Some fireworks are fired vertically into the air from the ground at an initial velocity of 80 feet per second. This motion can b

e modeled by the quadratic equation s(t) = -16t^2 + 80t. If a problem asks you to find how high the firework can go (this is the point where it explodes), what are they asking you for? (a) x coordinate of the vertex (b) y coordinate of the vertex (C) x coordinate of the roots (d) y coordinate of the roots

We are to know the highest point of the fireworks.

If we graph the quadratic, we will have a parabola with a maximum.

We basically want the maximum point. This occurs at the vertex.

• The x-coordinate of the vertex is at what time the maximum point occurs.

,

• The y-coordinate of the vertex is the exact height (max).

Thus, when we are asked to find <em>how high the firework can go</em>, we will find the y-coordinate of the vertex.

Answer(b) y coordinate of the vertex

Joe paid 14.00 for a board game this is 70% off the original price what is the original price?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Joe paid 14.00 for a board game this is 70% of the original price what is the original price.

Let the original price of board game be x.

x\times \frac{70}{100}=14

x\times \frac{7}{10}=14

Multiply both sides by 10.

7x=140

Divide both sides by 7.

x=20

The original price is 20. Therefore the correct option is B.

Kevin is 3 years older than brendon two years ago Kevin was 4 times as old as brendon . How old is Kevin now
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

  Kevin is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k represent Kevin's age now. Then Brendon's age now is (k-3). Two years ago the relationship of their ages was ...

  k-2 = 4((k-3) -2)

  k -2 = 4k -20 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  3k = 18 . . . . . . . . . . add 20-k

  k = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

Kevin is 6 now.
