A model rocket is launched from the ground with an initial velocity of 120 feet per second. The height of an object h, in feet,

after t seconds, with initial velocity v0 and initial height h0 is given by h(t)=−16t2+v0t+h0 . What is the approximate maximum height the rocket reaches?

Answer:

The rocket will reach a maximum height of 225 feet from the ground in 3.75 seconds.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Initial velocity = v_0 = 120 feet per second

Initial heigth = h_0

h(t) = -16t^2 + v_0t + h_0

h(t) is a function of t that gives height of the rocket at time t, initial velocity v_0. intial height h_0.

Differentiating h(t) with respect to t, we get:

\displaysttyle\frac{d(h(t))}{dt} = -32t + v_0

Equating the first derivative to zero,

-32t + v_0 = 0\\-32t = -120 \\t = \displaystyle\frac{120}{32} = 3.75

Again differentiating, h(t) with respect to t,

\displaysttyle\frac{d^2(h(t))}{dt^2} = -32 < 0

Hence, h(t) will have a local maxima by double derivative test.

Maximum height attained by rocket =

h(\displaystyle\frac{120}{32}) = -16\times \frac{120}{32}\times \frac{120}{32} + 120\times \frac{120}{32} + 0 = 225 \text{ feet}

Hence, the rocket will reach a maximum height of 225 feet from the ground in 3.75 seconds.

Write the equation if the line that passes through (4,5) and has a slope of m=3
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>point-slope formula</em> for a straight line is

y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)

x₁ = 4; y₁ = 5; m = 3     Substitute the values

y – 5 = 3(x - 4)             Remove parentheses

y – 5 = 3x - 12             Add 5 to each side

     y = 3x - 7

The graph is a straight line with a y-intercept at y = -7 and a slope = 12/4 = 3.

The city of Anville is currently home to 16000 people, and the population has been growing at a continuous rate of 4% per year.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer

After 13.15 years the population of both towns will become equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population of the city Anville is given by using the compound interest formula  

The formula of compound interest

A = p( 1+r/n)^n*t

using this we get

P1 = 16000 (1 +\frac{0.04}{1}) ^1*t

Population of the city of Brinker will be

P2 = 11000( 1  + \frac{0.07}{1}) ^1*t

now to make equal population in both towns

P1=P2

16000 (1 +\frac{0.04}{1}) ^1*t = 11000( 1  + \frac{0.07}{1}) ^1*t

(\frac{1.04}{1.07} )^t = \frac{11}{16}

t = 13.15 years

What is the area of circle with a radius of 13 milimeters? use 3.14 for pi
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

530.66 mm²

5.3066 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A = π·r²

= 3.14×(13mm)²

= 3.14×169mm²

= 530.66 mm²

= 5.3066 cm²
