Translate that into an equation, and we get:

a+b = 24
a-b = 15

If we add these two equations, we get:

2a = 39
a = 39/2 = 19.5

Plug back in a = 19.5 and solve for b

a + b = 24
19.5 + b = 24
b = 4.5

The two numbers are 19.5 and 4.5.

A football is kicked vertically upward from a height of 2 feet with an initial speed of 50 feet per second. The formula h=2+50t-

Oksanka [162]

Answer: 38 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of motion of a body thrown vertically upwards:

$\displaystyle\\\boxed {h=h_0+v_0t-\frac{gt^2}{2} \ \ \ \ \ (1)}$ ,

$h_0=2 \ feet\ \ \ \ v_0=50\ feet\ per\ second.$

Substitute in formula (1) the value t=2 c:

$h=2+50*2-16*2^2\\h=2+100-16*2*2\\h=102-64\\h=38\ feet.$

Alchen [17]

Answer:

$300,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Labor cost = $11,000

Parking cost= $7,000

Parking Labor cost = $ 18,000

Parking Revenue = ?

From the question, parking labor cost is 6% of Parking revenue.

6% = Parking Labor cost/ Parking Revenue------------------------------------ (1)

Further substituting in (1) gives:

6/100 = 18,000/ Parking Revenue

Making Parking Revenue the subject of the formula, we have:

Parking Revenue = (100 x 18,000)/6

= $300,000
