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.

Ricardo took the following steps to simplify the expression below but was surprised to hear that his answer was incorrect. Which
Xelga [282]

You have not given us any of the steps that Ricardo took to simplify the
expression, and you also haven't given us the list of choices that includes
the description of his mistake, so you're batting O for two so far. 
Other than those minor details, the question is intriguing, and it certainly
draws me in.

If Ricardo made a mistake in simplifying that expression, I'm going to say that
it was most likely in the process of removing the parentheses in the middle. 

Now you understand that this is all guess-work, because of all the stuff that you
left out when you copied the question, but I think he probably forgot that the  3x 
operates on everything inside the parentheses.

He probably wrote that  3x (x-3)  is

either    3x² - 3
     or       x - 9x .

In reality, when properly simplified,

       3x (x - 3)  =  3x² - 9x .
