A rocket is launched from atop a 105-foot cliff with an initial velocity of 156 ft/s. The height of the rocket above the ground

at time t is given by h = –16t2 + 156t + 105. When will the rocket hit the ground after it is launched? Round to the nearest tenth of a second.

Answer:

The correct option is 4. The rocket will hit the ground after 10.4 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

h=-16t^2+156t+105

Where, h is height of the rocket above the ground at time t.

The rocket will hit the ground, when h=0.

0=-16t^2+156t+105

Using quadratic formula

t=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

t=\frac{-156\pm \sqrt{(156^2-4(-16)(105)}}{2(-16)}

t=-0.632,10.382

The time can  not negative, therefore after 10.382 second the rocket will hit the ground.

10.382\approx 10.4

Therefore the correct option is 4. The rocket will hit the ground after 10.4 s.

H = –16t2 + 156t + 105, when t = t', the time where the rocket hit the ground after it is launched, so 105= –16t'2 + 156t' + 105, so -16t'2 + 156t' = 0 implies t' =0 or -16t'+ 156= 0, equivalent to t'=9.75, so the answer is 
b) <span>9.8 s</span>

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

<h3>y+1 = 3/4(x-1)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of a line, (1, -1) and (5, 2), we are to find the equation of the line in point-slope form.

The point slope form of the equation is generally expressed as;

y -y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point

Get the slope first;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 2-(-1)/5-1

m = 3/4

Substitute any of the point sat=y (1, -1) and m = 3/4 into the point slope form of the equation

y - (-1) = 3/4 (x-1)

y+1 = 3/4(x-1)

Hence the required equation is y+1 = 3/4(x-1)

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Ralph and Bobby both are correct about slope. Because slope for both is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function that has two values of x's between x = −1 and x = 1.

And the average rate of change between x=-1 and x=1 is 0.

We know that x=-1 and x=1 are the points on x-axis.

If we joint x=-1 and x=1 points, we would get a straight line horizontal line on x-axis.

And note, the slope of a horizontal line is 0 always.

So, according to Bobby the graph goes up through a turning point, and then back down that means the point (-1,0) gets horizontally shift by 2 unit at (1,0).

Therefore, rise/run = 0/2, that is also equal to 0.

Therefore, Ralph and Bobby both are correct about slope.

Because slope for both is 0.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

y = -3/7x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

2 - 8 / 7 - (-7)

-6/14

= -3/7

y = -3/7x + b

2 = -3/7(7) + b

2 = -3 + b

5 = b
