A) The independent variable in this scenario is the quantity of books purchased.
C) The overall cost for the year hinges on the number of books obtained.
E) The output of this function is the total yearly cost.
According to the vertical angles theorem, angle BAC becomes 50°. Subsequently, angle B is calculated as 180 - (50 + 30) = 100°. Hence, for the similar triangles ABC, EDC, and EFG, the angles in triangle EFG are 30°, 50°, and 100°.
The arrow reaches a height of 48 feet at about 0.55 seconds and again at approximately 5.45 seconds.
Explanation
The formula provided is: 
Given the initial velocity as 96 ft/s, we have 
To determine when the arrow attains a height of 48 feet, substitute
into the formula:

Therefore, the arrow is at 48 feet height at roughly 0.55 seconds and again at 5.45 seconds.
