Answer:
a. 144 ft
b. 5 s
Step-by-step explanation:
h = -16t² + 64t + 80
a. This is a parabola, so the maximum height is at the vertex.
t = -64 / (2 × -16)
t = 2
h = -16(2)² + 64(2) + 80
h = 144
The apple reaches a maximum height of 144 ft.
b. 0 = -16t² + 64t + 80
0 = t² − 4t − 5
0 = (t + 1) (t − 5)
t = -1 or 5
t must be positive, so it takes 5 seconds to reach the ground.
Answer:
because it will bounce high and hit something.
Step-by-step explanation:
14 = 31.7 - 3x
-17.7 = -3x <---- I subtracted 31.7 from both sides
5.9 = x <---- I divided both sides by -3
3x=1x+5
ummm are the red circles a plus or minus ??
The vertex of the parabola is at (5,3) and its focal length is 8/4 = 2.
Since it opens to the right, the directrix will be a vertical line 2 units to the left of the vertex, so its equation will be x=(5-2), or x=3
