Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 34P
A research group is using a drop test to measure the force of attenuation of a helmet liner they designed to reduce the occurrence of brain injuries for soldiers and athletes. The helmet attached to a weight is propelled downward with an initial velocity vi of 3 m/s from an initial height of 30 m. The behaviour of the falling helmet is characterized by a
(a) Write the quadratic equation for time when the helmet and weight hit the ground. i.e.,
(b) Solve the quadratic equation for t obtained in part (a) by completing the square, and the quadratic formula.

Chicken has 10 grams of protein and 5 grams of fat per ounce, and grain has 2 grams of protein and 2 grams of fat per ounce. A bag of dog food must contain at least 222 grams of protein and at least 162 grams of fat. If chicken costs 11¢ per ounce and grain costs 1¢ per ounce, how many ounces of each should Ruff use in each bag of dog food to minimize cost?

Remember that: A matrix is in row echelon form if Any row that consists only of zeros is at the bottom of the matrix. The first non-zero entry in each other row is 1. This entry is called aleading 1. The leading 1 of each row, after the first row, lies to the right of the leading 1 of the previous row.arrow_forward
