A volleyball player sets the ball in the air, and the height of the ball after t seconds is given in feet by h= -16^2+12t+6. A t

eammate wants to wait until the ball is 8 feet in the air before she spikes it. When should the teammate spike the ball? How many reasonable solutions to this problem are there?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

h=-16t^2+12t+6

The graph of this function is a parabola that opens downwards

The line h(t)=8 intersects this parabola, when

t=0.5,t=0.25

The teammate can spike the ball after 0.25 seconds or 0.5 seconds.

The two solutions are reasonable. When the volleyball is accelerating into the air, it passes a height of 8 after 0.25 seconds.

When the ball is dropping after it attains maximum height, it attains another height of 8 after 0.5 seconds again.

PLEASE HELP ME IM DESPERATE ​
Andrews [41]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{2} x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - \frac{1}{2} , thus

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c , substitute (4, - 5) into the partial equation

- 5 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = - 5 + 2 = - 3

y = - \frac{1}{2} x - 3 ← equation of line

Helpppppppppppppppp ill mark you brainlist write in y=mx+b form
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

  • y\:=\:\frac{-10}{7}x-\frac{45}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

  • (-8, 5)
  • (-1, -5)

Finding the slope

\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-8,\:5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-1,\:-5\right)

m=\frac{-5-5}{-1-\left(-8\right)}

m=-\frac{10}{7}

We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

substituting m = -10/7 and (-8, 5) in the slope-intercept form to determine the y-intercept

5\:=\:\frac{-10}{7}\left(-8\right)+b

\frac{80}{7}+b=5

b=-\frac{45}{7}

now substituting m = -10/7 and b = -45/7 in the slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

y\:=\:\frac{-10}{7}x+\left(-\frac{45}{7}\right)

y\:=\:\frac{-10}{7}x-\frac{45}{7}

Thus, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

  • y\:=\:\frac{-10}{7}x-\frac{45}{7}
