could be is a rounding error. Less than 2 dollars error is not much when you are calculating something for someone just to show them how to do it.

Step-by-step explanation:

242,555 * x/100 = 259,970           Multiply by 100

242,555 * x = 259970 * 100

242,555 * x = 25997000            Divide by 242555

x = 24997000/242444

x = 107.179

That's the total increase.

What you want is 7.179%

If you take 7.179% of 242,555 and add it onto 242555 you should get 259,970

7.1797/100 * 242555 = 17413.02

17413.02 + 242555 = 259968.02

Why isn't it exact. I'm out just about 2 whole dollars. The reason is that the % isn't exact. It's only out to 3 decimal places which apparently is not enough. You can go over my numbers if you want more exactness us use something that is rounded to 7.180 if you like.

Base your answer on Betty is thinking of two consecutive integers whose sum is 41.

What is the value of the larger integer?

Answers

Answer:

let the numbers be, x and x+1 ( as it is consecutive number the next number will have 1 more than the number )

sum = 41

so, x + ( x + 1 ) = 41

      x + x + 1 = 41

        2x + 1 = 41

             2x = 41 -1 = 40

              2x = 40

                x = 40/2 = 20

x = 20

x + 1 = 20 + 1 = 21

so the consecutive numbers whose sum is 40 are, 20 and 21  

hope this answer helps you.....

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

When we take a look at the graph, we can see that at around 1 gallon, which would be halfway between 0 and 2, the line is underneath $5.

That means we can eliminate any number that is or above $5.

That leaves us with answer choices A and C.

Let's go to a point that is easily readable. Point (4, 15) is readable, and we can use this to find the price per gallon.

Divide 15 by 4. We get 3.75 as the result.

This means that the answer choice is:

C. The cost of gas is $3.75 per gallon.

David has a monthly after-tax income of $ 1430.15 1430.15 . He will be using the companies health insurance plan which costs $ 63 63 a monthand the retirement option which takes 7 7 % of his after tax income. Calculate David's Monthly Take-Home pay.

Answers

Answer:

$ 1267.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

David's monthly income after tax = $ 1430.15

His health insurance cost him in a month = $ 63

Percent deducted from his income after tax for his retirement option is = 7%

Therefore money left after retirement option deduction is :

$ 1430.15 - 7% of $ 1430.15

= 1430.15 - 100.11

= $ 1330.04

= $ 1330 (aprrox)

Money deducted from this amount for his health insurance plan

= $ 1330 - $ 63

= $ 1267

Therefore, David's monthly take home pay is $ 1267.

Answer:

1. The volume of the cylinder is 263 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex].

2. The volume of the cylinder is 12 [tex]m^{3}[/tex].

3. The volume of the cylinder is 3165.1 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex].

4. The radius of the cylinder is 3.6 cm.

5a. Area of the base is 50.2 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].

5b. The curved surface area of the pencil holder is 351.7 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].

5c. The surface are of the pencil holder is 452.2 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The given shape is a cylinder, so that;

volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]h

                                  = 3.14 x [tex](3.8)^{2}[/tex] x 5.8

                                  = 262.98128

The volume of the cylinder is 263 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex].

2. This is also a cylinder, but with a given diameter.

radius = [tex]\frac{diameter}{2}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{1.2}{2}[/tex] = 0.6 m

volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]h

                                  = 3.14 x [tex](0.6)^{2}[/tex] x 10.6

                                  = 11.98224

The volume of the cylinder is 12 [tex]m^{3}[/tex].

3. volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]h

                                      = 3.14 x [tex]6^{2}[/tex] x 28

                                      = 3165.12

The volume of the cylinder is 3165.1 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex].

4. volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]h

239 = 3.14 x [tex]r^{2}[/tex] x 6

239 = 18.84 [tex]r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]r^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{239}{18.84}[/tex]

   = 12.6858

r = [tex]\sqrt{12.6858}[/tex]

 = 3.5617

The radius of the cylinder is 3.6 cm.

5. Area of the base = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]

radius = [tex]\frac{diameter}{2}[/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex] = 4 cm

Area of the base = 3.14 x [tex]4^{2}[/tex]

                            = 50.24

Area of the base is 50.2 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].

5b. Area of the curved surface of the pencil holder = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]rh

                                                                    = 2 x 3.14 x 4 x 14

                                                                     = 351.68

The curved surface area of the pencil holder is 351.7 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].

5c. Surface area of the pencil holder = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]rh + 2[tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]

                               = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r(h + r)

                                = 2 x 3.14 x 4 (14 + 4)

                                = 452.16

The surface are of the pencil holder is 452.2 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].
