Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The consecutive integers iincrease by 1. So the middle integer of an odd number of consecutive integers is their mean. Three is an odd number of integers.

45:3 = 15 ← middle number

15 - 1 = 14 ← the smallest number

15 + 1 = 16 ← the largest number

2 and 5. 1 isn't apart of the list because the definition of a prime number is having 1 and itself as a factor. 1 only has the number 1.

Micah is writing a function that models the height a dolphin reaches when it propels itself from underwater to the surface, leap

stepladder [879]

Answer:

The dolphin will be above the surface of the water for 2 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$ .

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}$

$\Delta = b^{2} - 4ac$

The height of the dolphin after t seconds is given by:

$h(t) = -16t^2 + 96t - 128$

According to Micha's model, how long will the dolphin be above the surface of the water?

It stays above the surface of the water between the first and the second root. Initially, it is below water, when the first time for which $h(t) = 0$ it crosses the surface upwards, and then the second time for which $h(t) = 0$ it crosses the surface downwards.
