Answer:

A. the volleyball reached it's maximum height of 3 sec

B. The maximum height of the vollybal was 23 ft

E. The vball was served from a height of 5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -2 (t-3)^2 +23

Given equation is in the form of f(x)= a(x-h)^2 + k

(h,k) is the vertex

Now we compare f(x) with h(t)

h(t) = -2 (t-3)^2 +23

h = 3  and k = 23

Vertex is (3,23)

h=3 . this means the volleyball reaches its maximum height in 3 seconds

k = 23. this means the volleyball reaches the maximum height of 23 ft

When ball reaches the ground the height becomes 0. so plug in 0 for h(t) and solve for t

0= -2 (t-3)^2 +23

Subtract 23 on both sides

-23 = -2(t-3)^2

Divide both sides by -2

\frac{-23}{-2} = (t-3)^2

Take square root on both sides

+-\sqrt{\frac{23}{2}}= t-3

Add 3 on both sides

+-\sqrt{\frac{23}{2}}+3= t

We will get two value for t

t=-0.39  and t= 6.39

So option C is not correct

Given h(t) is a quadratic function not exponential

To find initial height we plug in 0 for x and find out h(0)

h(0) = -2 (0-3)^2 +23 = -2(-3)^2 + 23= -18+ 23= 5

The volleyball was served from a height of 5 ft

A ball is thrown from first base to second base and then from second base to home plate. How many feet has the ball been thrown?
RSB [31]

Answer:

B. 90 + 90 √2

Step-by-step explanation:

From first base to the second base, it will travel 90 feet.

From the second base to the home plate, it will travel a longer distance.  How much?  Well, if you look at the layout of the field, you'll see that if you draw a line from second base to the home plate, you'll form two rectangular triangles, one with the 1st base, another one with the 3rd base.

The line from the 2nd base to home plate is the hypotenuse, which we can easily find by:

h²=90² + 90²

h = √(2 * 90²)

h = 90 √2

So, from second base to home plate, the ball has traveled 90 √2

Overall: 90 + 90 √2

Help please!!!!!!!!!!!!
iragen [17]

Answer:

When you fill in the blanks you get ($0.25*x)+(0.1*y)+(0.05*z). When you evaluate it you get $1.35, which is the total amount of change in her pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the numbers that are given in the equation are values of the coins (ex: a quarter is worth $0.25) and the variables are the different coins. Multiply the quantity of each coin (that's the variable) by its value then add them together. Finally, plug in the numbers it gives you for x, y, and z.
