A model rocket is launched from the ground with an initial velocity of 160 ft/sec. how long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? Show all work in the space provided. Assume the model rocket’s parachute failed to deploy and the rocket fell back to the ground. How long would it take the rocket to return to Earth from the time it was launched? Show all work in the space provided.

Answers

Answer 1
The formula we need is
[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+v_0 t+h_0[/tex], where v₀ is the starting velocity and h₀ is the initial height.  Using the velocity and starting height from our problem we have
[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+160t+0[/tex].  The path of this rocket will be a downward facing parabola, so there will be a maximum.  This maximum will be at the vertex of the graph.  To find the vertex we start out with [tex]x= \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex], which in our case is [tex]x= \frac{-160}{2(-16)}= \frac{-160}{-32} = 5[/tex].  It will take 5 seconds for the rocket to reach its maximum height.  Plugging this back into our formula gives us
[tex]h(5)=-16(5^2)+160(5)+0 \\=-16(25)+800 \\=-400+800=400[/tex]
The rocket's maximum height is 400 feet.
We set our formula equal to zero to find the time it takes to hit the ground, then we factor:
[tex]0=-16t^2+160t+0 \\0=-16t^2+160t \\0=-16t(t-10)[/tex]
Using the zero product property, we know that either -16t =0 or t-10=0.  When -16t=0 is at t=0, when the rocket is launched. t-10=0 gives us an answer of t=10, so the rocket reaches the ground again at 10 seconds.

You bring 18oz of shampoo for 3.99 or 24oz for 5.99 WICh is the better buy explain

Answers

18 oz for 3.99 = .22 per unit
24 oz for 5.99 = .25 per unit

the 18 oz bottle is the better buy because it costs less per unit than the 24 oz bottle.

Final answer:

To decide the better purchase between two sizes of shampoo, the cost per ounce is calculated, showing that the 18oz option at $0.22 per ounce is more economical than the 24oz option at $0.25 per ounce.

Explanation:

To determine which shampoo option is the better buy, we calculate the cost per ounce for each option. Cost per ounce is calculated by dividing the total cost of the product by the total number of ounces.

For the 18oz shampoo at $3.99, cost per ounce = $3.99 / 18oz = $0.22 per ounce.

For the 24oz shampoo at $5.99, cost per ounce = $5.99 / 24oz = $0.25 per ounce.

The 18oz shampoo at $0.22 per ounce is the better buy compared to the 24oz shampoo at $0.25 per ounce because you are paying less per ounce.

If an object has two forces acting on it how can the net force equal 0

Answers

Answer: The net force can be “0” when the two forces are equal and acting in opposite directions on the object. This situation creates an equilibrium.

When two forces act on an object with opposite directions and equal magnitudes, the net force can be zero, leading to equilibrium. This state of equilibrium ensures no acceleration in any direction. Internal forces within a system always occur in opposite pairs, resulting in a net internal force of zero.

Net Force Must Be Zero: When an object has two forces acting on it, the net force can equal zero if the forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, canceling each other out. This results in a balanced force system, leading to equilibrium.

Examples of Equilibrium: One example is a car moving at a constant speed on a highway due to balanced forces. In static equilibrium, both the net force and net torque on an object must be zero, showing no acceleration in any direction.

Internal Forces: Internal forces within a system always appear in equal and opposite pairs, resulting in a net internal force of zero within the system.

A square dartboard contains a red square and a blue square that overlap. A dart hits a random point on the board.





Express your probability as a decimal rounded to 2 decimal places.

Answers

They want to know the probability of landing in the blue and red section at the same time. In other words, they want to know the probability of landing in the purple section.

We'll need the area of the purple square. This square is 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. This is because 4 - 2.5 = 1.5

So the purple square has an area of 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 square inches

Divide this over the total area of the largest square (which is 9x9) to get 2.25/81 = 0.02777... where the 7's go on forever

Round that to two decimal places. The final answer is 0.03

Side note: 2.25/81 is equivalent to the reduced fraction 1/36 (express 2.25/81 as 225/8100 and then divide both parts by the GCF 225)

Juanita keeps 25% of the profit from her ice cream shop.

