D=rt
r=(boatrate+riverrate)=(x+2)mph

d=528ft=528/5280mi=1/10mi
t=1/3hr
remember to keep the same units
so

1/10=(x+2)(1/3)
times both sides by 3
3/10=x+2
minus 2 or 20/10
-17/10=x
-1.7=x
it would be going -1.7mph (means going backwards)

PLEASE HELP!! 100 POINTS!!

Answer:

A. 16 m

B. At t = 2 and t = 6

C. 8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum height is at the vertex

(4,16). So maximum height is 16 m at t = 4

The rocket is at a height of 12m at two distinct times:

At 2 seconds and again at 6 seconds

The rocket is in air when the height is not zero, I.e between t=0 and t=8

8-0 = 8 seconds
