A ball is launched at 30 meters per second (m/s) from a 20-meter tall platform. The equation for the object's height s at time t

seconds after launch is s(t) = -4.9t^2 + 30t + 20, where S is in meters.
a. What is the maximum height the ball reaches?


b. At what time does the ball reach its maximum height?


c. At what time does the ball hit the ground?

The maximum height the ball reaches is 65.92 m.

The time taken for the ball to reach the maximum height is 3.06 seconds.

The time taken for the ball to hit the ground is 6.12 seconds.

<h3>maximum height the ball reaches</h3>

The maximum height the ball reaches is calculated as follows;

s(t) = -4.9t² + 30t + 20

at maximum height, final velocity = 0

v = 0

ds/dt = -9.8t + 30 = 0

9.8t = 30

t = 30/9.8

t = 3.06 seconds

s(3.06) = -4.9(3.06)²  + 30(3.06)  + 20

s(3.06) = 65.92 m

Thus, the time taken for the ball to reach the maximum height is 3.06 seconds.

<h3>Time of flight of the ball</h3>

The time taken for the ball to hit is the total time of flight = 2 x 3.06 seconds = 6.12 seconds.

Thus, the maximum height the ball reaches is 65.92 m.

The time taken for the ball to reach the maximum height is 3.06 seconds.

The time taken for the ball to hit the ground is 6.12 seconds.

Me. Silvera bought a can of paint. He used 3/8 of it to paint a fence and 1/4 to paint a table top. He painted a chair with some
LuckyWell [14K]
Well, seeing the information above, he used 5/8 of paint to paint the fence and table top. If he only had 1/8 left of the paint, he used 2/8 on the chair.

I found the 5/8 because I needed a common denominator. I multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to get 2/8. 3/8+2/8=5/8, and then I added 2/8 to the 5/8 that then gave me 7/8 of paint used, and 1/8 of paint left. 

Hope I helped!

A new club sent out 231 coupons to boost sales for next year's memberships. They provided 6 times as many to potential members t
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Number of coupons sent  to Existing members = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of coupons sent out = 231

Let :

6 times as many to potential members = 6 * X = 6X

while existing members = X

therefore 6X + X = 231

                 7X = 231

therefore  X = 231 / 7 = 33

so existing members = 33

while potential members = 6 * 33 = 198

"if f(x)=x+1/x then the set of values for which f increases is"
Anettt [7]
The solution for this problem would be:
f'(x) = 1 - 1/x^2 = (x^2 - 1)/x^2 
is positive where |x| > 1 
hence (-inf, -1) and (1, inf) are the regions in which f' is positive and therefore f is increasing.
Therefore, the answer is (-infinity,-1] U [1,infinity).
