The eqution of height y in terms of the time x is

y=-16x^2+116x+7.

We are asked when the rocket will strike the ground, so that is the same that sayin when will the rocket's height will be zero again, that is, y=0. so we have to solve

-16x^2+116x+7=0.

the solutions of this equations are

x=\frac{-116\pm\sqrt[]{116^2-4(-16)(7)}}{2(-16)}=\mleft\{\begin{aligned}-0.05 \\ 7.3\end{aligned}\mright.

So, the rocket will strike the ground after 7.3 seconds

What is the answer to > solve 4cos (theta/3) -2 = 0, over [0, 4pi)
Vesna [10]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:  

@ =   pi/3 (or 60 degrees) or @ = 7 pi/3 (or 420 degrees)


Discussion:

Let "@' denote the angle "theta". We are asked to find @ in the interval [0, 4 pi)

where

4cos(@) - 2 = 0.                Adding 2 to both sides

4 cos(@) - 2 +2 = 2  =>

4 cos(@) = 2                     Divide both sides by 4

cos(@) = 2/4 = 0.5


This implies that @ =   pi/3 (or 60 degrees) or @ = (pi/3 + 2pi) = 7 pi/3 (or 420 degrees)


Thank you,

MrB
