The height of an object after it is released can be modeled by the function f (x) = negative 16 t squared v t s, where t is the

number of seconds after the object is released, v is the upward speed in feet per second at release, and s is the starting height in feet. if a quarterback throws a ball from his hand 6 feet in the air at an upward speed of 25 feet per second, how much time does his teammate have to catch the ball?

The amount of time his teammate have to catch the ball is equal to 1.774 seconds.

<u>Given the following function:</u>

  • f(x) = -16t² + vt + s.
  • Displacement, s = 6ft.
  • Velocity, v = 25 ft/s.

<h3>How to calculate the amount of time?</h3>

In order to determine the amount of time his teammate have to catch the ball, we would evaluate the given position-time function as follows:

f(t) = -16t² + 25t + 6.

In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c =0

Where:

a = -16.

b = 25.

c = 6.

Solving the function by using the quadratic formula, we have:

t = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

t = [-25 ± √[(25² - 4(-16)(6))]/2(-16)

t = [25/32 ± (-1/32)√1009]

t = 25/32 ± (-0.993)

t = 0.781 ± 0.993

t = 0.781 + 0.993

Time, t = 1.774 seconds.

Note: We ignored the negative value because time cannot be negative.

Answer:

B, E

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few ways to check for common denominator.

Here is one method

Take the 4 and 10 and see if both numbers will  go into the numbers evenly. If they do, it is a common denominator

<u>Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 10 ?</u>

4 will not go into 10 evenly

10 is not a common denominator.

<u>Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 20?</u>

4 will go into 20 evenly. 20 /4 = 5

10 will go into 20 evenly 20 / 10 =  2

So 20 is a common denominator

<u>Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 24?</u>

4 will go into 24 evenly 24 / 4 = 6

10 will not go into 24 evenly

24 is not a common denominator

<u>Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 32?</u>

4 will go into 32 evenly 32 / 4 = 8

10 will not go into 32 evenly

32 is not a common denominator

<u>Will 4 and 10 divide evenly into 40?</u>

4 will go into 40 evenly 40/4 = 10

10 will go into 40 evenly 40 / 10 = 4

40 is a common denominator
