One other way to solve this question is finding the derivative

h=-2x^2+12x-10

h'=-4x+12

now we have to find when this function will be zero

-4x+12=0

\boxed{\boxed{x=3}}

now we just replace this value at our initial function

h=-2x^2+12x-10

h_{max}=-2*(3)^2+12*3-10

h_{max}=-18+36-10

\boxed{\boxed{h_{max}=8}}

The maximum height is the ordinate value of the vertex of the parabola, ie: yV

Calculating yV:

y_V=\frac{-\Delta}{4a}\\
\\
y_V=-[\frac{12^2-4*(-2)*(-10)]}{4*(-2)}=\frac{-(144-80)}{-8}=\frac{-64}{-8}=8

Anettt [7]

Answer:

395.85

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter is 12, then the radius must be 6. Following the formula of pi: 2 * pi * radius, our result is 37.7. 37.7 * 10.50 is 395.85

I really hope this helps. My memory of circles and pi isn't the best.

Ben and winston ade both selling cookie dough for a fundraiser. Although ben has already sold 10tubs, Winston 
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day, Ben (B) starts with 10 tubs and Winston (W) starts with 0 tubs.

After the first day, Ben sells 8 tubs per day while Winston sells 9 tubs per day.

Therefore we can write the following equation:  (Where d = number of days)

B = 10 + 8d

W = 0 + 9d = 9d

We are told that eventually they will sell the same amount which means

B = W

This means we can say,

10 + 8d = 9d

If we subtract 8d from both sides we get

10 = d

Therefore it will take 10 days for them to sell the same amount of cookie dough.
