Answer: 4\frac{5}{12}\ feet

Step-by-step solution:

Leon’s older brother’s height is 4\frac{3}{4} feet

=\frac{16+3}{4}=\frac{19}{4} feet

Because Leon is 1/3 foot shorter than his brother,

Leon’s height = \frac{19}{4}-\frac{1}{3}

Convert to like fractions by multiplying numerator and denominator: multiply 3 for the first fraction and 4 for the second.

So, Leon’s height = \frac{57}{12}-\frac{4}{12}

=\frac{57-4}{12}\\=\frac{53}{12}=4\frac{5}{12} feet

Therefore, Leon’s height is 4\frac{5}{12}\ feet feet.

A soccer ball is kicked into the air from the ground. If the ball reaches a maximum height of 25 ft and spends a total of 2.5 s
zzz [12365]
To find the height equation for the soccer ball's trajectory, we start with the acceleration due to gravity of g=9.81 m/s². Converting this gives us approximately 32.18 ft/s², rounded to 32 ft/s². The height formula is h = -g/2 * t² + vt + h0. Setting t=0 and h=0, we deduce that h0=0. Thus h=-16t² + vt applies. Given that the ball reaches 50 ft in 2.5 s, it reaches 25 ft in 1.25 s. Now, using 25=-16(1.25)² + v(1.25), we find velocity v=50/1.25, which simplifies to 40. Therefore, the height equation is h = -16t² + 40t.

Please answer ASAP<br><br> 5x−29&gt;−34 OR 2x+31&lt;29
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

x > -1 or x < -1

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first inequality, 5x - 29 > -34:

Step 1: Add 29 to both sides to isolate the term with x

5x > -34 + 29

Step 2: Simplify the right side

5x > -5

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5

x > -1

Therefore, x must be greater than -1.

For the second inequality, 2x + 31 < 29:

Step 1: Subtract 31 from both sides

2x < 29 - 31

Step 2: Simplify the right side

2x < -2

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2

x < -1

Thus, x must be less than -1.
