Answer:

a)  initial height = 0 m

b)  8 s

c)  vertex = (4, 32)

    maximum height = 32 m

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given equation</u>:

h=-2t^2+16t

where:

  • h is the height of the arrow about the ground (in metres)
  • t is the time (in seconds)

<h3><u>Part (a)</u></h3>

The initial height of the arrow will be at the beginning of its journey, so when t = 0

Substitute t = 0 into the equation and solve for h:

\implies h=-2(0)^2+16(0)

\implies h=0

Therefore, the initial height of the arrow is 0 m.

<h3><u>Part (b)</u></h3>

The arrow will hit the ground when the height is 0 m.

Substitute h = 0 into the given equation:

\implies -2t^2+16t=0

Factor out -2t:

\implies -2t(t-8)=0

Therefore:

\implies -2t=0 \implies t=0

And:

\implies t-8=0 \implies t=8

Therefore, the arrow will hit the ground at 8 seconds.

<h3><u>Part (c)</u></h3>

The vertex is the <u>turning point</u> of a parabola - it's minimum or maximum point.

As the leading coefficient for the given equation is <u>negative</u>, the parabola <u>opens downwards</u> and so its <u>vertex</u> is its <u>maximum point</u>.

There are different ways to find the vertex of a parabola. The easiest way to find the x-coordinate is by calculating the midpoint of the x-intercepts.

We have determined that the arrow has a height of 0 m at 0 seconds and 8 seconds.  Therefore, t = 0 and t = 8 are the x-intercepts.  The midpoint is halfway between zero and 8, so the midpoint is t = 4

To find the y-coordinate, substitute t = 4 into the equation and solve for h:

\implies h=-2(4)^2+16(4)

\implies h=-32+64

\implies h=32

Therefore, the coordinates of the vertex are (4, 32)

The maximum height is the y-coordinate of the vertex.

Therefore, the maximum height is 32 m

What is an interval scale and what is it used for?
koban [17]
An interval scale has measurements where the difference between values is meaningful. For example, the year 0 doesn’t imply that time didn’t exist. And similarly, a temperature of zero doesn’t mean that temperature doesn’t exist at that point. Arbitrary zeros (and the inability to calculate ratios because of it) are one reason why the ratio scale — which does have meaningful zeros — is sometimes preferred.

Find the area of this circle. Use 3.14 for pi
aalyn [17]
The area of a circle is given by the formula:

A = \pir^2

Since \pi = 3.14, and r = 6, sub these values into the equation,

A = 3.14 x 6^2
   = 113.04

Hope this helped!

In calendar year 2004, Division A of MegaStore increased its sales from $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion, and Division B increased i
german
A’s increase is 1.8/1.5=6/5; B’s increase is 1/0.6=5/3.
A formula for A is A(t)=1.5(6/5)^t and for B, B(t)=0.6(5/3)^t where t is years since 2004.
When A=B, 1.5(6/5)^t=0.6(5/3)^t.
Taking logs: log1.5+tlog(6/5)=log0.6+tlog(5/3), t(log(5/3)-log(6/5))=log1.5-log0.6.
tlog(25/18)=log2.5, t=log2.5/log(25/18)=2.7893 approx.
This occurs during 2006 around mid-October.
Common sales=1.5(6/5)^2.7893=0.6(5/3)^2.7893=$2.4943 billion.
