Given function : y = -16x^2 + 24x + 1.

Where the height y, in feet, of a football x seconds after it is thrown.

We need to explain what information does the zero of the equation the 6 = -16x^2 + 24x + 1 represents.

<em>We can see that y is being replaced by 6 on left side of the equation.</em>

<h3>And y represents the height of the ball after x seconds.</h3><h2>Therefore, correct statement is "when the ball is 6 ft above the ground".</h2>

You are given that a wheel has a radius of 2 feet and a spin rate of 10 revolutions per minute. Describe how you would determine
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

About 126 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

We know r = 2 feet, and that the wheel has an angular speed of 10 rpms, or 10 revolutions per minute. Our goal is to get the speed in ft/sec.

10 rev            1 minute             2π radians            2 feet

-----------  ×    ----------------   ×    ------------------    ×   ------------

1 minute       60 seconds         1 revolution           1 radian

= 10 * 2π * 2 = 126 ft/minute

The answer is reasonable. Another, simple approach to this would be using the formula 2π * r * rpm. If so, 2π * 2 * 10 which would be 126 ft/minute.

A child’s wading pool is 3.8 feet wide, 5.5 feet long, and 1.2 feet deep. How many gallons of water will the pool hold? ( Use 1
vichka [17]
First, we find the volume of the pool. 

3.8*5.5*1.2= 25.08.

Then we convert the feet into gallons.
25.08*7.5 = 188.1

The pool will hold 188.1 gallons of water.

The organizers of a fair projected a 25 percent increase in attendance this year over that of last year, but attendance this yea
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

The organizers of a fair projected a 25 percent increase in attendance this year over that of last year

Let x = the attendance for last year

The projected attendance for this year would be last year's attendance + 25% of last year's attendance. This means

Projected attendance for this year

= x + 25/100 × x

= x + 0.25x = 1.25x

But attendance for this year actually decreased by 20 percent.

This means the actual attendance for this year would be

attendance for last year - 20% of attendance for last year. This means

Actual attendance for this year is

x - 20/100 × x

= x - 0.2x = 0.8x

percentage of the projected attendance that was the actual attendance would be

0.8x / 1.25x × 100 = 0.64 × 100

= 64%

The correct option is C

What's 362, 584 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand
hammer [34]
To round up a number, you will add one value to the digit if the lower digit number is 5 or more. If the number is lower than 5, then you don't have to add one value.

In this case, you need to round up to hundred thousand. So, you need to look at the ten thousand digit which was 6. Since it was more than 5, you can add 1 value to the ten thousand digit. Then 362,584 will become 400,000
