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.

Select the correct answer.<br> What is the domain of the function shown on the graph?
maw [93]

Answer:

B. negative infinity < x < positive infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

When a question asks for the domain of a function, it is asking for all possible x-values, so we can rule out choice A since there are clearly x-values greater than 1. This graph shows arrows pointing left and downward, indicating that the graph continues past what we can see. This tells us that even though the x-values look like they end at -10 and 2, they continue further, so we can also rule out option C and option D. After these eliminations, we are left with choice B, which is a way of writing "All real numbers," and is the domain for <u>all</u> exponential functions, including this one.

lmk if im incorrect about anything, hope this helps :)

LOTS OF POINTS FOR HELLLP
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

y = 3x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope intercept form

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 3x +b

Substitute the point into the equation

6 = 3(-1) +b

6 = -3+b

Add 3 to each side

6+3 = -3+3+b

9 = b

y = 3x+9
