A soccer ball is kicked from 3 feet above the ground. the height,h, in feet of the ball after t seconds is given by the function

h=-16t^2+64t+3
find the time it takes for the ball to return back to ground level.

find the maximum height rescued by the ball.

Here's our equation.

h=-16t+64t+3

We want to find out when it returns to ground level (h = 0)

To find this out, we can plug in 0 and solve for t.

0 = -16t+64t+3 \\ 16t-64t-3=0 \\ use\ the\ quadratic\ formula\ \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}  \\ \frac{-(-64)\±\sqrt{(-64)^2-4(16)(-3)}}{2*16}  = \frac{64\±\sqrt{4096+192}}{32}

= \frac{64\±\sqrt{4288}}{32} = \frac{64\±8\sqrt{67}}{32} = \frac{8\±\sqrt{67}}{4} = \boxed{\frac{8+\sqrt{67}}{4}\ or\ 2-\frac{\sqrt{67}}{4}}

So the ball will return to the ground at the positive value of \boxed{\frac{8+\sqrt{67}}{4}} seconds.

What about the vertex? Simple! Since all parabolas are symmetrical, we can just take the average between our two answers from above to find t at the vertex and then plug it in to find h!

\frac{1}2(\frac{8+\sqrt{67}}{4}+2-\frac{\sqrt{67}}{4}) = \frac{1}2(2+\frac{\sqrt{67}}{4}+2-\frac{\sqrt{67}}{4}) = \frac{1}2(4) = 2

h=-16t^2+64t+3 \\ h=-16(2)^2+64(2)+3 \\ \boxed{h=67}

A line passes through the point (-8,9) and has a slope of 5/4.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  \frac{5}{4} x + 19 \\</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line when given the slope and a point we use the formula

y -  y_1 = m(x -  x_1)

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is (-8,9) and slope 5/4

The equation of the line is

y - 9 =  \frac{5}{4} (x + 8) \\  y - 9 =  \frac{5}{4} x + 10 \\ y =  \frac{5}{4} x + 10 + 9

We have the final answer as

y =  \frac{5}{4} x + 19 \\

Hope this helps you
