Correct option:

d. 1.64

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

An object is launched vertically upward from a 25 foot platform and is modeled by the following function:

s(t)=-16t^2+11t+25

So this is the equation of a parabola because the object is a projectile so it follows the Projectile Motion.

The object fall back to the ground when s(t)=0 so:

-16t^2+11t+25=0 \\ \\ \\ Using \ quadratic \ formula: \\ \\ t_{12}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ \\ a=-16 \\ \\ b=11 \\ \\ c=25 \\ \\ \\ t_{12}=\frac{-11\pm \sqrt{11^2-4(-16)(25)}}{2(-16)} \\ \\ t_{12}=\frac{-11\pm 41.48}{-32} \\ \\ t_{1}=\frac{-11+ 41.48}{-32}=-0.95s \\ \\ t_{2}=\frac{-11- 41.48}{-32}=1.64s

Since time can't be negative, we only choose the positive value. therefore:

<em>The object fall back to the ground after 1.64 seconds</em>

What is the ratio AC: CB?​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

D. 1 : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A(-6, -2),

B(6, 7),

C(-2, 1)

Required:

Ratio of AC : CB

SOLUTION:

Find AC:

AC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

A(-6, -2) = (x_1, y_1)

C(-2, 1) = (x_2, y_2)

AC = \sqrt{(-2 -(-6))^2 + (1 -(-2))^2}

AC = \sqrt{(4)^2 + (3)^2}

AC = \sqrt{16 + 9} = \sqrt{25}

AC = 5

Find CB:

CB = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

C(-2, 1) = (x_1, y_1)

B(6, 7) = (x_2, y_2)

CB = \sqrt{(6 -(-2))^2 + (7 - 1)^2}

CB = \sqrt{(8)^2 + (6)^2}

CB = \sqrt{64 + 36} = \sqrt{100}

CB = 10

Find AC : CB

AC : CB = 5 : 10 = 1 : 2
