Part A:

Given that t<span>he height of a batted ball is modeled by the function h=-0.01x^2+1.22x+3, where x is the horizontal distance in feet from the point of impact with the bat, and h is the height of the ball in feet.

At maximum height,

\frac{dh}{dx} =0

\frac{dh}{dt} =0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow-0.02x+1.22=0 \\  \\ \Rightarrow0.02x=1.22 \\  \\ \Rightarrow x= \frac{1.22}{0.02} =61

Thus, the maximum height occurs when x = 61 feet and the maximum height is given by

h=-0.01(61)^2+1.22(61)+3 \\  \\ =-0.01(3,721)+74.42+3=-37.21+77.42 \\  \\ =40.21

Therefore, the maximum height is 40.21 feet.

UPS charges 7$ for the first pound, and $0.20 for each additional pound.FedEx charges 5$ for the first pound and $0.30 for each
In-s [12.5K]

It will take 21 pounds for UPS and FedEx to cost the same

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two options

1. UPS charges 7$ for the first pound, and $0.20 for each

   additional pound

2. FedEx charges 5$ for the first pound and $0.30 for each

    additional pound

We need to find for how many pounds "p" it will take for UPS and

FedEx to cost the same

∵ P is the number of pounds

∴ The number of pounds after the first pound = p - 1

In UPS

∵ The cost of the first pound is $7

∵ The cost of each additional pound is $0.2

∴ The cost in UPS = 7 + 0.2(p - 1)

- Simplify it

∴ The cost in UPS = 7 + 0.2(p) + 0.2(-1)

∴ The cost in UPS = 7 + 0.2p - 0.2

∴ The cost in UPS = 0.2p + 6.8 ⇒ (1)

In FedEX

∵ The cost of the first pound is $5

∵ The cost of each additional pound is $0.3

∴ The cost in FedEX = 5 + 0.3(p - 1)

- Simplify it

∴ The cost in FedEX = 5 + 0.3(p) + 0.3(-1)

∴ The cost in FedEX = 5 + 0.3p - 0.3

∴ The cost in FedEX = 0.3p + 4.7 ⇒ (2)

Equate (1) and (2) ⇒ the costs of the two options

∵ 0.2p + 6.8 = 0.3p + 4.7

- Subtract 0.2p from both sides

∴ 6.8 = 0.1p + 4.7

- Subtract 4.7 from both sides

∴ 2.1 = 0.1p

- Divide both sides by 0.1

∴ p = 21 pounds

It will take 21 pounds for UPS and FedEx to cost the same

How to combine like terms
aev [14]

Example: 1x+2y+3z+4a+5x+6y+7z+8+9

We can see that there is more than one number with the variable x, therefore, we say they're ''like terms'' and because of that they can be summed. We do this with all of the other numbers with similar variables. If no numbers with similar variables are left, like 4a, you don't do anything but write them as they are. You can also see that 8 and 9 can also be summed because neither of them has a variable, therefore they're similar.

In this step, you just do the operation with the numbers and keep the same variable.

(1x+5x)+(2y+6y)+(3z+7z)+4a+(8+9)

(6x)+(8y)+(10z)+4a+(17)

since there are not more numbers similar in variables, this operation is done.

6x+8y+10z+4a+17
