An amusement park ride lifts seated riders 265 feet above the ground. The riders are then dropped and experience free fall until the brakes are activated 105 feet above the ground. The function h=-16t^2+265 represents the height h (in feet) of the riders t seconds after they are dropped. How long do the riders experience free fall? Round your solution to the nearest hundredth.
The riders experience free fall for about ___ seconds.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The riders experience free fall for about 3.12 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find t when  h = 105

105= [tex]-16t^{2} +256[/tex]

0= [tex]16t^{2}[/tex] +160

0 = -16([tex]t^{2}[/tex]-10)

[tex]t^{2}[/tex] - 10 = 0

[tex]t^{2}[/tex] = 10

[tex]t = \sqrt{10}[/tex]

Answer 2

The riders experience free fall for about 3.16 seconds.

What is a function?

A function has an input and an output.

A function can be one-to-one or onto one.

It simply indicated the relationships between the input and the output.

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 1

f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5

The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.

We have,

To find how long the riders experience free fall, we need to find the time when the height is 105 feet above the ground.

So, we need to solve the equation:

-16t² + 265 = 105

Adding 16t² to both sides, we get:

16t² = 160

Dividing both sides by 16, we get:

t² = 10

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

t = ±3.16

Since we are only interested in the positive value of t, we can round 3.16 to the nearest hundredth to get:

t = 3.16 seconds

Therefore,

The riders experience free fall for about 3.16 seconds.

Need help with geometric series'!
Please include a step by step explanation.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] - 13107[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to evaluate the following Geometric Series ,

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow \sum _{n=1}^8 (-4)^{n-1 }[/tex]

In a geometric series, a common number is multiplied to the previous term in order to find the next term . And that common number is called common ratio (r) .

As we know that ,

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow \sum_{x = 1}^n f(x) = f(1) + f(2) + \dots + f(n) [/tex]

So , we can write the series as ,

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow (-4)^{1-1}+(-4)^{2-1}+\dots +(-4)^{8-1} [/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow (-4)^0 + (-4)^1+(-4)^2+\dots +(-4)^7 [/tex]

We can find the common ratio by dividing and successive term by its preceding term , as ;

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow r =\dfrac{-4}{1}=-4 [/tex]

Again , here ;

First term = a = [tex](-4)^0=1[/tex]Common ratio = [tex]-4[/tex]number of terms (n) = 8

And we can find the sum of geometric series using the formula , ( this is used when the value of r is less than 1 , here it is -4 ) .

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow \Bigg[ Sum = \dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}\Bigg] [/tex]

where the symbols have their usual meaning.

On substituting the respective values, we have;

[tex]\displaystyle \longrightarrow\rm{ Sum }=\dfrac{ 1\{1-(-4)^8\}}{1-(-4)}\\ [/tex]

Simplify ,

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow \rm{Sum} = \dfrac{1-65536}{1+4}\\[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow \rm{Sum} = \dfrac{-65535}{5} [/tex]

Simplify by dividing ,

[tex]\displaystyle\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{ \rm{Sum} = -13107}} [/tex]

And we are done !

Kilani and Adrian are starting a nutrition program. Kilani currently consumes 1200 calories a day and will increase that number by 100 calories each day. Adrian currently consumes 3230 calories a day and will decrease that number by 190 each day. They will continue this pattern until they are both consuming the same number of calories per day. In how many days will that be? Be sure to define your variables, write an equation, and answer the question in context.

Answers

Answer:

7 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the number of days = a

Kilani currently consumes 1200 calories a day and will increase that number by 100 calories each day.

1200 calories + 100 calories × a

1200 + 100a

Adrian currently consumes 3230 calories a day and will decrease that number by 190 each day.

3230 calories - 190 calories × a

3230 - 190a

The number of days that they would be consuming the same number of calories =

Kilani = Adrian

1200 + 100a = 3230 - 190a

Collect like terms

190a + 100a = 3230 - 1200

290a = 2030

a = 2030/290

a = 7 days

Therefore, the would be consuming the same number of calories in 7 days

Answers

The domain and range of the linear function described are given as follows:

The domain is all real values from 0 to 8.5 and the range is all real values from 0 to 425.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem, the car travels 425 miles at a speed of 50 miles per hour, hence for the amount of miles left for the car to travel after t hours is given by a linear function with m = -50 and b = 425, that is:

d(t) = 425 - 50t.

The domain is the set of all possible values of the input, which considering that the car travels while the distance is greater than 0, is given by:

d(t) > 0 -> 425 - 50t > 0 -> t < 8.5.

The range is the set of all possible values of the input, which is the distance remaining, assuming real values from 0 to 425.

Hence, the correct option is:

The domain is all real values from 0 to 8.5 and the range is all real values from 0 to 425.

bobby's cat runs x mph. bobby's dog runs twice as fast as his cat. if the cat and the dog start running away from each other, how far away from each other will they be after 30 minutes

Answers

Answer:

They will be 0.5x miles away from each other.

Calculation of the distance:

Since Bobby's cat runs x mph. Bobby's dog runs twice as fast as his cat.

So here the speed of the dog should be 2x

Now we know that

Here distance of cat should be x of 30 minutes or half hour = 0.5x miles

And, Distance of dog should be 2x of 0.5 = x miles

So, the difference should be

= x - 0.5

= 0.5x miles

hence, They will be 0.5x miles away from each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1.5x miles, because you already know that the cat's speed is 0.5x miles, and the dog is x miles, so when you add it together, you get 1.5x miles
