I think the answer is 1.06666666667
Answer:
Either, (9+√69)/6 or (9-√69)/6
Step wise:
3x²-9x+1=0-------------------(i)
comparing equation onw with (ax²+bx+c=0), we get,
a=3, b=-9, c=1
now,
using Quadratic Formula,
(-b±√b²-4ac)/2a=x
{-(-9)±√(-9)²-4.3.1}/2.3=x
(9±√81-12)/6=x
(9±√69)/6=x
Taking +(ve) sign Taking -(ve) sign
(9+√69)/6=0 (9-√69)/6=0
∴(9+√69)/6=0 ∴(9-√69)/6=0
[∵They cannot be further solved]
Check the picture below.
now, the "x" is a constant, the rocket is going up, so "y" is changing and so is the angle, but "x" is always just 15 feet from the observer. That matters because the derivative of a constant is zero.
now, those are the values when the rocket is 30 feet up above.

Is there supposed to be a picture
Answer:
Decrease by 3.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
54,500(1-x) = 52355
x=0.03935... = 3.935% or 3.9%
