Real number are used to explain real situations by allowing you to understand that they will always have an outcome that is disable by another real number
This must be on the moon as the acceleration due to gravity in this equation must be around 1/8 that on earth. :) Anyway...
h=-2t^2+9t+11
A)
dh/dt=-4t+9, when velocity, dh/dt=0, it is the maximum height reached
dh/dt=0 only when 4t=9, t=2.25 seconds
h(2.25)=21.125 ft (21 1/8 ft)
B)
As seen in A), the time of maximum height was 2.25 seconds after the squirrel jumped.
C)
The squirrel reaches the ground when h=0...
0=-2t^2+9t+11
-2t^2-2t+11t+11=0
-2t(t+1)+11(t+1)=0
(-2t+11)(t+1)=0, since t>0 for this problem...
-2t+11=0
-2t=-11
t=5.5 seconds.
I think it is 10 because 18×10=180 but it is close hope this helps
-4 is your answer hope this helps
