- A man throws a ball into the air with a velocity of 96 ft/s. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t to determine when the height of the ball will be 48 feet. Round to the nearest tenth.arrow_forwardUse the formula I = Prt to solve for the principal. P, for : (a) 1= $1380. R = 5%. T = 3 yeas (b)in generalarrow_forwardThe approximate distance d (in feet) that travel after noticing that they must come to a sudden stop is given by the following formula, where x is the speed of the car (in mi/h): d=x+x220 If a car travels 75 ft. before slopping, what was its speed before the brakes were applied?arrow_forward
- An arrow is shot from the ground into the air at an initial speed of 108 ft/sec. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t to determine when the arrow will be 180 feet from the ground. Round the nearest tenth of a second.arrow_forwardSolve the equation for the indicated variable. wd=rTH; for Tarrow_forwardA bullet is fired straight up from a BB gun with initial velocity 1120 feet per second at an initial height of 8 feet. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t+8 to determine how many seconds it will take for the bullet to hit the ground. (That is, when will h=0 ?)arrow_forward
