To estimate the height of a building, a stone is dropped from the top of the building into a pool of water at ground level. The

splash is seen 5.6 seconds after the stone is dropped. What is the height of the building? Use the position function s(t) = 4.9t² + v_0 t + s_0 for free falling objects.

Answer:

The height of the building is 153.664 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

s(t) = 4.9t^2 + v_0 t + s_0

Here t represents the time v₀ represents the initial velocity, s₀ represents the initial height and s(t) represents the height after t seconds.

It is given that the splash is seen 5.6 seconds after the stone is dropped.

That means after 5.6 seconds height s(t) = 0, Also the initial velocity of the stone is 0.

Substitute respective values in the above function.

0 = 4.9(5.6)^2 +5.6(0)+ s_0

0 = 4.9(31.36)+ s_0

s_0=-153.664

As height can't be a negative number so the value of s₀ is 153.664.

Hence, the height of the building is 153.664 meter.

Solve the inequality. c – 5 ≤ 6
Vilka [71]
Hello There!

Follow through:
c - 5\leq 6
Add 5 to both sides:
c - 5 + 5 ≤ 6 + 5
Simplify:
c ≤ 11

C is smaller than or equal to 11.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

There are 360 people in my school. 15 take calculus, physics, and chemistry, and 15 don't take any of them. 180 take calculus. T
lesantik [10]

Answer:

150 students take physics.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must build the Venn's Diagram of this set.

I am going to say that:

-The set A represents the students that take calculus.

-The set B represents the students that take physics

-The set C represents the students that take chemistry.

-The set D represents the students that do not take any of them.

We have that:

A = a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)

In which a is the number of students that take only calculus, A \cap B is the number of students that take both calculus and physics, A \cap C is the number of students that take both calculus and chemistry and A \cap B \cap C is the number of students that take calculus, physics and chemistry.

By the same logic, we have:

B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)

C = c + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)

This diagram has the following subsets:

a,b,c,(A \cap B), (A \cap C), (B \cap C), (A \cap B \cap C), D

There are 360 people in my school. This means that:

a + b + c + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) + D = 360

The problem states that:

15 take calculus, physics, and chemistry, so:

A \cap B \cap C = 15

15 don't take any of them, so:

D = 15

75 take both calculus and chemistry, so:

A \cap C = 75

75 take both physics and chemistry, so:

B \cap C = 75

30 take both physics and calculus, so:

A \cap B = 30

Solution:

The problem states that 180 take calculus. So

a + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) = 180

a + 30 + 75 + 15 = 180

a = 180 - 120

a = 60

Twice as many students take chemistry as take physics:

It means that: C = 2B

B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)

B = b + 75 + 30 + 15

B = b + 120

-------------------------------

C = c + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C)

C = c + 75 + 75 + 15

C = c + 165

----------------------------------

Our interest is the number of student that take physics. We have to find B. For this we need to find b. We can write c as a function o b, and then replacing it in the equations that sums all the subsets.

C = 2B

c + 165 = 2(b+120)

c = 2b + 240 - 165

c = 2b + 75

The equation that sums all the subsets is:

a + b + c + (A \cap B) + (A \cap C) + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B \cap C) + D = 360

60 + b + 2b + 75 + 30 + 75 + 15 + 15 = 360

3b + 270 = 360

3b = 90

b = \frac{90}{3}

b = 30

30 students take only physics.

The number of student that take physics is:

B = b + (B \cap C) + (A \cap B) + (A \cap B \cap C)

B = b + 75 + 30 + 15

B = 30 + 120

B = 150

150 students take physics.

Line QR goes through points Q(0,1) and R(2,7). Which equation represents line QR ?
vodomira [7]
(0,1)(2,7)
slope(m) = (7-1) / (2-0) = 6/2 = 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
use either of ur points...(0,1)....x = 0 and y = 1
now sub and find b, the y int
1 = 3(0) + b
1 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3x + 1....or 3x - y = -1

There are 5,280 feet in a mile. What part of a mile, in decimal form, will you drive until you reach the exit.
nalin [4]

Answer:

= 0.1893939

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that there are 5,280 feet in a mile.

Number of feet in a mile = 5,280

Now we will convert feet into miles.

To convert 1000 feet into mile we will multiply  it by 1/5280

1000 feet = 1000 * 1/5280

1000/5280

= 0.1893939

Therefore the answer is = 0.1893939....
