Answer:

93 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first find the time it takes to reach the maximum height. We can do this by differentiating the height function to get velocity:

dh(t)/dt = v(t) = -32t + 72

The maximum height will occur when the velocity becomes 0. Therefore, the time it takes to reach maximum height is:

0 = -32t + 72

32t = 72

t = 72/32 = 2.25 seconds

Therefore, the maximum height of the pumpkin is:

h(2.25) = -16(2.25)^2 + 72(2.25) + 12

h(2.25) = -81 + 162 + 12

h = 93 feet

A square has a perimeter of 36x - 12. Which expression represents one side of the<br> square?
valina [46]

Answer:

9x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

A square has 4 sides.

We can factor out 4 from the expression to find the value of one side.

Factor:

  • 36x - 12
  • 4(9x) - 4(3)
  • 4(9x - 3)

This means that each side of the square is 9x - 3 units long.

You are traveling in a car. Your speed is 40 miles per hour. What is your speed in feet per minute?
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

3520.176 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must convert 40 miles per hour (mph) to miles per minute (mpm):

40 mph = 40 miles/hour / 60 minutes/hour = 0.6667 miles per minute

Next, we convert miles per minute to feet per minute by multiplying 5280 ft per mile:

0.6667 mpm = 0.6667 miles/minute * 5280 ft/mile = 3520.176 feet per minute
