Answer: The ball hits the ground at 5 s
Step-by-step explanation:
The question seems incomplete and there is not enough data. However, we can work with the following function to understand this problem:
(1)
Where 
models the height of the ball in meters and 
the time.
Now, let's find the time when the ball Sara kicked hits the ground (this is when 
):
(2)
Rearranging the equation:
(3)
Dividing both sides of the equation by 
:
(4)
This quadratic equation can be written in the form 
, and can be solved with the following formula:
(5)
Where:
Substituting the known values:
(6)
Solving we have the following result:
This means the ball hit the ground 5 seconds after it was kicked by Sara.
So here you are trying to find out what times .30 (30%) subtracted the original price will give you 18.75. Because it is 30% discount you want to use 70% (.7) so that you can find the price before not the price after.
so .7(x) = 18.75
Which you then divide and then get 26.79 dollars.
Answer:
1.53 would be the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are rounding to the nearest hundredth you are rounding to the 2nd decimal place. Since the next number is under 5, we would just drop it.
Okay, well we start out with the equation P=66, where P is perimeter. You should create equations using variables to explain each piece of information you are given. Follow the equations below and see if you can understand how to do another one like this. In this problem, l is length and w is width.
P = 66 The perimeter is equal to 66
l = 3 + w The length of one side is 3 more than the width
2l + 2w = 66 A rectangle's perimeter is calculated by adding the lengths and widths
2(3 + w) + 2w = 66 Use what you know about length from step 2 to replace the variable in step 3
6 + 2w + 2w = 66 Multiply
6 + 4w = 66 Add like terms
4w = 60 Subtract
w = 15 Divide
l = 3 + w Remember step 2?
l = 3 + 15 Replace the variable using your value for w
l = 18 Add
And you're done! Always check your work. It helps to create a picture of a rectangle while you're doing these problems as well. As you get used to these problems more and more, you can show more or less work than I've shown, but try to stay true to what the teacher asks of you. Good luck!
