Answer:

around 1.5 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

basically you wanna figure out at what time is the height=0

since h(t) represents height, set it to 0 then solve for t

i believe you might have forgotten the t in the equation so i assumed it was -167t

0=-167t+256

-256=-167t

t=1.53293413174

around 1.5 seconds after it was dropped

alternatively, you could plug the equation into desmos, replacing h(t) with y and t with x and find the x intercept

Your utility company charges 13 cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity. What is the daily cost of keeping lit a 75 watt light bu

Tresset [83]

we know that

$1 Kw=1000 w$

The company charges $13$ cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity

$13 cents=0.13 dollars\\\\ 75w=\frac{75}{1000} kw\\\\ 15w=\frac{15}{1000} kw$

Step $1$

Find the cost for the light bulb

a) in one day

$\frac{75}{1000} *12=0.9\ kw\ hour$

$Cost=0.13*0.9$

Cost=$ $0.117$

b) In a year

$\frac{75}{1000} *12=0.9\ kw\ hour$

$0.9*365=328.5\ kw\ hour$

$Cost=0.13*328.5$

Cost=$ $42.71$

Step $2$

Find the cost for the led bulb

a) in one day

$\frac{15}{1000} *12=0.18\ kw\ hour$

$Cost=0.13*0.18$

Cost=$ $0.0234$

b) In a year

$\frac{15}{1000} *12=0.18\ kw\ hour$

$0.18*365=65.7\ kw\ hour$

$Cost=0.13*65.7$

Cost=$ $8.54$

Step $3$

Find the difference in cost

$Save=42.71-8.54\\ Save=34.17 dollars$

therefore

the answer is

$34.17 dollars$

The plot shown below describes the relationship between the average income in a city and the average rent for a 111-bedroom apar

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The average change in rent can be determined by substituting the value of <em>X</em> as 5000 in the regression equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple linear regression line is used to predict the value of the dependent variable from the independent variable.

The general form is:

$Y=\alpha +\beta X$

Dependent variables are those variables that are under study, i.e. they are being observed for any changes when the other variables in the model are changed.

The dependent variables are also known as response variables.

In this case the dependent variable is the average change in rent for a 1-bedroom apartment.

Independent variables are the variables that are being altered to see a proportionate change in the dependent variable. In a regression model there can be one or more than one independent variables.

The independent variables are also known as the predictor variables.

In this case the independent variable is the average income in a city.

So, for an increase of $5,000 in incomes the average change in rent can be determined by substituting the value of <em>X</em> as 5000 in the regression equation.

As the number of pages in a photo book increases, the price of the book also increases. There is an additional shipping charge o

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality (20 + 0.5x) + 0.15(20 + 0.5x) ≤ $62.10 for x:

20 + .5x + 3 + 0.75x ≤ 62.10

Combining the x terms, we get:

20 + 3 + 1.25x ≤ 62.10.

Combining the constants on the left:

23 + 1.75x ≤ 62.10

Combining the constants:

1.75x = 39.10

Solving for x: 39.10/1.75 = 22.34

Thus, the max number of whole pages she can have in her book is 22.

Wang Hao wants to spend at most $15 on dairy products. Each liter of goat milk costs $2.40 and each liter of cow's milk costs $1

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

2.40g + 1.20c ≤15

Step-by-step explanation:

Each liter of goat milk costs $2.40 and each liter of cow's milk costs $1.20

Let g = liters of goats milk

c = liters of cows milk

What we are buying is the liters times the cost

2.40g + 1.20c

This must be less than or equal to 15 dollars

2.40g + 1.20c ≤15

Derek bought a new car for $32,000. He made a down payment of $17,000 and financed the balance through the car dealer. He was un

Andreyy89

Answer:

$300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Derek bought a new car for $32,000;

The original amount of purchase = $32,000

Down payment = $17,000

Remaining amount = Original amount of purchase - Down payment

= $(32000 -17000)

= $ 15,000

Also;

rate of interest per month is 2%

and the Derek is unable to pay his first monthly payment

thus the interest amount is calculated on principal amount

so for the first month interest is calculated on total principal amount

The month interest payment is then calculated as :

= 15,000 × 2%

= 15,000 × 0.02

= $300
