A ladder that is 14 feet long is placed against a building. The bottom of the ladder is 6 feet from the base of the building.



In feet, how high up the side of the building is the top of the ladder? Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.7ft

Step-by-step explanation:

this involves the Pythagoras theorem: base²  x height²  = hypotenuse²

b²  x h²  = hyp²

6²  x h²  = 14²

36 x h²  = 196

h²  = 196 - 36

h²  = 160

h = square root of 160

h = 12.65 - to the nearest tenth

 = 12.7ft

Nelda baked two kinds of pasta in pans. Each pan was the same size. She sliced one pan of pasta into 4 equal pieces. She sliced the other pan into 6 equal pieces. How can the pans of pasta now be sliced so that both pans have the​ same-sized pieces? If Nelda has served 8 pieces from 1 pan so​ far, what fraction of 1 pan has she​ served?

Answers

Answer:

6 equal parts;  8 equal parts

Both those will go into 24.

Step-by-step explanation:  Each of six slices of the first pasta has the area 1%2F6 of the entire pan.

Each of eight slices of the second pasta has the area 1%2F8 of the original pan.

Nelda will cut each 1%2F6 in 4 equal pieces to get 1%2F24.

She also will cut each 1%2F8 in 3 equal pieces to get 1%2F24.

solve the equation by completing the square. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 15 - 15 = 21

+ 15 and - 15 cancel out

So x = 21

Let's solve the longer way

x + 15 - 15 = 21

x + 15 = 21 + 15 .      (adding 15 to both sides)

x = 21                       (Subtracting 15 from both sides)

A ball is thrown up in the air, and it's height (in feet) as a function of time (in seconds) can be written as h(t) = -16t2 + 32t + 6. Describe in detail (using formulas and/or specific steps needed) TWO ways to find the maximum height reached by the ball.

Answers

Answer:

1) Using properties of the quadratic equation:

Here the height equation is:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 6

We can see that the leading coefficient is negative, this means that the arms of the graph will open downwards.

Then, the vertex of the quadratic equation will be the maximum.

Remember that for a general quadratic equation:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = y

the x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/2a

Then in our case, the vertex is at:

t = -32/(2*-16) = 1

The maximum height will be the height equation evaluated in this time:

h(1) = -16*1^2 + 32*1 + 6 = 22

The maximum height is 22ft

2) Second method, using physics.

We know that an object reaches its maximum height when the velocity is equal to zero (the velocity equal to zero means that, at this point, the object stops going upwards).

If the height equation is:

h(t) = -16*t^2 + 32*t + 6

the velocity equation is the first derivation of h(t)

Remember that for a function f(x) = a*x^n

we have that:

df(x)/dx = n*a*x^(n-1)

Then:

v(t) = dh(t)/dt = 2*(-16)*t + 32 + 0

v(t) = -32*t + 32

Now we need to find the value of t such that the velocity is equal to zero:

v(t) = 0 = -32*t + 32

       32*t = 32

            t = 32/32 = 1

So the maximum height is at t = 1

(same as before)

Now we just need to evaluate the height equation in t = 1:

h(1) = -16*1^2 + 32*1 + 6 = 22

The maximum height is 22ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Your grid doesn't come with any coordinate axes, so you will need to draw those and label them. You will also need to determine the number of grid squares for each unit. (I suggest 2 grid squares per unit to give you a little more distance between the points you plot. The attachment shows 5 small squares per unit. You may not have this much space on your graph.)

Plot the points. Once you do this, you can see that their horizontal difference is 3 units and their vertical difference is 1 unit. The right point is above the left point, so the slope is positive:

The polygons are similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the corresponding sides and angles of similar polygons must be in some constant proportion.

Therefore, we can find the ratio between corresponding sides to see if that ratio is maintained.

The side marked 3 cm in the smaller figure corresponds with the side marked 3.75 cm in the larger figure. This proportion is [tex]\frac{3}{3.75}[/tex].

The side marked 5 in the smaller figure corresponds with the side marked 6.25 cm in the larger figure. This proportion is [tex]\frac{5}{6.25}[/tex].

If these polygons are similar, these proportions must be equal.

[tex]\frac{3}{3.75}=\frac{5}{6.25},\\0.8=0.8\:\checkmark[/tex]

Checking, we see that these proportions are equal, and therefore the polygons are similar.

Volume is defined as the space occupied within the boundaries of an object in three-dimensional space. It is also known as the capacity of the object.

Given that, James is using cement to make a new sidewalk and new steps,

He will make a new rectangular sidewalk that is 8 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 0.25 foot thick.

Volume = length x width x height

Volume = 8 x 4 x 0.25 = 8 ft³

Hence, the volume, of the cement used to make the sidewalk is 8 ft³

A particle is moving with acceleration a ( t ) = 18 t + 16 . Its position at time t = 0 is s ( 0 ) = 10 and its velocity at time t = 0 is v ( 0 ) = 16 . What is its position at time t = 8 ?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]s(8)=2186[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A particle is moving with acceleration modeled by the function:

[tex]a(t)=18t+16[/tex]

We are given that its position s(t) at t = 0 is 10 and that its velocity v(t) at t = 0 is 16.

And we want to find its position at t = 8.

Velocity is the integral of the acceleration. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle v(t)=\int a(t)\, dt=\int 18t+16\, dt[/tex]

Find the velocity. Remember the constant of integration!

[tex]v(t)=9t^2+16t+C[/tex]

Since v(t) is 16 when t = 0:

[tex](16)=9(0)^2+16(0)+C\Rightarrow C=16[/tex]

Hence, our velocity is given by:

[tex]v(t)=9t^2+16t+16[/tex]

Position is the integral of the velocity. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle s(t)=\int v(t)\, dt=\int 9t^2+16t+16\, dt[/tex]

Integrate:

[tex]\displaystyle s(t)=3t^3+8t^2+16t+C[/tex]

s(t) is 10 when t = 10. Hence:

[tex]C=10[/tex]

So, our position function is:

[tex]s(t)=3t^3+8t^2+16t+10[/tex]

The position at t = 8 will be:

[tex]s(8)=3(8)^3+8(8)^2+16(8)+10=2186[/tex]