The shop makes $750 per month.

We have to find how much money Juanita will keep.

By the given condition,

Juanita will keep 25% of $750 profit

Now 25% of $750 is 25 /100 * 750

= 18750/100

= $187.50

Therefore Juanita will keep $187.50 of her total profit of $750 per month.

Hey there
SO we know that the total amount that she brought is 24 cookies.
we also know that 2/3 of the cookies are choco chip.
So to find the answer we need to divide 24/3 which gives us 8 so one third of 24 is eight if we multiply 8 by two we get 16 which is 2/3 of 24.
Miranda has 24 cookies

Option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : d to the 7th power times g to the 13th power all over d to the 2nd power times g to the 7th power.

To find : The correct  simplification

Solution :

d to the 7th power = [tex]d^7[/tex]

g to the 13th power = [tex]g^{13}[/tex]

d to the 7th power times g to the 13th power =  [tex]d^7\times g^{13}[/tex]

d to the 2nd power = [tex]d^2[/tex]

g to the 7th power = [tex]g^7[/tex]

d to the 2nd power times g to the 7th power =  [tex]d^2\times g^{7}[/tex]

According to question,

d to the 7th power times g to the 13th power all over d to the 2nd power times g to the 7th power.

[tex]=\frac{d^7\times g^{13}}{d^2\times g^7}[/tex]

What is the volume of a square pyramid with a base length of 5 cm and a height of 6 cm?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

50cm3 its the right answer i did the math

Given is a square pyramid with a base length of 5 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters.

The volume formula of square pyramid is given by :-

[tex] volume = \frac{1}{3} (base\; area)(height) [/tex]

Base area would be a square of side length equal to 5 centimeters.

Area of square = (side)² = 5 × 5 = 25 squared centimeters.

Now, volume of square pyramid = [tex] \frac{1}{3} (25)(6) [/tex] = 50 cubic centimeters.

So, final answer is 50 cubic centimeters.

A line with a slope of 3/2 passes through (4,-1). Write the equation.

Answers

Hey there!

We're going to write the equation for this line in slope-intercept form, y = mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. In order to write it in this form, as stated in the name, we need the slope and y-intercept. Since we have the slope given, we can use the points we have and set up that equation with the given slope to solve for b. We'll use the x and y values and throw them into the equation. We have:

-1 = 3/2(4) + b
-1 = 12/2 + b
-1 = 6 + 6
-6 = b

Now, since we have our slope and y-intercept, we can write our equation with these two values:

y = 3/2x - 6

Hope this helps!

we know that

the equation of the line in the form point-slope is equal to

[tex]y-y1=m*(x-x1)[/tex]

in this problem we have

[tex]point(4,-1)\\\\m=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]y+1=\frac{3}{2}*(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-6-1\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x-7[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-7[/tex]

Pat and Julie share some money in the ratio 2:5 Julie gets £45 more than pat how much money did pat get?

Answers

Final answer:

By setting up an equation based on the given ratio 2:5 and the additional information that Julie receives £45 more than Pat, we find that Pat received £30.

Explanation:

The question deals with understanding ratios and how they can be used to solve problems involving sharing amounts in specified proportions. Pat and Julie share some money in the ratio 2:5, and it's given that Julie gets £45 more than Pat. To approach this problem, let's designate the amount Pat receives as 2x and the amount Julie receives as 5x, where x is a common multiplier.

It is stated that Julie gets £45 more than Pat, which can be represented as 5x = 2x + 45.

Solving the equation for x gives us 3x = 45, hence x = 15.

To find out how much Pat received, we substitute x = 15 into 2x, giving us 2(15) = 30.

Therefore, Pat got £30.
