4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = y= -x²-x+6

When y is max, f'(x) = 0

f'(x) = -2x-1

Equating to 0,

-2x-1= 0

x= -1/2

Put the value of x in f(x)

y = -(-1/2)² -(-1/2) +6

= -1/4+1/2+6

= 6+1/2

y= 13/2

kirill [66]

Answer:

His average speed was of 10.42 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following relation to solve this question:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In which v is the velocity(in m/s), d is the distance(in meters), and t is the time, in seconds.

Usain Bolt of Jamaica set a world record in 2009 for the 200- meter dash with a time of 19.19 seconds.

This means that $d = 200, t = 19.19$

So his average speed was of:

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{200}{19.19} = 10.42$

His average speed was of 10.42 m/s
