Point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where slope=m
and (x1,y1) is a given point

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(6-7)/(-8-(-5))=-1/(-8+5)=-1/-3=1/3

pick any point
(x,y)
(-5,7)

y-7=1/3(x+5) or
y-6=1/3(x+8)

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, as a function of time is given by h ( t ) = − 4.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

\displaystyle 1)48.2    \:  \: \text{sec}

\rm \displaystyle  2)3021.6 \: m

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Question-1:</h3>

so when <u>flash down</u><u> </u>occurs the rocket will be in the ground in other words the elevation(height) from ground level will be 0 therefore,

to figure out the time of flash down we can set h(t) to 0 by doing so we obtain:

\displaystyle  - 4.9 {t}^{2}  + 229t + 346 = 0

to solve the equation can consider the quadratic formula given by

\displaystyle x =  \frac{ - b \pm  \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4 ac} }{2a}

so let our a,b and c be -4.9,229 and 346 Thus substitute:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - (229) \pm  \sqrt{ {229}^{2} - 4.( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}

remove parentheses:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ {229}^{2} - 4.( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}

simplify square:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ 52441- 4( - 4.9)(346)} }{2.( - 4.9)}

simplify multiplication:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ 52441- 6781.6} }{ - 9.8}

simplify Substraction:

\rm\displaystyle t =  \frac{ - 229 \pm  \sqrt{ 45659.4} }{ - 9.8}

by simplifying we acquire:

\displaystyle t = 48.2  \:  \:  \: \text{and} \quad  - 1.5

since time can't be negative

\displaystyle t = 48.2

hence,

at <u>4</u><u>8</u><u>.</u><u>2</u><u> </u>seconds splashdown occurs

<h3>Question-2:</h3>

to figure out the maximum height we have to figure out the maximum Time first in that case the following formula can be considered

\displaystyle x _{  \text{max}} =  \frac{ - b}{2a}

let a and b be -4.9 and 229 respectively thus substitute:

\displaystyle t _{  \text{max}} =  \frac{ - 229}{2( - 4.9)}

simplify which yields:

\displaystyle t _{  \text{max}} =  23.4

now plug in the maximum t to the function:

\rm \displaystyle  h(23.4)- 4.9 {(23.4)}^{2}  + 229(23.4)+ 346

simplify:

\rm \displaystyle  h(23.4)  =  3021.6

hence,

about <u>3</u><u>0</u><u>2</u><u>1</u><u>.</u><u>6</u><u> </u>meters high above sea-level the rocket gets at its peak?

Use the model to solve for x. A) x = 1 B) x = 3 C) x = 5 D) x =
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

<h3>            D){?}    x = 7</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3•(+1) = 2•x + 4•(-1)

x + 3  =  2x - 4

  -3         -3

 x  =  2x - 7

-2x      -2x

- x  =  -7

÷(-1)     ÷(-1)

  x = 7
