In this problem, we don't need to come up with an equation anymore because it is already given. The speed and the length of the platform is already incorporated in the equation:

f(t) = 16t² +32t + 4

Now, we apply the concepts learned in Calculus. To find the maxima or minima of the function, you find the first derivative of the equation and equate it to zero. Using the formulas essential in differentiation, the derived form is

f'(t) = -32t + 32 = 0

Simplifying the equation:

-32(t-1) = 0
t - 1 = 0
t = 1

Since f(t) represents the distance, let's substitute t=-1 to the original equation to determine the maximum height:

f(-1) = -16(1)² +32(1) + 4 = 20 


That means that the maximum height is 20 feet.

solong [7]

Answer:

Angle A = 53

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles add up to 180 so...

Lets use x to describe angle A

100+27+x=180

127+x=180

x=53

I'm confused what its asking about b and c but hope this helps a bit :)

OK my paper says the numerical expression 5+12 represent the sum of 5 and 12. I don't understand
Afina-wow [57]
That literally means the numbers '5' and '12' written like this: 5 + 12

represent the sum of 5 and 12, which is the same as 5 + 12 (because the sum is when all the numbers are added up).

So it's saying 5 + 12 equals to 17. 

Do you get it?
