Answer:

The maximum height of the ball is 256m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of a pathway modelled as pathway can be modeled by h = -16t² + 128t

At maximum height, the velocity of the ball is zero.

velocity = dh/dt

velocity = -32t + 128

Since v = 0 at maximum height

0 = -32t+128

32t = 128

t = 128/32

t = 4seconds

The maximum height can be gotten by substituting t = 4 into the modelled equation.

h = -16t² + 128t

h = -16(4)²+128(4)

h = -16(16)+512

h = -256+512

h = 256m

Answer:

c. Substitute

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph of the function on the left shows the parabola touches the x-axis at x = -8/3. That is, the vertex is on the x-axis. It crosses the y-axis at y = 64.

<h3>Show a value is a root</h3>

A given solution to an equation can be verified by substituting that value into the equation an showing the result is a <em>true statement</em>. Here, the value x=-8/3 is a root of the given equation because that value makes the equation true.

$9\left(-\dfrac{8}{3}\right)^2+48\left(-\dfrac{8}{3}\right)+64=0\\\\9\left(\dfrac{64}{9}\right)-\left(\dfrac{48\cdot8}{3}\right)+64=0\\\\64-\dfrac{3\cdot2\cdot8\cdot8}{3}+64=0\\\\64-2\cdot64+64=0\\\\0=0\qquad\text{True}$
