A baseball player throws a 95mph fastball straight up into the air. The position equation, which gives the height of the ball at

any time t, in seconds, is given by: s(t)=-16t^2+140t+37 a.) find the maximum height of the ball. b.) Find the time and velocity when the ball hits the ground.
I would really appreciate it if someone explained to me how to solve this!

Set s(t) = 0 which means it hits the ground.  The formula doesn't fit the parameters given as it shows that the pitcher is standing on something 37 feet high.
<span>s(t)=-16t^2+140t+37 and has an initial velocity of 140.
Graphing or solving this, t= 9 seconds when it hits the ground.
The velocity V(t) is the derivative of s(t)
V(t) = -32t+140
V(9) = -148 ft/second which is going down

castortr0y [4]

Answer:  In set theory, the union (denoted by ∪) of a collection of sets is the set of all elements in the collection. It is one of the fundamental operations through which sets can be combined and related to each other.

A U B U C = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }

Step-by-step explanation:

A = {1, 2, 5, 7}

B = {3, 4, 6, 7}

C = {0, 5, 8, 9}

A U B U C = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }
