A ladder 25 feet long is leaning against the wall of a building. Initially, the foot of the ladder is 7 feet from the wall. The

foot of the ladder begins to slide at a rate of 2 ft/sec, causing the top of the ladder to slide down the wall. The location of the foot of the ladder at time t seconds is given by the parametric equations (7 +2t, 0). The location of the top of the ladder will be given by parametric equations (0, y(t)). The formula for y(t)=√[625−(7+2t)²]. The domain of t values for y(t) ranges from 0 to 9.
Calculate the average velocity of the top of the ladder on each of these time intervals (correct to three decimal places):
a) [0,2]
b) [2,4]
c) [6,8]
d) [8,9]

a ball is thrown with a slingshot at a velocity of 110ft/sec at an angle of 20 degrees above the ground from a height of 4.5 ft.
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

t=2.47\ s  

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that models the height of the ball in feet as a function of time is

h(t) = h_0 + s_0t -16t ^ 2

Where h_0 is the initial height, s_0 is the initial velocity and t is the time in seconds.

We know that the initial height is:

h_0 = 4.5\ ft

The initial speed is:

s_0 = 110sin(20\°)\\\\s_0 = 37.62\ ft/s

So the equation is:

h (t) = 4.5 + 37.62t -16t ^ 2

The ball hits the ground when when h(t) = 0

So

4.5 + 37.62t -16t ^ 2 = 0

We use the quadratic formula to solve the equation for t

For a quadratic equation of the form

at^2 +bt + c

The quadratic formula is:

t=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}

In this case

a= -16\\\\b=37.62\\\\c=4.5

Therefore

t=\frac{-37.62\±\sqrt{(37.62)^2 -4(-16)(4.5)}}{2(-16)}

t_1=-0.114\ s\\\\t_2=2.47\ s  

We take the positive solution.

Finally the ball takes 2.47 seconds to touch the ground

billy is creating a circular garden divided into 8 equal sections. The diameter of the garden is 12 feet. what is the area, in s
xxTIMURxx [149]
Area=πr^2

 find the area then divide by 8


we know that diameter=2radius or diameter/2=radius so 
12=diameter
12/2=radius=6
subsitute
area=π(6)^2
area=36π
divide 36π by 8
36π/8=18π/4=9π/2π=4.5π
area of one section is 4.5π square feet or if we aprox pito 3.14159 then we get
4.5(3.14159)=area=14.1372 square feet or 14.14 square feet
