The equation that gives the height is h(t) = - 16t^2 + 18t + 5, which is a parabola.


You cand find the maximum height from the vertex of the parabola.


Let's find the vertex. I will complete squares:

Start by extractin common factor -16:

-16t^2 + 18t + 5 = -16 [t^2 - (18/16) t - 5/16]


I will work with the expression inside the square brackets.

t^2 - (18/16)t - 5/16 = t^2 - (9/8) t - 5/16 =


Completing squares: (t - 9/16)^2 - (9 / 16 )^2 - 5/16

(t - 9/16)^2 - 81/ 256 - 5/16 = (t -9/16)^2 - 161/256


Now, include add include the factor -16[ (t- 9/16)^2 + 161/256 ] =

= -16 (t - 9/16)^2 + 161/16

That means that the vertex is 9/16, 161/16

So, the maximum height is 161 / 16 = 10,06, which is lower than the fence.


Answer: She will not make it over the fence.

What is the slope intercept form of y= -2
Mashcka [7]

The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

(m - slope, b - y-intercept)

We have y = -2. It's the slope intercept form where m = 0 and b = -2.

y = -2 → y = 0x - 2

a toy manufacturer has designed a new piece for use in building models. It is a cube with side lengths 7 mm and has a 3 mm in di
Ray Of Light [21]

Given that the cubical piece has side (s) 7 mm, and a cylindrical hole of diameter (d) as 3 mm.

The volume of the piece can be calculated as,

\begin{gathered} \text{Volume of piece}=\text{ Volume of cube}-\text{ Volume of cylinder} \\ V=s^3-\frac{\pi}{4}d^2s \\ V=7^3-\frac{\pi}{4}(3)^2(7) \\ V=343-\frac{63\pi}{4} \\ V\approx293.52mm^3 \\ V\approx293.52\times10^{-9}\text{ }m^3 \end{gathered}

It is mentioned that the material costs $207 per cubic meter, so the cost (c) of 1 piece is calculated as,

\begin{gathered} \text{Cost of 1 piece}=\text{ Cost per unit volume}\times\text{ Volume of 1 piece} \\ c=207\times293.52\times10^{-9} \\ c\approx60758.64\times10^{-9} \end{gathered}

This is the cost (in dollars) for 1 piece.

Given that the manufacturer wants to produce 1,000,000 such pieces, so the total cost (TC) is calculated as,

\begin{gathered} \text{Total Cost}=\text{ Cost per piece}\times\text{ No. of pieces} \\ TC=60758.64\times10^{-9}\times1,000,000 \\ TC=60758.64\times10^{-9}\times10^6 \\ TC=60758.64\times10^{-3} \\ TC=60.75864 \\ TC\approx60.75 \end{gathered}

Thus, the total prototypes will cost around $60.75

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

174 packages of t-shirts    PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIEST

Step-by-step explanation:

139 x 5 = 695 t-shirts are needed

695 ÷ 4 = 173.75

Since you have to purchase whole packages of t-shirts you will need to buy 174 packages of t-shirts.  174 x 4 = 696 t-shirts


174 packages
