Using the vertex of the quadratic equation, it is found that:

The rocket will reach its peak height of 345 meters above sea level at 6.53 seconds.

<h3>What is the vertex of a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The vertex is given by:

(x_v, y_v)

In which:

x_v = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_v = -\frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a}

Considering the coefficient a, we have that:

  • If a < 0, the vertex is a maximum point.
  • If a > 0, the vertex is a minimum point.

In this problem, the equation is given by:

h(t) = -4.9t² + 64t + 136.

The coefficients are a = -4.9 < 0, b = 64, c = 136, hence the instant of the maximum height is given by, in seconds:

t_v = -\frac{64}{2(-4.9)} = 6.53

Two ships leave the same port at the same time. Two hours later ship A has traveled 12 miles and ship B has traveled 8 miles.
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

the angle between their paths is <em>100.8°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, you can construct a triangle, just like the one in the figure.

We will use the <em>Cosine Rule</em> which is:

c² = b² + a² - 2 b c cos(θ)

where

  • c = 16 miles
  • b = 8 miles
  • a = 12 miles

Therefore,

2 b c cos(θ) = b² + a² - c²

cos(θ) = (b² + a² - c²) / 2 b c

θ = cos⁻¹( (b² + a² - c²) / (2 b c) )

θ = cos⁻¹( (8² + 12² - 16²) / 2(8)(16) )

<em>θ = 100.8°</em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the angle between their paths is <em>100.8°</em>
