A volleyball player hits a ball from a height of 6 feet with an initial vertical velocity of 16 feet per second. What is the maximum height of the volleyball? Assuming it is not hit by another player, when will the volleyball hit the ground? Round the answers to two decimal places if necessary.
The maximum height of the volleyball is ___
feet.

The volleyball will hit the ground after ___
seconds.

Answers

Answer 1

Considering a quadratic equation, it is found that:

The maximum height of the volleyball is of 19.06 feet.The volleyball will hit the ground after 3.6 seconds.

What is the quadratic equation for an object's height?

Considering the height in feet, it is given by:

h(t) = -4.9t² + v(0)t + h(0)

In which:

v(0) is the initial velocity.h(0) is the initial height.

In this problem, we have that h(0) = 6, v(0) = 16, hence the equation is given by:

h(t) = -4.9t² + 16t + 6

Which is a quadratic equation with coefficients a = -4.9, b = 16, c = 6. Hence the maximum height is found as follows:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac = 16^2 - 4(-4.9)(6) = 373.6[/tex]

[tex]h_{MAX} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a} = -\frac{373.6}{-4(4.9)} = 19.06[/tex]

The maximum height of the volleyball is of 19.06 feet.

It hits the ground at the roots, hence:

The solutions are:

[tex]x_1 = \frac{-16 + \sqrt{373.6}}{-9.8} = -0.34[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = \frac{-16 - \sqrt{373.6}}{-9.8} = 3.6[/tex]

Time is a positive measure, hence:

The volleyball will hit the ground after 3.6 seconds.

Danil, Gabriel and Hadley share some money in the ratios 3:5:9
The difference between the amount of money that Gabriel receives and the amount of
money that Hadley receives is 196 euros.
Work out the amount of money that Danil receives.

Answers

Answer:

Danil received 147 euros

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, Danil,Gabriel and Hardly share some money of 3x:5x:9x ratio then,

From the question,

9x - 5x= 196

or, 4x= 196

or, x = 196/4

or, x = 49 euros

Again,Danil received 3x share of money

=3*49

=147 euros

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio = 3 : 5 : 9

Money received by  Danil = 3x  

Money received by Gabriel = 5x

Money received by Hadley = 9x

Difference in the amount between Gabriel and Hadley = 196 euros

9x - 5x = 196

       4x = 196

         x = 196/4

        x = 49

Money received by Danil = 3*49

                                           = € 147

Answers

They are exempt from income tax and we would get the income tax withheld as $340.

What is tax?

The person does not have another source of income, and there are no exceptions that are claimed by the person.

The withheld tax which is held every week can be calculated as;

Amount of income tax = 30 % of 1,166

Amount of income tax = $339.6

Amount of income tax = $340

Hence, they are exempt from income tax and we would get the income tax withheld as $340.

The fair interval illustrates a sample space

The interval that will make a fair decision is from 5 to 20

How to determine the fair interval?

From the question, we understand that:

Beth plays the lead, and if the integer is even, Leslie plays the lead, if otherwise

Since they choose odd and even integers, then the sample space must be divisible by the number of people (i.e 2 people)

The sample space (S) is calculated as:

S = Highest - Least + 1

A) from 2 to 10

S = 10 - 2 + 1 = 9

B) from 3 to 15

S = 15 - 3 + 1 = 13

C) from 5 to 20

S = 20 - 5 + 1 = 16

D) from 5 to 25

S = 25 - 5 + 1 = 21

Only 16 can be divisible by 2

Hence, the interval that will make a fair decision is from 5 to 20

Parallelogram ABCD has the following vertices: A(3,6), B(6,8), C(9,6), and D(6,4). In two ut more complete sentences, explain how you can use the coordinates of the vertices to prove that parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus.​

Answers

Explanation:

A rhombus is a parallelogram in which the diagonals are mutual perpendicular bisectors. The coordinates of the vertices can be used to show ...

the diagonals bisect each otherthe diagonals are perpendicular

When both these conditions are met, the quadrilateral is a rhombus.

__

Mutual Bisectors

The diagonals will have the same midpoint (bisect each other) if the sum of the coordinates at the ends of one diagonal is the same as the sum of the end point coordinates of the other diagonal:

  A +C = B +D

  (3, 6) +(9, 6) = (6, 8) +(6, 4)

  (3+9, 6 +6) = (6 +6, 8 +4)

  (12, 12) = (12, 12) . . . . . . midpoints are the same; ABCD is a parallelogram

__

Perpendicular

The diagonals will be perpendicular if the sum of the products of the coordinate differences of their end points is zero.

  AC⋅BD = (C -A)⋅(D -B) = (9 -3, 6 -6)⋅(6 -6, 4 -8)

  = (6, 0)⋅(0, -4) . . . . . end point differences; we want their dot-product

  = (6)(0) +(0)(-4) = 0 +0 = 0 . . . . diagonals are perpendicular

_____

Additional comment

The midpoints are computed as (A+C)/2 and (B+D)/2. We have multiplied each of them by 2 to simplify the arithmetic. Our resulting sums of (12, 12) must be divided by 2 to get the actual midpoint of the rhombus: (6, 6).

The notion of "dot product" is a vector notion. Two vectors are perpendicular when their dot product is zero. The dot product is the scalar sum of the products of corresponding coordinates.

The volume of the cone and pyramid are the same.

What is the Volume of a Triangular Pyramid and a Cone?

Volume of cone = ⅓[πr² × height of cone)

Volume of triangular pyramid = ⅓[(½bh × height of pyramid)]

Also note the following:

Area of a circle = πr²

Area of a triangle = ½bh

Part A:

Area of circle 1 = πr² = π(12²) = 144π units²

Area of circle 2 = πr² = π(6²) = 36π units²

Area of circle 3 = πr² = π(3²) = 9π units²

Area of triangle 1 = ½(24)(12π) = 144π units²

Area of triangle 2 = ½(12)(6π) = 36π units²

Area of triangle 3 = ½(6)(3π) = 9π units²

Part B: Based on our results in part A, the volumes of the cone and pyramid, having the same height are the same.

What is Surface Area?

Surface area is simply the amount of space covering the outside of a 3-dimensional object.

The surface area of a rectangular prism is expressed;

A = 2( wl + hl + hw )

Given the data in the question;

Height of the rectangular prism h = 18inWidth w = 16inLength l = 20inSurface area of the rectangular prism A = ?

To determine the least amount of wrapping paper that Amy needs to wrap the present in the shape of a rectangular prism, we substitute our given values into the expression above.

A = 2( wl + hl + hw )

A = 2( (16in×20in) + (18in×20in) + (18in×16in) )

A = 2( 320in² + 360in² + 288in² )

A = 2( 968in² )

A = 1936in²
