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

Hello,
there are some words that I could not read. But:
I support evements are independants.
p(s)=0.2
p(l)=1-0.2=0.8 l=lose

1)0.8*0.2=0.16

2) 0.8²*0.2=0.128

3) 0.8^3*0.2=0.1024

4) 0.2*0.8^(n-1)

NO LINKS!! Stat whether A and B are independent or dependent. Part 2​
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A). "If you do not study and fail the next test"

  Two statements are combined in the given statement.

  "If you don't study" and "fail the next test"

  Second statement is the consequence of the first statement.

  Therefore, events are dependent.

B). If you select a card from a deck and without replacing it, you select another card.

  Here, selection of a card from a deck without replacing it doesn't affects the selection of another card.

  Therefore, both the events are independent.
