A rock was thrown from the top of a cliff such that its distance above sea level was given by s(t)= at² + bt + c, where t is the
frutty [35]

Answer:

<h2>a) a = -3, b = 18, c = 48; </h2><h2>s(t) = -3t²+18t+48</h2><h2>b) 48m</h2><h2>c) 8secs</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

'A rock was thrown from the top of a cliff such that its distance above sea level was given by s(t)=at²+bt+c, where t is the time in seconds after the rock was released. After 1 second the rock was 63 m above sea level, after 2 seconds 72 m, and after 7 seconds 27 m. a. Find a, b and c and hence an expression for s(t). b. Find the height of the cliff. c. Find the time taken for the rock to reach sea level.'

Given the equation of the distance modelled as s(t)=at²+bt+c

If after 1 second the rock was 63 m, then 63 = a+b+c

If after 2 seconds, the distance was 72 m then 72 = 4a+2b+c

Also if after 7 seconds, the distance is 27 m, then 27 = 49a+7b+c

i) Solving the 3 equations simultaneously to get a, b and c we have;

a+b+c = 63 ... 1

4a+2b+c = 72 ...2

49a+7b+c = 27 ...3

Subtracting 2 from 1 and 3 from 2 we will generate 2 new equations as shown;

eqn 2- eqn1: 3a + b = 9...4

eqn 3- eqn 2: 45a + 5b = -45

eqn 3- eqn 2: 9a+b = -9 ... 5

solving 4 and 5 simultaneously

3a + b = 9 ...4

9a+b = -9 ... 5  

Taking the difference of 4 and 5 we have

6a - -9-9

6a = -18

a = -3

substituting a = -3 into equation 4 to get b we have;

3(-3)+b = 9

-9 + b = 9

b = 9+9

b = 18

substituting a = -3 and b = 18 into equation 1 to get c we have;

-3+18+c = 63

15+c = 63

c = 48

a = -3, b= 18 and c = 48

The distance function will be s(t) = -3t²+18t+48

ii) If the height of the cliff is modelled by the equation  s(t)=at²+bt+c

The height of the cliff is at when t = 0

s(0) = -3(0)²+18(0)+48

s(0) = 48m

The height of the cliff is 48m

iii) At the sea level, the height of the rock will be 0m, substituting this into the modeled equation for the height to get the time we have;

s(t)=at²+bt+c

0 = -3t²+18t+48

3t²-18t-48 = 0

t² - 6t - 16 =0

t² - 8t+2t - 16 = 0

t(t-8)+2(t-8) = 0

(t+2)(t-8) = 0

t = -2 or 8

Taking the positive value of the time, t = 8secs

Time taken for the rock to reach sea level is 8secs

Please help me!!! I don't understand this at all
Varvara68 [4.7K]
<h2>a) 16y</h2><h2>b) 8y</h2>

a) First, multiply the numbers 8 and 2, and we get 16.

Now, we have to multiply 16 and the algebraic notation “y”, we get the result of 16y.

<h3><u>Whenever you multiply the number(s) with algebraic notations, you need to multiply the number(s) and write the algebraic notation at the end.</u></h3>

<u></u>

b) Multiply the number 8 and the algebraic notation “y”, and we get the result 8y.

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

In planning a restaurant, it is estimated that a profit of $8 per seat will be made if the number of seats is no more than 50 in
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

a. 65  seats

b. $422.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following two functions:

8 * x, {0 <= x <= 50}

x * (8 - 0.1 * (x - 50)), {x> 50}, solving we have:

-0.1 * x ^ 2 + 13 * x, {x> 50}

Now we derive both functions and we are left with:

8, {0 <= x <= 50}

-0.2 * x + 13 {x> 50}

we cannot equal to 0 the first function that is equal to 0, because it would be inconsistent, therefore we equal the second function to 0:

-0.2 * x + 13 = 0

0.2 * x = - 13

x = -13 / -0.2

x = 65

Now, test for increasing and decreasing on the intervals (0.65) and (65, infinity)

p '(60) = -0.2 * (60) + 13 = 1

since this value is positive the profit is increasing on (0.65)

p '(70) = -0.2 * (70) + 13 = -1

becuase this value is negative the profit is decreasing on (65, infinity)

Therefore 65 seats are needed to maximize profit

The maximum value would be:

P (65) = 0.1 * (65 ^ 2) + 13 * 65 = 422.5

That is, the maximum value is $ 422.50
