Answer:

  Rocket B reaches a maximum height that is greater than the maximum height of Rocket A.

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph quickly shows the answer to this question.

__

In vertex form, the equation for Rocket A is ...

  y = -6(x² -16x +8²) +6(8²)

  y = -6(x -8)² +384 . . . . . . . . . maximum height is 384 feet

__

The corresponding equation for Rocket B is ...

  y = -4(x² -20x +10²) +4(10²)

  y = -4(x -10)² +400 . . . . . . . . maximum height is 400 feet

Rocket B reaches a maximum height greater than that of Rocket A.

The rabbit population in a certain area is 500% of last years population. There are 900 rabbits this year. How many were there last year?

we know that

900 rabbits represent 500% of last year population

Last year population represent 100%

so

using proportion

Find out how many rabbits represent a percentage of 100%

\frac{900}{500\%}=\frac{x}{100\%}\\\\x=900(100)/500\\\\x=180\ rabbits
