A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 20 feet per second. Its height, h, in feet after t seconds is given by

the function h of t equals negative 16t squared plus 20t plus 2 . How long does it take the ball to reach its maximum height? What is the ball’s maximum height? Round to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.

<span>height of the ball = h(t) = -16t2 + 20t + 2 The maximum value for h(t) will occur when t = -20/2(-16) = 5/8 It will take 5/8 of a second, or 0.625 seconds, for the ball to reach its maximum height. To find the ball's maximum height, plug in 5/8 for t . h( 5/8 ) = -16( 5/8 )2 + 20( 5/8 ) + 2 h( 5/8 ) = -16( 25/64 ) + 50/4 + 2 h( 5/8 ) = -25/4 + 50/4 + 8/4 h( 5/8 ) = 33/4 The maximum height is 33/4 feet, or 8.25 feet.</span>

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount
faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />

The dimensions of a rectangle can be given by x+9 and x-2. If the area is 60ft^2, what is the value of X?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 9) * (x - 2) = 60

x^2 - 2x + 9x - 18 = 60

x^2 + 7x - 18 = 60

x^2 + 7x = 78

FACTORING:

x(x + 7) = 78

x = 6

Find the explicit formula for the given sequence 1/4, 3/4, 5/4, 7/4​
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

d=(3/4)-(1/4)=(5/4)-(3/4)=(7/4)-(5/4)=1/2

then it is an arithmetic sequence

by using this equation :

a(n) = a1 +(n-1)d

and we have : a1=(1/4),  d=(1/2)

So:

Explicit formula: a(n) = (1/4) +(n-1)*(1/2)
