0 = –16t2 + 122t + 99; 8.4 s

should be the right answer!!

Remember that c is the initial height. Since we the rocket is in a 99-foot cliff, c=99. Also, we know that the velocity of the rocket is 122 ft/s; therefore v=122
Lets replace the values into the the vertical motion formula to get:
0=-16 t^{2} +122t+99
Notice that the rocket hits the ground at the bottom of the cliff, which means that the final height is 99-foot bellow its original position; therefore, our final height will be h=-99
Lets replace this into our equation to get:
-99=-16 t^{2} +122t+99
-16 t^{2} +122+198=0

Now we can apply the quadratic formula t= \frac{-b+or- \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} where a=-16, b=122, and c=198
t= \frac{-122+or- \sqrt{ 122^{2}-(4)(-16)(198) } }{(2)(-16)}
t= \frac{-122+ \sqrt{27556} }{-32} or t= \frac{-122- \sqrt{27556} }{-32}
t= \frac{-122+166}{-32} or t= \frac{-122-166}{-32}
t= \frac{-11}{8} or t=9

Since the time can't be negative, we can conclude that the rocket hits the ground after 9 seconds.

Robbie was given $80 to spend at the Fair. His admission to the park costs $15.50 and each ride cost $5. He anticipates the cost
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

7 or 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Robbie was given $80.

His admission costs $15.50

80 - 15.50 = $64.50

He anticipates the cost of food at the fair will be $25.

64.50 - 25 = $39.50

What is the maximum number of rides he can take at the Fair?

(Total $ after admission and cost of food/ ride cost)

$39.50 / $5 = 7.9

How do I solve this problem?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

10100

Step-by-step explanation:

Use this formula,

\frac{n}{2} (2 {a} + d(n - 1)

where n is the amount of even intergers, a is the starting term, d is the common difference.

  • the amount of even intergers from 2 to 200 is 100
  • The starting number is 2
  • The common difference is 2

\frac{100}{2} (4 + 2(99)

50(4 + 198)

50(202)

10100
