A water balloon is tossed into the air with an upward velocity of 40 ft/sits height h(t) in ft after t seconds is given by the f

unction h(t) =-46t^2+40t+3
a. After how many seconds will the balloon be at the highest point above the ground?

B. What will the height be at T = 2 seconds?

h(t) = -46t² + 40t + 3

We can think this graph by t being the x-axis and h being y-axis

So we want the maximum value to y.

We know by math that the vertex of a parabola is (-b/2a, -Δ/4a)

So the y value of the vertex is -Δ/4a

Let's calculate:

Δ = b² - 4.a.c

Δ = 40² - 4.(-46).3

Δ = 2152

Yvertex = -2152/4.(-46)

Yvertex = 2152/184

Yvertex = 269/23

Now we have the value of y we need to equal it to the equation

269/23 = -46t² + 40t + 3

-46t² + 40t + 3 - 269/23 = 0

-46t² + 40t - 200/23 = 0

Δ = b² - 4.a.c  

Δ = 40² - 4 . -46 . (-200/23)  

Δ = 1600 - 4. -46 . (-200/23)  

Δ = 0

There's 1 real root.

In this case, x' = x'':

x = (-b +- √Δ)/2a

x' = (-40 + √0)/2.-46    

x'' = (-40 - √0)/2.-46

x' = -40 / -92    

x'' = -40 / -92

x' = 0,43478260869565216    

x'' = 0,43478260869565216

So, after approximately 0,4348 seconds the balloon will reach the highest point.

B) height after 2 seconds

h(2) = -46.2² + 40.2 + 3

h(2) = -46.4 + 80 + 3

h(2) = -184 + 83

h(2) = -101

Not sure how it's possible but it would be -101.

19. What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (24,9) and 1/8
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

y=1/8x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-9=1/8(x-24)

y=1/8x-24/8+9

y=1/8x-3+9

y=1/8x+6

the boundary of a rectangular farm field in ireland has a straight rock wall along one side and fences along its other three sid
Inessa [10]

Answer:

781250 ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y is the length of the farm field

Let x is the width of the farm field

Given that, no fencing is necessary along the rock wall, so we can find the perimeter of the farm is:

2x + y = 2500 feet

<=> y = 2500 -2x

The are of the farm has the following formula:

A = x*y

<=> A = x(2500 - 2x)

<=> A = 2500x -2x^{2}

To have  the maximum area of field in square feet, we need to use differentials to estimate:

\frac{dA}{dx} = 2500 - 4x

Set \frac{dA}{dx} = 0, we have:

2500 - 4x  = 0

<=> x = 625 feet.

=> y = 2500 - 2*625 = 1250 feet

So the maximum area of field is:

A = x*y = 625*1250 = 781250 ft^{2}
