Question 1058493: Write the English phrase as an algebraic expression. Then simplify the expression.
The time T(x) (in seconds) for a pendulum to make one complete swing back and forth is approximated by
T(x)= 2π(√x/32)
where x is the length of the pendulum in feet.
Determine the exact time required for one swing for a pendulum that is 1 ft long. Then approximate the time to the nearest hundredth of a second.
