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}

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

  1. So you know that the height that is visible above x=0 is 74.98 m
  2. From x=0 below it has a total height of 518.16m to the sea floor

That tells us that we have two parts account for

  1. 74.98+518.16m = 593.14 m

Elden [556K]

Answer: Even

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the ones place of each number, which in this case is 8 and 6.

8 + 6 = 14, which is an even number. This makes the sum of both numbers also an even number.
