Answer:

Therefore the ball strikes the ground  5.98 s after kick.          

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that , a ball is kicked in the air. The height of the ball can be calculated using the equation h(t)=-16t^2+64t+190    where h is height in feet and t is time in second.

When the ball touches the ground then the height will be zero.

i.e h(t)=0

Therefore

-16t^2+64t+190=0

\Rightarrow -2(8t^2-32t-95)=0

Since -2≠0 then (8t^2-32t-95)=0

(8t^2-32t-95)=0    

[The solution of a quadratic equation ax²+bx+c=0 is

  x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}  here a=8, b=-32 and c=-95]                    

\Rightarrow t =\frac{-(-32)\pm\sqrt{(-32)^2-[4\times8\times(-95)]} }{2\times8}        

\Rightarrow t =\frac{32\pm\sqrt{4064} }{16}    

Therefore   t=  5.98 or -1.98

since time can not be negative So , t=5.98 s

Therefore the ball strikes the ground  5.98 s after kick.

The function f(x) is represented by this table of values.
Darya [45]
The average slope (s) on the interval [a, b] is given by
  s = (f(b) -f(a))/(b -a)

When there are a lot of computations to do, it is convenient to let a machine do them. The intervals and slopes are ...
  [0, 5] : 5
  [-3, 3] : 0
  [-5, 3] : -2
  [-3, 5] : 2
