A helicopter hovers 40 ft above the ground. Then the helicopter climbs at a rate of 21 ft/s. Write a rule that represents the helicopter’s height h above the ground as a function of time t. What is the helicopter’s height after 45 s?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The initial height of the helicopter is 40 ft.

For every second (let's call time as t) he climbs upward, he goes 21 ft.

So we can write height of helicopter as 40+21t with respect to t.

In functional notation we can write the height (f(t)) of the helicopter at time (t) as:

f(t)=40+21t

To find the height of the helicopter after 45 seconds, we plug in 45 into the equation in place of t to get:

f(t)=40+21(45)=985

So after 45 seconds, the height of the helicopter is 985 ft.


ANSWER:

  • Equation modelling height of helicopter with respect to time: f(t)=40+21t
  • Height of helicopter after 45 seconds is 985 ft.
Answer 2
Answer: starts at 40
each second climbs 21 ft
40+21(number of second)

h=40+21t
at t=45
h=40+21(45)
h=40+945
h=985

height is 985
rule is h=21t+40 or h=40+21t

Find the probability that the number is in set A’ giving your answer as a decimal

Answers

Answer:

0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the number is in set A’ is the probability that a number is not in set A.

From the venn diagram attached below, they are two sets, set A and set B. Set A has 3 elements {15, 12 18}, Set B has 5 elements {12 18 10 14 16}.

The total number of elements in the universal set is 10 i.e {10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19}

therefore the number of elements in set A' is 7, i.e {10 11 13 14 16 17 19}.

the probability that the number is in set A’  = number of elements in set A'/number of elements in the universal set

probability that the number is in set A’ = 7 / 10 = 0.7

Answers

If you would like to simplify (3n - 2m)^2, you can do this using the following steps:

(3n - 2m)^2 = 3^2 * n^2 - 3 * 2 * 2 * n * m + 2^2 * m^2 = 9n^2 - 12nm + 4m^2

The correct result would be d. 9n^2 - 12nm + 4m^2.
