Answer:

- time = 1second

- maximum height = 16m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of a pumpkin t seconds after it is launched from a catapult modelled by the equation

f(t)=-16t²+32t... (1)

The pumpkin reaches its maximum height when the velocity is zero.

Velocity = {d(f(x)}/dt = -32t+32

Since v = 0m/s (at maximum height)

-32t+32 = 0

-32t = -32

t = -32/-32

t = 1sec

The pumpkin reaches its maximum height after 1second.

Maximum height of the pumpkin is gotten by substituting t = 1sec into equation (1)

f(1) = -16(1)²+32(1)

f(1) = -16+32

f(1) = 16m

The maximum height of the pumpkin is 16m

Scott and Nikki each have a full 1.5-gallon container of liquid laundry detergent. The lid on Scott’s container can hold 3 fluid
KatRina [158]
Scott has 16 more lid fulls of detergent than nikki.                                                First you need to convert 1.5 gallons to ounces which is 192. Then divide 192 by 3 and you get 64. Then divide 192 by 4 and you get 48. So then subtract 48 from 64 and you get 16.
